Racist GOP mailing depicts Obama surrounded by KFC, watermelon, and food stamps.

Racist GOP mailing depicts Obama surrounded by KFC, watermelon, and food stamps.
A local California GOP women’s organization’s most recent newsletter claims that if Obama is elected, his face will appear on food stamps, rather than dollar bills like other presidents. The group then included a picture of “Obama Bucks” — a phony $10 bill with Obama surrounded by racist imagery:
The president of the organization, Diane Fedele, didn’t understand the charges of racism: “I didn’t see it the way that it’s being taken. I never connected. It was just food to me.” One African-American member of the club said that upon seeing the newsletter, she “cried for 45 minutes.” “This is what keeps African-Americans from joining the Republican Party,” she added.

October 16th, 2008 at 2:46 pmYassa Massah! We gots us some watermelon and buckets o’ chicken, finger likkkin good!
October 16th, 2008 at 2:49 pmThe Republican Party needs to be flat eliminated. It must not exist anymore. We can never again skip ANY election, especially locally even if we think it is useless. From school boards to state senate and all the federal races. We must turn out in droves for every, single solitary election and drive these people from the planet. If you know anyone that even remotely thinks, “I don’t need to vote for Obama he is going to win anyway”, kick them dead in the ass, grab them by the hair, and drag them to the polls. I was a lifelong Republican until around 2002-2003. I will always and forever vote against these people until they are gone for good.
October 16th, 2008 at 2:49 pmFirst the Sacramento GOP and now a women’s group in Callie – how is racism stronger among West Coast Rethuglicans than in the South?
Or is it willingness to be open about your racism?

October 16th, 2008 at 2:51 pmThis too will backfire and give Obama more electoral votes.
October 16th, 2008 at 2:52 pmAre WE (decent Americans) supposed to be shocked, horrified, or suprised by this? What took so long for McCain supporters to start using Chicken and Watermelon references in the campaign. I know when I go to KFC there are always alot of White people inside enjoying chicken. Not once have I heard one yell out “Hey where’s the m-f’in watermelon and iced tea!” (get it).
I’m John McCain and I approve of this message:

October 16th, 2008 at 2:57 pm“Sheila Raines, an African-American member of the club, was the first person to complain. Rainnes said she has worked hard to try to convince other minorities to join the Republican Party and now she feels betrayed. ‘This is what keeps African-Americans from joining the Republican Party,, she said. ‘I’m really hurt. I cried for 45 minutes.’”

“hilarious, but true”?
What exactly is “true?”
As a “man of darker complexion” you aren’t in the least offended by the cartoonish depiction of a black man of education and achievement?

Racism, bigotry and hate are what Republicans are all about, and why any minority (soon to be majority) would support these sickos is beyond me.

Classy? Their rallies resemble a KKK cross-burning event or a Nazi book-burning hate-fest.
Go put your head where it belongs- in a filthy toilet and flush 10X.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:07 pmThis is hilarious, but true.
It defies belief that a dark toned person such as yourself thinks this is funny. How about you drive down to Alabama and stand in a town square with a bullhorn blasting
“Where’s all the white women?”
It’d take you about five minutes to get lynched.
That’s about as funny as this racist crap from your Republican soul mates.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:09 pm“Sheila Raines, an African-American member of the club, was the first person to complain.
Why would an African American woman be a member of the local Republican klan?
Wanna bet her vote just flipped?
October 16th, 2008 at 3:10 pmA local California GOP women’s organization’s most recent newsletter claims that if Obama is elected, his face will appear on food stamps, rather than dollar bills like other presidents.
My sister, a resident of California a RN nurse and a gopper sent me and about 100 others via email
this nasty video concerning Obama. My respect for her has dropped a few decibels.
Obama is leading in double digits in California, but there are some pockets in the valley, Orange county and in rural areas that are richly gopper.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:11 pmUm… Uncle Ho? I took Anymouse’s comment to be sarcastic.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:12 pmI did a search for her and easily got her email address. I am sharing it here because it really isn’t “private” information –> diane1354@verizon.net
I already wrote to her and gave her a piece of my mind. I would encourage others to do so as well. No need to be abusive — just fill up her in-box and let her know that people are paying attention and are not willing to accept this level of intolerance and/or cluelessness.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:12 pmWhite racism in America: three hundred and eighty years old and goin’ strong. Why, gasp, white racism is even older than old man McCain… Take that, John, white racism has seniority…
October 16th, 2008 at 3:12 pm*Shaking my head and sighing*
What else can one do? These things seem to have become so commonplace that I’m no longer surprised by them. Or maybe I’ve become simply desensitized.
I thought this was funny: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARBDlslV65Q
October 16th, 2008 at 3:13 pmThis is the second time sicko’s used this type of racism to spread to the public. Yes some might laugh and others are hurt but let’s go back to when a young black man had simular attacks. This man held his head of high and completed his mission with honor and brought pride to every American and big bucks to CBS.
The young black man’s name is TIGER WOODS
Now as for this lady saying she didn’t know well it’s hard to believe the President of a Republican Organization is that stupid if she really is that says alot about leaders of the Republican Party.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:14 pmRaptureReady Says:
This is hilarious, but true. Hussein supports socialism. Look at Joe W. (Plumber).
Nope, can’t help stupid! I am amazed any person of color would be a GOP member. It really shows a lack of intelligence to cheer for people that clearly think your below them.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:17 pmDiane Fedele: “I didn’t see it the way that it’s being taken. I never connected. It was just food to me.”
________________________________________________________
Um…yeah…and it just HAPPENS that the food pictured here are the foods most used in hateful, demeaning stereotypes.
I suppose Ms. Fedele wouldn’t have a problem juxtaposing Jews with Zyklon B, because she would see Zyklon B as “just a disinfectant”.
What an idiot. And she’s REALLY an idiot for thinking that we buy her “innocent” act.

October 16th, 2008 at 3:19 pmIt’s official: Every white person who votes for McCain is a racist. OR AN IDIOT OR BOTH.
As hateful and overtly racist as this is, the perpetrators of this atrocity might have to finally admit that Obama isn’t a Muslim. Not if they are tying him to pork ribs.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:19 pmDiane Fedele thinks it’s ‘just food’. Why that poor sweet innocent liar. Bless her heart. I bet every day is a brand new day for this innocent wannabe.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:21 pmralph; maybe you are right, maybe not. But there has been so much of this vile venom coming out from the GOP that it’s not at all funny.
the other week, some nut damn near ran me off the road and shouted you ni**er loving terrorist supporter , he had a McCain/Palin sticker on his truck.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:21 pmdaryll has turned yellow. He’s now no better than troll john kerry.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:23 pmPay attention to the Obama buck, not to the $54 billion in your taxpayer money going to shore up Phil Gramm’s UBS.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:23 pmShocking in 2008 yes, surprising not really. I wonder how many Obama supposed voters turn to Mccain in the voting booth. People have lost jobs and want to blame someone or something. A Black man gets the highest post in the land, how can that be ? Maybe because he has worked hard and is qualified more than the white candidates we have had. Oh, by the way isn’t bush/cheney white and look what a wonderful job they did. Heavy snark.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:24 pmThat’s some incredible leap of logic, there, Nettles. We know how you wingnuts like to grab the most extreme interpretation of anything and attribute it, straight-facedly to every progressive, but this is just silly.

____________________________________________________________
Waitaminnit — you think the only thing anybody’s complaining about here is that Obama’s face is on food stamps? Do you really think that’s the only thing about this that might bother anyone?
Let me clue you in. Nobody’s upset about tying Obama to socialism here. Take another look. If you are truly “dark-toned” as you claim to be, you shouldn’t have a problem seeing what might be offensive. If you’re still clueless, ask another “dark-toned” person to explain it to you.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:27 pmNettles Says:
It’s official: Every white person who votes for McCain is a racist.
Looking at the hateful rallies and the refusal of the republican presidential nominee to repudiate that hatred until it became a PR inconvenience, I would say at this point that is true. And keep in mind, Sociopath Sarah has not apologized for own role in fertilizing the grounds of hatred.

October 16th, 2008 at 3:30 pmThis is horrifying and awesome at the same time. Please please please keep it up!
Racists and other d-bags should be open, honest, and unapologetic about their d-baggery.
It makes it so much easier to identify them as out of the mainstream of america.

October 16th, 2008 at 3:32 pmwhat is to the right of the KFC bucket? I can’t see it too well.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:33 pmWhy?
Will Mike Huckabee suddenly become “President-elect Huckabee”?
That WOULD be a surprise.
Either way, Daryll, we hope you’re here that morning to share the surprise with us. Will you be here?
October 16th, 2008 at 3:33 pmRemember those old cartoons, depicting African Americans as big lipped, slow talking, uneducated folks?
Well, it appears we’ve returned (or never left).
I hang my head in shame. There was, at one time, when I was younger (and not as wise), a belief inside of me that we would end racism and bigotry in my lifetime.
Sadly, we won’t.
I am reminded of an incident back in 1992. I was on a cruise, and some of my table mates were senior ladies, rich and white, from Louisiana. Now, my neck of the woods (southwest Michigan) sees little racism. Well, at least I didn’t.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:34 pmAnyway, back to story. It was during the Rodney King vs LAPD verdict. A passenger at our table announced that the police officers were acquitted. I remember being disgusted. What happened next was almost surreal.
The ladies, all dressed up with fancy hats and gloves, clapped their hands and yelled…”Goody” and “Good for them”.
I was appalled.
But it was that day, April 26th, (my golden birthday), that I realized our country was not color blind.
These (R) ladies from California remind me of those table mates 16 years ago.
And yes indeed, we are still not color blind.
Daryl, President Obama is going to cut contractor spending by at least 10%. I, therefore, can see why you’re eager to throw shit at the wall.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:35 pmNope, can’t help stupid! I am amazed any person of color would be a GOP member.
Reminds me of the Dave Chappelle skit about the blind, black white supremacist who was a KKK leader and divorced his own wife because she was a “ni**er lover”.
Funny shit.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:36 pmI love the classic “I had no idea that’s just food to me” crap line This party needs to be taught a lesson If not now when. People we have a candidate who is intelligent charismatic and spot on with the solution Please take a little of your time and do as I a 70 year old man have get on the street for Barack
October 16th, 2008 at 3:36 pmThere you have it, missmolly.
Daryll is unwilling or incapable of addressing the inherent racism in the caricature. He continues to cling to the tired right-wing mantra of blaming the victim, as it allows him to pretend that his party doesn’t secretly despise and distrust “good ones” like himself.
As John Kenneth Galbraith said, “The modern conservative is engaged in one of man’s oldest exercises in moral philosophy: that is the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.”
October 16th, 2008 at 3:37 pmpsst, it’s pronounced “African American”, not “dark-toned”.
Shit man, you haven’t even embraced your own Nubian roots, which explains A LOT about your incredible insecurities!
October 16th, 2008 at 3:41 pmFirst of all, Daryll, you and I clearly have different concepts of the term “holy people”. I don’t really think of “holy people” as “conquerors”. I’m pretty sure Jesus didn’t, either. At least, not in the way you present here.
Second, I see that you’re counting on teh GOP’s “Suppress the Vote” campaign, huh? Why do you hate democracy, Daryll? Is it because you know that, in a fair election, you guys lose?
I could see that being a sticking point for you.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:41 pmWhen a white person states, “Obama still hasn’t given me facts and figures to make me vote for him.” I consider that racist because I hear the facts, the figures. Mccain just blows hot air with NO numbers, NO facts. So the only reason the white person can’t hear is the racism in their head.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:42 pmCRapture Ready (aka Parodyll) says:
Sorry I am the same dark-toned man who loves Jesus and believes in self-reliance. We all need help, but it is not that Government’s responsibility to give you more funds for not taking the proper step for furthering your education and skills.
This is a serious thread, and I promised myself I would ignore your constant B.S., but I couldn’t let this pass.
You are always being criticized for not capitalizing God, or when quoting, not capitalizing He.
Yet you capitalize government?
Man, Freud would have a field day with you! And that’s not even dwelving into your closeted homosexual tendencies, as well as your enjoyment of shooting baby animals.
Good day!
October 16th, 2008 at 3:43 pmYou forgot to mention “and the government’s largess”.
Funny how the folks who shriek the loudest about government spending always seem to be the ones whose livelihoods are built around it.
And that must give you some security, knowing that the contract is “legally binding”, huh? Just like the people who had their money invested in Lehman Brothers.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:43 pmThis food stamp is an example of how Hussein wants to take from those who worked hard to become extremely successful and give to those who refuse to use the same method to get out of poverty.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:33 pm
What about those who worked hard and got laid off? Are they not successful? The food stamp program is one of the most efficient in government, and today you see a lot of people using it for themselves and their families until some new jobs (industries) come along.
Also, am I right in recalling that you work for a private contractor doing business with the government? If so, remember that strategic government spending provides your employment and, in turn, puts food in your cupboard.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:43 pmYeah, like the sub-prime lenders who worked oh so very hard. Maybe the enron smart guys, those kind of people rr?
Maybe you’re talking about halliburton execs or blackwater.
Working hard and being corrupt are not the same thing.
As far as your self-reliance, I’m betting you run a welfare scam for a living.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:45 pmDaryll,
I find it interesting that you aren’t offended by this blatant racism. Is that because you are a typical Repug; “Screw the rest of the African-Americans and other stereotypes, I got mine”.
BTW, how’s your investment portfolio lookin, D?

Actually, according to his past posts, Daryll is a DOD contractor, so I guess he is one of those people living off the gorernment, so he is a part of the welfare scam.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:52 pmWow. This is remarkable.
Daryll says he sees “nothing racist about it”, and then he proceeds to defend it in racial terms.
Maybe we have written him off too soon. He’s clearly still got the ability to entertain.

If it was just food to her then it must be the coincidence of all coincidences that the food chosen was fried chicken and watermelon. These people are pathetic, liars and beyond sick.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:59 pmDarryl, this is called a presidential campaign. Obama bested McCain in all three debates alone. The polls prove it. He is way ahead in state polls and projected electoral points. He has the national lead.
You post about welfare and the successful giving to the unsuccessful. Obama is outperforming McCain. He is successful. Why, therefore, are you attempting to penalize his success with personal attacks? What is wrong with your party?
October 16th, 2008 at 3:59 pmIt is Gods plan to elect Barack Obama because Obama is a good christian man, with morals and integrity unlike Johnny McAdulterer or his sidekick who parades her pregnant, unwedded teenage daughter all across America.

October 16th, 2008 at 4:03 pmrr, you are just along for the ride now. We will tax you so we can pay for the things we want.
I want socialized medicine. I want to beef up the safety net for the impovershed and I want to put the money back in social security that your bunch stole from it.
I also want a real education system in America and investment in renewable energy.
These projects cost money. The American people agree. You are just along for the ride now so enjoy.
the only way you can win is by cheating. Is that what god thinks is ok? Are you saying that all of the religious people out there are worshiping a god that endorses cheating?
I think cheating is dishonest and against almost any gods will, what do you think rr?
The racism in this country has put a stank on us and only by putting people like you in your place can we rid ourselves of it.

October 16th, 2008 at 4:07 pmYou seem confident that the vast majority of these non-counted votes will be Democratic.
Why is that? Just curious. I would think that, if the problem was a s widespread as Republicans say, then the percentages of Democratic and Republican votes discounted should mirror the percentages in the general voting population, right? For example, voters like Joe the Plumber, whose name is misspelled on his Republican voter registration form.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:07 pmRaptureReady Says: Polls are flawed and irrelevant.
I agree the polls are flawed, but not in a way that is
October 16th, 2008 at 4:08 pmhelpful to the republicans. There are millions of voters
who only have cell phones and are not polled. The distrubtion
is 62% democrats and 28% republicans.
The president of the organization, Diane Fedele, didn’t understand the charges of racism: “I didn’t see it the way that it’s being taken. I never connected. It was just food to me.”
October 16th, 2008 at 4:08 pmSure, you revolting racist– you just happened to pick those particular food items at random. Not only are you a racist, you lie as well. And yes, this is why so many people shun the hateful Republican party. Blatantly racist GOP attacks reveal over & over that the vast majority of Republicans revile people of color.
They’re doing it wrong. Why Kool-Aid? Why not a 40-oz bottle of Colt 45? Now THAT’S racist.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:08 pmDaryll; for an explanation of racism, see my alma mater, Ferris State University in Big Rapids, Michigan. They operate a jim crow museum.
http://www.ferrisedu/jimcrowmuseum
I hope the link works. If not, google Ferris State University and search for the jim crow museum. There is some truly disgusting stuff, but it is an unfortunate part of our legacy.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:09 pmThis happened in CALIFORNIA? Man, and they say that the South is bad.
Any white person over the age of 30 who does not know that watermelon, fried chicken and kool-aid are stereotypically associated with African-Americans is just plain ignorant. There is no doubt whatsoever that the person who designed and created the graphic knew…. there is literally no way that someone would randomly select these food items by accident.
Is this really all that the GOP has to offer America? After all this time, is that really all there is?
To hell with the GOP and those who support it.

An admitted adulterer, who dropped bombs on thousands of innocent victims, is a serial liar, worships Mammon and is full of hate for those skin color is different then his? A man who supports war?
You decide.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:10 pmSo daryll, if the republicans show a picture of Obama with a noose around his neck would you consider that racist or would you just equate that with your image of a german eating sausage as not being racist.
Where is the line between decency and evil. You must have an opinion.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:10 pm“I never connected. It was just food to me.”
This denial sounds so hollow, it’s not even funny.
Had it been “just food”, the group could have picked any food -hamburgers, hot dogs, pizza… but they picked a very specific type of food. On top of that, they included food stamps.
Their intent is clear. And they obviously never intended their audience to include African-Americans.

2. When the outrage comes, either
a) Feign ignorance
b) or blame the victims for “playing the victim card”
3. Stop after the point has been made.

If Jesus were walking among us today many of these so called christians on the radical right would attack and smear him for being against war, helping the old, the sick and the needy and most likely want to crucify him all over again.
I’m glad Darryl that you’ll separate yourself from this blatant racism. Perhaps you might even denounce the GOP, after all you said so yourself…
The bible says to separate yourself from sin.

October 16th, 2008 at 4:34 pmNot to go off topic from my faux brown sugar’s derailment, but I just wanted to share this with all.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:34 pmOne of my (R) friends, who is usually not argumentative, just sent an email wishing that McCain would have addressed certain issues about Obama (like character, and lack of experience) instead of attacking. It’s a move of desperation as he even admitted it was hopefully to sway the fence voters. I, of course, couldn’t keep silent, so I replied, albeit in kind, knowing well that the majority of addresses were Republicans.
well, lo and behold, another response, this time from a right voter, basically calling McCain an A-hole, and that his POW status does not make him qualified for president. It also stated that we need change now from the mess Bush has created. He concluded by stating he, too, was voting Obama/Biden!
Again, this from a conservative.
I am grinning ear from ear right now!

11 For he will command his angels concerning you [ Barack Obama] to guard you [ Barack Obama ] in all your ways; 12 they will lift you [ Barack Obama ] up in their hands, so that you [ Barack Obama ] will not strike your [his] foot against a stone. 13 You [ Barack Obama ] will tread upon the lion and the cobra; you [ Barack Obama ] will trample the great lion and the serpent. – Psalm 91:11-13
I have given you [ Barack Obama ] authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you [ Barack Obama ]. – Luke 10:19
