All you Uncle Cain supporters do you actually live around black people?...do you even KNOW any black people?


Because if you did you would know there is no chance in hell they would vote for someone from a party that constantly has problems with both blatant and subtle racism ESPECIALLY from the "Tea Party".

People can see through Uncle Cain supporting the GOP.

The best chance they had was Colin Powell and the GOP trashed him for using his head and voting for Obama over McCain rather than tow the party line.


Not to mention Cain is like a wind up doll...pull his string and get a GOP talking point.

The Tea party obviously isn't racist. It's just another attempt from the ones on the left afraid to discuss the issues because they don't have a leg to stand on. Horrible policies that have brought this nation to its knees.

Cain is anything but Tea Party. Some of the lemmings have bought into him. A former head of the Kansas Federal Reserve and he backed the bailouts.
How anyone could remotely think he's conservative is beyond me. Talk about putting lipstick on a pig and trying to pass it off as Cinderella, lol. He IS big government and will get exposed in the debates.

Well they arent "Racist" in the sense of having the white sheets on. But a bunch of old white people holding up signs of Obama dressed like an African witchdoctor with a bone through his nose or signs saying "Show us the birth-certificate" While chanting "WE NEED TO TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK". Would strike people as racial politics...even putting aside the fact that this whole "Movement" JUST started when Obama got sworn in.

See that's where it just gets stupid. Both parties are absolutely merciless in attacking a standing President of the opposite party -- but if you are attacking Mr Obama then you're a racist. There are still a ton of Democrats who are firmly convinced that George W was behind the 9/11 attacks. There's a good number of people who actually consider Farenheit 911 to be a documentary rather than a pile of propagandist BS. And accusing George W of betraying the nation and faking Muslim attacks - that's a lot more ridiculous than "show me the birth certificate!"

It's all just stupidity. Every President of the USA in at least the past 100 years became President because they wanted to make America a better place. It takes a special breed of Sheeple (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8si43zB1QT0/TTurVqv4JJI/AAAAAAAAA5Y/1gqx_dBrGuw/s1600/633564940352646100-sheeple.jpg - broken link) to believe all the made up crap that people fabricate about each and every President in recent history. If George W and Bill get to be blasted in every possible way, Barrack Obama doesn't get a pass just because he's black. As for myself, I'm not dumb enough to buy into most of it.

"We Need To Take Our Country Back" ... if you don't get where they're coming from with that then you're hopeless. The Tea Party is basically a repackaged version of Libertarians. They want less government, less government meddling in absolutely everything, less taxes (hence Taxed Enough Already Party), less huge federal programs and more common sense in government. These are not bad things in my estimation. Doing things like Social Security and Welfare at the Federal level is just to big to keep track of. People will rip you off from here to doomsday and back again because the programs are too big to watch closely.

Their message resonates with all Americans, especially those who have jobs. There aren't many people out there who want to continue to be taxed like crazy and have those hard earned dollars wasted on a whole host of programs that don't even work worth a damn. The Dems could have embraced the Tea Party but instead they chose to demonize them. So now the Tea Party is in the Republican camp -- for now. But they're really a different animal altogether.

Meanwhile the majority of Democrats and Republicans are this sort of animal:

I am the least representative of a lemming. So far Herman Cain is the most real of them all.

Black people don't vote Republican. Why? The Southern Strategy. It's not rocket science. It's really quite easy to understand, but hard for conservatives to accept.

Rebublicans need to get a clue.

Meanwhile the majority of Democrats and Republicans are this sort of animal:

No serious Democrat ever supported the claims of people saying bush was behind 9-11.

Plenty Republicans have given credit to "Obama was born in Kenya"

Anyway I'm not gonna complain about the TEA party, they do MUCH more harm to Republicans than Democrats by making sure anybody who survives a GOP primary with TEA party involvement is UNELECTABLE, Joe Miller and Christine "I am not a witch" O'Donnell come to mind.

They are truly the biggest "Sheeple" of them all. Decrying socialisim while collecting Social Security and Medicare and Taxes which have not even taken place. All because of Racial motivations.

The TEA party was born during...and will die after Obama.

Not a good idea. The days of politicians spending money with no say so from voters is over. The Tea Party will continue to hold politicians' feet to the fire.
