Oh Lordy, get over race card carrying selves. The VAST majority of people in the TP and those who sympathize with their agenda are NOT racists. The fact that THIS president has added more to our national debt in two years time has galvanized and energized the fiscal conservatives. It really is as simple as that. I can and will continue to oppose Obama based on his reckless fiscal policies that are driving our country into ruin. You (general) people have overused the race card so much that it's become essentially meaningless. The fact that he's black gives the O-backers a convenient way to deflect all criticism. Well, that won't work on me.
So, ALL of the Tea Party protesters who carried the bigoted signs at the TP rallies (especially in the first days of President Obama's administration) that depicted President Obama as a monkey, Muslim, "savage" African witch doctor w/ a bone in his nose, calling him the "n-word", referring to him as a half-breed, comparing him to Hitler....yep, we get the connection between all of that racist signage and TP claims of their purpose being against excessive taxation/government spending
Interesting how in late 2008-early 2009, the Tea Party focused their bashing efforts strictly at President Obama (even before he had signed on or pushed a single policy) So what were they really protesting? And how could they be so angry if President Obama hadn't even signed a thing into law? What were these people really angry about? And why did they not express as much outrage at the previous President Bush or direct any of their vitriol at Congress? We all know the answers to these questions yet the Tea Party ilk continue to think that the rest of us are as 'dense' as they are.
You will never get an answer for any of that from them never. They don't think you are intelligent enough to see all that.

Seeing things that don't exist, at least not in the proportions claimed, does not equal intelligence. It is a serious sign of mental illness. Schizophrenia or delusional disorder perhaps, but intelligence? Ha, no.
"Can even a single tea partier provide evidence of them speaking out against "free speech zones" and the like during the eight glorious Bush years?"
Got us with that one!
I guess not existing as an organization is no excuse.
But the tea party isn't a party now! It has no membership, or leadership. (This from TP members themselves.) How can it not have existed then any more than it doesn't exist now?

Yeah, how many of them were there exactly? You'd have to be an idiot to say there wasn't a single racist in the tea party or any segment of the American population, and nobody is saying that. The problem with you liberals is that you pin this on an entire group. Yet you're the ones constantly complaining about stereotypes.
Considering the Teahats didn't even appear on the political radar until after Obama was elected....
Ignorant statement and lie perpetuated by the Obammunists.
Ron Paul is the founder of the modern Tea Party. It existed long before Obama ran for US Senate in Illinois. Your race card has expired. Obama's policies stink like a fresh turd in a punchbowl.
Sorry Casper but I speak the truth. I'm not a lefty either. I just need to fight the tea party. They are wrong to be against Obama because of his race.
They're against him because of his policies, not his race.

Dear Delusional Sweetheart
Are you saying that the TWO UNFUNDED WARS that The Idiot you people elected had nothing to do with the deficit? He started two wars without bothering to find a way to pay for them!
Does that not make an impression on you Shrub Fans? All this BS talk of "fiscal responsibility".... where was it when The Shrub was at the helm dragging us into TWO UNFUNDED WARS?
Are you seriously suggesting that Obama ran up the deficit with his policies more than The Shrub did with the TWO UNFUNDED WARS he started?
It's one thing to have different opinions ... I can respect that ... but you can't have your own facts!
Will any conservative, any republican, anywhere admit that having these TWO UNFUNDED WARS had anything to do with the mess we are in now?

Anybody?
Please. Countless conservatives hated Bush and his reckless spending. You could try reading around these forums a little bit.
As a side note, if you didn't like Bush you shouldn't like Obama either. So stop using Bush to deflect from Obama's failures.
