Xenophobic Republicans think Obama $3 Bills are so Funny!

August 28th, 2008

The Seattle Times reports:

The head of the Snohomish County Republican Party apologized Tuesday after the organization’s booth at the Evergreen State Fair in Monroe sold “$3 bills” depicting Barack Obama wearing Arab headgear and featuring a camel.

Geri Modrell, the Snohomish County Republican chairwoman, said a volunteer had brought the bills to the fair thinking they were funny.

“I don’t think it’s funny,” said Modrell, who said she ordered the bills removed as soon as she learned about them. “They were offensive. The volunteers are being told very clearly they must not do these sorts of things.”

Right… blame it on the volunteer.

You have to ask yourself, if the Republicans can’t even control what happens at one of their booths at a county fair, why should we trust them to run our country?
