Right wingers just can't keep their extremists in check!

http://www.sodahead.com/united-states/lets-put-the-white-back-in-white-house-get-rid-of-these-colored-folk/question-4744024/
Sodahead is one of FAUX news "stealth" sites. Its a public polling site (laughably) that has a wildly RW bent and following. Some months after joining and arguing with RW nutjobs there, a side banner appeared on the site claiming SodaHead as a "proud partner of Fox News". I only know from RW'ers at various workplaces that they advertise heavily on RW extremist sites, promote just about any and all anti-Obama and anti-democrat questions posted, and suspect they use the false "statistics" on Fox News when more reliable sources don't match their agenda.
But this vomited itself up just a few minutes ago! I reported this to SH administrators for racist/hateful content immediately, so the link will probably soon go nowhere.

but I have no doubt that there are many right wingnuts who would say this. I have met some of them.
