Just curious Tom Tancredo, your last name certainly isn't American or even European sounding for that matter, so, just who are you to be saying who is a “real” American? But, at least you don't try and hide your hate with the big tent lie that the rest of your ilk, sorry, party does.

The Tea Party nonsense is a PERFECT example of corporate money and astroturfers funding political activity. At the 'convention' TP speakers admit their target is the 'multiculturalism', THE 'multiculturalism' which ushered PBO into the White House. Because of monied interest, the small TP demographic is given a lot of press and air-time with the expressed purpose of main streaming racism.

Dear Mr. Tancredo:
Name one Obama voter who was not a “real American” by the Constitution's definition (not yours).

Otherwise put up or shut up.

Hopefully the people who are in the Tea Party as an expression of their disappointment at their persoanl position in life will realize who they throw their lot in w/
The other thing is I doubt you can give a literacy test to people whom voted for Sen Obama because they are colorblind, don't know their shapes(elephants and donkeys definitly look different) and don't know their alphabet.

What do you mean, “where is Steele?”
He's an affirmative-action hire, Republican-style.
He's not going to say anything.
And even if he does, he'll be ignored.

I keep telling y'all that they are working toward trying usher the Jim Crow-era back in. All of the negative remarks about blacks not being good parents, thugs, welfare recipients, out of control, etc., aimed at black folks and derogatory remarks, disrespect, and comments to try and make the President look weak is same ole tactics they used back then when they started Jim Crow before and was the cause of the exodus of blacks to Liberia. You young folks had better stay on it and not sleep at the wheel and nip it in the bud. These tea-party folks is on a mission and that mission is to go back to the good old boy days, when black folks was supposed to stay in their place. If you think history doesn't repeat itself well I got news for you, it does if you let it.

“People who could not even spell the word ‘vote’

Yeah Rikyrah,

Where is Michael Steele on this? Where is D? We're talking Jim Crow ish here.
Tancredo might as well come on out with it and say....niggers...and be done.

This is blatant in your face racism. WTF is this? 1960's?

Ok. Glad it wasn't just me that noticed this. I didn't think they would make it through the weekend with out some racist sentiment being expressed. However I am surprised it happened so quick.
