Sweet, sweet relief
Oops:
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — A Republican group in Alabama is apologizing after accidentally using a picture of the GOP elephant that contained Ku Klux Klan imagery.
The Lawrence County Republican Party intended to post an image of the GOP elephant on its Facebook page, but ended up using one in which the white spaces between the animal’s legs were drawn to resemble hooded Klansmen.
A party official said the image was taken from the results of a Google search and that the image was immediately replaced once the mistake was detected.
It’s telling that no one at that Alabama GOP HQ noticed it, now innit?
“I would like to offer a deep and sincere apology for a picture that temporarily appeared on this page last night. A google search picture of a GOP elephant was used and later found to have hidden images that do not represent the views or beliefs of the Lawrence County Republican Party,” Shannon Terry wrote in a Facebook post apologizing for the use of the image.
“As chairman I take full responsibility for the error,” Terry added.

Kinda hard to miss the hoods, but I’m sure their apologies were heartfelt. Maybe they need to admit and apologize for their long history of racism, but they will not. It’s always about suppressing the darker skin tones with these guys…

It might have been a “mistake” if they resisted adding eyeholes to the Klan hoods. The Lawrence County Republicans know exactly who they’re signaling.

In what seems to always be the case with those type of deplorables, they’re only sorry that they got caught being deplorable human beings. It’s the same group of moronic individuals who go around shouting ‘let’s go brandon,’ whenever they see or hear President Joe Biden think they’re being clever by not really saying f*ck joe biden.
Day after day here in alabamistan, the rubes (usually bored white boomer retirees), go around complaining about ‘the coloreds having it so good’ while numerous opportunities to possibly enter into the 21st century and advance as a society pass us by due to some people’s ignorance, unfounded anger and fear.

R White, as usual I think you nailed it: it’s always about being caught when they are dog whistling (or dog air horning, and is that a verb?); I appreciate the perspective from behind the enemies lines.

“Only sorry they got caught.” That’s the whole unvarnished truth.
