so there's no central structure to the tea party and you're quite adamant about that
(i don't doubt it btw....i spent some time with tea partiers over the 4th and found them a pretty disparate but affable bunch whose politics ranged from people who confuse ayn rand with a philosopher to outright neo-fascists--but nice. you know.----to monetarists to social reactionaries to lost old anarchists to apolitical people who are for whatever reason mobilized this way...the only things they had in common were (1) they were freaked out about Something. Something Big. The Way Shit is Going. Something Big that was "explained" a couple times to me with: Whatever, dude, just look around. and (2) they hadn't been politically active before. so remarkably naive.)
but you assume that somehow the naacp "controls" the new panther party?
you're joking, right?
and you know about the panther party how? through the lens of a search for a false equivalent? isn't that getting tired? conservative media has trafficked systematically in the false equivalent and projections based on them for years. the tactic is transparent. why continue with it?
