"The remarks, which suggested that African-Americans are on welfare, were condemned by Tea Party leaders in the state."
Inge's joke was tasteless to say the least, but it does not represent the whole. Furthermore, Shabazz, you are in no position to criticize others of racism.
Furthermore this is not an isolated incident. This is one example of the many red flags.
To understand the Tea Party's agenda you must first recognize it is a racist organization. Then and only then will you understand the real reason behind their counter movement.
No, one doesn't see many black, Hispanic or Asian people at Tea Party events. In fact, one doesn't see much
in terms of minority representation at Romney events. The fact that we've seen so many GOP reps making
racist remarks or sending out racist e-mails makes it clear that these folks are less concerned with the welfare of the country than they are with the fact that our president is bi-racial. That shatters every notion of white superiority that they hold so dear, and threatens their sense of entitlement. Such people are dinosaurs, and will suffer the same fate as America changes around them, making their bigotry less acceptable with every passing year. Who knew that character would be of such little consequence to so many?
Yes I can damn well criticize racist anytime I want! The Tea Party has all kinds of racist members and leadership, they take some of the same positions as white nationalists, and they make themselves look foolish by holding up anti black signs during their gatherings. So you’re damn well straight I’m going to call them out.

What racist remarks and e-mails from GOP reps are you referring to? Or are you simply a liar?
I'm still trying to find the humor in this. How can one stating truth be construed as a joke
I would like you to come and tell that joke to my 93 year old AA neighbor who owns her home and worked all her life, and who's got a very accomplished and hardworking family.
I'm sure she'll think there's a mountain of truth to that little anecdote. Why don't you come on over and tell it to her face?
Then you can go repeat it to all the retired military black home owners on my block.
Wow, have you not been keeping up with current events? Or has your eyes just been closed this whole time? You had to have seen the news feeds. There are hundreds of examples online with racist signs being held up at Tea Party events, racist emails being fired off from Tea Party leaders, and support for questionable positions.
