"It would be a mistake to claim that all Tea Partiers are nativist vigilantes or racists of one stripe or another, and this report manifestly does not make that claim. As this report highlights, however, all of the national Tea Party factions have had problems in these areas." As US elections near, the Tea Party garners some inspection.

This post was deleted for the following reason: I think we've got enough open discussion of the Tea Party phenom, maybe drop this in one of the open threads? -- jessamyn



 
Oh boy! An FPP about Tea Partiers! Haven't seen any of those lately.

Pardon me while I drink myself into a blind stupor. I'll sober up by November 3 to survey the damage.

This could probably go in one of the 87 open threads.

I'm glad I voted by mail a week ago. Now I can tune the next 2 weeks out like 75% of the electorate will.

Ah, forgive me, I was so excited about something so comprehensive that I didn't check the archives thoroughly.

"As I said, at this point we've been at a post a day for a few days and that's about enough. People should maybe put Tea Party related links in one of the open threads for a few days and not start Yet Another Thread about this." -- jessamyn, yesterday
