Raw Story: Most observers took President Obama’s comment that the killing of Trayvon Martin hit him particularly hard because “if I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon” as a very normal human reaction. However, at least one person — Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich — found it “disgraceful” and “appalling” that Obama was “trying to turn” the death of the African American teenager “into a racial issue.”
No, what's disgraceful and appalling is the fact the Republican party deliberately built its base with racists, has its political and philosophical power base in the confederate south, and to this day prefers the confederate flag to the American flag.
