I'm disappointed that Brian Battaglia was forced to issue this "apology", despite the fact that it was made under extreme duress by the Penn State administration.
But the funniest statement in this entire article was the following:
Allies President Sara Ryan said she was concerned about the photographs depicting an "oversodomized frat pledge" because it is an insult to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and allied community at the university.
Are we to take from her quote that Sara Ryan supports oversodomizing fraternity pledges? Are their any homosexual activities that Sara Ryan opposes? Fisting? Think about it.

When's the last time a campus group apologized for something they said or did that offended white males?

He's a Dumba$$, its time they find a new conservative leader there. This only makes conservatism a harder sell to minorities who have been brainwashed by the socialists in America.

Brian Battaglia is toast. He's radioactive. He will never hold another position in a Republican Party organization again. He is an embarassment to the party. He should resign tomorrow and get it over with.

I think this guy actually did the smart think here by apologizing. As I said in some detail in another thread, blackface and the Klan just are not funny. All too many blacks believe that the Republican Party is a home to racists and that many conservative whites are closet racists. We don't need to feed that perception. Really we don't. I'm not saying that they can't be critical of leftist black activists or other members of the student government but this is not the way to do it.

Let's all join together, hold our hands and sing "Kumbaya"! "Racism", whatever that is, with all the signs of worship of the idea, unites us across the political party boundaries! Ah, Utopia!
