Tea Party backed New York gubernatorial candidate Carl Paladino emailed the two pictures above to friends, associates and coworkers. Teabaggers see no racism in these pictures. More Tea Party non-racism from Paladino here.
Of course there was no racism involved when Los Alamitos Mayor Dean Grose (Republican) emailed a White House watermellon patch picture to a local businesswoman and city volunteer (Keyanus Price). Grose claimed he was unaware of the racial stereotype that black people like watermelons. Teabaggers were outraged but certainly not over the racist implication of this picture, instead they were appalled at the attacks on Mayor Grose's 1st Amendment right to free speech.
That's Dale Robertson to the left. President and one of many, many self-proclaimed founders of the Tea Party (TeaParty.org). Move along. No racism here folks.
Teabaggers couldn't understand why the picture below sparked so much controversy. After all, if it's ok to compare Bush II to a monkey, there should be no problem doing the same to the First Lady. Right?
Then of course there's all those non-racist signs sported by the tolerant teabaggers at their rallies. Teabaggers will tell you it is impossible for them to be racists.
Teabaggers Exercising Their 1st Amendment Rights:
"Mexicans Are Filthy Stinking Animals"
"We Can Fight Al-Qaeda, We Can't Kill Obama"
