1 - Your comment about the Tea Party and any (false) charges of racism against it, its about one image on the web site of one candidate. 2 - That image has nothing to do with racism. Juvenile? maybe, but not relevant to our discussion and not very important in its own terms. Do I think everyone in the Tea party is racist? No. Do I think the incidence of racism is higher among tea baggers than the general population? Yes. The issue keeps cropping up whether its in speeches or in demonstrations. The fact the movement is 99% white in a country that is multi racial doesn't hurt my perception either.
