Stacey Dash recently tweeted her support for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, accompanied by a patriotic swimsuit picture of herself.
But now her political viewpoint has become the subject of online attacks, with many expressing crude distaste that she isn’t endorsing President Obama – and race has become a key motivator behind the digital abuse.
“You’re an unemployed black woman endorsing Mitt Romney. You’re voting against yourself thrice. You poor beautiful idiot,” one Twitter user wrote, while @Black Voice wrote, “Stacey Dash had a perm since birth. I knew I couldn’t trust her.. lol.”
Others accused the actress of “voting for white supremacy,” claiming she “is white with a dark tan,” and calling Dash a slur of offensive names.
Several other Obama supporters even went as far as to encourage “the old hag” to “kill herself.” One suicide encourager is listed as a doctor and politically active Democrat in Washington D.C., and although he reportedly has deleted the inflammatory “kill yourself” tweet, it was captured by social media news site, Twitchy.com.
But Dash seems to be taking the backlash in stride.
“My humble opinion… EVERYONE is entitled to one,” she tweeted in response.
But the 46-year-old's plug for Romney attracted plenty of applause, too.
“Thank you for being willing to think for yourself despite what your haters have to say,” tweeted one user, while another noted, “You can NEVER, EVER (did I say never?) NEVER leave the Dem party if you r Black. Once you do, the name calling begins.”

Dems war on women?
She is 46? Wow. I thought she was a 10, but looking like that at 46 makes her a 20.
she’s a beauty, and a brave one. I read some of the tweets. WOW!
And racism is only a white thing, eh?!?!?!?!
Actress Stacey Dash Endorses Romney, Liberals Fling Racist Insults
Dash came under attack from vile Obama supporters who had no problem using racial ephithets to attack her personal choice.
“Kill yaself you old hag,” tweeted someone named Briggs Marley. His sentiments were echoed by several other bastions of tolerance.
Another genius calling himself Sherrick W. denounced Dash as “an indoor slave.” He was replying back to someone named @HelloItsBeyonce who had also used racial slurs to attack the actress: “You ready to head back to the fields, jiggaboo?” the person had said, using an offensive racial slur referring to dark-skinned black Americans.
Someone calling herself @ASvpFeefa blasted Dash using another racial slur: “TYPICAL OREO .. Voting for a white devil. #SICK”
Knowing how ridiculous some liberals can be, Dash must have anticipated the hatred that was going to come her way. She eventually started responding back to the jerks.
I wonder how Hollywood would handle a one week abstinence of its abusive, Leftwing offerings.
Oh brother, that’s JUST the kind of “doctor” we need under Obamacare. Affirmative action, anyone? /sarcasm
According to Wikipedia: Dash was born in The Bronx, New York. She is an alumna of Paramus High School in Paramus, New Jersey. Her mother, Linda, was the general manager of DME Interactive Holdings.[8] Her father was a methadone addict.[9] She is of Bajan,[10] African American, and Mexican descent,[3][11] with "clear green" eyes.
Can't find it?
Heartbreaking that this nation has come to this.
She has the most beautiful Brestisisis
Perhaps the time has come for Romney to cut an ad with multiple blacks endorsing Romney...
Condi, Allen West, Herman Cain, Dash, Greg Anthony, Mia Love...etc.
If Romney wins 9% of the black vote he’ll win several states that went for Obama in 2008.
We have an administration which has attempted to censor a film and find a pretext for putting its director in jail, all within the past month, so they can’t blame Bush;) Will they deport the director to Egypt? Who knows? But given all this, WHY WOULD ANONE IN THE FILM COMMUNITY SUPPORT OBAMA???
Play nice, Al.
Calm down, Gollum.
They ARE precious - I will give you that.
This is racists practicing their version of democracy.
This is all they (racists) know.
No. He needs real people like Stacy.
No politicians. Non wealthy middle class average looking would be even better.
