The NAACP did NOT call the tea party racist

[bigdarryl]

What they issued out to the tea party is to take to task some members in the tea party to stop the racist rants against people of color and sexual orientation.But once AGAIN we have the wing nuts on radio and TV(FOX)lying there asses off to start up trouble.

...with the sentiment. Opinion polls prove nothing.

4. Tea Party Spokesperson on NPR this morning:

"The NAACP has made more money on race than any slave trader ever did."

:wow:

Good defense, dude. :rofl:

5. Fox is appearing to create division whereever they can. I listened

to NAACP and they referred to elecments in the TeaParty.

Fox and the Republicans leave themselves open to be judged
in an unfavorable light when they kneejerkedly protect
questionable characters.

All parties on both sides would do well to simply accept
the fact that there are people who can be called racist
and time will eventually solve some of these situations.

There are some who from the beginning could not and will
not accept the fact there is a black man in the White House.
To be fair this is not the whole Republican Party.

Some Congressmen including Vitter play into and pander to
these people by supporting the idea of Birthers suing the
Government. You have to remember there are many who
grew up and lived in sections of the country where you
do find clusters who have not been able to move forward
with the country re race and race relations. We know the
tactics. They know better than to be outright racists.
Therefore, they find another "fault" and go nuts on that
issue. They hope by using this issue they accomplish
their inner racial disgust. They want their country back.
(from a black man). They cannot say this outloud. Ah,
let us say he is illegally in office and get him out
on that basis--in their warped thinking, no one can
call them racist. Vitter(Harvard grad and Rhodes Scholar)
knows better. Holding office is so important that
he stepping in the gutter. When Republicans with his
background stoop this low, it makes many not trust any
Republican.

In the polls the Republicans still fall lowest in approval.
These divisive issues will hurt them in the long run.

Winning the battle and losing the war is not a good strategy
for a party who wishes power over the long run. Fox will
eventually lose audience with all their negativity and
creating dissenstion.
