The GOP’s Young Hatemonger – The Daily Beast

Turns out that the “let’s laugh at Obama coon jokes” fiasco is by no means the first time “Young” Republican Audra Shay had a racist incident regarding the president.

Nay, here is a history of stupid from the idjut who still will likely be heading the Young Republicans in the really near future.

Stay classy GOP.

Racist And Ridiculous (and Republican) in Tennessee

I completely forgot about this one.

Last month, an email circulated in Republican circles with the following image:

Ha! Ha! Obama is black so you can only see his eyes! HA! I get it!

Racist pricks.

The person who sent the email only apologizes for sending it to “the wrong list”. You know, she accidentally sent it to an average decent American or two instead of the racist Rethug separatists she “pals around with”.

Emptywheel » Tom Coburn and “the Family” Tried to Buy Off Ensign’s Mistress

Republican “family values” lies and the extremist Talibangelical “Family” converge in a sordid plan to buy off Ensign’s mistress for a million bucks. No admission of guilt or proper penance required. Just a check. And Ensign still couldn’t seal the deal.

Apparently the value of 30 pieces of silver have gone up since the first century.

Republicans And Race :: FITSNews

This is a litany of the bizarre racist behavior by just the South Carolina Republicans.

And this is another view on the whole Young Republicans racist Facebook fiasco I mentioned the other day.

Oh, and this is a moronic piece of drivel trying to stand as an excuse by Audra Shay, the women at the center of the spectacle. It’s a conservative site and the comments to this “explanation” gives me hope that maybe, just maybe, the racist core of the GOP can be marginalized some day by these folks.

But that day sure the hell isn’t today.

Pool Boots Kids Who Might “Change the Complexion” | NBC Philadelphia

Hi. This is the 21st Century calling. Could you Republican pricks get with the program?

In Philadelphia, the Valley Swim Club kicked out a summer youth club that didn’t fit the skin shade they were looking for. And this is after the group paid upwards of two grand for the “privilege” of being discriminated against.

A couple key quotes:

“When the minority children got in the pool all of the Caucasian children immediately exited the pool….The pool attendants came and told the black children that they did not allow minorities in the club and needed the children to leave immediately.”

– Horace Grant, parent of one of the children

“There was concern that a lot of kids would change the complexion … and the atmosphere of the club.”

– John Duesler, President of The Valley Swim Club

How would you like to be a parent that hears this racist crap? I’d like to kick a lot of somebody in the tailbone, personally. Oh, and some of the racists at the pool are teachers at those kids school.

UPDATE: The pool/swim club “went bankrupt” in the face of lawsuits. Yeah, right.
