As a black man and veteran, I am glad I stop drinking the "Kool-aid" and began to think for myself. Discovering that the current Democrat party are the true racists! Looking to minorities to boost their own agendas, but NOT to create an environment to help them achieve and prosper.
maddow and matthews are grasping at straws......the word "racist' is their saviour because they can't argue the issues....they know that obama is taking us down the road to bankrupcy and are clinging to anything they can find to keep from admitting this......hence "racism"
Progressives do not really believe we Tea Party people are psychotic. They see us as real threats because we are on to their game. Our message of small government, personal responsibility and personal strength is a huge threat to their doctrine of personal dependence upon government -- therefore, they call us names.
what a bunch of fools ! No wonder We aren't a super power any more ! bunch of idiots praying at the alter of Rush Limpdick, Sham Hammity, Glen Buck, while they cash in and we get screwed over by global investors ! Yeah, great work you lemmings, you racist illiterates !
The tea party is obviously racist and silently welcomes racists in it's party. Don't let their silence fool you into thinking what they want you to think. If you side with them, you side with and defend their overt racism.
TP = RACISM, VIOLENCE, CORP WELFARE .. now MURDER ? Montage of TP urging CALL to ARMS & 2cnd Amend Remedies ! GOP: Patriotism or TERRORISM ? See vid at: otherdudeproductions on Youtube. Republican Leaders advocate MURDER - just in case Election Day doesn't go their way. They've declared WAR... not against "tyrants" but against our elected officials and political process. WAKE UP people.. this is not a Party. Hateful rhetoric often has violent yet predictable consequences. )
I get that the album is called "Don't Tread on Me" just like the motto on all the flags with rattlesnakes but 311 would never involve themselves with these dip shit Teabaggers.
"Those who kill their own children and discriminate daily against them because of the color of their skin; those who let the murderers of blacks remain free, protecting them, and furthermore punishing the black population because they demand their legitimate rights as free men — how can those who do this consider themselves guardians of freedom?" -Ernesto "Che" Guevara Lynch
How is the Tea Party racist? This title doesn't make sense. The only reason you don't see too many black people is because a majority of black people are democrat and have been victims of the democrat party for years.
@mikestermad well when there are signs that read "Niggar" at your protests, we black americans get the feeling your racists. When confederate battle flags are flown, we get the feeling your racists. When talk of socialism conviently happens when a black man is elected president, knowing full well the racist white southern establishment tried the same tactic against MLK, we get the feeling that you are racists.
@meryanoneill Nigger isnt spelled with an "a". Its spelled with an "e". The reason you get the feeling that Tea Partiers are racist is because you keep filling your brains with what you hear on the news. The media is left. You're not going to hear the real story. Whats happening is that Obama supporters are showing up at Tea Parties posing as a Tea Partier and yelling racial slurs and holding up racist signs. Obama supporters are doing this primarily to make the Tea Party look racist. But.......
when you've been a member of the democratic party for so long, its hard for people like yourself to see the truth. And read up on the history of confederate battle flags, you'd be suprised to learn they're not racist. You've just been fed a line of BS all your life. Im sure you're the kind of person that believes AIDs was created by the CIA and that crack was planted in the ghettos by the government to keep the black man down, right? Read up on the facts and pull yourself out of victimhood.
youtube.com/watch?v=8zNbWtl4wgM&feature=related This is the real story. Oh, by the way she got fired for not being so fair and balanced as she should have been. I can see NOVEMBER from my house. HA. Losers.
To call the tea party movement racist is extremely stupid. There are some black people at nearly every tea party. Just because it's not 50/50 doesn't mean it's not racist. How about the NAACP? Are they racist because they're all black people? Why aren't you idiots imterviewing them and calling them racist. The tea party movement would be just as strong with the same people it has now even if Hillary clinton had won the election and proposed the things obama has.
@Bcroft39 1. Never call a person an idiot then misspell a word. 2. Ive seen plenty of racist attitudes spilled by the tea party. 3. look up the founding of the NAACP and what political atmosphere it took place in, then maybe you'd know why the membership was mostly black.
@meryanoneill WOW! You're gonna kick me for hitting the M when I meant to hit the N. What a brillant person you truly are!!!!LMAO..You've got idiots in every crowd in the world. But just because you've seen some racism doesn't mean the Tea Party is a racial movement against a black president. Are the black tea partiers racist? The Republican party helped form the NAACP but that has nothing to do with why they are mostly black. The meaning of the letters NAACP says it all.
@meryanoneill How about BET (Black Entertainment) channel, United Negro College Fund or Ms. Black America. I bet you don't consider any of these racist. WHY? Because they're black and not white. BTW. I now know for FACT that YOU have NEVER been to a tea party. So quit lying to try and make it look like you know more than you actually do.
Yeah that black guy looked like a racist to me. Also for you anti tea party knuckleheads, when you see the poster of Obama in whiteface, its not some play on Al Joson, its from Batman the Dark Knight, Heath Leger played the part of the psycho liar. Anyone remember that? You people are gonna cry wolf too much with you racist allegations and pretty soon people will become immune to it. Just cause one doesn't like Obama and his socialistic policies does not mean one is a racist.
Snatch you wouldnt know a marxist if he slapped you
I have friends that are black that are very much tea party members a doctored pro. vid. is not reallity.Tea party believes in freedom,God,and capitalism is what built this country
This person is trumpeting opionions of the tparty as facts without any evidence to support them. I can trumpet any theory about possible groups hating Obama because he is black and box any group into that theory that I want. There has been no racism from the tparty apart from a few people holding up some signs in bad taste.
We don't even have a government. It is primarily a ruling body that rules us by changing the rules to further the ruling body's desires of a one world government. We Rule? You Rule? No, THEY RULE!
RACISTS are Obama and his comrades, who protect thugs commiting voter intimidation because they are black. RACISTS are those who voted for a U.S. hating Marxist like Obama because he's black. RACISTS are those who want to kill white babies. RACISTS are those who see everything through race-colored glasses. Thinking Americans, including those in the Tea Party movement, are NOT racists. They will vote for a black, white, pink or blue person as long as that person is good for the country.
Calling someone a marxist/socialist when you have no understanding of those political and economic models is just as blatantly ignorant as if you called him a nigger. Every political and economic system that has ever failed has done so at the hands of greedy bastards. Capitalism will be no different.
@SnatchTease: Capitalism died a long time ago; it was murdered by large corporations and DC lobbyists. This country will fail because of Corporate Socialism.
You obviously do not understand any of these concepts.
If you think you can stand toe to toe with me for a battle of political perspicacity...then bring it on.
W = O; therefore O = W. Freedom is the answer, what's your question?
That's the point of capitalism: large corporations, or the result of no regulation. Ultimate competition results in one winner......Where's your argument.
I'm not for corporate socialism, quite the contrary; however, simply stating corporate socialism is the cause of large corporations and DC lobbyists is dismissive of the overall nature of capitalism to begin with.
@JHancock1776 Seriously, your the one with the 'understanding' issues. Capitalism is when corporations are privetly owned with little to no interference from Govt. No, even though this sounds great, it is extremely vulnerable to greed at the expense of people with less money. Unregulated companies, show time and time again, that if our govt. does NOT keep them in check, they will go on an arseraping spree in order to max out profits at any cost. Need I mention the guy told he was a 'dog policy'
@SnatchTease The problem is not greed, greed is just the desire for more. What is wrong with that? The problem comes from the philosophy. Socialism dose not fail because of greed. It fails because it is flawed. Same thing goes for all the philosophy's that put the collective "Society " Before the individual. Capitalism is the only one that protects the rights of the individual.
1:36 - I love how this guy elegantly explains EXACTLY what the tea party is about and the bitches just hear what they want to hear. You can lie to yourself all you want bitches. It'll catch up to you. Lie beget lies and corruption begets corruption. Don't think all your vermin is going to save you when the shit hits the fan.
why do they keep doing this? I'm a black tea party member. The camera only sees what it wants. Obama is wrong not because he's black, but the change he want infringes on our freedom as americans. It's we the people, I the president!!!
So, Tea Parties AREN'T racist, but they seem to be the best place to go to get pictures of racist signs? Where else do you see people carrying signs like these? Are they TROLLS? C'mon, admit it, racism has been waiting 40 years to do this!
What racist signs...? I didn't see anything that I was offended by! what offends me are people who constantly uses racism as an excuse for not having a complete grasp on the world around them!
I'm Libertarian - we've been bitching about all of them for 40 years.
It is unfortunate that all of you big-government lovers only bitch and moan when one "side" pisses you off. The fact is they are screwing all of us...even the people they "propose" to help.
This is the United States of Corporate America and only the wealthy are helped.
What conclusions can we draw from teabagger demographics? Uhm...black people don't watch Fox so they don't get the marching orders? Sounds kinda stupid doesn't it?
It's funny that none of these "racism" videos actually address the Tea Party's message which is that there be government fiscal accountability and lower taxes. How is this goal a racist one?
tiger woods ate an orange on larry king live! I know! I saw it!!! Racism cards for sale! Get yours Today at putdown liberty media! These glow in the dark so you know your safe from the HATE! Call before they're gone gone gone.....
Surely there were people of different sexual orientation during Jesus' day and he neither condemned or acknowledged any of those practices. Instead his target for sin could apply to anyone. Surely, anyone's lifestyle should be a conversation be that person and their Creator and NOT anyone else. We never know what between the time of conception and the moment of now. And where did they buy the worse looking stereotypical Black man at the rally. I bet he's not EVEN from Chicago!!! Luv from TX
What filthy, uncouth, idiotic dog would actively seek to discriminate against homosexuals? Any law that implies homosexuality is "immoral" or "wrong" is ipso facto fascist and therefore the writers do not have the moral authority to enforce and write such laws. It is one of those victimless crimes that should be abolished.
i live in Memphis tn. I go to hockey games and it is mostly white. is hockey racist? The tea parties don't turn African-Americans away. its not like they are not invited. they just don't come. Its their prerogative.
This has nothing to do with race! You Obummer supporters don't have a clue on economics! Obama already raised 25 taxes, you uninformed little people. Ever hear of CIFTA, VAT tax, Cap and trade tax doubling your energy cost? 15 million unemployed but amensty is in the works? Welcome to the Obamination taxation Nation. Maybe you Democratic pansies need the Government to provide for you, but the rest of us will keep our Constitution and our freedom. Left-wingers are the biggest whiners!
obama Voting Obama in created a shit storm of racism. But, only for libs. Its Obamas policies that are the problem. If Mrs. Clinton would have been voted in, and implimented the same policies, libs would say, the opposition is sexist and bigots. No, If reagan would have tried this shit, he would have been opposed too. Just like Carter was. Stop using the race card!!! ITS HIS POLICIES!!! NOT HIS RACE!!!
Read the entire wiki article on SPLC. It will show you the other side of this scam.
BTW, gotta love how this video is one big 'minorities' card. As if people who have a huge lobby in congress, the federal judiciary, and academia need to be given special treatment.
@mssnrykd I say everything with a straight face. I have a specific purpose for what I do, in both the Lessons I post and those that I don't. Appreciate the comment, though.
Predictable indictment of the tea party members based not so much on the content of their united statements concerning the republic and constitution but more on the color of their skin. The true racists are those who cry "racist" in order to drown out the message. As for gays, the number of those alarmed by the flagrant constitutional disregard of this administration is increasing daily. My lesbian niece has just enthusiastically joined the ranks of those voicing their dissent.
I had a party at my home two weeks ago that was attended by nearly 75 people, of which one person was black. Does that make me a racist? I am not affiliated with any political party, so please repliers, don't make it about politics.
What a stupid reporter. She, like the rest of the Liberal Media, think that just because a person is black they think a certain way and if they're white they think a certain way. Did that stupid reporter read the percentage of blacks who voted for Obama? Of course, most blacks don't support the Tea Party but it's not because of race it's because most blacks are liberal.
Haha, this is stupid. This video uses a quote from the KKK as a moral compass of society.
Not all the Tea Parties are racists, but it is responsible for it's message being distorted and random people misusing it. Because when your goal is to remove government, their will be people out there that will jump on the bandwagon to destory this country.
You have to be careful what you ask for because the government could be replaced with facists. How else did hitler get into power?
@JHancock1776 Roosevelt was a progressive republican you moron. You obviously don't even understand how the political spectrum works. Fascism isn't even on the same side. Fascism is to conservative as communist is to liberal.
@Venue0309 The tea party movement started under Bush & in a large part due to Ron Paul. It has nothing to do with being republican or racist. It is important to note though, that sold-out political whores such as Palin & Glen Beck have come in to infiltrate the grass-roots movement. The core of this movement, the roots of it, began with opposition to the policy of endless wars in the middle east and the implementation of legislation such as the Patriot Act. Many are independent free-thinkers.
@Buckeyefarmer With all due respect, the time where everyone heard of the tea party movement was after Obama was president. Remember on fox news where everyone was buying all this tea to dump and protest with? Thats when it started. IF there was a tea party movement before this one, then I am going to need to see proof that it had the exact same message...and even 1/100th of the members the current movement has.
@doppleganger07 It was small scattered groups. The National Tea Party movement was after Obama, but many of the smaller groups involved got started before Bush left.
@Buckeyefarmer I wish the Ron Paul folks would quit taking credit for what is not theirs. This movement has always been about increased Gov. control. And I'm pretty sure it started with families.
@Venue0309 Who's seeking to remove the government? Last I checked they were only seeking to remove the people in it, not start over. Our rights are consistently being restricted and trampled on by both Demicans and Republicrats. The Fascists are already in power, and we currently have a totalitarian state of Democrats. At this point they don't even pretend to show any means of compromise. It is abundantly clear that something is wrong when our checks and balances are usurped by those in power.
so i hear that black congressman were called rascist names at the capitol by tea party protesters.. hmmm, with all those cameras and mics you'd think there would be some evidence of this since the media is reporting it as fact. you keep hearing about violence yet i have not seen any video of violence at these rallies except sciu goons attacking protesters. keep spreading the lie. attack the messenger when you cannot attack the message.
Here is what I do not get. Where was this movement in the 8 years Bush was spending like we had all the money in the world. Please tell me where was the tea party then? If the had, then it would not seem as racist. If you dont like taxes and spending, then do it on ALL fronts, not when you have a black president that is spending like crazy. Republicans are the blame for this....they created a monster and there is no return
They went by the name of multiple different Grass Roots groups. This happens to be one subject that draws many groups together. The difference is that under Obama we have spent more in his administration than every previous year put together. A bailout that did little (if anything) and "health care reform" that does little to reform health care. Unless of course you mean reforming the care part. Substantially increasing taxes for us for 4 years without any product.
Actually Clinton created the housing bubble that burst during Bush Jr's reign. Bush Jr. simply didn't create another bubble to replace it. Honestly before the recession, did you buy "Made in the USA" the majority of the time? Did you even think to look? You want to blame someone for the economic problem? Look in the mirror, and then look at your friends, family, etc. Few can say yes I did buy "Made in the USA". No it's not all Obama's fault for the economy, he's simply adding to the problem.
Obama claimed Change, the only change I've really seen thus far is a crappy health care reform. Otherwise its the same BS. I said when Bush was elected both times, and when Clinton was elected both times. Don't vote for Demicans or Republicrats, they're both in part to blame for this. NAFTA, GAT, and all the other crap. We need to throw them all out. Obama is making the same mistakes Carter did in many ways. Carter was smart enough to realize that more restrictions and taxes were bad though.
@donscrizz This monster is older than that. Also, spending is controlled by the CONGRESS. Further, Have you seen the graph comparing the deficit between Bush and Obama? Obama is much farther in the hole than Bush.
@mssnrykd Obama hasn't even had a full term as president so you can't really make any comparisons. Bush increased the nations national deficit as a percent of the GDP by 20% in his second term alone, that's more than any president since World War II. Bush left a huge mess Obama is trying to clean it up now. Look at history, democrat presidents since WWII have lowered the deficit as a percent of the GDP while republicans have increased it.
@fenrir270 It's funny how you teabaggers blame Obama's spending when he is forced to give bailouts to prevent the collapse of our economy, a mess started long before his election. I hate the idea of bailouts but they were a necessary evil, 10% of American jobs would've been effected by General Motors closing.
@mssnrykd I have no problem with people protesting for something they believe in, but I do reserve the ability to point out when what they fight for is wrong, misguided and foolish. Your comment is sophomoric at best and makes very little sense.
Yes if GM shut down parts would be needed, in much less demand, jobs producing them would be in less demand in countless industries, as a result we would see downsizing, layoffs, and unemployment. The effect on the economy would be catastrophic.
@fenrir270 I'm using HIS offices own projections. You're right it might not be that bad, Congress might suddenly get their spending under control, and pigs might fly.
@mssnrykd Really, what you said was "Obama is much farther in the hole than Bush" that statement is completely incorrect. Let's try using facts not guesses, and ignorant statements with no truth, then maybe you can be taken seriously. Here are the facts, since WWII democrats have lowered the deficit as a percent of the GDP and Republicans have increased it (except Eisenhower, and one of Nixon's terms). None close to as much as Bush who increased it 20% in 1 term, leaving it at 83.4% for Obama.
@fenrir270 "Let's try using facts not guesses" How about estimates?
"democrats have lowered the deficit as a percent of the GDP" Democrat Presidents? Or congress? Congress is the one that really controls spending. Look at a bar graph of yearly budget deficit, you can see when marked increases when September 11th happened and when Pelosi and pals took control.
@mssnrykd The House is the part of the legislative branch that originates bills of revenue, but a law can not be passed unless with a presidential signature or a 2/3 majority in both houses. Democrats haven't had a 2/3 majority in both houses since 1964 during these years there was also a democratic president. Guess what happened to the deficit as a percent of the GDP, it decreased. You have no understanding of economics or politics.
@fenrir270 Glad you have read the constitution. But, actually the President can just leave it alone and it will be deemed passed. Also, how often has any President used the Veto power to try and get a smaller budget? I haven't done a thorough search, but he only case I know of was Grover Cleveland and then only once. If you know of more, please share with the rest of us.
BTW, what does our discussion have to do with economics? Also, you assume much off of a handful of conversations.
@mssnrykd Yea, that can happen, now name me one case where it has. To blame a single party for the fiscal dilemmas of the entire nation proves that you do not understand history, politics, or economics. We have a system of checks and balances, Congress can't just dole out money without consent from the senate and the president. The point the finger at the "democratic" Congress game doesn't actually work.
@fenrir270 True, most of the budget is proposed by the President or his administration, but there have been several occassions when spending was increased more than was requested, specifically when the Air Force requested appropriations for a specific number of new gulf streams jets to fly dignetaries around in and had that number increased by the house. Also, when was the last time you heard of a President vetoing a budget because it was to big?
@donscrizz "If you dont like taxes and spending, then do it on ALL fronts, not when you have a black president that is spending like crazy." Which is exactly what Grass Movements and Militias have been doing all along, but the media didn't want to cover them then. Bush was all good as long as the economy was good, and made hilarious comments. What protests did you see about the Patriot Act or Martial Law being imposed on New Orleans?
Calling tea party goers racists is an easy way to dehumanize and objectify them instead of having to deal with the legitimate arguments that they bring up.
If we study American history, we understand racism exist only amongst the uneducated. Tea baggers as we see are uneducated. Those who ignore history are bound to repeat it. History as shown us that the uneducated blame there problems on institutions that cant fix there problems. Racism and lack of education is embedded in US history. If Obama was white you wouldnt see half these protesters out protesting. What we see hear is racism at its core and that is the blind leading the blind.
@chasm470 Tea baggers are probably driven by desires that cannot be relieved in public, irregardless of their education. Tea partiers, on the other hand, come from many walks of life, including a large number with higher education. Obama IS as white as he is black, (ask his deceased mother and the grandparents who raised him), but yes, he has been depicted as black. This is not a problem for most people; the problem is his ideology. I, myself, wanted Condaleeza Rice to run for pres.
It's not a coincidence that these Tea Baggers stayed at home during the Bush Administration, which ran up debt, increased spending and increased government authority, which are the three main things they claim to be against. They're anti-Democrat, they're anti-black or they're both, plain and simple. I went to a Tea Bag protest in my city, which is 35% black. Guess how many black people were there? One, and she was the news reporter. Case closed.
@dougmanjones Funny, the one I went to was in a town with 90% white and we had at least 3. Also, they were around during Bush, just not nationally yet.
@dougmanjones Check the Everett, Washington 2010 protest.
If, they are anti-black (thanks for not falling back on the old white-supremacist stereo-type) , then Why would they have Alfonzo Rachel speak at the Dallas Texas Tea Party?
@mssnrykd - Uh....no. I see racism in a crowd full of old, white hoopleheads carrying signs that say "Go Back To Kenya" or "I Want My Country Back!" The teabaggers are a joke. Actually, they're much worse than that; they're protesting is nothing more than whining about things not going their way, which is an insult to anyone who has ever protested real injustice.
@dougmanjones And the 30 African Americans running for the first time for congress this fall? All republicans, I suppose they are just tokens to. "which is aninsult anyone who has ever protested real injustice." Like what? What do you define as 'real' injustice? Sorry if I seem irreverent, but, I go to a liberal school and hear a lot about 'justice'. At least half the time the prof. is talking crap when he uses the term.
@mssnrykd - off the top of my head, 'real' injustice would include things like Jim Crow, telling a woman what to do with her body, telling someone who they can/can't marry, drafting teenagers into a war, locking someone up for smoking a joint, firing gays from the military, etc.
And let's just see how many of those black republicans make it through their primaries. There's a reason the GOP has 0 black members of Congress.
@dougmanjones Who is to say that most tea party members disliked Bush too. Afterall most did anyway. They figured with a new president things would be getting better. After the new president exaggerated the worst characteristics of Bush, they all said "enough is enough!"
@jimbo525SE - Bullshit. There were no anti tax and spend rallies when W was in office. Obama gave most people a tax break in 2009 (it was 1/3 of the stimulus, which the tea partiers also hated). And all of a sudden they care about spending?! Ha! They didn't seem to mind when Bush started a war without raising taxes or that new medicare and drug entitlements were passed without an offsetting tax. These people are just made because Obama is president. Period.
@dougmanjones Its not a coincidence that your IQ is the about the same as a monkey...wait...that was racist....let me back up...its no coincidence that your IQ is the same as a sea-slime. I've just insulted you in a poltically correct manor.
People know what racism is. spitting, and spewing racial epithets, are racists. and it happened---at a tea party. and anyone who wants to pretend like it didn't happen, is just as ignorant as those who participated in doing so
I just heard a report from Don Lemon on CNN that teaparty protesters at the capitol shouted racist slurs of nigger at Congressman John Lewis, civil rights icon and called Barney Frank, a faggot. Not a surprise.
@CoolScoobydoo Trying going for yourself asshole. Plenty of people from all races. Only racists were the govt provocateurs. My God Americans are fucking dumb. Thank god you libtards love abortion.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Hey you hillbilly, hick democraps, because you brain-dead rednecks can't win an argument and resort to name calling(the only reason I did it is because you guys never argue based on merit, you only how to resort to name-calling), doesn't mean the right wing will be intimidated.
There is no such thing as trans gendered. You can't go out and violate other people and hide behind civil rights to do it. Deception is not a civil right...its a crime. It's time that common sence prevail...not political correctness. High time we make gender deception a felony.
I understand "Don't Tread on Me" was used for the actual Tea Party, the one that was to get independence from Great Britain. Now, today's tea party was started by a conspiracy theorist who thinks America is turning to socialism because of Universal Healthcare. Now, many countries are already on this system and they aren't socialists. A lot of the problems they are against, czars, U.H.C., bailouts, etc. are just because they were given a deep, negative opinions by Faux News.
Socialism: An economic system in which the production and distribution of goods are controlled substantially by the government rather than by private enterprise, and in which cooperation rather than competition guides economic activity. There are many varieties of socialism. Some socialists tolerate capitalism, as long as the government maintains the dominant influence over the economy; others insist on an abolition of private enterprise.
Socialism ... for the most part a failure of an ecomnomic model. Largely depends on the confiscation or the productive sector's property to give to the non-productive sector with little or no input from the provider class as to the direction of the largess and whether or not the reciever class is truly deserving.
Usually done to create a voting block of recipients who, once dependent on government handouts, are unwilling to vote themselves off the gravy train. Usually creates an increasingly dumbed down and inadequate nation.
Fact is .. Capitalism is Boss. The best most fair and equal system, proven to provide the greatest security and wealth for the greatest number of citizens, by far.
Free conservatives of America have proven to be the most philanthropical on earth.
The worst part about all of this, which neither Democrats or Republicans understand is that ANY government meddling just causes prices to rise and quality to decline.
Add on top of that a society that is not vigilant on behalf of its own good will eventually fall victim to the government nanny state.
Our federal government has very few and distinct purposes:
I will agree that Tea Party people are most likely Republican/Right/Conservative...and I definitely do not agree with everything they stand for...
But it sure is amazing how a bunch of people that NEVER protest can get organized so quickly...unlike the Democrat/Left/Liberals that are constantly protesting and don't get nearly as much coverage (unfortunately) from either side of the major media.
What is detestable is calling the groups, as a whole, racists.
The real problem now the economy and government is doing everything wrong to address the problem...universal healthcare is definitely bad...but so are the TARP bailouts, the ARRA stimulus package...agricultural subsidies...educational programs, etc, etc.
If the economy falters...and we are now teetering at the edge...none of the other shit matters.
The two wars have to end, the bailouts have to stop, civil liberties need to be restored, government. spending has to be reduced massively and personal taxation must be eliminated.
And by God, please, stop this stupid "War on Drugs"...that alone is the most discriminitory legislation of all...it creates violent communities that are crushed under the control of gang warfare. And, the "Drug War" is completely to blame for the creation of modified and synthetic drugs such as "crack" and "meth".
That black boot licker need his coon ass whooped and them out rage Tea Party people are mad racist white folks[with they're racist signs} are mad because Obama is black and he's the President.
A person's character is determined by their words and actions. Attending a protest against big-government spending, ESPECIALLY CORPORATE CRONYISM (look it up), is absolutely NOT racist. In fact it is no more racist than attending an anti-war rally or an "End The Fed" rally.
It is obvious by YOUR words that the "black boot licker" is doing something wrong and not standing up for YOUR racist principles.
Now if you want to debate THE FACTS, bring it on, cause you are in for one hell of a ride
Where were you white folks at when Bush was fucking up the country for the last eight years,oh that's right you were cheering his ass on.That black boot licker that you call yourself defending is a coon and you're a racist for trying to do.
Second, the only "mightyblack1" that comes to mind immediately is MLK Jr. And you sir, are no MLK. In fact, you are the opposite...instead of promoting racial equality you are trying to promote yours as the ultimate.
Now, my reord is clear, I am a Libertarian and I can't stand Bush either. In fact I don't know who is worse...him or Obama. But then again, we haven't had a decent president for at least a century.
And, where the hell were you when Bush was ruining this country? If you were doing anything, it wasn't enough...and if you would try to work with people other than that of your own race, than maybe we can get somewhere.
Were there racists at some of these events? I am sure there was a few...always is wherever you go.
But whether you are white, black, brown, or whatever the f*ck you call yourself I don't give a sh*t...because it is all meaningless.
Until people realize that race is nothing more than a minor biological difference and has NOTHING to do with humanity, than we are all f*cked.
So, if you can't get with the program and realize that these events were about poor monetary and fiscal policies then you are just as stupid as any racist that may have attended these events.
And if you think Obama is some hero for the black race, then you are kidding yourself more...
'Dreams from my Father:, soft cover, Rev 2004, page 99: "But I hadn't grown up in Compton or Watts. I had nothing to escape from except my own inner doubts" - Barack Obama
Pp 104-105 are even better when he speaks with "Regina"...in short, he claims not really understanding what it was like to grow up as deprived and black.
I can tell you this, as a white man growing up on the west side of Chicago, I understood "growing up black" better than our president did.
Now I am sure you have your stories too, and I would be glad to hear them...so long as you can put your racist bullsh*t aside and start to realize that...black or white...if this crap doesn't get put aside sooner than yesterday, than this whole nation is going to be screwed because of some arrogant elected officials in DC.
Like I said before, if you want to debate the facts, then let's go for a ride. Otherwise stop taking steps backwards...it does not suit you very well.
As a black man and veteran, I am glad I stop drinking the "Kool-aid" and began to think for myself. Discovering that the current Democrat party are the true racists! Looking to minorities to boost their own agendas, but NOT to create an environment to help them achieve and prosper.

Progressives do not really believe we Tea Party people are psychotic. They see us as real threats because we are on to their game. Our message of small government, personal responsibility and personal strength is a huge threat to their doctrine of personal dependence upon government -- therefore, they call us names.

To call the tea party movement racist is extremely stupid. There are some black people at nearly every tea party. Just because it's not 50/50 doesn't mean it's not racist. How about the NAACP?

To blame a single party for the fiscal dilemmas of the entire nation proves that you do not understand history, politics, or economics. We have a system of checks and balances, Congress can't just dole out money without consent from the senate and the president. The point the finger at the "democratic" Congress game doesn't actually work.

@fenrir270 True, most of the budget is proposed by the President or his administration, but there have been several occassions when spending was increased more than was requested, specifically when the Air Force requested appropriations for a specific number of new gulf streams jets to fly dignetaries around in and had that number increased by the house. Also, when was the last time you heard of a President vetoing a budget because it was to big?

@donscrizz "If you dont like taxes and spending, then do it on ALL fronts, not when you have a black president that is spending like crazy." Which is exactly what Grass Movements and Militias have been doing all along, but the media didn't want to cover them then. Bush was all good as long as the economy was good, and made hilarious comments. What protests did you see about the Patriot Act or Martial Law being imposed on New Orleans?

Calling tea party goers racists is an easy way to dehumanize and objectify them instead of having to deal with the legitimate arguments that they bring up.

If we study American history, we understand racism exist only amongst the uneducated. Tea baggers as we see are uneducated. Those who ignore history are bound to repeat it. History as shown us that the uneducated blame there problems on institutions that cant fix there problems. Racism and lack of education is embedded in US history. If Obama was white you wouldnt see half these protesters out protesting. What we see hear is racism at its core and that is the blind leading the blind.

@chasm470 Tea baggers are probably driven by desires that cannot be relieved in public, irregardless of their education. Tea partiers, on the other hand, come from many walks of life, including a large number with higher education. Obama IS as white as he is black, (ask his deceased mother and the grandparents who raised him), but yes, he has been depicted as black. This is not a problem for most people; the problem is his ideology. I, myself, wanted Condaleeza Rice to run for pres.

It's not a coincidence that these Tea Baggers stayed at home during the Bush Administration, which ran up debt, increased spending and increased government authority, which are the three main things they claim to be against. They're anti-Democrat, they're anti-black or they're both, plain and simple. I went to a Tea Bag protest in my city, which is 35% black. Guess how many black people were there? One, and she was the news reporter. Case closed.

Sorry if I seem irreverent, but, I go to a liberal school and hear a lot about 'justice'. At least half the time the prof. is talking crap when he uses the term.

@mssnrykd - off the top of my head, 'real' injustice would include things like Jim Crow, telling a woman what to do with her body, telling someone who they can/can't marry, drafting teenagers into a war, locking someone up for smoking a joint, firing gays from the military, etc.
And let's just see how many of those black republicans make it through their primaries. There's a reason the GOP has 0 black members of Congress.

@jimbo525SE - Bullshit. There were no anti tax and spend rallies when W was in office. Obama gave most people a tax break in 2009 (it was 1/3 of the stimulus, which the tea partiers also hated). And all of a sudden they care about spending?! Ha! They didn't seem to mind when Bush started a war without raising taxes or that new medicare and drug entitlements were passed without an offsetting tax. These people are just made because Obama is president. Period.

There is no such thing as trans gendered. You can't go out and violate other people and hide behind civil rights to do it. Deception is not a civil right...its a crime. It's time that common sence prevail...not political correctness. High time we make gender deception a felony.

JHancock1776 1 year ago
I understand "Don't Tread on Me" was used for the actual Tea Party, the one that was to get independence from Great Britain. Now, today's tea party was started by a conspiracy theorist who thinks America is turning to socialism because of Universal Healthcare. Now, many countries are already on this system and they aren't socialists. A lot of the problems they are against, czars, U.H.C., bailouts, etc. are just because they were given a deep, negative opinions by Faux News.

Socialism: An economic system in which the production and distribution of goods are controlled substantially by the government rather than by private enterprise, and in which cooperation rather than competition guides economic activity. There are many varieties of socialism. Some socialists tolerate capitalism, as long as the government maintains the dominant influence over the economy; others insist on an abolition of private enterprise.
JHancock1776 1 year ago
Socialism ... for the most part a failure of an ecomnomic model. Largely depends on the confiscation or the productive sector's property to give to the non-productive sector with little or no input from the provider class as to the direction of the largess and whether or not the reciever class is truly deserving.

Socialism
Usually done to create a voting block of recipients who, once dependent on government handouts, are unwilling to vote themselves off the gravy train. Usually creates an increasingly dumbed down and inadequate nation.
Fact is .. Capitalism is Boss. The best most fair and equal system, proven to provide the greatest security and wealth for the greatest number of citizens, by far.
Free conservatives of America have proven to be the most philanthropical on earth.

You're right, we are not turning to socialism...we are already there.

JHancock1776 1 year ago
The worst part about all of this, which neither Democrats or Republicans understand is that ANY government meddling just causes prices to rise and quality to decline.
Add on top of that a society that is not vigilant on behalf of its own good will eventually fall victim to the government nanny state.
Our federal government has very few and distinct purposes:
1) Defend the nation
2) Protect civil liberties
3) Promote free trade and prosperity
They have failed on all accounts.
JHancock1776 1 year ago
I will agree that Tea Party people are most likely Republican/Right/Conservative...and I definitely do not agree with everything they stand for...
But it sure is amazing how a bunch of people that NEVER protest can get organized so quickly...unlike the Democrat/Left/Liberals that are constantly protesting and don't get nearly as much coverage (unfortunately) from either side of the major media.
JHancock1776 1 year ago
What is detestable is calling the groups, as a whole, racists.
The real problem now the economy and government is doing everything wrong to address the problem...universal healthcare is definitely bad...but so are the TARP bailouts, the ARRA stimulus package...agricultural subsidies...educational programs, etc, etc.
If the economy falters...and we are now teetering at the edge...none of the other shit matters.
JHancock1776 1 year ago
The two wars have to end, the bailouts have to stop, civil liberties need to be restored, government. spending has to be reduced massively and personal taxation must be eliminated.
And by God, please, stop this stupid "War on Drugs"...that alone is the most discriminitory legislation of all...it creates violent communities that are crushed under the control of gang warfare. And, the "Drug War" is completely to blame for the creation of modified and synthetic drugs such as "crack" and "meth".

A person's character is determined by their words and actions. Attending a protest against big-government spending, ESPECIALLY CORPORATE CRONYISM (look it up), is absolutely NOT racist. In fact it is no more racist than attending an anti-war rally or an "End The Fed" rally.
It is obvious by YOUR words that the "black boot licker" is doing something wrong and not standing up for YOUR racist principles.
Now if you want to debate THE FACTS, bring it on, cause you are in for one hell of a ride

First, learn how to write a sentence.
Second, the only "mightyblack1" that comes to mind immediately is MLK Jr. And you sir, are no MLK. In fact, you are the opposite...instead of promoting racial equality you are trying to promote yours as the ultimate.
Now, my reord is clear, I am a Libertarian and I can't stand Bush either. In fact I don't know who is worse...him or Obama. But then again, we haven't had a decent president for at least a century.

But whether you are white, black, brown, or whatever the f*ck you call yourself I don't give a sh*t...because it is all meaningless.

Until people realize that race is nothing more than a minor biological difference and has NOTHING to do with humanity, than we are all f*cked.
