I love the MSNBC Aerial shots of the Teabagger Rallies.....

[FrenchieCat]

Seem quite sparse!

However, I wish they would show the signs that equates our President to Hitler,
and the fact that there were mostly White People.

Part of why Twitter has been so heavily promoted by the corporate media,
was exactly to try to get the GOP to start using technology. LOL!

1. I prefer Helvetica shots. Arial is a cheap and ugly knockoff.

[FrenchieCat]

2. Fixed!

[biopowertoday]

3. Stop with the race baiting. Haven't we had enough of that crap!!

[FrenchieCat]

4. It is what it is.

You can always close your eyes real hard, and maybe that will personally help you.

[biopowertoday]

8. Yes, the OP is race baiting. And you

feed into the hate that is out there with your slimy post.

[FrenchieCat]

9. Whatever.

Keep thinking that I'm encouraging this bullshit.
and keep thinking that dragging a Black person tied to the back of someone's truck
didn't happen rather recently.

The race baiters are already out there. It ain't race baiting to point them out.

[countingbluecars]

11. I see nothing "slimy" about her post.

The pictures, videos, and interviews of the people yesterday speak out loud and clear. A lot of yesterday was about race.

[Arugula Latte]

12. What the hell? ... The racist creeps with the racists signs are race baiting, not the OP. nt

[Occam Bandage]

15. Calling racists racist isn't race-baiting.

:shrug:

[countingbluecars]

18. Not about race?

21. Do you have amnesia?

The innumerable acts of violence committed against all sorts of people by haters were clearly telegraphed with their hate speech prior to those actions.

It is in NO WAY race baiting to point out the OBVIOUS racial slurs coming out of the tea party crowd.

(Posted earlier, and I have to run so can't post further, but it's odd that a DU member would attack an OP on this basis.)

Having lived through segregation, and experienced the Civil Rights movement first hand I was basically silent yesterday as I carefully watched this hate filled outburst unfold. After the blatant racism and hate ginned up by Palin et al it's painfully clear that "anti-other" hatred still festers just below the surface in some people. The whole fuzzy focused nature of these demonstrations left plenty of room for that ugliness to bubble up.

I'm not laughing at these delusional idiots. There are some genuinely dangerous people in the group. One's personal memories don't have to go back to the days of Billie's "Strange Fruit", three men buried in a dam, Medgar Evers, or Martin Luther King to be aware of the danger. One has only to remember Timothy McVeigh, and abortion clinic bombings to realize how quickly this sort of hate can turn violent.

38. Calling people out on racism isn't race baiting.

It's stating the painfully obvious.

[Botany]

13. a rush listener ..... operation chaos

:grr:

[biopowertoday]

22. How Rovian of you to post such a comment.

[AtomicKitten]

26. "Rovian" -- Inigo Montoya: "I do not think it means what you think it means."

n/t

[biopowertoday]

27. Intelligent folks will grasp its meaning.

[AtomicKitten]

28. my point exactly

;)

[hileeopnyn8d]

37. Did you not see his hat?

I can't believe you called someone Rovian for stating a fact.

This place can be so odd. It's like bizarro world sometimes.

[OnyxCollie]

33. Check the "Operation Chaos" hat.

How'd that work out for ya, stupid freeper?

[ericgtr]

10. Find us a rally where there are any other black people besides Obama's head on a stick

and maybe we'll stop bringing it up. Honestly, this is more than worth pointing out. The GOP are nothing but a bunch of uptight, ignorant white people.

[madmom]

14. Truth hurt? It is what it is!

[Tempest]

17. Where's the race baiting?

Are you denying the protests were attended by overwhelmingly white crowds?

In my town, Blacks were told by the cops not to visit the area because they might be singled out by the crowd.

[DevonRex]

19. You seem to be the one with a problem about race. Leave FC alone.

[biopowertoday]

30. LOL...........

You make FC out to be a victim.

[Cha]

25. Excuse the fuck outta you..

for trying to shut down the obvious.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

31. How is pointing out that a rally fed by white supremacist groups, where several

speakers made racist comments, and people hold racist signs with NO repercussions is racist race baiting?

[akbacchus_BC]

34. Just my humble opinion, if you want the race-baiting to stop, you should

have attended all the tea bagging hatefests and direct your statement to them.

Never before have I seen so much hate, ugly and stupid congregate together and to actually see that they are training their young ones to continue the hate, is mind boggling.

[Drunken Irishman]

35. BULLSHIT! Many of these people are racists!

Many of them still refer to Obama as a Muslim.

Open your fucking eyes.

[Deep13]

5. When Beck said he was going to the perfect place for a tea party...

...I figured he was going to say "Boston." When he said the Alamo, I just laughed.

[Occam Bandage]

6. A site commemorating armed secessionism by a pack of illegal immigrants?

I didn't know Beck was a fan of that.

[Solomon]

7. I couldn't believe that either. Then he had the nerve to spend time

on educating his sycophants about how it was the best place to be, and how they lost and died there.

:wtf:

[Arugula Latte]

16. Did you see Stephen Colbert rip that concept to shreds last night?

Too funny!

[Deep13]

20. Damn Mexican Nazis!

:rofl:

[rvablue]

29. Colbert is doing and excellent job of dissecting Cry Baby Becks wingnuttery

I was laughing outloud last night. Colbert is a genius!

And the interview with that young Congressman from Illinois. I don't think I've laughed that hard in 10 years! :rofl:

[Arugula Latte]

32. "The Shocker! Ooowww!"

:rofl:

[jenmito]

36. Kick. It bugged me, too, that MSNBC ONLY showed the "tax-related" signs and banners

and didn't even MENTION the fact that there were many unrelated and/or racist signs and banners let alone SHOW any of them. :eyes:
