Re: [the obvious: that racists have been infiltrating tea-party gatherings because any criticism of America’s first black president gives them a buzz.] "Ridiculous."

How can it be 'ridiculous' when you have white supremacist groups admitting it to the press --- that they are trolling many such gatherings for new recruits?

Billy Roper is a write-in candidate for governor of Arkansas and an unapologetic white nationalist.

"I don't want non-whites in my country in any form or fashion or any status," he says.

Roper also is a tea party member who says he has been gathering support for his cause by attending tea party rallies.

"We go to these tea parties all over the country," Roper said. "We're looking for the younger, potentially more radical people."

What's so hard to believe about that?

(If I was trying to sign up new recruits for my particular white power group that's exactly where I'd be looking too... just makes common sense.)
