Yet Another Apology for Racism from Racist Republicans: Vermont GOP Chairman Retracts Facebook Post
/Every week these cave-dwellers are issuing apologies for some racist stuff they do. Every week. No apology is necessary. We expect racism from them. Racism is a system of white behavior and survival. This conduct is done for the ultimate purpose of white genetic survival and to prevent white genetic annihilation, here on planet earth – a planet upon which the vast majority of people are classified as non-white by white skinned people (who are less than 10% of the global population), and all of the nonwhite people are genetically dominant (in terms of skin coloration) compared to the genetic recessive white skin people. People who classify themselves as White, who wish to be taken seriously, and who are righteous and responsible, will only talk about ending White Supremacy (Racism) and replacing it with Justice. [MORE] From AP 7/17/12. A county Republican Party committee chairman apologized Tuesday for a statement he reposted to a party Facebook page that was widely interpreted as a racist attack on President Barack Obama. Rob Towle, the Rutland County committee chairman, called the statement "stupid and insensitive." On Monday, he apologized to Democrats he said were offended by the post. A day later, he was directing his apology to everyone.
The original post talked about a "2012 Social Security Stimulus Package" that included cornbread mix, discount coupons to Kentucky Fried Chicken and a prayer rug. Prayer rugs are used by Muslims in religious observances.
It added that the contents of the "stimulus package" included an "`Obama Hope & Change' bumper sticker, and a `Blame it on Bush' poster for the front yard. The directions were in Spanish." Towle's initial apology came after state Democratic Party Chairman Jake Perkinson issued a statement Monday calling the statement "appalling" and "vile."
Towle said someone else had written the message and shared it on his personal Facebook page, and he reposted it on Sunday on the county Republican Facebook page. The liberal-leaning news website Green Mountain Daily first reported on the posting on Sunday.
Towle confirmed Tuesday that in responding to questions from the website, he initially had defended the posting, but had since changed his thinking. "I realized that it was inappropriate and insensitive and I'm truly sorry for having posted it in the first place," Towle said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.
In a statement issued Tuesday, he said: "It was a case of bad judgment and anyone that knows me, knows that the post does not reflect my personal values, nor does it in any way reflect the values or beliefs of any GOP official, candidate, GOP worker, or any person that I am friends with or associate with."
