TELL ME SOMETHING I DIDN'T KNOW.......
Surprise, surprise....the Teabaggers invited a bunch of racists to the party.....
A University of Washington survey shows Tea Partiers are motivated by racial concerns. Researchers found that the Tea Party is not only about politics and the size of government, but also about race.
The survey found that among whites, southerners are 12 percent more likely to support the tea party than whites in other parts of the U.S., and that conservatives are 28 percent more likely than liberals to support the group.
It found that those who are racially resentful, who believe the U.S. government has done too much to support blacks, are 36 percent more likely to support the tea party than those who are not.
According to Christopher Parker, a UW assistant professor of political science who directed the survey:
"While it's clear that the tea party in one sense is about limited government, it's also clear from the data that people who want limited government don't want certain services for certain kinds of people. Those services include health care."
The survey found that people who approve of the Tea Party, more than those who don't approve, have more racist attitudes. Not only do they have more racist attitudes, but they also have more homophobic and xenophobic attitudes.
These results should surprise no one. From its inception the Tea Party has been stained with a racist veneer. It also comes as no surprise that the Tea Party is filled with xenophobia and homophobia. The three - racism, xenophobia and homophobia - often travel together.
