Some of pics are not exactally racists but are close to being racists. If it is not racist it is pure stupidity then. However there are pics there that I put that are racists.

However of course white supremists are active in the tea party movement. Here is the graphic concrete evidence for this:

Al Jazeera English - PEOPLE AND POWER - White Power USA

Well even though its from al jazeera, its a well presented film on white power movements in USA.

With stormfront web site there are threads on tea party movements and there is proof that stormfront members are active there. In addition there is council of conservative citizens that are also active in the tea party movement as well.
other99 ... !!! A Most Interesting Post indeed !

We may well be on the very threashhold of a dynamic new chapter in American History ! It is amazing how many folks in America from every political spectrum appear totally fed up with the outrageousness of the Government. It truly appears that the so called Tea Party folks are determined to arrange a definite change in the pathetic political mess
in Washington D.C. !

Perhaps there are enough decent and honest folks left in America to resolutely make a change for the better afterall !

At times like these it is indeed a genuine source of pride to be an American.

Thanks / Lamar

Interesting that someone would capitalize Hitler's name but not Obama's.

How is that strange? Did anyone who has an issue with the comparison of Obama to Hitler FORGET the MANY comparisons of Bush to Hitler?

I guess i have to voice my disappointment here that dcsldcd hasn't found the time to respond to my (and thePR's) post.

If it's because he/she didn't notice that there were post challenging him/her to explain to us some of his/her allegations - fair enough, we can't be everywhere and see everything.

If it's rather an unwillingness to respond - that would be sad, because it would imply an inability of dcsldcd to own up to his/her possible mistakes and/or wrong statements.

Well I am aware there were anti Bush demostrations which compared Bush to Hitler and the Republican party to Nazis. I think that is equally stupid to those that compare Obama or his administration as the Nazis or Obama as the anti christ.

Anyway it be interesting what their motives were on doing it. Guess Ron Paul has a point with these tea party demostrations as its being hijacked by the Neo Cons. But of course there are neo cons out there that are racist and white supremists not all of couse, there are even non neo cons that are white supremists and example is Don Black is he is the owner of Stormfront, and he is part of the tea party movement.

Post a link if you have proof.
It's sick that anyone would even promote such hate, lies and viciousness... Especially against the Commander in Chief who is a husband and father of 2 young girls.
It's a sad and pathetic society with some people that we have to co-exist with.

People need to utilize the education system to enlighten themselves.
ROFLMAO read a history book lately?
It was the republican president Abraham Lincoln that freed the slaves.
It was the DEMOCRATIC party that oppressed blacks in the south.
Jim crow laws were all democrat laws.
Perhaps you got your history from the DNC web site?
Well here are afew facts they left out.


[*]There is no reference to the number of Democratic Party platforms supporting slavery. There were six from 1840 through 1860.

[*]There is no reference to the number of Democratic presidents who owned slaves. There were seven from 1800 through 1861[*]There is no reference to the number of Democratic Party platforms that either supported segregation outright or were silent on the subject. There were 20, from 1868 through 1948.

[*]There is no reference to "Jim Crow" as in "Jim Crow laws," nor is there reference to the role Democrats played in creating them. These were the post-Civil War laws passed enthusiastically by Democrats in that pesky 52-year part of the DNC's missing years. These laws segregated public schools, public transportation, restaurants, rest rooms and public places in general (everything from water coolers to beaches). The reason Rosa Parks became famous is that she sat in the "whites only" front section of a bus, the "whites only" designation the direct result of Democrats.

[*]There is no reference to the formation of the Ku Klux Klan, which, according to Columbia University historian Eric Foner, became "a military force serving the interests of the Democratic Party." Nor is there reference to University of North Carolina historian Allen Trelease's description of the Klan as the "terrorist arm of the Democratic Party."

[*]There is no reference to the fact Democrats opposed the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution. The 13th banned slavery. The 14th effectively overturned the infamous 1857 Dred Scott decision (made by Democratic pro-slavery Supreme Court justices) by guaranteeing due process and equal protection to former slaves. The 15th gave black Americans the right to vote.

[*]There is no reference to the fact that Democrats opposed the Civil Rights Act of 1866. It was passed by the Republican Congress over the veto of President Andrew Johnson, who had been a Democrat before joining Lincoln's ticket in 1864. The law was designed to provide blacks with the right to own private property, sign contracts, sue and serve as witnesses in a legal proceeding.[*]There is no reference to the Democrats' opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1875. It was passed by a Republican Congress and signed into law by President Ulysses Grant. The law prohibited racial discrimination in public places and public accommodations.

[*]There is no reference to the Democrats' 1904 platform, which devotes a section to "Sectional and Racial Agitation," claiming the GOP's protests against segregation and the denial of voting rights to blacks sought to "revive the dead and hateful race and sectional animosities in any part of our common country," which in turn "means confusion, distraction of business, and the reopening of wounds now happily healed."

[*]There is no reference to four Democratic platforms, 1908-20, that are silent on blacks, segregation, lynching and voting rights as racial problems in the country mount. By contrast the GOP platforms of those years specifically address "Rights of the Negro" (1908), oppose lynching (in 1912, 1920, 1924, 1928) and, as the New Deal kicks in, speak out about the dangers of making blacks "wards of the state."

[*]There is no reference to the Democratic Convention of 1924, known to history as the "Klanbake." The 103-ballot convention was held in Madison Square Garden. Hundreds of delegates were members of the Ku Klux Klan, the Klan so powerful that a plank condemning Klan violence was defeated outright. To celebrate, the Klan staged a rally with 10,000 hooded Klansmen in a field in New Jersey directly across the Hudson from the site of the convention. Attended by hundreds of cheering convention delegates, the rally featured burning crosses and calls for violence against African-Americans and Catholics.

[*]There is no reference to the fact that it was Democrats who segregated the federal government, at the direction of President Woodrow Wilson upon taking office in 1913. There \is a reference to the fact that President Harry Truman integrated the military after World War II.

[*]There is reference to the fact that Democrats created the Federal Reserve Board, passed labor and child welfare laws, and created Social Security with Wilson's New Freedom and FDR's New Deal. There is no mention that these programs were created as the result of an agreement to ignore segregation and the lynching of blacks. Neither is there a reference to the thousands of local officials, state legislators, state governors, U.S. congressmen and U.S. senators who were elected as supporters of slavery and then segregation between 1800 and 1965. Nor is there reference to the deal with the devil that left segregation and lynching as a way of life in return for election support for three post-Civil War Democratic presidents, Grover Cleveland, Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt.

[*]There is no reference that three-fourths of the opposition to the 1964 Civil Rights Bill in the U.S. House came from Democrats, or that 80% of the "nay" vote in the Senate came from Democrats. Certainly there is no reference to the fact that the opposition included future Democratic Senate leader Robert Byrd of West Virginia (a former Klan member) and Tennessee Senator Albert Gore Sr., father of Vice President Al Gore.

[*]Last but certainly not least, there is no reference to the fact that Birmingham, Ala., Public Safety Commissioner Bull Connor, who infamously unleashed dogs and fire hoses on civil rights protestors, was in fact--yes indeed--a member of both the Democratic National Committee and the Ku Klux Klan.
