If you’ve read my other posts and videos showing the existence of blacks and other minorities at Tea Parties, you might be asking, How long will I insist on posting more of them?
The answer is: Until the race-obsessed lefties like the clowns on MSNBC and on “The View” (thanks for nothing, Meghan McCain) stop perpetuating the lie that Tea Parties contain an undercurrent of racism.
Since they can’t win on the issues, calling the Tea Party movement racist is really all the left has. And so Rachel Maddow calls Tea Partiers racists in white hoods. The equally clueless Keith Olbermann calls them the “Tea Ku Klux Klan” who want to bring back Jim Crow Laws (If Olbermann actually read a history book other than Howard Zinn’s, he’d know that both the KKK and Jim Crow Laws are Democrat inventions) and ranting that Tea Partiers should come out and admit their racism. Chris Matthews characteristically makes up facts has he goes along, like “Every ‘teabagger’ is white.” And naturally, all the lefty websites and blogs have labelled the Tea Party movement “the new face of racism.”
So, as already done here, here, here and here, below is more footage of blacks and other minorities at Tea Parties. Not only attending them, but actually speaking at them as well. This montage was created by Randy Haddock, a Tea Partier from Brooklyn. On his blog Haddock writes:
Response to Olbermann: ‘People of color’ at Tea Parties
So last night that race-peddlin’ buffoon over at MSNBC… wait, that’s pretty much everyone on that network. Let me be more specific. OK, so, last night Keith Olbermann used his self-parodying Special Comment segment to ask the following question: Where are the people of color at the Tea Parties? Now, implying and outright saying that Tea Party protesters are racist is commonplace in the far left. No news there. But two things in particular bother me about his question:
First, his choice of words. People of color? Who are these colored people he’s referring to? What does that mean? It may be because I’m not a native English speaker, but I find this “people of color” business to be really bizarre. So as a Boricua, am I colored? I guess I’m olive but if I hit the beach on a sunny day I can be golden brown. Is he referring strictly to skin color? Culture? Ethnicity? I mean, I’m not that much darker than Mr. Olbermann himself. Do I fall into his “people of color” category?
Or, as I suspect, are “people of color” just code for those who deviate too much from the skin color which Olbermann seems to deem as the standard? I mean, come on, Olbermann has no color, right? He’s white. That ain’t no color. That’s just how it’s supposed to be, right? So, all I can think of is that he means “black.” Black people are colored, and everyone else is just normal and a-OK. Man, this race and colors stuff is difficult to understand!
And secondly, the question is stupid, the premise terribly moronic and the insinuation totally insulting. The Tea Party protesters aren’t racist. Are there a few kooks with nefarious motivations? Sure, every movement has them. It’s nice how, during the Bush years, the MSM did everything they could to whitewash the fringe elements of the antiwar movement, but I digress. What’s Olbermann’s evidence that Tea Parties are overwhelmingly racist? Apparently, that there are no “people of color” at these rallies. That is so blatantly false as to induce uncontrollable laughter. There are people of all backgrounds at the Tea Parties. But even if an event is dominated by a certain race group, what does that prove? Similar to what Glenn Reynolds said earlier this month, if you look at a group of white folks and the first thought that pops into your head is “racists!” then you have some serious issues.
So I put together this video response to Olbermann’s burning question. Here are his “people of color” he’s been inquiring about:
Oh my goodness, look at all those racists cheering for these black speakers! Look at all the colored people walking freely among Tea Partiers without being beaten up, strung up on a tree, or dragged behind a pick-up truck! The cognitive dissonance! What do we do?
Please understand, by showing this I don’t expect to change the minds of lefties like the MSNBC crowd. They don’t know I exist. Plus, they are not capable of changing; extremist ideologues usually aren’t. What I do expect to do is to inform and educate you, dear reader, that each and every one of these charges of “racism” is patently false. The Left knows that history is not on their side, and that in the arena of ideas they are losers with a capital L. So, as with every other issue, they resort to what they know best: name-calling.
UPDATE: Someone who goes by the moniker “Davidandbroliath” posted yet another response to Olbermann’s “Where are all the black people?” question. This video is awesome:
