OK - the Teabag Protests are not in themselves White Power rallies

But the folks protesting are white, have white power stickers on their cars, are carrying racist signs and love spouting the obviously racist "Obama isn't American" meme.

So if the Klan is sitting around a table eating peaches, its not a Klan rally, but it sure looks like one...

3. I noted stickers with the Battle Flag of Northern Virginia on them

on one of the vehicles at one of these protests. Noticed signs that implied blacks would enslave whites and take all their money, too.

Technically these might not be white power rallies, but I'd say they are recruiting grounds for white power groups.

4. And, well, you'd be right

Ron Paul rallies weren't white power rallies either, but a very fertile recruiting ground for such

5. Any white man who is part of these groups is a total loser.

White men have had so many breaks in this country it's literally criminal.

6. These are the SAME people still pushing that "Obama birth certificate" bullshit

They still won't let that go. They're convinced that he's a closet Muslim (excuse me, that's Muslin).

7. Wealthy elite white power rallies

Edited on Wed Apr-15-09 03:53 PM by Lorien

The teabaggers are soldiers for the ruling elite above all else-and entirely clueless ones at that. They don't even realize that everything they are protesting began with a wealthy white male Republican.
