This Carson and most of the CBC are just whipping up the fever hoping to rally the vote, and discredit anyone who associates with any TP group. It's an old tactic. They will play the race card over and over and over until the November 2012 election.
I think it was Archer that asked if someone else had been elected president instead of Obama would still there be the Tea Party Movement. It’s un-provable of course but I believe there still would be the Tea Party Movement, if the government was still spending it’s self into oblivion and trying to control more and more of our lives. The Tea Parties are not about a certain individual being in the Oval Office.
Actually I don't think it was me....but I disagree with your conclusion. I think what I asked was where was the Tea Party movement when Bush was spending us into debt? Is it just Obama they hate, or just as likely anyone who isn't a Republican who looks, and thinks, and votes like they do.

Obama set a record for spending early on for starters, the Tea Party movement was also against the Republicans for NOT being fiscally responsible which would include what Bush did. It's really just a war against Keynesian economics when you get down to it....we either spend our way out (how's that working?) or we put the brakes on spending, unshackle businesses, and revamp the broken tax system.

Now what was the topic again?
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
Archer, have you ever actually spoken to a TP member regarding race, or specifically the president's race? Or are going on something you heard from Ed Schultz, Rachel, Mario or one of the other lefty radio talking heads?

Since I don't listen to any of those, I have no idea what you mean when you claim I am "going on something" I have heard.
As to talking to Tea Party members.....well yeah....I have. And to former Tea Party members, and there are Tea Party members who post here. So what's your point?
oops.....edited to add I have actually heard Ed Schultz....can't remember if he ever mentioned the Tea Party on race matters those times. I figured we needed full disclosure here.
Not the way I like it.....with butter, garlic, and lots of salt
Yum! Ok, now I'm hungry!
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
