True Colors

The Tea “Party” is showing its true colors.

From an anti-healthcare protest today:

From CNN:

Protesters hurl slurs and spit at Democrats

And from the conservative media powerhouse Fox News:
Black Lawmakers Allege Health Care Protesters Hollered Racial Epithets at Them

So far it’s looking like the Tea Party is nothing more than a bunch of Limbaugh fans come to life; white racist homophobes scared that a black man is in the White House. It’s getting harder to see this any other way.

It’s one thing to oppose legislation. It’s another to aspire to become the American Taliban.
