Heres an anti-healthcare reform ad running in the US right now that is somewhat disturbing. It is titled “I guess I’m a racist” and the ostensible intent is to mock the assertion that at least some of the opposition to Obama’s policies arise from racism.
My subjective response to the ad is that it powerfully affirms racism whatever its other goals are, and there really are racists in the teabag, anti-healthcare reform movement:
On Stormfront, the most popular white supremacist Internet forum, members have discussed becoming local organizers of the “Tea Parties” and finding ways to involve themselves in the events. Many racists have voiced their intent to attend these rallies for the purpose of cultivating an “organized grassroots White mass movement,” with some suggesting that they would do so without openly identifying themselves as racists.

This is news?
the GOP is 58% birthers== racists.
The Secular Right Blog might as well be called Secular Racists.
Even Daniel Larison is a member of the white supremecist seccessionist organization the League of the South.
The Conservative movement is all racists now, either overt or covert.
Everyone else has died (like Jack Kemp) or left the building.

Just like the conservative movement is all WHITE.
Except for Michael Steele, Michelle Malkin and one other notable exception that shall remain nameless in deference to Aziz’s wishes.
