ALLENTOWN, Pa. - The leader of a statewide group of college Republicans has been forced to resign after posting racially insensitive comments about Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama on the Internet.
Adam LaDuca, 21, the former executive director of the Pennsylvania Federation of College Republicans, wrote on his Facebook page in late July that Obama has "a pair of lips so large he could float half of Cuba to the shores of Miami (and probably would.)"
LaDuca, who previously had called Martin Luther King Jr. a "pariah" and a "fraud," also wrote: "And man, if sayin' someone has large lips is a racial slur, then we're ALL in trouble."
The College Republicans asked LaDuca to resign after his remarks were publicized by the Pennsylvania Progressive, a blog written by a Democratic committeeman from Berks County. The group announced LaDuca's resignation on its Web site Friday.

I’m waiting for hell to freeze over as well.
There was. Democrats created federal funding for slum housing, Obama became state senator and his friends became slum landlords. Check it out. Corruption all around them for getting funds and not maintaining the properties properly.
My humble appologies for my error.
Hogwash!
Civil rights aside, he would have been the same Commie sympathizer.
"You can't talk about solving the economic problem of the Negro without talking about billions of dollars. You can't talk about ending the slums without first saying profit must be taken out of slums. You're really tampering and getting on dangerous ground because you are messing with folk then. You are messing with captains of industry
Now this means that we are treading in difficult water, because it really means that we are saying that something is wrong
with capitalism
There must be a better distribution of wealth and maybe America must move toward a democratic socialism.
--Martin Luther King in Frogmore, South Carolina, November 14, 1966.
No apology necessary. We're all on the same team.
