OBAMA DELEGATE WHO CALLED BLACKS “MONKEYS” NOT RESIGNING AS OBAMA CAMPAIGN ANNOUNCED


[wbbm780.com]

Ben Labolt, a spokesman for the Obama campaign, says that, on Monday, Linda Ramirez-Sliwinski told the campaign she would step down as a delegate for the Senator at the Democratic National Convention.

That came after Carpentersville police issued Ramirez Sliwinski a $75 disorderly conduct ticket for calling some African-African neighborhood children "monkeys" as they were climbing a tree.

Ramirez-Sliwinski, however has other ideas: She is NOT resigning as a super-delegate pledged to Obama.

Where is the mainstream media outrage?

Clearly, McCain and Clinton surrogates (including Bill Clinton and Geraldine Ferraro) have made far more mild comments and were widely criticized by the mainstream media as “playing the race card”.

Yet this incident on the part of an Obama delegate has received no national network coverage at all.

Double standard? You be the judge.
