Party Like It's 1773 . . . Make That 1963!!

I've said before the first tip-off to the racism of the tea party "movement" was that they were reaching to a time antebellum, before that awful war of "yankee aggression." That others tried to deny the racism was to me a joke, but at times I did entertain them. I wanted to display an open mind. My mom used to tell me, "Seek to understand before you seek to be understood."

That Joan Walsh seems to have taken a year to come to terms with that, which may be a reflection of racism on the left - their annoying habit of giving white racists the benefit of doubt for the sake of being objective, it sort of sad in itself. I mean, damn. They really did have to spit at black Congressmen and call them niggers and call Rep. Barney Frank a faggot for someone to just accept that, yes, they're a bunch of homophobic racists in the order of the KKK.
