Over at Legal Insurrection Professor Jacobson displays the liberal talking point in bumper sticker form. It reads:

“TEA PARTY”
sounds so much
nicer than
“Mob of Racists
and Homophobes”

I’ve had some personal experience with this talking point. A few months ago a fellow Rotarian,said to me out of the blue that he thought the tea party is racist. He has since tried to suggest he wasn’t referring to me specifically, which I find ludicrous since I am a founder of the Sturbridge Tea Party.

Over the Christmas holiday I made a comment about Eric Holder and my own mother asked me if I have “always been a racist”.

This is the same mother who raised me to believe that differences are the most interesting thing in the world. Apparently that motto doesn’t apply to political ideology in her mind.

One of my best friends reminded me that her sister-in-law, accused her of the same thing some time ago.

Does anyone dispute that Obama has been the most divisive president in the history of this country? If Obama doesn’t destroy the USA with his policies, he will surely destroy it with his campaign tactics.

And the media is complicit.
