I'm using the exact same logic that "Foxnews, fair and balance" uses everyday

I didn't say anything bad about them, "I'm just asking a question"

The rest of the world learned it a long time ago. The only way you want your extremist and crazy members leading the charge is as cannon fodder. Otherwise when the world gets a face full of them, you've already lost the public opinion, because to them you've accepted their beliefs.

If this is indeed the case, then what exactly is it about the Tea Party that attracts these race-baiters in the first place?

Because the Teabaggers are virtually all white. Heck, Stormfront even supports them..

The Teabaggers are nothing more than another pipeline in the white supremacist movement..

What does Obama being a "Gangster" have to do with taxes? What about Kenya? What about Obama being abandoned by his communist parents? That is all about taxes. BS

I don't even know what you are talking about.

But being a gangster is not a function of race.

Being born in Kenya is not a function of race.

Most commies are white, but again, communism is not a function of race.

If people at these events have said these things it still isn't about race.

Huh? What does the Tea Party have to do with white supremacist groups? Is there a connection that has been confirmed?

Same Reason you are silent about gang-rape groups - because they have no connection to them. Seems obvious
