How Republicans View African-Americans

[RedEarth]

This is in an official Republican Party flier:

The October newsletter by the Chaffey Community Republican Women, Federated says if Obama is elected his image will appear on food stamps -- instead of dollar bills like other presidents. The statement is followed by an illustration of "Obama Bucks" -- a phony $10 bill featuring Obama's face on a donkey's body, labeled "United States Food Stamps."

1. These people bring out the worst in me...an urge to physically harm them.

I do not like this.

[TheDonkey]

2. Pretty hateful and disgusting stuff.

[RadicalTexan]

3. No words.

:puke:

[SoonerPride]

4. I swear I loathe these fuckers

I wish we could pack them and ship them somewhere else.

Australia maybe?

[YOY]

13. Don't do that to Austrailia...

Even if you dropped them off in the Outback 1 in 10 would survive the desert after eating the others and turn into some (even worse) version of the bandits in Mad Max.

[Marsala]

27. Alaska

If Todd gets his way, it won't be part of the Union much longer.

[The Wielding Truth]

5. This is beyond anything I can imagine, Disgusting! Stupid!

:puke:

[KathieG]

6. Blatant racism. Sick.

[billybob537]

7. these are desperate people

who where raised by scum.

[NHDEMFORLIFE]

8. Unstable, delusional fools

But what else can we expect from such slugs of humanity? Remember, these are fools who truly believe the homeless are homeless by choice.

[ipfilter]

9. That looks like something

from a history text book describing the slave era.

[BlueIdaho]

10. Diane Fedele = Racist Trash

She is the towering genius behind this racist filth. She claimed she never intended this to be a racial insult... BULLSHIT!

The republican party will learn a hard lesson from all this garbage - when you lay down with racist dogs - you get up with fleas. By embracing racists in order to win an election they will do long term - possibly irreparable damage to their party's "brand." No more will this be the "party of Lincoln." Now it will be the party of racial hatred and cultural warfare.

I hope they all burn in Hell - and I'd be glad to provide the matches.

11. Any African-American who even THINKS about registering Republican should see this first, horrible nt

22. judging from poll results, AA's aren't the ones needing lectures NT

[Marrah_G]

12. I wrote that sick woman a scathing letter

I hope the publicity has shamed her publically.

[AspenRose]

16. Me too.

Pariah.

[Captain Hilts]

14. No, they view black Democratic candidates that way. Not their own. nt

[elkston]

15. BULLSHIT. Don't even try to use that argument.

They won't say it to the face of their black supporters, but it is what *some* of them think behind closed doors.

So don't even try to let them slide on this.

Don't even fall for that , "Oh, but you're not like the rest of them." line.

They STILL don't want us in their country clubs, courting their daughters, OR in the TOP seat of power.

So please, spare me this bullshit.

[AspenRose]

18. True

I think it's why JC Watts quit politics. He got tired and frustrated with it all.

[Lilyeye]

20. Sooo true.

I remember reading this board sometime ago of people who claimed to have loved Colin Powell. But as soon as he seemed like he was for Obama some of them were calling him every name in the book. They weren't to far from calling him the n word.

[crankychatter]

24. your response tells me why "ignored" is STILL ignored - nt

[CakeGrrl]

30. +1. As Paul Mooney said,

Black Republicans are getting their "Nigger wake-up call."

Sorry, it's a direct quote and he may be too truthful for some to take, but he is spot-on.

[racaulk]

17. The people that create BS like that and perpetuate this blatant racism are beneath contempt.

Disgusting, racist swine, the whole lot of them. :puke:

[Lilyeye]

19. Sickening!!! I hate these dumbass stereotypes.

My friend was telling me that her racist brother (whose not old, but 24 years old) was making comments yesterday like this. He was saying that if Obama won that he would be giving out KFC chicken and welfare checks to all blacks for getting him elected. This must have been the garbage that the dumbass was talking about.

[Catherine Vincent]

21. Idiots. nt

[David__77]

23. Should definitely be publicized in the Black community.

We need maximum mobilization of Black people to win victory. Shit like this certainly helps!!

28. I wonder if Andrew Sullivan is wondering

how much more disgusted he can be with the Republican Party. We know what a joke he thinks Palin is. I know he was just on "Real Time" the other week, but I'd love to see this get some coverage.

[OneGrassRoot]

29. Personally, I think this is awesome. Their sheer ignorance....

is coming to the surface, unabashedly, for all to see.

That is GOOD. As my late dad used to say, "No sense being stupid if you can't show it."
