Such behavior is pretty consistent with conservative behavior in the past.

No more than with liberal behavior in the past (I refer you to Senator Byrd).

Who was it and who asked him to resign? If one person did make a racist remark, for the sake of argument, and he was made to resign over it ... isn't that evidence the movement ISN'T racist?

BTW here is a leader and organizer of the Houston Tea Party. She has a weekend talk show on a radio station I listen to:

This is a conservative blogger from Houston on the subject of the tea party movement and diversity:

One of our organizers of the Houston Tea party was Natalie Arceneaux , a black woman. The opening statements and prayer were given by Claver Kamau-Imani , a black man. One of speakers was Cuban. We had several Hispanic organizers as well. I guess they didn't get the "white power activist" memo.
....................................

Over half a million Americans attended the Tea Parties across this nation. I've been getting a lot of comments at my Houston blog about our lack of "diversity" in the crowd. So I decided to take look at images of the anti-war rallies of the past 8 years. The first photo above is our favorite anti war ladies, Code Pink. The second pic is an anti war rally in Washington D.C. and the third is a anti war rally in Manhattan. Since Code Pink is the most well known anti war organization, take a look through their photo stream here. Not exactly a wealth of diversity there either. Lots and lots of white faces, but they were never accused of not having enough diversity, were they? I suppose Garofalo would see them as a "white power activist" group as well.

Hey, are Moveon and Code Pink racist white-power organizations? They're white through and through just like most leftie organizations.
