Of Course, Tea Partiers Are Not Racist

by tristero

They just pretend to be racists. My favorite quote:

“If we end up with a concentration of students underperforming academically, it may be easier to reach out to them,” [Art Pope, a board member of “Americans For Properity.” a tea-party organization] said. “Hypothetically, we should consider that as well.”

When I come across something like that, something so utterly stupid and so utterly sick as to defy belief, I need to remind myself that this crazy country of ours has also been home to true greatness.
