Topic: Tea Party and Racism

http://www.newsweek.com/id/236996


I personally do not believe that either George Bush Sr. and Jr. were born in the United States and that they should prove their citizenship by showing the american people documentation of their birth within the United States of America.

I also believe George Washington wasn't born in america either and that he should be denounced as a president of the united states of america.  Show me his birth certificate.

Ohhhhhhhh wait...we don't ask white boys for their birth certificates because after all, arn't all anglo-saxons, americans to begin with?

I personally don't believe that the current governor of California should be governor at all, after all he sure as hell wasn't born or raised around these parts.  Citizenship be damned, and dual citizenship be damned.  How do we know he had our best interests at heart.

=^o.o^= When I'm cute I can be cute.  And when I'm mean, I can be very very mean.  I'm a cat.  Expect me to be fickle.

Re: Tea Party and Racism

unfortunately the supreme court legalized dual citizenship in the 1960s

Re: Tea Party and Racism

smile And the Supreme Court has been seesawing Abortion for a while, wouldn't put it past them to overturn any past decisions on other matters, like dual citizenship.  Dual citizenship is usually awarded to those showing that they are discriminated against to the effect that their lives would be endangered in their homeland, or that they have done something or will do something of great value for the U.S.

Though certain people hand it out like candy if they vote the right way or give up a sizeable donation to certain party officials.

So...does this mean I can legally put Arnold on the write in campaign for president of the United States?  If he's a "citizen", then he's a citizen, and allowing him to run for governor but not for president would be against the ideal that we cherish that any "citizen" can become a president.

Re: Tea Party and Racism

"If black people won't work hard they should end up like white trash in San Bernardino County" bet that would get 90% from the racially resentful Tea Partiers

Tea Partiers defend earners against govt without regard to race

that is the new racist

Re: Tea Party and Racism

why is most of the tea party made up from older white republicans?

Sore losers?

Not many people know this, but I own the first radio in Springfield. Not much on the air then, just Edison reciting the alphabet over and over. "A" he'd say; then "B." "C" would usually follow...

Re: Tea Party and Racism

its not largely republican and not largely older

>>Grand Junction, Colorado (CNN) -- They are not typical Tea Party activists: A woman who voted for President Obama and believes he's a "phenomenal speaker." Another who said she was a "knee-jerk, bleeding heart liberal."

These two women are not alone.

Some Americans who say they have been sympathetic to Democratic causes in the past -- some even voted for Democratic candidates -- are angry with President Obama and his party. They say they are now supporting the Tea Party -- a movement that champions less government, lower taxes and the defeat of Democrats even though it's not formally aligned with the Republican Party.

To be sure, the number of Democrats in the Tea Party movement is small. A recent CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll shows that while 96 percent of Tea Party activists identify themselves as either Republican or Independent, only 4 percent say they are Democrats.

Some of these disgruntled voters are taking part in the current Tea Party Express tour. The tour began in Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's hometown of Searchlight, Nevada, on March 28 and is making 44 stops across the nation. It ends in Washington on tax day -- April 15.

Ann Ducket attended the Tea Party rally in Grand Junction, Colorado, on Wednesday.

A lawyer and lifelong Democrat, Ducket made her political leanings clear: She said she was a campus community organizer for Democratic Sen. George McGovern's 1972 presidential campaign, voted for Jimmy Carter and Al Gore, and previously ran for elective office in Colorado as a Democrat.

"I was a card-carrying member of the ACLU, and I probably did inhale in college," Ducket said.

Ducket, who is now an independent and did not vote for Obama, said the president has "carried things to an extreme."

"I think we've gone too far on the side of government doing too much," Ducket said. "The Democratic Party is wanting to take care of everyone, instead of helping everybody stand on their own two feet."

Roxanne Lewis expressed a similar point of view. A small business owner in Grand Junction, Lewis described herself as a lifelong Democrat and called the president a "phenomenal speaker." She voted for him because she "believed in what he was saying: change."

But, Lewis added, "I should've listened a lot closer when he talked about 'spreading the wealth.' "

Asked how she feels about having voted for the president, Lewis said "I feel lied to, cheated and raped."

Lewis criticized the taxpayer-funded bailouts of financial institutions, which began under former President George W. Bush, and the bailout of General Motors and Chrysler.

"These are not the Democrats that I have been brought up with," Lewis said. However, she said she will continue to be a Democrat.

"We hear from folks, probably at every rally, who say, 'I was a Democrat,' " Levi Russell, communications director for the Tea Party express tour, said.

"Having more Democrats join the movement shows that it is more representative of the American people than the antics of the Obama, [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi, Reid leadership," Russell said.

The Democratic National Committee declined to comment.

David Saucedo is a rapper and community activist who frequently appears at Tea Party rallies. Using the stage name "Polatik," he performs rap songs that slam President Obama and the Democrats.

Though he eventually voted for GOP Sen. John McCain in the 2008 presidential election, he said he was initially impressed with the president.

Now Saucedo has turned into an Obama critic. "A lot of the things he says sound good, until you look at the consequences of what they will do on the long term."

Saucedo also said that most of his family voted for the president but now support the Tea Party. He said his sister in law's views sum up the family sentiment.

"She regrets voting for Barack Obama," he said.

it's funny how you guys twist and turn trying to find the REAL reason millions of people stand in our streets demanding less regulation, less taxation, less spending and less bailouts.  Are they bigots? Did they work for the Klan? Are they getting back? Is there some deep trauma?  Of course NORMAL people WANT to turn the United States into France!

Re: Tea Party and Racism

So, you all think we're going to turn into communists and socialists and your all scare shitless is what your saying.

All that 1950's mcarthyism crap come back to haunt you all.

Except this time it will be republicans back in office grilling all americans, "Have you or have you not ever been a member of the Democrat Socialist Party"

You just wait.  You'll get your court appointed attorneys with your automatic Guilty for sedition against the "people" of the United States Government.  That's all you Tea baggers want is your Trials and your pound of flesh.  Because that is what Tea Baggers will lead us to. Unending trials Teabagism.

And of course they may show favoritism at your court trial if you give them "names" of other democratic sociliasts.

Oh give me a break.

Whatever, give the left their freedom and they start bitching about having it fully subsidized and guaranteed a monopoly and a bailout.

Re: Tea Party and Racism

I don't think the demographic data of a protest against unsustainable spending is any defense of unsustainable spending. If their protest was unfounded, the focus would be on that. But nobody in their right mind can claim that current spending rates are going to be anything but absolutely and certainly destructive for American society.

If there's any story here, it's that there aren't credible sources of racist claims coming out of the Tea Party. We're all sure there are racists in the Tea Party, just as there are in every organization and activist group of any sort on the right and left. What's remarkable here is the lack of racism and violence in the Tea Party movement.

I'm not a member, by the way. tongue Dispute my claims! My character is impeccable!

Re: Tea Party and Racism

Yes I'm sure political veteran Hillary Clinton chose to completely forgo the possibility of having Barack Obama disqualified from the Democratic presidential candidate race in order to reduce her own chances of becoming POTUS.

Re: Tea Party and Racism

Hillary Clinton is a political veteran? I thought she just inherited her first politics job from her husband a few years ago. tongue
