Maybe, but that's ending for everyone. At least they recognize what's happening and have the courage to speak up.

No, those on the left aren't buying anyone's BS. They make their own and shovel it out.

The internet is at your fingertips, and there are places called Libraries. Go crack the covers of a book or two. Or, watch Glenn Beck for a crash course.

Hispanic is not a race.

As for your lessons in American history, google the "Southern Strategy." and "Willie Horton."

Just two of many, many examples of Republican evil.

Please, the Tea Party are NOT racist. Do you know how many Tea Party protests there have been here in Miami, made up of CUBANS? It's not about race at all....it's about people standing up and being heard, protesting about the fact that the current administration has created (and is still creating) and enormous deficit that future generations will be forced to pay back. The whole racism card is ridiculous. If you feel so strongly about these protests, you are free to go out and protest against them.

Cubans (most of whom in Miami think they are white) can be some of the most racist people you'll ever want to encounter......or not.

That has nothing to do with racism in the Tea Party movement.

This is the song of the liberals these days. Racism...racism...racism...
Anyone that that opposes or disagrees with their view, has to be racist. How can it be otherwise? Keep saying it, it just emphasizes how ignorant the left is. They have no intelligent argument, so they have to marginalize any way they can, a'la Alinksy's "the end justifies the means" tactic. All they end up doing is marginalizing themselves. Recent polls show that the number of people who think the TEA party is a serious movement is growing, just as the TEA party itself is growing.
