The cry racism. Black people calling a largely white movement racism is about as predictable as the sun setting in the west.

Tell us why you disagree? There's plenty of supporting evidence out there that black people feel negatively about the Tea Party, and most of it is on the basis of racism. Are you disclaiming this evidence as if it doesn't exist?

tea party is being infiltrated by neo cons. the idea was solid but it has lost a lot of steam in recent weeks.

not to mention the idiot leader with the colored peoples letter to abe lincoln is just handing ammo to opponents and they know it, which is why they dropped him faster than cbs dropped jimmy the greek.

Why would the Democratic Party need to organize a counter to the teabaggers since the teabaggers are the "counter" to the Democratic Party... the thread simply makes no sense.

Polls are the only evidence that you're able to derive evidence of dissatisfaction with the movement? You're not able to deduce from the multitude of repudiations that Black people and the Tea Party aren't political partners?

Really?

Alive and well. Drinking coffee, staying out of the 100 degree heat. Discussing issues of the moment, doing chores, and attending to daily life. Not interested in collaring the Tea Partiers. Let them party on. Now where did I put that container of "Coffee Mate ?"

It amazes me that liberals are so upset about the Tea Party.
It doesn't amaze me at all. The liberals are threatented by any positive force from conservatives. It threatens them to their core.
