The GOP's Pledge .... new observations
The other day, after a quick pass through the GOP Pledge, I noticed that you don't see any people of color (other than John Boehner).

But, some one responded that it turns out that on page 12, if you zoom the image to about 600%, there might be a latino woman, and a black woman in the back of the auditorium.

So I began looking at every image with ZOOM. But as I was going through the ZOOM process on every image, I noticed something else.

Cowboy hats. 5 Cowboy hats. You don't need to zoom to find them. And so, if you want to find a person of color, you need ZOOM, you want to find cowboy hats, they are easy to find.

Are these right wing maniacs serious????

1. The "Pledge" is a diversion.
Look at them theirselves.

3. I do agree ... but it is a useful tool
for us ...

The GOP stands for nothing ... and this is one more example.

Although, I think it would be great fun if the media picked up on my simple point ... more cowboy hats than people of color.

Talk about out of touch.
