[split] Tea Party & Racism
#4
RE: Proposition 8 Ruled Unconstitutional by a Fed. Judge
I said that in terms of political views, I am on the same page as them. There are a lot of bogus accusations that the Tea Party are racist, when the truth is that their position of anti-government is seen as more of an anti-Obama, and that message is then used by racist people on their own.

"Think Progress" put out a famous video trying to claim that the Tea Party was racist. Not only did it contain apparent "racist" comments by a white man who was standing with his black wife and mixed race son, but it also contained footage of people who were either crashers (i.e. not representatives of the Tea Party) or events that took place years before the Tea Party even formed.

Most of the Tea Party are libertarians anyway. Libertarians are for government non-intervention in marriage...
