FRANKFORT: The Republican Party of Kentucky has asked a state House candidate to drop out of the race after he posted several photos on Facebook, depicting President Barack Obama and the first lady as monkeys. Republican Party of Kentucky chairman Mac Brown and House Republican Floor Leader Jeff Hoover both signed the letter. It says while Dan Johnson has a First Amendment right to free speech, elected leaders “must hold ourselves and those with whom we serve to a higher standard”. “As leaders we are expected to not only understand our rights but also exercise good judgment in how we use them to express ourselves,”they wrote.
