Only in Texas...

http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/Racist_Obama_Buttons_Sold_at_Texas_Republican_Convention

Where to start with this one...... This button was sold at the Texas Republican Convention by a man named Jonathan Alcox of Florida , who rented a booth and thought it would be in great taste to sell these racist and ignorant pins. The Republican party is rejecting the $1500 from the sales of the pin; and is donating the money to charity. They are prohibiting any further sales from this man at any Republican Convention, which by the way, is a little too late. Don't they do any background checks on these vendors, or at least ask for a sample of what they will be peddling? Besides, haven't they ever heard the saying: "Perception is Reality?" Chow!
