Stop saying "they're not racist"...

With all the gutter politics the repukes have thrown out about food stamps, saying Obama favors "European" policies, birther jokes, corporate media has said over and over that they are not racist. 

It has been on full display at the convention minus the white sheets. You've got attendees pulling obscene racist antics toward an employee of CNN. The outright maneuvering of delegates from places like the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico are getting better seats so that wide camera shots will show the lie that the Repub party consists of differing ethnicities. That's been highlighted by several news outlets. Then there is the incident of a Puerto Rican delegate was literally silenced by loud "USA" chants when she attempted to give her speech. 

Over and over, the mantra has been "they're not racist". I've heard it said so on both MSNBC and CNN. It's almost as if they're having to work hard as hell to convince America that the repuke party isn't racist. 

We know it's a lie and I think inwardly, they know it, too.  

It's past time they stop insisting the repukes are not racist.
