Are you serious? I will give you this one to start with http://www.bermanpost.com/2010/02/olbermann-where-are-black-faces-at-tea.html but you should have no problem finding many others.<br /><br />It is not a question of 'canceling out', it is to say that if people think a lack of diversity makes a group racist, then they should be willing to say a group with even less diversity is even more racist.

The tea party is just on the extreme end of that spectrum.<br /><br />If your paranoid about "liberal" bias, its probably because most of everyone around you if you live in america and not in a cocoon holds what are considered "liberal" views.Ian Spencer Dubrowskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14485790945854055324noreply@blogger.com
