GOP Convention button says it all.

[JohnnyMarzetti]

GOP convention button asks, ‘If Obama is president…will we still call it the White House?’ A party of change? Yeah, right.

At the Republican state convention, a booth hosted by Republicanmarket was selling a pin Saturday that says: If Obama is President will we still call it the White House.

There were other pins that weren't necessarily conveying the positive, inclusive, united front that has been portrayed during the convention. One said, "Press 1 for English. Press 2 for Deportation" and another, "I will hold my nose when I vote for McCain"

The Republican Party of Texas has announced it will donate the proceeds from a vendor who attempted to sell a button during last weekend's Republican State Convention in Houston.

The button reads, "If Barrack obama is elected president cna we still call it the White House?"
The of the button is FLorida based RepublicanMarket.com.

A written statement from Texas GOP spekesperson Hans Klinger reads, "The proceeds from their booth space will be donated to charity. We will tolerate nor profit from bigotry. Our state convention was energetic, unifying and positive. We will not allow any dishonor to be brought on our hardworking grassroots leaders by the actions of a misguided few. The Republican Party of Texas is proud of its principles, record and diversity."

Klinger does not say which cherity the money will be donated to.

Too little too late IMO. Shouldnt've allowed them their in the 1st place.

If anything they allowed the idea and sentiment to exposed fully to those in attendance. Exposure has already been given nationwide.

And unfortunately McCain can't control his party's actions.

Though in contrast the unexperienced Obama can declare that the Dems won't accept PACs and lobbyist funds anymore.

Not to mention the Obama sock monkey doll.

Did they shut down the dude's booth when they saw the pin?

Nope.

And you know damn well they knew what the booth was up to prior to the convention.


=San Diego Union Tribune]
In 1998, the Log Cabin Republicans, the nation's largest organization of gay Republicans, was denied a booth at the GOP state convention in Fort Worth and likened to the Ku Klux Klan by a Texas Republican Party spokesman.

“We don't allow pedophiles, transvestites or cross-dressers, either,” then-GOP spokesman Robert Black said at the time.


This supports the notion that they are screening before the conventions.

[clambake]

so much for being the party that protects america from harm.

[xrayzebra]

Those wascally Republicans. They thought they saw a puddy cat,
but it wasn't. It was a guy selling nasty anti-Obama buttons.

And they threw him out. End of story.

[ChumpDumper]

And they threw him out.Did they?

[xrayzebra]

Did they?

Yes.

[ChumpDumper]

Yes.I don't see that they threw him out in the stories I have read. Only that they wouldn't invite him back.

[JoeChalupa]

What is sad is how many people bought those pins. For "historical" value of course.

[Extra Stout]

The people selling the Obama monkey doll were big Romney supporters in Utah.

I had a vain hope that Republicans could keep this about the issues. So much for that.

[clambake]

obama's a black monkey. for many of them that is the issue.

[JoeChalupa]

sad

It's Texas, a bubba state with bubba humor.

Go HUSSEIN!, you Muslim nigra terrorist! :lol

[GaryJohnston]

There are idiotic supporters on both sides.

[Anti.Hero]

lol at you losers latching on to this goofball and trying to generalize it as all reps.

But what do you expect right? Hard to get over that 5 yr old mentality homie!

[boutons_]

The button of course doesn't apply to all Repugs, but it very accurately typifies how the Repugs, for the last 35 years, have been playing the race card, and are still playing the race card against that dangerous Muslim nigra HUSSEIN! "just because he's black".

So the joke-about-black-skin button really does typify Repug strategy, even if not every Repug agrees. My guess is that most Repugs, and millions of whiteys, won't vote for HUSSEIN! "just because he's black".

The illegal immigrant obsession is really brown racism, hidden behind national security, while ignoring the $Bs in profits of the US businesses that profit from underpaying/underbenefitting illegals.

[J.T.]

I changed my mind. I'm voting for McCain because Obama is going to make all whites become slaves.
