Tea Party/Republican Official E-mails Racist Photoshop Fail

I thought about not posting this. But it is everywhere
by now, and the ugliness should be exposed.

At work, there's a lady who is friends with my boss who sends all manner of emails. Like a person who only just discovered the internet (but who has in fact been using it for a decade), she forwards anything that passes through her mailbox to her whole email list. Recipes. Jokes about old age. Jokes about menopause. URGENT!!!!1!!11!!! virus warnings. Urban legends passed along as fact (Snopes says it's true!!!).  But mostly, she passes along political emails.

Not just political news, or even political opinion. We're talking full-on conspiracy theory, Obama is a radical Muslim, Marxist, socialist, communist, statist, evil, anti-Christ. And he's a radical Christian. Plus, wasn't he born in Kenya? His grandmother said so! And what about that birth certificate? On top of this, she's not beyond sending something overtly racist, rather than that other (barely) more subtle stuff. So don't tell me an old lady can't be a racist. And no, of course this doesn't lend any credence to racism within the tea party. Perish the thought.
