They were the real racist in the country and most true progressive liberals still are.

I was not defending Paladino or his comments. You assumed I knew what you were speaking of and I did not.
The point I was making is that if a word is used by one group, in an off hand sort of way, then everyone should be able to use that word in that way. Which I did when I was younger, without thinking about it most of the time. I was an honorary "brother from another mother".
In todays society it is a word used often in movies, music and probably a lot in the "real nice street corner in downtown Buffalo" you have picked out for me. The word has no power over people except for the power they give it.
If Paladino was telling racist jokes then that is totally different and he should be called out on it.
Why would you even ask what I am talking about and then give some nonsense excuse that does not apply when I already said who I am talking about.
You said "racial elements" in your first post.
Notice the "s" on the end of "elements"?
That implies that you had other issues with the TP other than
Paladino.
Thats why I asked "what other racial elements" you were referring to.
You could not answer so you chose to attack.
Thank you for being a perfect example of what I am saying though. Carl Palladino thinks that the N-word is funny and instead of you TP folks ousting him for being racist,
As to what Palladino thinks is funny I haven't a clue.
"You TP folks"? I find that just as offensive as the word your so scared of.
You assume an awful lot. I actually am not a member of the TP but I do agree with their main goal.
you defend his use of the word 'n-word'. NICE!
Ooooooooooo you wrote the N-word! Wait till I tell all those people in downtown Buffalo ( that YOU stereo typed into one big group) what you did!
Their gonna get you.
Why don't you clean up the racism in you own life before worrying about it being in others.

Not sure exactly what you are trying to say in this post.
I think I understand some of it though so I will take a poke at it.
(Maybe you should ask Misoir to give you a lesson in American Political History. You may rather hear it coming from him than me. But I will try. )
During the Civil Rights movement it was the Democrats that did not want change. They were the more "racist" of the two parties. And some think they still are.
They figured out a new way to enslave minorities and gain most of their votes in the process by using programs like Affirmative Action and a lot of the Government (tax payer) funded entitlements.
The Republican Party of today is a joke. The Democrats are worse.

Um, huh?
That is the worst deflection I have ever seen. Not one thing in your post even remotely relates to what you replied to. I did not need your history lesson and I have no clue what it has to do with the 2010 elections and the current Tea Party.

Did I? When? Where? If you do not believe me that you will not get away with telling many of his jokes on this particular street corner, come test it.

Yes you did.

On the first page of this thread in your post- www.abovetopsecret.com...
See, what I don't think you are bright enough to understand is that ATS fixes the post so there are not any offensive words seen.
They do not, however, fix your pre-post. If you want to see where you wrote it, go to the link above and hit "quote". Are you sure your not a racist?
When you can bring something of value to the conversation I will respond to you until then ........................you have proven yourself childish and inmature.

I am honestly completely lost here. I did not quote the post you were referring to because not quoting it did not erase it. I can go back to it, can you not? You went on and on about history when I am talking about now. Carl Palladino was not being supported by the Tea Party 50 years ago so I have no clue why you were going on about it. If you just want to toss out random odd junk then do not let me stop but you do not pretend it makes sense.
To replace them all with new OLD Republicans that believe the same crazy stuff as the Republicans in there now. Right, smart, not Republican, not racist.

Do some research on the Old Repuplican Party.. You are making yourself look rather stupid.
You might actually find that you agree with the older version.
