A growing number of Nebraska elected officials — both Republicans and Democrats — are discovering at least one area of bipartisan agreement: Pat McPherson should probably just quit.
The embattled member of the Nebraska State Board of Education has resisted calls to resign over posts on his blog that described President Barack Obama as a “half breed.”
McPherson has said that he does not intend to resign and that someone else wrote the offending posts. He has declined to reveal the writer’s identity.
The entire Omaha Public Schools board approved a resolution Wednesday calling on him to resign, and the Omaha City Council is scheduled to vote on its own resolution next week.
