Via Wonkette: Racist Republican Angry Someone Forwarded Her Racist Email About Obama
Edited on Wed Jun-03-09 07:03 PM by SemiCharmedQuark
Snip:

Hmm, any Republicans forward some Email lately? Oh yes, sure, here we go: “Diann Jones, a vice chairman of the Collin County Republican Party, has apologized for an e-mail that some local judges denounced as racist.” Hooray! As is usual in such cases, this GOP leader from this Dallas exurb is denying any racist intent in sending this email bitching about the “black house” where Obama is plotting against Americans, an email she sent to all the Republicans in “local Republican clubs,” because the REAL crime is that one of the recipients, a local Republican judge, is kind of tired of his party being a bunch of idiot racists, so he sent it to a bunch of other judges, who will HMMMM pass judgment on Diann Jones, in some Texas form of justice, such as a mild rebuke?

The Dallas Morning News reports:

"In an e-mail Tuesday to state District Judge Robert Dry, Jones wrote, “If someone is offended by something in an e-mail, I don’t think forwarding it on to 50 other people is really prudent … That action simply multiplies the offensive e-mail and enlarges the damage.”

Yeah, jeez, let’s not tell everybody the GOP is just a fringe-nut group of old white people FURIOUS about this negro in the White House."

Oh, and the thing this idiot “Diann Jones” was complaining about? A proposed Texas state tax on gun purchases. This is what brought this county GOP leader to the conclusion that she simply must send an email to Republican voters clubs that included the hilarious comment: “Another terrific idea from the black house and its minions.”

On Edit: Here is what she said specifically:

"The war of words began a week ago when Jones sent an e-mail to local Republican clubs, rallying support against a state bill that would have imposed a $50 tax on guns. The e-mail included the statement, "Another terrific idea from the black house and its minions." "

2. They're blaming President Obama (fedgov) for a STATE law decision???
My god, the stupidity. :argh:
What do they think, that the president called up the legislature and told them to impose a gun tax? And that they would LISTEN/OBEY?
:banghead:

3. I thought they had seceded
This may be what finally pushes them to do it:-) brilliant that it would come from a utterly nonsensical interpretation of the law. So perfectly Publican done.

Oh, but then they might need another vaccine or bail out from the black house. Gee, maybe they should wait a while...

Even if our local(repuke) pols are....

I still remember how county repuke party members (yes, 2 grumpy looking old white men) stalked our voter registration table that had one of those huge Barack Obama cardboard cut-outs in front of the tent..seems the CROWDS of people registering to vote AND taking their own pictures with the cut out was a little more than the repuke party could handle. Oh, they looked pissed, arms crossed, mumbling to each other, stood their for a long while, just staring. Probably related to Diann Jones.....

On edit: Let's hear it for Judge Dry...he also presided over my divorce trial back in the 90's..very fair guy/judge back then, too.

6. How fortunate this got
Edited on Wed Jun-03-09 10:19 PM by Cha
sent on to 50 others(fed up Judge included)..otherwise how would we hear what an lying bigoted, racist idiot, diann jones is?

Is she so stupid she doesn't know that it's a state issue and our president and his admin had nothing to do with it? Or, does she just want to talk about her bigotry every chance she gets?

Yeah, "enlarges" the damage to your racist ass, &!^(#!
