My impression of Tea Partiers are that they hate Obama because he is Black. But I don't believe Tea Partiers think Obama is stupid or can't lead because he is Black (rather because he is a Democrat).
Typical impression of a racist trying to justify their attitude......
Why does it always come down to "because he is black". Try inept, with a razor thin resume coming into the Presidency. The VAST majority of his opponents could care LESS what color the guy is. Of course if you take the stance that it is race, you can avoid the difficult task of defending his lack of ability.
Because they Tea Partiers did not exist when Bush's policies were failing this country. They started protesting before Obama even took office.
Maybe you were on another planet then. The Tea Party started in 2007 with Ron Paul. Bush was in office through 2008.
The term 'Tea Party' wasn't used for a modern political movement until January or February 2009 - after Barack Obama was sworn in as President. Anything Ron Paul started in 2007 didn't use the term and was more a libertarian movement; and Libertarianism existed before Ron Paul ever took elected office. And you've got to admit, the Tea Party includes more than just libertarians.
Generally, the tea partiers(most identify with Modern Republican beliefs) hate President Obama because he's a Democrat. Look what the Republicans did to President Clinton. If any other Democrat would have become President, they would have hated him just as badly. The whole race thing just turns the notch from 10 to 11. hard to tell the difference when the vitriol is that high.

I wonder what he would say about the Tea Party?
Who cares?
