And of course, not every single, solitary member of the Tea Party movement is a card carrying racist, but way too many are. If you think otherwise, just look at the signs and listen to some of the speeches at their rallies. There is a reason you don’t see Hispanics, Asians, Indians or black folk at their rallies, and it isn’t because minorities don’t live in the hinterland, because they do. And it isn’t because minorities aren’t affected by the same things everyone else is either. Wake up.
I’m going to have to agree with MM on the tea party crap. They certainly have a LOT of legitimate complaints about taxes and excessive government, but they are made up mostly of ignorant, racist nutjobs.
The RNC has a huge problem right now. Anyone legitimate is distancing themselves fro Steele & Palin and anything that they touch, which definitely includes the tea party shit. They are having something in boston as we speak with palin there and both brown and Baker are not any part of that.
The elections ove rhte next 4 years are the Republicans to lose. Palin, Steele and the nutjobs could lose them for them.
I always assume until proven wrong that everyone holds their beliefs earnestly and without malice or subterfuge. I think that ends up being right much more often than the opposite assumption.
Yeah, Biff, it will be very Jewish. We can try to outdo one another. I can tell you about how I used to rollerblade in traffic and….oh, but I’ll save it..
But the Tea Party people ARE a bunch of ignorant yahoos. They would have a lot more crediblity if they weren’t run and populated by a bunch of racist ignoramuses who can’t deal with the fact that a black Democrat is president. They can couch it behind whatever rhetoric they’d like, but there it is. They use scary words like “socialist” without a clue as to what a real socialist is, or believes, they damn the health care bill without understanding anything about it, except what the right wing media tells them. Lech is absolutely right, as is wasder.
Whatever legit complaints they have about taxation, or anything else is completely lost behind their celebration of ignorance. This is nothing like the 60’s. Exposing corruption? Where? Please.
I think this thread, and many others like it, is our little way of being like the nation as a whole, unable to hear each other.

“Plastic surgeon? Holy shit, what the hell did you look like BEFORE plastic surgery, CGar???????”
Don’t think I haven’t sued for malpractice, Biff! (The Elephant Man was based on me.)

Taking deep breath and jumping in…….
