Another one bites the dust..

Another right-wing fucking idiot looney has lost her mind, and her gig.

From C&L

"More rightwing hate from the mentally disturbed. This one's name is Tera Servatius, who until recently spewed her bile on the local Raleigh airwaves." .....

RALEIGH (WTVD) -- The John Locke Foundation said Thursday a blogger for its website has resigned after posting a picture of President Obama dressed in drag....

...After she resigned, Servatius put out a written statement about what she posted.

"If it has offended anyone, I sincerely apologize. It was meant to illustrate Obama's southern political strategy, nothing more. An honest reading of the piece itself shows there is nothing offensive in it," she said.

Nothing offensive. Yeah... you know when I read this I thought well, a picture of Obama in drag, not really that offensive. Hell I've done more offensive photoshops of Bush. Well, then I saw the picture. You ready for it? Well you aren't but I'm going to post it anyway. These people are unfuckingbelievable...

2. It's not being in drag that's the problem. Satire is ok. Blatant racism is not

How long until they figure out that hating someone because of the color of his skin is just not ok?

I mean Obama in drag? Big deal. Then I saw the picture. They just can't help it. Racist to the fucking core.

My first thought was: "Obama in drag...so what?" It sounded lame but I was prepared to shrug it off when I saw it.

But then I saw the picture.

3. This is not so much about Obama as it is about what appeals to the South.

She should not apologize to our President as much as she should to Southerners and some Mid Westerners.

Back in the days of my music career I recorded a couple of film scores for this porno producer. She said an unforgettable thing. "I get the weirdest letters from the South and the Mid West." I have always remembered that.

BTW she was a HOTTIE!!!

I am looking for alternative ways to make money in music on the side (I'm a roadie) I have done a couple of indie games but never thought of scoring a porn flick. God knows they need better music

6. Another lame RW apology. That's how they do it.

"If it has offended anyone ...


Just like Limbaugh did.

As if to say ... "I didn't say anything wrong but if you took it the wrong way ... "


A non-apology apology.
