An aging white Republican who more closely resembles some sort of mold-covered swamp creature is making headlines for saying some preposterously racist shit.

As expected, Alford managed to crawl out of the giant mayonnaise jar he calls home long enough to issue a shitty semi-apology Monday. "As an aside, I also remarked that one of the original reasons behind the criminalization of the drug in the 1930s was its negative effects on society and more specifically the damaging consequences on the African American community," the 75-year-old white man said, according to CBS News. "I was wrong, I regret my comments, and I sincerely apologize to anyone whom I have hurt."
Fittingly, Darrell Pope—the president of the NAACP's Hutchinson chapter—issued his own statement calling Alford an "idiot."
