On the Common, no less

David Rothstein at Channel 4 tweets:

BPD: Officers were faced with a group of extremely aggressive protestors and were dutifully maintaining order under difficult circumstances.

On the Common, no less

Greg Cook took a bunch of photos of the Tea Party rally on the Common today, along with a counter protest by gay rights supporters.

Ed. note: This is the rally that was organized by the Mass. Tea Party Coalition and not the Greater Boston Tea Party.

Police Sgt Jeff Perry protected felon "officer strip-search" not the teenage girls

Then a 14 year old teenager, Lisa Allen came forward Wednesday to tell her side of the story when Republican candidate for US Congress former police officer Sgt Jeff Perry, failed to protect Ms. Allen from Officer Scott Flanagan who performed an illegal strip-search of her. Police officers are entrusted to, and take an oath to, serve and protect. Ms. Allen said Officer Perry protected Officer Flanagan but not her. Ms Allen went further and said Perry "should not be in a position of power."

Tea Party finds bearded Marxist running for office in Delaware

Anonymous — Thu, 16 Sep 2010 21:01:43 +0000

..except he's not bearded and he's not a Marxist, he's a liberal Democrat who fights for working families.

In May 1985 Chris Coons wrote an article for his college newspaper, The Amherst Student, titled “Chris Coons: The Making of a Bearded Marxist.”

In September 2010, the article has Tea Party members and some republicans convinced they’ve found a smoking gun. Chris is a Democrat running for US Senate in Delaware.

What did Chris mean when he wrote “a Bearded Marxist?” How did he come to write it?

Mark Williams as spokesman for the Tea Party Express is like David Duke as spokesman for NAACP

Anonymous — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 01:52:35 +0000

Earlier this week the NAACP called on the Tea Party to reject the racism that exists within its own ranks. Tea Party activists responded saying that racism isn't a part of their movement. But then yesterday one of their biggest leaders, Mark Williams, the public face of the Tea Party Express, attacked the NAACP calling it a "racist" organization and that "they make more money off of race than any slave trader, ever."

He went on to write a blog post implying that Black people don't like to work or think for themselves, that Black people depend on welfare, and that they want to benefit from White peoples' tax dollars in order to have a wide screen TV in every room.

Scott Brown to the people who helped get him elected: Thftpt!

Brown to give Tea Party rally in Boston a pass; flack earns pay by claiming senator who found time to campaign for John McCain in Arizona now too busy to show up in the largest city in his state.

Rally To Expose Tea Party for What They Are

Where are all the Black Teabaggers?

rsiasoco — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 19:05:33 +0000

A stupid question, but worth asking: Are there any members of the Teabag party who are also people of color? I've tried to find images of African Americans, Latinos, Asian Americans, or Native Americans to no avail. The right's extremely popular wingnuts don't seem to have a place at the table for non-whites. What's up with that?

Bob Cesca wrote a fantastic deconstruction of what I've sensed--but lacked the directness to state: the Teabag Party is racist. What's his evidence, you ask?
