>Z, you posted some pictures of Tea Party participants who are racist.

One of whom was one of its leaders...

>I posted a major supporter of ACORN who is racist.

Because you think that Jesse Jackson is racist...

>I've also talked about employees of ACORN who are guilty of voter registration fraud. Not to mention employees of ACORN who fell for a prostitution tax sting.

Yes. But the first was a ridiculously small deal that is not systemic, and the second has been shown (unfortunately, much later) to be basically a hoax.

None of those facts about ACORN has changed your view of them as an organization that helps the poor.

>But a few pictures of Tea Party participants who happen to be racist convinces you that the Tea Party is all about race and not about taxes.

When did I say it's all about race? I think it's about having a Democrat in the White House. The racists just happen to be a part of the Republican coalition that it's particularly easy to draw into protests that stem from anger against a Democratic administration, particularly one with a black man at its head.

>See what I did there?

Yeah. You used a bunch of specious arguments and put words in my mouth. Good for you.
