An extreme Republican Tea Party group is not backing down from a post on their website in which they compare President Barack Obama with a skunk, saying that it is satire and not offensive.
The Patriot Freedom Alliance, the Tea Party fraction of the Republican Party in Hutchinson, Kansas, put up a picture of a skunk and said the skunk has replaced the eagle as the symbol for the president.
“It is half black, half white, and almost everything it does, stinks,” the site read.

“It’s satire is what it is,” Thomas Hymer, who manages the website, told the Hutchinson News. "Satire in a politically incorrect form," he said.
President Obama’s mother was a white American and his father was a black African.
Darrell Pope, president of the Hutchinson branch of the NAACP, disagreed with Hymer and the Tea Party, saying he doesn’t see the humor in it and called it "a blatant statement of racism."

The website removed the controversial image on Monday morning.
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, a California politician came under fire in April after sending an email with a picture of three chimpanzees with Obama’s face super imposed over one of them.

There are a FEW very, very sick racist today and it is scary to think after all this time they still exist. What is so sad is they don't know how sick they are and that is the scary part. Even worse, some even claim to be religious.

Skunks are innocent, Obama isn't. Because of his dark muslim heart, I've seen pigs depict him. I protest that. Pigs are also innocent. Obama is NOT. The death of America is in his muslim heart. Mark my word. One opinion.
