Tea Party not racist, eh?

Tucker Carlson said:

“So, you say they are racist, give us examples.”

Better yet, I’ll give you the opinions of Tea Party supporters themselves. They admit they are prejudiced:

Tea Party: prejudiced against marginalized groups?

If that isn’t good enough, there are many pictures and videos to be found online showing Tea Party supporters holding signs portraying Obama as a stereotyped person with big lips, nose and ears, as a monkey, as a tribal African, as a Muslim, and as a terrorist. The implication of these portrayals is that Obama is an inferior person and not a real American.

Rand Paul: Racist or Radical?

This video provides a concise argument explaining why Rand Paul is a regressive asshat.

I don’t think he is a racist, but I suspect he might be racialist. If he isn’t either racist or racialist, I’m not sure he is radical either. The argument he proposed has been made many times before… even if not recently among respectable company.

One commenter to this video gave the best answer in saying that Rand Paul just seems ignorant of US history. Not racist or radical, just ignorant. Ya know, just another rich white guy blind to his own rich white guy privilege.
