  • Republican County Commissioner Says He Isn’t a Racist Because He Has a Black Friend

    County Commisioner Jim Gile - Saline County Kansas

    Here we go again. Another old, white Republican elected official forgets that he's not among his cronies and utters another racist comment on the record. Republican Saline County Commissioner Jim Gile used the term "nigger-rigging" during a commission discussion about hiring an architect to work on a county building. County residents immediately started calling for his resignation which forced Mr. Gile to apologize. The Salina Journal, a local newspaper, reported the incident like this: In…

  • Republican Congressman Used to Hire 50 to 60 "Wetbacks" to Pick Tomatoes

    Racist U.S. Rep. Don Young

    With it's recent "autopsy" and declarations of the necessity to re-brand itself to a more diverse set of voters, the Republican Party is just days into their campaign to put lipstick on their pig. They have no desire to change their positions on any of the policies that lost them the 2012 election, but they do want to stop saying what they think when other people can hear what they are saying. Reince Priebus, Chairman…

  • Trump the Race Card: Are You Sick and Tired of Being Called a Racist and You Know You're Not One

    Scott Terry at CPAC

    CPAC is back! It's my favorite time of year and I'd like to start with a Q&A discussion session titled "Trump the Race Card: Are You Sick and Tired of Being Called a Racist and You Know You're Not One?" What a fantastic title! I'm sure some of my conservative visitors helped come up with that one. True to form, a discussion of how Republicans are tired of being called racists turned into a display…

  • Chairwoman of the Yellowstone County Republicans Exposes Her Racism on Facebook

    Jennifer Olsen Racist Facebook Post

    Jennifer Olsen, chairwoman of the Yellowstone County Republicans and co-founder of the Montana Shrugged Tea Party group, shared an offensive and blatantly racist photo on her Facebook profile... Right after a post about a roast she was cooking in a crock pot. One of her 1000+ friends quickly grabbed a screenshot and it went viral within hours after appearing on a right-wing blog that also thought the picture funny. To see the entire screenshot, visit…

  • Former GOP Executive Director Todd Kincannon's Superbowl Toilet Humor

    Todd Kincannon - Trayvon Martin Tweet

    Well, the election is over and the GOP has been in utter chaos ever since. I was thinking that maybe the vitriol towards the President would lessen but, sadly, I was wrong. I took a couple months off just to re-prioritize and get all the hate out of my head for a short time. I was hoping for a much longer break but, alas, the media demands that I get back to recording the underbelly…

  • GOP Meltdown 2012: Mapping Racist Tweets from the Presidential Election

    Geo-located Tweets using racist language, mapped by state and exact location. Click for larger image

    Data-mapping experts from the Floating Sheep blog mapped geo-located Tweets containing racist language during the build-up to the US election. I'm sure the results will shock you. Concentrated racism in the South? No way! As a resident of Georgia and having watched the campaign as it affected my neighbors, my only surprise is that Georgia wasn't #1. I guess that's part of what makes Alabama and Mississippi such magical places! Click here for details and…

  • Romney Rally Fail: Put the White Back in the White House!

    "Put the White Back in the White House" T-Shirt at Romney / Ryan Rally.

    This Getty Images photo from a Romney / Ryan rally in Lancaster, Ohio on Friday has gotten a lot of attention. I wonder why? This Romney supporter not only felt comfortable enough in this crowd to wear a t-shirt saying "Put the White back in the White House" but he wanted to spike the ball by adding a Romney / Ryan sticker to the top of the message. A Romney spokesperson commented that the shirt…

  • Letters to the Editor: Confessions of a Racist Conservative

    Letters to the Editor: Confessions of a Frustrated Conservative

    When one thinks of the mindset of a Republican in Arkansas, it is not hard to imagine them being pretty extreme. It is along that line of thinking that I will present quotes from the book "Letters to the Editor: Confessions of a Frustrated Conservative" written by Republican Legislator Jon Hubbard of Jonesboro, Arkansas. For my racist readers (and I know you're there,) this is a book that you're going to love. It's not only…

  • Texas Republicans Deface Obama Biden Sign... And No One is Suprised

    Cassy Zobel's Sign: After the Mystery Republican Visited

    The next time a Texas Republican starts going on about "grass roots" campaigns like they believe the Tea Party to be, don't be fooled. The real grass roots campaign in Texas is the one being pursued by Texas' vast racist population. Cassy Zobel, an Obama supporter in McKinney, Texas, recently had the sign she put up covered and then scrawled with racism and profanity. It's been reported that Cassy told blogger Egberto Willies, “My next…

  • Texas Republican Lynches An Empty Chair

    Texas Republican Lynches an Empty Chair

    Yesterday in Texas, the Burnt Orange Report received a photo of an empty chair, representing President Obama in a bizarre Clint Eastwood homage, being lynched in the front yard of a Texas Republican. The poor chair was lynched in the front yard of an Austin, Texas homeowner and has many on the right asking, "How is that racist?  Chairs have no race!" The problem, as pointed out by Katherine Haenschen, is that Texas has a long history…
