If you ever wonder why some African-Americans (like me, like Dad) detect an occasional racial hostility from our hometown Newspaper, the Washington Post, you have to look no further than stories like these.
So let me get this straight, a Grad Student went to one rally, by herself, in one region of the country, took random samples of Tea-Party signs and judged that the Tea Party has no racial animus. (I'm hoping Dad would like to comment on the sampling size of such a cough-cough...study.)
On the subject of Tea-Party racism, this blog has made its beliefs well-known. They're racists. Deal.
We remember the Pimp Hat emailer, the Witch Doctor emailer, the "Superboy" cover to "Tea Party comix . There are others, but I'm at work, and don't really have time to plump the depths of Tea-Party racism. This is who they are. As long as someone else is on the bottom (preferably African-Americans and/or Latinos), then the country is working just fine. Otherwise, they feel the need to "take it back".
Of course, but I want to know where the hell the Washington Post gets off publishing this garbage as if it were a proven fact.
