Southern California Republican Party official Circulates Racist E-mail Targeted At President Obama
No matter how often these Republican Teabaggers claim they oppose President Obama for his "policies" or because they believe he is "un-American" nobody is fooled. What they are really saying is that because he is a black man they will neither respect him, nor the office that he holds.

It’s not her first brush with racist rhetoric.

In February 2009, Los Alamitos Mayor Dean Grose, another Orange County Republican, emailed the White House watermelon image and then apologized. While others demanded he step down, Davenport defended him. When a Newport City Councillman voted against installing grass turf near the beach because it would “attract Mexicans”, Schroder claims that she supported him as well.

1. What is it about emails and the fact they can go public
that the Repugs don't get.

5. It was a joke. I have friends who are black. Besides, I only sent it to a few people--
Words fail. She is also looking for “the coward” who supplied the email to the Weekly....

It is a cliche to say someone just "doesn't get it," but she really doesn't.

6. I work with a guy who handed out copies of E-mail jokes
Mostly racist Republican crap,really thought he was funny during Katrina.Funny thing happened about a year ago,we got a little more racially diverse at work and the clown stopped handing them out.
Now for myself I can tell a joke or say anything to anyone without concern for offending anyone of race or gender.
My point is why do these "real Americans" have to whisper or only talk about their beliefs to a select crowd?Are they ashamed of themselves,or are they unwilling to say what they really believe in public.I think the Dem's best case against these people is to make them publicly state their real motives.The public as a whole might not like what they hear.
