GOP Activist Refers to Escaped Gorilla as Michelle Obama's Ancestor
Rusty DePass an activist affiliated with the South Carolina GOP has referred to an escaped gorilla as an 'ancestor' of First Lady, Michelle Obama. The whole story is posted at The Huffington Post. Also, CNN ran video of the whole controversy:
Today's Republican Party, or GOP, has become a truly self-mocking caricature its corresponding conservative movement allowing itself to be empowered by hateful rhetoric emanating from the likes of their Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and the de facto Republican leader, Rush Limbaugh. DePass' comments when judged in the context of such "pundits" as these aren't very surprising. This sort of bigotry is the core of the today's conservative movement. How very sad that DePass' comments will likely go unchallenged by his colleagues in the GOP and his career go unthreatened given that he is a southern Republican in the first place.
