The Height of GOP Stupidty, Part Eleven: RNC Delegate Mark Harris Is Offended By The Sight Of Mexicans At Epcot

Mark & Irene Racist
Mark Harris is a delegate from Pennsylvania to the Republican National Convention in Tampa, so you know he got his Disney on while in Florida. He also got his racism on, apparently, while visiting Epcot at Disneyworld.

It seems Mark Harris and his lovely wife, Irene, stopped in at the American Pavilion, as all good Americans, and especially God-fearing, America-loving Republicans, will do, and they were shocked to find a, gulp, Mexican working there.

Cuz you know, Mexicans can't be American, y'all.

The American Pavilion, like all the global pavilions at Epcot, showcases the different cultures in, um, America, but according to Mark and Irene's racist blog, Mark Harris complained to the staff that he was "highly offended" to find a "person from Mexico” working in the American pavilion when other nations’ pavilions were staffed by people from each respective country:
Now that the Harris' inherent racism has gone public, and viral, the GOP in Snyder County, Pennsylvania is doing cartwheels and somersaults and handstands trying to take away the focus of the delegate and his racist viewpoint.

County Commissioner Malcolm Derk said, as if it needed to be said: “Americans are people of any race, color or heritage. Cheers to the individual working at Epcot for showing what a true American looks like.”

Of course, in addition to being racists, Mark and Irene, according to their wesbite are rabidly Pro-Life, unyieldingly anti-marriage equality, and believe in the very conservative principles of the Republican platform.

In other words, they are visiting here from 1953.

Perhaps it's time they reentered the WayBack Machine and left the future to people who understand it.
