Tea party shows signs of racism, no tolerance

I heard Joe Biden declare that the tea party is not a racist organization. It is obvious that Joe has never gotten out of his house in his youth very much. The tea party has displayed every kind of racist sign it can think up. I haven't seen one that uses the "N" word, but I am chalking that up to the good taste of the media who hasn't dared to show one.

I was with Martin Luther King in Selma, Ala., on "Bloody Sunday" and I saw hundreds of signs that were exactly like the ones that the tea party waves around. What's the difference? With their close allies, the Republican Party, they only gain in spewing their bad taste and outmoded ideas.

If I was a member of this either of these bunches, I would disclaim my membership and renew my membership in being a tolerant human being.
