Can you believe this? After a 6 day run, the Republican National Committee has finally removed a fan-posted pic from its Facebook page showing President Obama eating fried chicken with the slogan, “Miscegenation Is a CRIME against American values… Repeal Loving v. Virginia.” (EDITOR’S NOTE: For anyone unaware, Loving v. Virginia is a milestone civil rights case that led the Supreme Court to rule that prohibiting interracial marriage violates the Constitution).
The racist photo was posted by the user “Gee Dub, with the following comments:
“Racism is necessary in our capitalistic system. To subject ourselves to the socialist ideal of equality will surely destroy the American way of life. As a black man, racism has served as a great inspiration for me to work harder. God bless the Republican Party and God bless America.”
The picture remained on the RNC’s Facebook site for 6 full days until the liberal blog The Democratic Underground drew attention to the offensive image Sunday evening. By Monday night, the photo was taken down from the site without comment. Although there is no proof the photos were posted by an official of the RNC, it is rather odd they were allowed to remain on the site until public outcry forced the RNC to take them down.
They still can't stand the fact a black man is president. This doesn't surprise me!
