TEA PARTY = RACIST ? HERE IS WHAT I FOUND

FOR ANYONE JUST TUNING IN, THIS IS A FOLLOW UP. THE COMMENTS UP UNTIL APRIL 6, ARE FOR THE ORIGINAL ARTICLE ASKING FOR PROOF OF TEA PARTY RACISM. I deleted that for space to add the following.

 THANKS FOR THE IDEAS, AND LINKS.

I believe I checked what is directly in line with the original question. Side issues have been left on the side, as to give whatever time I could to the main subject. The few links, and thoughts directly of the issue werer not enough to really answer anything. I had to go back to my original idea and grab some of the most popular charges of racism that have been in the media

The links that asked me to read a book, or some PHD giving psychological reason people think one way or the other might be fun, but does not fit the scope here. While the main links that I looked at were very liberal biased, I did not discount checking them out. After all, who else is going to do the racism claim. It won't be found on The Blaze.

I started writing about each claim in the links......My God this was going to be 30 pages. So, sorry, but I will give only a few examples and a general discussion of most.

The link to IREHR.

 A site dedicated to finding racism, and working with the NAACP. The first thing is the one that was disturbing. It claimed that a man named Dale Robertson, who held a possible racist sign was a leader of The Tea Party. After searching, it  appears he has not been a leader, and the Tea party has distanced themselves from this man. I found many notation for this. However even Mother Jones, calls out the Washington Post for falsely claiming so.

Almost all the the IRHR article has baseless acusations, and linking of people. Nothing in the article made real life connections. A lot of the article unintentionaly shows the Tea party to have no racism. They talked about groups that were racist, and how the groups wanted to try and recruit Tea Party member, but it wasn't working. One they noted, is called stormfront. I looked for the site, and I saw a discussion of how they were yelled at and turned away by the Tea party They (stormfront) even provided the video of being turned away. http://www.stormfront.org/forum/

Most  of the IRHR article, they tossed up a person or group, wrote a paragragh of why they were bad, then assessed that because they also belived in Tea party ideals, that the Tea party platform must be the same. That has no logical value.

I looked further. the accusations in every instance I looked at had severe credibility issues. Their are stories that go across the country in 100 publications branding the party as racist, all based on one reporter from one source going on here say.

One of the most famous acusation of racism came on April 13, 2010.

Rep. Carson is referring to is his claim that while he left the Cannon office building on March 20 with Rep. John Lewis, they were verbally assaulted by health care protesters hurling the “N-word” at them. He said the scene was so hostile he “expected rocks to come”  This story went around the world.

The problem with the story....It didn't happen. While Andrew breitbart offered $100,000 for video proof that no one of the many dozens of video were recording at that moment. You can find almost any source you want to find out that it in fact did not happen.

This is what I see from my perspective. Their is a desperate need for Democratic operatives to demonize the Tea party. The media ....it makes great TV. Anything that possibly looks racist is magnified and replayed forever.  

While their may be some racists people in any group, I don't see anything more or less than the general population of white black and anyone in the country. I see both the Democrats, and entrenched Republican establishment afraid of the Tea Party. It upsets the apple cart. Some even state that it is Some key Republicans that give others the go sign to kill the Tea Party.

Yes, people that really believe the Tea Party is racist will not change their thinking. You look for yourself. Simply take a couple of the racism claims, and follow the story. Follow it to the original writer. Look for the actual proof. Then try looking at the other side of that claim to see if the "racist" was a left wing infiltrator. Then check to see if that racist was on the scene for five minutes but kicked out of the event. This is what you will find I believe. No I won't say their are no racists. Of course not. But I believe 98% of claims or not honest reporting, and most likely false.

I truly thought I would find many cases, as I watch TV also. Now I know it is not so. If they can make me think its true, even though I never saw it at the one event I went to, they surely must have most others believing as well.
