Default Racist Tea Party People? Nope. Just Americans!



OMG, surely some white person held a gun to this poor black woman's head and against the black man on the right clapping in the background!

Zachstar and Moeceefus, your heads must be spinning in circles over this!

Why would our heads be spinning? You really have no idea about the origins of the whole tea party movement or what its about do you? Once again you inject race into something that has nothing to do with it. Good job looking stupid again.

That's uncalled for. There have been a lot of allegations of racism against the tea party movement, and these gentlemen are obviously upset about it. I am as well, to be honest. We don't much like having our movement for smaller government hijacked by accusations of racism.

That said, one sample of testimony does not a case make, but there is a surprisingly diverse base of support for the tea partiers. It is good to see that liberty knows no lines when it comes to coloring.

You didn't get the sarcasm of my original post but you did view it as a racial one! Thanks for making my point!

Actually, the post was pointing out that blacks and whites are active in the tea party and race has nothing to do with it. It's a group of common people against socialism and over spending within the federal government. I'm sure Zachstar, or even you, have commented on here or other forums that the "teabagger" party was a racist organization! Admit it!

guess who is a registered republican? not that the tea party idea is party based, but i'm not one to get flustered when a radical left winger makes a stupid comment. its what the radical right wingers say that makes it/us look bad.

Nu-Uh! I don't believe you're a registered republican! Other republicans don't have their credentials brought into check because they don't post stuff like you do on here! Now I think you should leave before Neal has your account Keelhauled! Just go away!

BTW, that was my best Zachstar impression and I could personally care less what political party you're registered under.

Its far easier to believe I am a republican than it is to believe that you are a cop, but I like you just dont care either.

I used to be a republican myself. Even had a chatroom going with Bush 04 supporters.

Many tea party fools remind me of what I was like back in the day. I could not wait for the bombs to fall on Iraq. War was exciting and backing republicans was a way to see more war on Fox (Yes I was a big fox news fan and that is why I know what they are like today) I considered the left as pansy bleeding heart liberals who would rather see the country get attacked again than glass the middle east.

One of the things that got me to move left was realizing my family was going to war for real for months in the middle of hostile territory. Realizing I was advocating tax breaks for companies that sent my communities jobs overseas. Advocating laws to restrict the rights of homosexuals that have done nothing to me and my family. Advocating removing help for families that have suffered economic toil. In other words I had become a monster and it took getting older to realize that.

When I look upon the faces of many tea party fools I see my younger face.

And what do you see now, ZS? What is your comprehensive policy for implementing positive social change? Who would you trust to implement it, and how might they be appointed?

I ask because when I look at Democrats and socialists and people who are socialist but don't realize it, I see my younger face. I'd be interested to hear what you think now and how you came to the conclusions you have. No insult intended, of course.

More name calling! Why are they "fools" exactly? Is it because their opinion differs from your own! Yep!

BTW, it sounds like you were a very weak republican if you bailed out because of personal reasons. How selfish to think only of yourself and abandon ship to all those you were once with. I'm glad I never served next to you in a foxhole! You're the type that runs towards the enemy with a white flag when you think the battle's been won in their favor. The word "cowardice" comes to mind.

But I for some reason don't believe that you have ever been a conservative. You're just too liberal to have ever been a real conservative. Nobody goes that extreme unless a coconut falls off a tree and hits them in the head!
