Conservative Think Tank Apologizes For Posting Image of Obama Eating KFC In Sex Chains
John Hood, president of the conservative North Carolina-based John Locke Foundation, has apologized for a very special graphic that one of his bloggers, "Hot Talk WRNN co-host Tara Servatius," included in her post for the think tank's blog this week. What is the controversy? All it did was show "President Obama in chains and drag with a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken." What is the controversy? Everyone loves Kentucky Fried Chicken! And look, Tara Servatius says she "didn't think about the racial implications of the picture when I posted it. I simply don't think in those terms." She's a fun one.
In an exchange with Myrtle Beach'sThe Sun News, Servatius explains that her graphic of President Obama in chains and drag eating a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken "was meant to illustrate Obama's southern political strategy, nothing more." Come again?
At the time, I was searching for a picture of the president in drag to illustrate his southern political strategy of courting young voters, 70 percent of whom support gay marriage. It was one of the first photos to come up on Google Images. Regrettably, I didn't think about the racial implications of the picture when I posted it. I simply don't think in those terms. Unfortunately some people do.
It was one of the first photos to come up on Google Images! Well, great, it looks like we've found the actual stupidest person in the world today. Now let's all have twenty drinks.
