Tea Party and Racism

Listening to CNN on the treadmill today, I watched a brief report about "the Tea Party movement of the Republican Party."  Come on. As if we didn't already know that CNN was the party propaganda outlet of the DNC.   Friends, the Liberal establishment is desperate to paint the Tea Party Movement as just another bunch of Republican right-wing crazies: if they can squeeze the Tea Party under the Republican tent, then potential blue collar Democrat-leaning voters will be turned off by that.

Or that is the hope. But just in case, the second avenue of attack is racism. I am utterly sick be being told that to question or disagree with the Administration is racism. Which harkens back to the last post on Obama's choice to list himself as "black" as opposed to bi-racial.  With this firmly in place, he can continue to wield the shield of "racism" against criticism of his politics: the decision to reject "bi-racial" is politically motivated.

The trouble is this: Americans are tired of that crap. His Administration is characterized by simply terrible decisions, domestically and internationally, all aimed as social reformation and change of the American social fabric. But Americans liked the way we were ... and are. And object to be called racist because they disagree with the Administration.

From Webster's:

Main Entry: rac·ism

Pronunciation: \ˈrā-ˌsi-zəm also -ˌshi-\

Function: noun

Date: 1933

1 : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race
2 : racial prejudice or discrimination

— rac·ist \-sist also -shist\ noun or adjective

So how does the DNC and Liberals derive "racist" from disagreement with a particular Administration of the United States? Merely because Obama is "black?" That is a sophistry that is both tired and false ... not to mention insulting.

On the same CNN piece, another man was interviewed who complained that the Tea Party adherents were responsible for maintaining the "divided nation." That they were holding on to beliefs that prevented us from coming together under Brother Obama. Hmmm. Let's look at that the other way around: the nation is divided and it is the Tea Party's fault because they won't cross over the divide and "heal" the nation. So it is the people who identify as Tea Partiers that are morally or otherwise obliged to change their beliefs to accept Obama? How so? Says who, apart from those on the other side? Remember Obama PROMISED to make the legislative process more transparent and bipartisan? Wasn't it a tenet of the Obama faith that he would bring people together? Now we are told by Liberalism's useful idiots, the media, that it is our (Tea Party-type people) fault that we are not together as a nation ... because we choose to retain our beliefs of fiscal prudence and representation for taxation?

Since when have you EVER been able to point to genuine conservatives and realistically accuse them of trying to deny another their political views and rights to express them. By contrast, the Left is on a crusade to label all independent thought "as a real threat to the Administration" (Rachel Maddow's words, speaking for MSNBC), citing the Oklahoma City bombers as the logical extension of Tea Party activism!!!!

Only more reason to stand up against these morons.
