Dems are always the first to scream about bigotry all while ignoring the bigotry in their own party.

Gotta love that Dem. Jim Moran for his ridiculous comments. Check out the videos on this link if you really want to witness bigotry in action.

I don't now if i'd call it speaking to "bigotry" necessarily, but Juan Williams did a damn good job in his book. It was universally lauded by Libs and Conservs alike. It was a scathing book, and it was spot on.

Of course Goldberg can't say that. Nobody can, but it seems to be true anyhow.
Don't lie stillkit. It's very unbecoming.

No, it was you who first mentioned a political party. Not me.

CPAC is not a Republican organization. It's an organization for conservatives.

This isn't about Democrats or Republicans.

Geez. It's interesting how many people don't understand this. Republican does not always mean conservative. And Democrat does not always mean liberal.

msnbc is bigoted.. they always think there is something wrong with having black skin because they are always defending blacks on every issue .. now the tea party are supposedly bigots.. I didn't see any bigots waving flags and demanding a balanced budget and lowing taxes.

msnbc always plays the race card to the point where one can't even say anything against Obama even when it is his socialist agenda, Obama stomping on the constitution or he is bullying the church with his legislation to take over with big government power.

That goes without saying....Now...since you AGREE apparently that there were as many people who voted for McCain because he is white...I will simply thank you for making my point. Apparently it ISN'T so stupid if you agree...Right??
