What I've always thought about the man - he is seriously mentally ill.

More of Obama and the Democrats "new civility" that they lectured us on after a liberal blew up Gabby Giffords.

This is all they have to offer for black people - fear.

Not jobs... not advancement... but fear.

What does this thread have to do with black people?

Just about every other minority group hates the TeaParty too, and rightfully so.

Not even close, one was a bunch of fat idiots who wanted everyone to live by their view of the bible and the other was the KKK. and the KKK was much more organized.

I loathe the Tea Party (and I'm not a minority) although comparing it to the KKK may be extreme.

However, many Tea Party types have espoused much racist rhetoric toward Obama.

I do think the Tea Party is destroying the Republican party with their extreme and narrow-minded views.

Hopefully that will mean Democrats will keep winning the Presidency.

I knew you Democrats have a soft spot in your hearts for the KKK, especially since you put Grand Kleagle Robert Byrd (D-WV) in a leadership role in the Senate for many years, but you should really downplay your obvious affinity for that group.

Dont worry. Im sure the media will widely report on this and Obama will demand he apologize and tone down the rhetoric soon.....

Yeah, again, Democrats can get away with saying and doing almost anything. We all know damn well that if a Republican in Congress did this, they would be scolded by the media for days and Obama would condemn it.
