Ummm... Isn't that EXACTLY what the link I posted says? Let's review...

...and look at the Tea Party's political party identity stats:
Tea Party: 4 in 10 are Dems, Independents, Survey Says - Political Hotsheet - CBS News

...and demographics:
Tea Partiers Are Fairly Mainstream in Their Demographics

You're trying to make something stick that just isn't so.
Why, yes it does!

You're being misleading.
No. That would be you.

How many black candidates out of the total number of black candidates running for office in the country would the Tea Party be "supporting"?
Any candidate that supports smaller government, less deficit spending, reducing the national debt, and adhering to the U.S. Constitution. That's pretty clear, so why don't you know that by now?
Apparently, it's because you like hanging out at stormfront better than learning about the Tea Party and their basic beliefs.

Listen to Cedra Crenshaw to get a better understanding of Tea Party beliefs:

I have seen up close and personal the effects of race hatred. If anyone chooses to be consumed by such hatred, I can only feel sorry for them.

If the Tea Party chooses to be involved with David Duke, they will be known as a racist organization, regardless of the actions of any other group anywhere on the planet.

Diluting the thread with deflections and bad examples doesn't change that fact.
And if the Dems choose to be involved with racists, they will be known as a racist group.

At least by you explaining that your step grandfather was a klansman, explains to me why you are so racist.

You can continue to hate those of us with darker color skin then you, just because we are not white, but we will not hate you for it, we will feel sorry for you.

You are really way out there with these comparisons.
Oh so the NBPP intimidating and threatening voters to vote for Obama who is a Dem isnt supporting the Dems?

Sometimes you are too funny.

No the tea party should not have to publicly denounce every single racist that says they support the tea party. The tea party has made it clear many times over that they do not support racism.

Just because a racist supports a movement doesnt mean the movement supports the racist.

The New Black Panther Party supports the Democrats. Does that mean that the Democrats support this racist party? Should the Democrats come out and denounce every single racist that supports them?
David Duke is not just "another" white racist. He's a known public figure, he is a former REPUBLICAN member of the House of Representatives in LA, he "teaches" and travels far and wide spreading his message of white supremacy, and he is a very well-know member of stormfront as one of the leaders of white nationalists.

When a NBPP leader comes out with a video to the Democratic Party endorsing them and supporting them, then I would totally expect the chairman of the DNC and other Democratic leaders to make public statements rejecting that support. And, you know, for the life of me I just can't remember when any "leader" of the NBPP was a well known former Republican member of any state legislature. Hmmm. Can't even remember when a member of the NBPP was an unknown former Republican member of any state legislature.

Yes we know that you don't like black people disagreeing with you. You still think we should do and think what you tell us.

Last paragraph.......are you accusing cuebald of hating people "with darker color skin then (sic)" than his??? Now where do you get that impression? Is that a personal attack? An accusation based on NOTHING? Get a grip. You're getting confused and screwing up your revisionist history routine.

You need to start defining "what kind" of "racist" you're talking about. A white racist, a black racist, a white supremacist, a white nationalist?.........you're getting yourself confused` And you long ago lost everybody else.

btw, obviously this thread is not about the "intelligence level" of the average tea party member. lol
