Seriously, there is.

Okay, so I know you wouldn’t go brain surgeon shopping there, but this takes the cake.

The head of a Tea Party group in north-central Arkansas said a group leader who told a racist joke at a rally last week stepped down.

Richard Caster, the founder of the Ozark Tea Party, told HuffPost that Inge Marler, a member of the group’s steering committee, has left her position following an ice-breaker she told prior to a speech at a June 9 rally.

But, there’s really no reason to get upset about it.  “She is a gray-haired elderly lady, and I did not want to go up and yank her off stage,” said the founder of the Ozark Tea Party.

Ms. Marler, the elderly, grey-haired lady in question, said she found the racist joke on the internet and was just using it as “an icebreaker.”

Well, shoot, that makes it okay, because, hell, Honey, there’s ain’t no racists in the Ozarks.

Look, I don’t care is she’s Methuselah’s grandmother on meth, there’s no excuse for being a racist, I don’t care how thick the ice is.

And, as to be expected, Inge is a member of the Twin Lakes Republican Party, another place you would not shop for a brain surgeon.

Thanks to Sharon for the heads-up.
