White Supremacists threaten to leave Republican Party over Michael Steele

[ck4829]

It’s not easy being a white supremacist these days.

Already reeling from Obama’s win in November, believers in white superiority were dealt another blow last week when former Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele became the first African-American to head the Republican Party.

Extremists view Steele’s election to the helm of the Republican National Committee as a betrayal by the party that many considered, in their words, “the lesser of two evils.” On blogs and online forums, they excoriated the Republican Party for supposedly pandering to minorities while abandoning what they see as its white base.

“GOP traitors appoint Obama Junior as Chairman of the Republican Party” - David Duke, ex-Klan boss and former Louisiana state legislator.

“GOP continues shooting bullets into it’s (sic) own corpse” - Council of Conservative Citizens

“RNC to White Men: — Off” - Vdare.com

“Now they’ve got a black man heading up their party, just like the Democrats do, and the GOP couldn’t be happier. It simply wouldn’t do to have a white chairman. Not with a black man in the White House heading up the Democrats.” - James Edwards, host of the Political Cesspool

“New GOP chair to Southerners and conservatives: drop dead” - League of the South

Who knew that the Republican Party had so many racists in it, right?

:sarcasm:

1. Not surprised one bit. n/t

[bluestateguy]

2. Tough dilemma

They should teach their party a lesson and stay home on election day.

[nichomachus]

Well, there goes 75 percent of the party. n/t

[pleah]

3. ROTFLMAO!

That'll teach'em!:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

4. Does it get any better??

No, no it doesn't.

5. I think they're right

They should rise up in rightous indignation and take their party back. How could a Negro lead the Party of the White Man? David Duke is much more representative of the average republican then Michael Steele. Or maybe that wonderful christian and good friend of Duke Tony Perkins. Yo go Boys, fuck that inclusion shit.

6. Pass the popcorn

:popcorn:

[YOY]

7. Oh NOES!

Not the vaunted Racist Asshole vote!

I suppose they think we'll try and court them now... :rofl:

[nc4bo]

8. LMMFAO - Oh my!! Let the fracturing of the fringes continue!! nt

[Fovea]

9. That swirling sound

is the Republican party, heading rapidly to the Schwarzschild Radius of Political history.
Devoid of its racists, and with the economy proving supply side econ and the free market are fantasy creations
of the right, what is left but snake handlers and anti-communists?

[tosh]

10. The Great Schism.

Bring it on, LOL!!

[Cleita]

11. Republicans should say "buh bye losers". They used to feel too idealistic

to belong to any political party because at one time they didn't recognize our government as legitimate. It was much nicer then when they didn't bother to vote for the lunatic fringe Republicans who appeal to them.

[Richardo]

12. That HAS to be an Onion headline

:rofl:

[FiveGoodMen]

13. White Supremacists should not be allowed to consume oxygen.

Flame the fuck away.

I'm not suggesting a new law.

Just a fact as I see it.

[HelenWheels]

14. And this is bad because? nt

[GreenTea]

15. Years of Republicans greed & corporate ideology has brought everything on themselves & the stupid

dumb fucking republican ditto-heads, racist workers for min. wage were too dumb to see it coming...they just went along with the republicans greed & corporate tax cuts believing it would be good for them...

Stupid fucks only the very rich republican corporations made billions of dollars, bankrupt American as they ran wild with no regulations & no one allowed to stop them & their incredible greed.

That was enough for the American people to say enough, and left the southern crackers now out in the cold....keep believing your republican leaders & Limbaugh you dumb hick crackers!

16. More splintering the better-go for it

[Horse with no Name]

17. Gee imagine an entire country being wrong

and only a small cadre of sloped-forehead inbreds think they are right.

[derby378]

18. Shouldn't we be encouraging this?

We'd be doing the Republican Party a huge favor, y'know - helping them filter out the dregs.

[Fleshdancer]

20. I think so. If they want to claim to be the "party of Lincoln"....

then they should actually act like the party of Lincoln.

[derby378]

21. Bingo

Party of Lincoln, just do it in one fast pull, like removing a bandage.

[Fleshdancer]

19. good

It's time for the GOP to grow up.

[LiberalPersona]

22. It seems to me

that the republican party is imploding.
It's a beautiful sight to behold.

[Still Sensible]

23. So Fucking What?

The only good thing about it is I am sure that these people and their sympathizers make up a hefty portion of the audience for Rush and Lou Dobbs. Oh my, what will Rush do if the racists turn against the GOP?

[cherish44]

24. Better idea

Instead of starting a new party, why don't you guys go colonize your own PLANET. Think of it.... Planet White and Conservative! Rush could be your supreme ruler. Everyone would be happy...especially the rest of us! (But then who would they hate?)

[AndrewP]

25. I wonder if I send them a box of Oreo's, in celebration of Steele, if they would get angry?
