I have not seen racism at all. <br /><br />The signs I've seen at Tea Parties are almost universally policy-oriented, they don't attack individuals (well, except maybe Nancy Pelosi). The signs speak to what Obama & the Progressives are doing to the country; or they protest passing multi-thousand-page bills without reading them; or they decry the arrogant stance our Elected Ruling Class takes when they talk to and about We the People (aka The Rubes Who Elected Them).<br /><br />This Hill guy, and anybody else who claims we're racist, can just go pound sand.A_Nonny_Mousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13599733730516661522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6427940.post-91205434085541251042010-09-28T12:42:45.141-04:002010-09-28T12:42:45.141-04:00Yes, but--
