See.. you are such a hypocrite. When it comes to OWS you throw your own logic out the window. You don't care to generalize all OWS protestors, but you give the Tea Party a fair shake. What gives? How can anyone be expected to take you serious. How do you expect to maintain any kind of credibility?

Hardly i have been getting "generalized" for over a year what's more you use the same methodology to me as your bashing me for that makes someone else a "hypocrite" here.

I am no different than anyone else on here and yet you saw fit to target me for it.

Wow.. and someone tried to tell me that the TeaParty was just a cross section of ordinary Americans wanting to take their government back...

I was told there was no racism... that there was no homophobia... these two things which are NOT AMERICAN values....

I was told, they fear socialism... I didn't realize they also feared homosexual marriage... not only that, but that the LEADERS OF THE TEA PARTY would actually ENCOURAGE and CELEBRATE the murder of homosexuals....

This is disgusting to no end....

Are you kidding me You actually believe that in a movement of millions of people there will be no, none, nada, zip any 100% no people who are racists if the official line is not racist?

Let me fill you in on something. there are conservative democrats and liberal republicans who would give their party members cause to ponder if they were on the wrong side.

So the Tea Party's official stand on racism is that it doesn't agree with it so what, that doesn't mean some members are not racists and if you believe that I seriously question your rational thought processes. You may want to have a brain scan and soon.

Personally I would not hang fruits for decorations, they spoil too fast. Better just to throw em in the dumpster after you have used what you want from them.

This is what happened to the tea party after it was infiltrated by the sarah palin types, in order to derail the movement. No true conservative would ever believe government should ever intrude on the freedoms or choices of any citizen, whether they agree with them or not. Honestly, I wish anyone who thinks government should prevent homosexuals from getting married should walk around with "ULTRA-LIB" written on their foreheads in black permanent marker. Its crazy that these Big Brother types bandy about the "Conservative" moniker for themselves, when they are anything but.

You like to have your way with gay people and then throw them out when you finish? It seems every day now, whether online or IRL, I come across a true, all-out sociopath.

This is stupid at best!

One man does not speak for a group of people that want their government back.

I am conservative
I support the Tea Party.
I believe in the Constitution
I am AGAINST the current administration..
AND
I am GAY
If ANYONE should be hung, It should be those CONVICTED of a crime meriting the punishment.
The rest is vitriol and hyperbole

You are different as you have made threads and made yourself a very vocal part of misleading people and providing disinformation on OWS through the same tactics that are used against the Tea Party. Except when those tactics are used against the Tea Party you call it out for what it is, but when the tactics are used against OWS it is YOU that is using them! Why don't you go down to a protest like Misoir and get some first hand insight rather than trying to mislead members on what the movement is about.

You generalize because you have been generalized? I am not sure how you define the word but that is senseless. You are different. You are very different. Look how you write. It is hard to tell if your thread mocking an entire protest based on one video of one guy is self confirming of caring of medical help. After that thread, you really have no room to talk here.

Thats ridiculous, I have many many straight friends and I have never once tried to seduce them. Why would I? Their straight. I think your friends was misguided and wrong for doing what he did but don't brand the lot of us for something one person did.

"If a person demonstrates bigotry relative to race, sex, ethnicity, etc. they are not welcome in our organization."

I like how he didn't specifically mention sexual orientation.

Straight men can't be friends with homosexuals is what that lesson taught me.


Sorry you had that experience but how is it any different from a guy trying it on a girl that doesn't want it? Your lesson learned is flawed and subjective to one specific experience. My mates are all straight so far as I know and none of them seem to have the issue with me as you have with gay guys.

As for sending them all here...bring it on, maybe one of your guys is half decent!

Now if the Tea party movement began to actually endorse people like this, then you would find me at odds with them.

But what about

www.teapartyexpress.org...
teapartypatriots.org...
www.teapartynation.com...


Did you seriously just list the Tea Party Express as an example?


N Y Daily News July 18,2010

Exhibit A is a man named Mark Williams. He is listed as the spokesman of Tea Party Express on its website and formerly served as chairman of the group, whose rallies have included guest speakers like Sarah Palin, Andrew Breitbart and Ann Coulter.

Williams, as I noted in a recent column, posted (and later erased) the following on his blog on May 21, 2009: “\[R\]epeat after me: Islam is a 7th Century Death Cult coughed up by a psychotic pedophile and embraced by defective, tail sprouting, tree swinging, semi-human, bipedal primates with no claim to be treated like human beings.”

Just last week, he posted a fake letter from a fictional civil rights leader to Abraham Lincoln intended as a mocking rebuke to complaints from the NAACP. A sample: “How will we Colored People ever get a wide screen TV in every room if non-coloreds get to keep what they earn?”

Williams, once again, yanked the blog post after complaints.

As of this writing, Palin and other conservative leaders have yet to denounce Williams. The refusal of mainstream conservatives to condemn such poisonous raving is exactly what the NAACP is complaining about.

In response to the NAACP, incidentally, Williams called it a “vile racist” organization that has made “more money off of race than any slave trader ever.”

Another controversial figure is Dale Robertson, who owns the Web site TeaParty.org and describes himself as a founder and leader of the movement. Robertson was photographed at a Houston rally in Feb. 27, 2009 holding a sign that reads “Congress = Slaveowner, Taxpayer = Niggar.”

In an interview with the Kansas City Star, Robertson said the photograph was altered — that the last word originally was “slave,” not the “N-word.” But then he defended the use of the N-word: “I looked the word up in Webster, and it says it means politically unrepresented.”

Other Tea Party leaders have tried to distance themselves from Robertson. They deserve credit for at least recognizing the importance of publicly objecting to racist language and imagery.

In New York, Carl Paladino, the Republican Buffalo businessman who is running for governor and calls himself a Tea Party candidate, has acknowledged forwarding pornographic and racist emails, including a photo doctored to depict Obama as a pimp and another titling an African tribal dance as an inauguration rehearsal.


These incidents are all examples of the Tea Party's leaders - organizers, chairmen, electoral candidates, spokespeople. Forgive me if I don't believe they're not representative of their members. I also don't believe it's raining even though my leg's wet.

I do think it's funny that some gay-basher was kicked out of the TP, as we're still calling the TP "gay-haters".


Very lame conclusion, folks, very lame.


Nah, let 'em have their fun with it.

I'm supposed to be racist against Hispanics and blacks...And yet I'm a Hispanic immigrant and I've never hated anyone darker than me simply for that reason.

I live in a house with a lesbian roommate who is my wife's best friend...My best friend is a gay man.. But we all hate gay people.

Kick a gay basher out of the Tea Party? The message should have been "We don't tolerate the intolerant" instead the posters here got "Tea Party wants to hang gays".

It's classic and shows a lack of understanding.



Well said, there are ppl with prejudices in all parties.

Anyone who thinks the democratic party is free of racists is sadly mistaken.

Also from its initial inception as the tea party it has changed quite bit due to the
republicans jumping in and trying to take it over, and some say they have succeeded
in taking it over.

May be true and it might not.

But I will offer you this, prejudice has existed for a long time, be glad the dumb ass was out in the
open about it so they could boot him.

The real message here is as Vxn says, they booted him for his bad message.

The origins of the tea party were with ron paul and anti-war, anti-central bank, anti-corruption
that is rampant in both parties.

Go ahead and play your red team blue team games, both main parties are paid off muppets.

I have yet to get an answer from her. Which is fine, maybe she missed the post. but I want one from you now. Does guilt by association cut both ways? if a group is judged by who leads them are they then vindicated by those who would depose the leader in order to right the mistake?

Or are all those people who disagreed with the leadership still bad people who want you dead? Is this only a one way street? Does correcting the mistake not count for anything?
edit on 15-10-2011 by projectvxn because: (no reason given)


I think that if the leader former was "bad" and the members threw him out, than they have saved SOME face, but are still LESS trustworthy than they where pre-comment. Does that make any sense? e-e

Im gay, and I will say that I am guilty of trying to seduce my straight friends one or two times.
