I mean, it's not like we're helping America or our neighbors by spouting our opinions in here, so I get a bit rowdy and post controversy for the sake of getting reactions.
Gotcha. But I'm not convinced that any black ppl you'd find at a Tea Party are there for racially motivated reasons.

And yes there are, I have more black Republician friends then White. Yes they are upper middle class, some own their own businesses, which will make some of you say well it figures, no it does not, They are very good at business sense, and making a very good living, They worry about where the Sate of this economy is going, and want to see more done about unemployment and our illegal situation, that no one seems to care about, in our Political Arena. No they don't have a problem getting in any one's face and telling them what party they belong to, the way it should be. If they are faced with criticisim. They believe that Obama won the Presidency by Pretense. And believe the Media helped get him there.

Nope, not I. I may have made a remark in that thread but I understand that there are conservative Americans of all races, genders, and religions who are legitimately very angry with this administration, just as am I.

For a political movement that has no credibility the left sure does spend more time and effort attempting to discredit it than the Tea Party spends protesting. More time is spent falsely accusing them of being racists, making fun of their dress or spelling but not being able to stop their message. Wonder why?

I usually aim to be civil, but yes, Tea Partiers seem to be whor*ing out at a rate that would rival the sales of a Tijuana bar maid. Sorry folks, your entire platform seems built on manipulation. At least the TJ bar maid does not distort the facts.


Facts?

Didn't see any facts in your post.

Lots of hate, lots of slander, but no facts.

It seems to me that I read many places last night that CNN described the Searchlight Tea Party as being made up of dozens or maybe hundreds. Somehow that sounded like some more of their attempt to marginalize the movement since police estimated the crowd at sizes from 10,000 to 20,000.

CNN is a hard working part of the MS when it comes to discrediting the Tea Party movement. I wonder why that is.

Why do you lefties continue to say the same things when you are so convinced that the Tea Party movement is not to be feared by your kind? Somehow it seems to me that if they were so lumpy and shambling they would get no words from those who aren't at all afraid of them.
