Thread: proof that the tea party is racist

I don't think the Tea Party violates any part of the Constitution, but still its ideas don't appeal to me.

I think the guy's T-shirt message is actually aimed at making fun of all those who accuse the Tea Party members of being racist.

I wonder how many people missed the obvious sarcasm. I had a hidden message in the OP that I will enhance (CSI:Miami style).

What we do know is that this idiot proudly proclaims "I'M A RACIST".

What we do know is that some people here are bending over backwards to find excuses for his statement of racism.

What we do know is that its not enough for them to offer an excuse but to take this as some sort of personal issue and stay on it like white on rice.

I do not remember saying any of that. Perhaps you could quote my exact post where I said those very words?

Apparently a lot of people, because I just got an infraction for joking around...

He is an idiot to take a sarcastic shot at people like you?

Its people like you who make his point even more salient

Could you print the transcript of your interview with him? I would love to hear his explanation.

Perhaps your relationship with him accounts for your passion in making 18 posts defending a person who publicly admits to I'M A RACIST. You defend him as if you were an old fraternity brother or a member of the same club.

Just about everyone else gets the point that wearing that t-shirt is far more likely a slap in the face of the ninnies who claim being a tea party activist=racism then a real admission of being a racist. Its to poke fun at slow witted lefties who have no sense of reality or humor. As another poster noted, its in the same spirit as Christians buying tea shirts that mock extremist islamists who claim anyone who isn't a jihadist is an infidel.

That you haven't figured that out is rather telling

That you are willing to make 18 posts offering excuses that you invent out of thin air for somebody proudly proclaiming I'M A RACIST if the most telling thing in this whole thread.
