Well, this certainly isn't convenient for all those race baiter's out there.
A study conducted by a UCLA grad student at the 9/12 taxpayer march on Washington contains some bad news for one of the mainstream media’s favorite narratives: the old ‘racist teabaggers’ meme.
Conversely, quantitative observation showed that the alleged racism was not prominent at the rally, at least not as far as signage is concerned. And to think Obamacrats wasted all those race cards for nothin’.
A count of 250 tea party signs at the march showed most promoting a message of smaller government “touching on such topics as the role of government, liberty, taxes, spending, deficit and concern about socialism” according to the Washington Post’s story on the examination.
Doesn’t sound too much like racism – except for those die hard Obamabots who helpfully inform us that ‘socialism’ is code word for n----r. Of course, those guys criticizing the President’s jumpshot is hidden code for racism, so there ya go.
The investigation showed only 25% of signs expressing antagonism towards the President himself, only 5% touching on the President’s ethnicity or faith, and a piddly 1% promoting Birtherism.
I presume the 1% was newly anointed birther Jake Tapper, respected journalist of ABC News – or once respected until he had the temerity to ask for the President’s long form birth certificate the other day.
The teabag obsessed Obama apologists at MSNBC and the New York Times will no doubt be bitterly disappointed to learn that despite the breathless hype, racism no more typifies the tea party movement than honest unslanted analysis typifies their political coverage.
