Time for the Dem Party to attach racist Teabag wingnutedness to the Republican Party. |
|
By calling on the Republican Party nationwide to DENOUNCE the rising racist elements of the Teabag movement.
The bone through the nose posters, the jokerface posters, the rise of right wing hate on the net, hate talk radio, Glen Beck.
It's time for us all to realize, that the GOP has declared war against President Obama and the Democratic Party.
Racism is as real as it gets. Racism is a rising threat.
The GOP is clearly feeding the rise of racism. And doing nothing to denounce it.
Time for the Democratic Party to fight this disgrace now and fight it hard.
Call on the GOP to denounce racism in their party and to denounce the Teabag movement.
Run TV ads. Fight fire with truth.
Swing voters will be turned off by the GOP if Dems make this a real issue. Voters need to be made aware.
Blatant open racism must stop and is the reason why Dems need to take a real stand.

1. I fully agree with you, but it seems like the racist element is getting a pass. |
|
The teabaggers say that racism has nothing to do with it, and it seems like the media is accepting that answer.
Some of it is "blatant open racism", as you say, but most of it is unspoken. Some of the teabag sympathizers may not realize it themselves.

2. KO, Ed, Rachel, Dylan talk about it pretty often but even they need to make it much more .. |
|
of an issue. All 4 of them should start calling on the GOP to denounce racism and call on them to do so nightly. Make a huge issue out of it.
Racism is real and a serious threat. I know you are aware of that. Fighting racism is the right thing to do, and it is a threat that needs to be fought.
Not sure if the Dem party would ever win over a teabag sympathizer, but it's the swing voters that need to be made aware, IMO.

I'm writing an email and going to send it out to many different Dems with hopes that someone will listen.
