So the Tea Party is racist, eh? Can you give us some examples?
Uh, no, "I'm not thinking about them right now." And my favorite, "I think they're racists against women."
Obviously to be a good progressive foot soldier your brain must first be turned to mush.

All this type of thing does is demonstrate how certain groups in the community lack education.
You can pull exactly the same stunt with questioning people with right wing points of view.
It proves nothing except how embarrassing it can be if you have a extreme right or left view point.

Yes, you can get this sort of thing on either side but in this case they've been told by their leaders and prominent journalists for 4 years that the Tea Part
y is racist without any proof. That should trouble you but apparently it doesn't.
We conservatives don't institutionalize ignorance the way the left does, we tend to be much more rational in spite of ignorant stereotypes like this one and the pathetic notion that we're "flat-earthers" for questioning allegedly "settled science" that keeps missing predictions and failing to produce supportive data.
In fact, I'd say libs are more likely to be racist, intolerant, "flat-earther" types than conservatives.

Equal in value and worth. I can't help it if your side doesn't think people are worthy of more than indoctrination into ignorance.

Tal irrespective of what you constitution says, men were only created equal before God, in all other respects various inequalities exist as is clearly demonstrated by your government each day.

I find it amazing that 50% of your population could consider astrology scientific, I expect this is the same 50% who live in poverty, the same 50% who wouldn't vote republican and the same 50% who would elect Obama a second time. But the statistics don't reflect this, so go figure a third of republicans consider astrology scientific, that is the same third who say climate change doesn't exist

"Yes you can say that sort of thing on either side but in this case they have been told by their leaders and prominent journalists for four years that the Tea Party is racist without any proof."
Isn't this precisely the problem? There is no institutionalized racism in most Western democratic nations. Anyway,none that any political organization is prepared to admit to. Such attitudes will never be found in any policy formulation.
As far as your country is concerned, the trick seems to be to portray the other side as having ingrown racist attitudes. That is to say. the institutionalized remnants of racism.
When you come to think of it the whole business of trying to portray the other side as racist is pretty pathetic.

tutt you have hit on it they are pathetic, in fact tragics. They hide behind their political correctness, not daring to describe a person in racist terms whilst being specific about race all the time. There can be nothing more racist than pointing out that an afro-american is an afro-american or an italian american is an italian american as if these are sub humans everyone must be made aware of

I agreee there is no institutionalized racism.

That's the M.O. of the left, not the right.

Yup, and now the good folks at MSNBC are blaming the UAW vote loss on racism right on cue.

Appealing with what, dog whistles like "urban" and "golf"? The Southern Strategy is a thing of the past, just as racism would be if your side would stop calling us racists for no damn reason.

You need to prove we're racists or shut up. Better yet, just move on to reality.

I don't have to prove anything nor does anyone who votes against you guys. I doubt seriously if I will follow your suggestion of shutting up, no matter how nasty and disrespectful you are yet again.
That's the reality you either deal with, or DON'T! Makes me no difference. Sure as hell doesn't change my opinion. Don't care if yours changes or NOT.
