Seriously, who the **** cares? You should have shut down the ******* booth and kicked out every racist **** that bought one of the buttons. Feigning outrage while fanning the flames. I don't even want to show the pin, it's so freaking juvenile and stupid.
AUSTIN – The Republican Party of Texas will donate to charity the $1,500 it received for leasing a booth at its state convention to a vendor who sold a racist button.
GOP spokesman Hans Klingler said the state party has been unsuccessful in trying to reach the vendor, Republicanmarket.com, who sold pins, scarves and other items last weekend.
So the party is sending a letter saying in “very strong terms” that he need not apply to sell items at any further state GOP events, Mr. Klingler said.
He said that the party, while approving the lease to the vendor, was unaware of offensive merchandise that was being sold there. One of the pins they were selling stated: “If Obama is president…Will we still call it the White House?”

Mr. Klingler said he and party leaders believe the pin is distasteful and they hated that it was being sold at their event, which he said was upbeat and dedicated to unity.
Yeah, sounds like a love fest to me. Screw the $1500, double it and send it directly to the charity of Senator Obama's choice.
