http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2010/07/25/racism_at_the_tea_party/Above is a nice article describing Williams and his PROMINENT role in the party that you love. Yeah, but you never heard of him.
This seems to describe your attitude to a "T" (pun intended)-
"The Tea Party movement presents itself as a loosely organized web of groups and individuals. The lack of structure allows associates to duck responsibility for people who can conveniently be labeled as “rogue.’’ "
In other words: any time tea party leaders, or groups of tea partiers, make outrageous statements, you can easily distance yourself by saying: I don't know them, or I don't follow them, or they are not true leaders of the party.
Here is a quote by that dimwit Palin:
"“I am saddened by the NAACP’s claim that patriotic Americans who stand up for the United States of America’s constitutional rights are somehow ‘racists,’ The charge that Tea Party Americans judge people by the color of their skin is false, appalling and is a regressive and diversionary tactic to change the subject at hand.’’ "
Oh boo hoo, it makes her sad. But again, where was she when her BUDDY (yes, her buddy) Mark Williams, and her Fox News Pal Glenn Beck were calling our commander in chief a racist that hates the white race ??? Where were her stupid facebook posts then? Where was your outrage being expressed on letsun about that ??? Oh, I GET it, when it a black man who leads the democratic party, charges of racism, no matter how absurd in reality, are justified and rightfully made. But when they are made towards the lunatic fringe of the right wing tea partiers, they are just sooo offensive, and wrong, and disgusting and appalling and a "diversionary tactic".
What a load of crap.
