Audra Shay Wins Leadership Of Young Republicans
Remember Audra Shay? She’s was the candidate for chair of the Young Republicans groups that had this exchange on her facebook page:
Two minutes later, Piker posted again saying “Obama Bin Lauden [sic] is the new terrorist… Muslim is on there side [sic]… need to take this country back from all of these mad coons… and illegals.”
Eight minutes after that, at 2:02, Shay weighed in on Piker’s comments: “You tell em Eric! lol.”
She then de-friended some Republicans who dared to complain.

What’s the difference Slobodan Milošević and most young Republicans?
Someone once had warm feelings for Milošević.
Yet another nail in the coffin…………
STATEMENT FROM AUDRA SHAY
Dear Friends and Supporters,
Yesterday on Facebook, an unfortunate incident occurred. An individual posted two comments on my Facebook wall, the first comment arguing against big government and the second filled with racially charged comments. I responded supporting the individual’s first post, to continue the fight against big government spending. I was not aware of the racial comments until sometime later, when a third individual brought it to my attention. I immediately deleted the derogatory and outright disgusting comments and subsequently posted a statement on my Facebook Status stating that in no way, shape or form are the comments posted by other individuals a reflection of me or my beliefs as an American, a Veteran, a Mother or a Candidate. I do not, nor would I ever, condone that type of language or behavior.
Unfortunately, my opponents have now spun a web of misconception and untruths, desperately trying to paint me as a racist. Nothing could be farther from the truth. In fact, I have made it part of my Young Republican life to ensure that we did not just focus on outreach, but inclusion. Under my leadership as Chairman of the State of Louisiana’s Young Republicans, we were able to raise $90,000 for a minority outreach media campaign. Also under my leadership as Louisiana Chairman we brought the largest minority delegation to the YRNF Convention in 2007.
It is a disgrace that these types of political attacks are taking place and once again, it proves that my opponents will stoop to the lowest levels to steal this election from the jaws of victory. Our Team is one of honor and integrity. We take this service to heart and will not allow others to tarnish our reputations. If you have any questions or concerns about this matter or any other matters, please email, call or Facebook message me. I’m always available.
Ha Ha! LOL! “Coon.” Funny stuff.
It is a disgrace, I tell you!
wow, that linked article to your name, Anoni, doesn’t have a single fact to back up that reactionary author’s claim! it’s all innuendo and emotion, zero substance.
what, that the admin appointee wants to have the government push people ‘gently’ into becoming better people? sheeeeeiitt, the Post writer makes it sound like nothing of the sort has ever occurred…..don’t we already have that with our penal code?
btw – the opinion page at the NY Post is as credible as Joe Isuzu. hell, look at the lock-step remarks of the commenters! lol!
