Conservative activist Apostle Claver Kamau-Imani, chairman of the right wing blog ragingelephants.org, called the Democrats a racist party of the Klu Klux Klan at a Houston Tea Party rally. "They're the racists, not us," he said alluding to the Democratic party's past affiliation with Jim Crow and segregation.

The words were spoken at an event sponsored by the Clear Lake Tea Party where Herman Cain was the keynote speaker. Cain took the stage after Kamau-Imani and has not condoned nor condemned Kamau-Imani's comments.

"Our campaign is all about promoting civil dialogue -- while there may be differences of opinion on a wide variety of topics, we believe in never being disagreeable," Cain's spokesman toldNBC News. Kamau-Imani continued with his comments, name-calling prominent individuals.

"Somebody needs to get in Al 'Shakedown' Sharpton's face and call him a liar. Somebody needs to get in Cornell West's face and call him a bald face gap tooth liar."

1. Nowadays the Dems would NEVER associate with the KKK!

Sheesh! Just like how modern Republicans would call Eisenhower a tax-and-spend socialist for building federal highways and having a super-high tax rate on the richest. CONS sure get a kick out of "Hey look at all those 1900s Klansmen who were DEMOCRATS! Hahahaha!" And has Kamau-Imani ever listened to right-wing talk radio (of course all hosted by Republicans/fans being Rs)?

6. Nothing says "I hold a grudge" like disliking a political party from 150 years ago.

Wasn't that the Dixiecrats anyway?
