It seems as though...
...calling the Tea Party a bunch of racists is getting popular again. I still haven't heard a single example of their racist ways but what the heck, you don't need logic today, do you?
I could call Obama a big plate of spaghetti but without a meatball on his head, my case looses some steam.
Once again, I invite anyone who thinks of the Tea Party as racists to present one single example backing up their claim. Go ahead, try it, I dare ya.

Professor Christopher Parker of the WISER Institute, at the University of Washington, released the results of a political science poll studying racism in American politics. Here is an excerpt from the report: “America is definitely not beyond race. For instance, the Tea Party, the incipient movement that claims to be committed to reining in what they perceive as big government, appears to be motivated by more than partisanship and ideology. Approximately 45% of Whites either strongly or somewhat approve of the movement. Of those, only 35% believe Blacks to be hardworking, only 45 % believe Blacks are intelligent, and only 41% think that Blacks are trustworthy. Perceptions of Latinos aren’t much different. While 54% of White Tea Party supporters believe Latinos to be hardworking, only 44% think them intelligent, and even fewer, 42% of Tea Party supporters believe Latinos to be trustworthy …” The report reveals that Tea Party members are 36 percent more likely to be racially resentful than non-Tea Party supporters. According to Professor Parker, "While it's clear that the tea party in one sense is about limited government, it's also clear from the data that people who want limited government don't want certain services for certain kinds of people. Those services include health care."
LMFAO!!! Once again, I ask for one example of a racist act or statement that can be attributed to the Tea Party.
I'm curious, what does the WISER Institue have to say about the percentage of blacks who voted for a mulatto president. Hmm.... statistics are so telling, arent they?
Gotta go, laughing too hard.
You cant win with you.
Sure you can, be here the day I'm wrong.
By the way, what would the Tea Party think of me? Not much considering my views on most socially conservative issues. But, that STILL doesn't make them racist.
Creda Crenshaw recently ran for Illinois senate in the Generals last week. She is a black lady, an accountant and also a wife and mom. She ran as a republican and was fought tooth and nail to be kept off the ballot by the democrats. Oh ya one more thing...................SHE IS A TEA PARTY MEMBER. On this premise if the tea party is racist, I guess someone needs to explain to them the rules of racism.
Aw dude, you beat me to that punch!
