GOP Claims Racism Is Over In Misguided Rosa Parks Tribute
On Sunday, the Republican National Committee tweeted out an ill-advised tribute to civil rights icon Rosa Parks, praising the late activist for “her role in ending racism.”

The message was widely mocked by Twitter users who pointed out that the end of racism was news to them…
The RNC did correct their Tweet later with:
Previous tweet should have read “Today we remember Rosa Parks’ bold stand and her role in fighting to end racism.”
Some of these guys spend way to much time listening to the clowns in their Tea Party wing, and sometimes that message leaks through.
Might just be a good idea for the RNC to not say anything to anybody about race as they invariably seem to either muff it, or say something truly offensive…
Even when they don’t mean to.
