Airway Heights, Washington Mayor Patrick Rushing has a history of making racially offensive comments. His last comments were directed at the Commander and Chief and the First Lady.
Why is this important?
Mayor Patrick Rushing, of Air Heights, Washington, is refusing to resign after posting Facebook comments referring to Michelle Obama as "gorilla face" and President Barack Obama as "monkey man."
