I don't hate white people or older people or Republican people or any people. Nothing in what I've said suggests any kind of hatred.

I'm talking about the Tea Party, not honest people with honest concerns.
The Tea Party has leaders. Their names are Beck and Palin and Hannity, but those leaders almost never take an active role in organizing events. For that, there are lower-level leaders like Mark Williams (mostly, the leaders are either talk-radio hosts or racist lunatics). Williams is hardly the exception, though. There's Dale Robertson, the operator of Teaparty.org, who is actually the guy in the picture I posted above with the sign that reads “Congress = Slaveowner, Taxpayer = Niggar.” There's the head of the Springboro Tea Party, Sonny Thomas, who posted on his twitter: “Illegals everywhere today! So many spics makes me feel like a speck. Grrr. Wheres my gun!?” And that's just scratching the surface. I've got a bookmark folder full of these people that I'd be glad to share. The question is: when will you run out of excuses?

He was told to get out by the NAACP first. The Tea Party only kicked him out AFTER the NAACP decided to go after Mark Williams. Did you intentionally leave that part out or were you unaware?

Or is that all too inconvenient because it blows your bigoted preconception of your opponents as racist Neandertals clean out of the water? Kinda like Baraka's data from a few weeks ago, showing the TP to be 12-20% MINORITY?!

Wait, you're proud that the Tea Party is 12-20% (that's a hell of a margin) non-white? Here's the actual findings of the CNN poll (which isn't scientific):
Quote:

Tea Party activists are 60 percent male and 80 percent white, with 77 percent of them self-identifying as “conservatives” and 44 percent identifying as “Republicans.” While 47 percent of Americans report making less than $50,000 a year, only 26 percent of Tea Party activists make that little, while 34 percent make $75,000 or more. The major way in which this movement differs from the Republican Party’s makeup is in geography. Only 31 percent live in the South. Twenty-nine percent live in the Midwest, and 28 percent live in the West. Only in the Northeast, where 13 percent of activists live, are they relatively underrepresented (19 percent of all poll respondents live there).

Ouch.

I can smell it in every word you type.

You've yet to actually demonstrate via verifiable evidence or compelling argument that I'm wrong. All you're doing is attacking me, which is useless in debate. Ad homs are fallacies for a reason.

I've attended several.
Here's a post from April 15, 2009 where I actually posted pictures I took myself from the first Tea Party protest I attended. So there you have real, actual, photographic evidence I've been to at least one of these things.
