>Besides, what you are perpetrating here is an ad hominem attack. Don't like the anti-tax message of the Tea Party? Call them racists and bigots. It's that simple.

No, that's not it. Not at all. The point is that it's a hell of a lot easier to get racists and bigots involved in artificial populist anti-government campaigns than people who aren't racists and bigots, through use of "dog whistles" and other symbolism. And that's what's going on here.
