9. Emphasis on "White." Yes, NPR used the figurative term, but get this...
Edited on Tue May-24-11 09:19 AM by kysrsoze
A friend of our was forced by her boss to attend a local Republican shill dinner. All they did was bash Obama and talk about how he makes empty promises. Anyway, one speaker was talking about getting Obama out of office, and he slipped up, saying, "We need to get another white... I MEAN... Republican in the White House."

The whole place was aghast, but it probably was because someone finally came out and admitted the Republican Party is all for white, rich people, and no one else. They're anti-gay, anti-immigrant, anti-non-Christian, anti-low incomers, etc. They truly are looking out for the "White (also straight and wealthy) Knight."

Of course they also had the obligatory Teabagger representative, who just happens to be at a Republican fundraiser and absolutely does NOT represent the base of the Republican Party.
