Is There Racism in the TEA Parties?

Of course there is. But now, it's less one racist.
But Williams was just getting started. Also Wednesday, he took his “non-racist” commentary to the next level, penning his version of an “open letter” to Abe Lincoln … from the “colored people…” in which he accuses black people, or sorry “coloreds,” of not wanting to work, of “striving for welfare,” and wanting to buy “flat screen TVs” with white people’s stolen money. Seriously. It’s an apparent attempt at satire, I suppose, but which aligns perfectly with the views of the tea party movement, which is by and large a mash-up of Libertarians who want to get rid of Social Security, disappointed Palin cultists and old geezer racists who believe Obama only got himself elected so he can steal all the white people’s money and hand it out in the hood.

  2. Good point, Anon. In fact, there are more racists in the NAACP than any of the Tea Parties

  4. Capps, to quote the Bible, Remove the plank in thine own eye before removing the speck in thy brothers eye. The NAACP, and many on the left love to cry racism, whether it's there or not, all the while ignoring their own. It's called hypocrisy. You know, what Conservatives are always accused of?

    BTW, LOVED that PPS you sent! It came when I needed a chuckle the most. Say hey to the wife for me..

  6. Um, yeah, you might have wanted to wait until after it was proven not to be racism. Keep up your not so quiet desperation.

  7. Well, Capps. Later in that tape, she does call republicans racist by inference. While I agree that she was wrongly fired, she's no angel.

  9. She did acknowledge acting/being racist. The fact the white acted poorly is another issue.
