The chairwoman of the Delta County Republican Party who was accused of favoritism and posting a racist meme on her Facebook page has resigned.
Party officials were upset after a photo compared President Barack Obama to a chimpanzee appeared on Linda Sorenson web page, the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel reported.
Sorenson stepped down after an accountability meeting was convened by the county’s Republican Central Committee investigating the allegations. She announced her decision to resign in an email to supporters.
The committee was investigating allegations that Sorenson and others made that her Facebook page was “hacked” and whether she violated party rules by endorsing a primary candidate. Sorenson said her Facebook page was hacked, but Colorado Party Chairman Steve House said that was not the case. …

I think more of chimpanzees than that.
WHAT? She insults a chimpanzee and has to resign!
What have we come to?
Possibly 94 percent identical (the “98 percent” figure is a lie), but they are finding more divergence all the time.
She owes the chimps an apology.
That’s speciesist. They never said what color monkey, did they?
“...any racism, intended or unintended...”
Unintended racism? WTF is that? Is that better, or worse than a micro-aggression?
They already have. Have you seen Moochelle lately?
Uh-oh! Now you have to resign! ;-)
Yeah, I can sleep at night well knowig they are ruining the counry but “we are better than they are”.
#### that. Do everything above and below ground to win the election.
Sick of this gentleman loser crap.
“At least we ge to hold our heads up high”
For what, the chopping block?
Well now ...
A chimpanzee would know better than to force the Army to pay for sex change operations for mentally ill soldiers.
After a Jidhadist terrorist shoots a bunch a people, a chimpanzee wouldn’t whine about how we have a problem.....with guns.
If a chimpanzee controlled the Internet, he wouldn’t give it away.
This woman owes chimpanzees a sincere apology, she should be ashamed of herself. What did they ever do to you, lady?
To employ any derogatory and slanderous communications TRULY based on the color of a person’s skin, and not misinterpreted as being so by language twisters with an agenda, is unconscionable in this day and age. That means white upon black, blacks upon whites, whites upon oriental, every instance regardless of the crossing. It is proof positive you have no debating skills for a one-on-one.
And our resting on those "laurels" is what has allowed them to beat the crap out of the Nation/People/Constitution.
If you're too polite to fight fire with fire you don't belong in the war. (That's a generalization and not aimed at you).
It would not be an insult if the PC crowd did not believe the comparison to be apt. No one felt that incessantly comparing GWBush to a chimpanzee had any racial overtones. That comparison of a Negro to a chimp is regarded as hatefully racist indicates that the comparison is deeply established in the minds of the implorers.
Gutless... Completely gutless.
The depicted President W as a chimp all the time.
Mocking his looks.
Same thing done with obummer.
Big deal.
