Did you hear the one about the Republican and the racist joke? Oh you have?
Hillsborough state committeewoman Carol Carter may lose her position because of the racial joke she forwarded in an e-mail. Ready for the bad taste?
I’m confused
How can 2,000,000 blacks get into Washington, DC in 1 day in sub zero temps when 200,000 couldn’t get out of New Orleans in 85 degree temps with four days notice?
Her response is even more frightening:
I have been asked to send this apology for my earlier e-mail. I am sorry that it was received in a negative manner. I do hope that we are going to be allowed to keep our sense of humor.
As you can now see, it went to very few people. I did add Todd Marks in this apology, as he is in the mix now. I am also sorry to learn that some of these persons are not real team players. There really was no reason for this to go beyond those that I e-mailed (8 people). This was not an e-mail blast as I do not have that capability.
Is she really saying It should be okay, because it was sent to only a few people (her private racist cabal?), and that the people who spread it beyond this circle were the ones commiting the wrong? Hm, is she saying she can’t be racist because she can’t send email blasts?
And here is her boss’s response:
“I’m pretty much done with those sorts of inappropriate and, and — I am at a loss for words,” Greer said. “I just came back from Washington, D.C., working to get our first African-American elected as (Republican National Committee) chairman.
He’s just touting his love of the black man because all the cool kids are doing it. The subtext of what he said is that he was working to get a black man elected to head the RNC, instead of the right man.
One other great line:
“That kind of behavior has no place in the modern day Republican Party,” Stokes said.
Seems the modern Republican party didn’t become modern until Nov. 5th, 2008. Funny that.
Finally, a Job Bush can handle. Hardware store greeter
I like the idea of the secret service standing next to the hardware store greeter.Just tickles my fancy.
Libertarians on the stimulus, or why Libertarians don’t get it.
Let’s see, repeal corporate income taxes (so the government has less money, and they can pay larger bonuses), Reduce Social Security and Medicare (so the poor and vulnerable get poorer and more vulnerable), eliminate wasteful spending (like the Republicans did, right?), withdraw from Iraq and Afghanistan (you’re just pandering for votes here), Limit union power (because we need workers with less rights), Renew free trade (because we haven’t lost ALL of our jobs to other countries yet), expand legal immigration (because more people for less jobs is really what we need right now), and stop bailing out businesses (let it all collapse). Kind of sounds like what got us into this whole mess.
Obama Revamps faith based initiatives…
So they aren’t so faith-based anymore. Fox news is panicking.
Good op-ed about how the Republicans are playing politics with the economy and nation suffers
There’s so much common sense in this article, it’ll smack you in the face.
Obama getting aggressive and smart in defending his stimulus package
Now, I read the other day that critics of this plan ridiculed our notion that we should use part of the money to modernize the entire fleet of federal vehicles to take advantage of state of the art fuel efficiency. This is what they call pork. You know the truth. It will not only save the government significant money over time, it will not only create manufacturing jobs for folks who are making these cars, it will set a standard for private industry to match. And so when you hear these attacks deriding something of such obvious importance as this, you have to ask yourself — are these folks serious? Is it any wonder that we haven’t had a real energy policy in this country?
You’re using reason to combat politics? I see what you did there…..
Cheney is still fearmongering
Glad to see he’s out of the wheelchair. He was kinf getting a Dr. Strangelove vibe to him.
Permanent Republican Majority + 8 Years of Bush = Permanent Republican Minority = win
Rove to let the Obama White House determine his Executive Priviledge Status
This is your mastermind? Him? Oh, he’s going down hard.
