Rusty DePass made a very racist comment about Michelle Obama.But what he said could really be applied to him.
The GOP racist said that an escaped gorilla was probably an ancestor of Michelle Obama.
Now,when I look at Rusty DePass,I see an albino gorilla.I mean,he looks just like he descended from apes to me.
I can't say the same for the breathtakingly beautiful first lady.Unlike Rusty De Pass,Michelle Obama looks nothing like a gorilla!
Here's more from the NY Daily News:
"A prominent South Carolina Republican killed his Facebook page Sunday after being caught likening the First Lady to an escaped gorilla.
Commenting on a report posted to Facebook about a gorilla escape at a zoo in Columbia, S.C., Friday, longtime GOP activist Rusty DePass wrote, "I'm sure it's just one of Michelle's ancestors - probably harmless."
Busted by South Carolina political blogger Will Folks on his FITNEWS blog, DePass told WIS-TV in Columbia, "I am as sorry as I can be if I offended anyone. The comment was clearly in jest."
Then he added, "The comment was hers, not mine," claiming Michelle Obama made a recent remark about humans descending from apes. The Daily News could find no such comment.
"'Humor' like this is nothing new for South Carolina Republicans - even as the party claims to be focusing on 'outreach' efforts to minorities," said Folks, a former gubernatorial spokesman and widely read blogger. "The fact that Palmetto [State] Republicans don't get that this is a serious problem for them baffles us."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
