Tea Parties Arenât Racist: White Supremacist
- Thread starter hermit
- Start date
Evidently Lucrum and his silly ilk are saying occasional whining about Bush policies in this or some other forum when Bush was in office (but not actually doing anything, let us note) somehow equates to the street-marching, protesting tea baggers of today.
Yeah, and sitting at home grumbling about the Vietnam War was "exactly the same thing" as going out and marching and getting called a traitor and getting attacked by cops and right-wing construction workers.
What was it that got the tea baggers off their asses and away from their keyboards? It had to be more than just the policies, which, as has been pointed out, are basically Bush's policies.
worthless fool...
have you always been so worthless?
If not, when did your worthlessness begin?
The tea party didn't exist then, so how could there be tea party protests? There was however, much objection and protest to dubya's policy, including right wing objection. The tea party movement didn't exist, so it's kind of stupid to ask for references to it before it's existence, don't you think?

This drop comes as Bush tries to resuscitate the comprehensive immigration reform bill in the U.S. Senate, which has angered many Americans -- particularly conservatives -- because they believe its provisions allowing for a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants amount to âamnesty.â Bush and other supporters of the legislation dispute that charge.
Texas Republicans Against Bush
The corruption in Texas which allows Austin to collaborate with Washington in ramming illegal immigration down our throats, could not exist if we Texans had the right to place a statewide referendum on the ballot to stop it!

If racism is the only argument the left can mount, they will lose the argument. Illegal immigration isn't about race. Conservatives and most of America did not support the Bush postion on immigration. Also, they didn't support it when Ronnie Rayguns was jamming his slave trade policies on immigration.
If the "people" actually get to decide this issue, illegal immigrants, their supporters and apologists, have a tough road ahead of them. It's unlikely that the people will decide because the scum Dem and Repub power brokers in D.C. want the votes and the slave labor of the illegals.

Agreed, illegal immigration isn't -- or shouldn't be -- about race. Unfortunately racists make up a significant portion of the anti-illegal activists (imagine how that makes an anti-racist, pro-nationalist like me feel). Other states would be wise to follow the model of California's Prop 187, which was as race-free as an anti-illegal-alien proposal could be. Arizona has put itself in the unfortunate position of looking like racial profiling, which left it vulnerable to accusations of racism, whether justified or not. That it was written by a guy who seems to pal around with white supremacists doesn't help one bit.
The question asked in this thread was why the teabaggers didn't feel strongly enough about this issue to take to the streets before Obama became president. The timing does seem suspicious for most of these teabaggers who were oddly silent when Repubs were in charge.
