Tea Party Federation Expels Mark Williams over racist post

First Posted: 07-18-10 01:48 PM | Updated: 07-18-10 01:49 PM

The National Tea Party Federation has expelled conservative commentator and Tea Party Express spokesman Mark Williams over a fictional letter Williams wrote on his blog last week from "Colored People" to Abraham Lincoln.

"We, in the last 24 hours, have expelled Tea Party Express and Mark Williams from the National Tea Party Federation because of the letter that he wrote," federation spokesman David Webb said Sunday on CBS's "Face The Nation."

Williams wrote the blog post, which has since been taken down, in response to a resolution adopted by the NAACP accusing Tea Party leaders of tolerating racism within the movement.

Dear Mr. Lincoln," began Williams' letter.

We Coloreds have taken a vote and decided that we don't cotton to that whole emancipation thing. Freedom means having to work for real, think for ourselves, and take consequences along with the rewards. That is just far too much to ask of us Colored People and we demand that it stop!

Webb called the blog post "clearly offensive."

Rightardia is happy that the "Tea party"s starting to discipline some of its racists members after denying the overt racism.

It is also clear the Tea party is simply a re-branding of the GOP. There is no difference between a Tea Partier and and plain ol' Republican according to the Gallup Poll.

NYTimes.com: Tea Baggers are hard right ideologues

While most Americans blame the Bush administration or Wall Street for the current state of the American economy, the greatest number of Tea Party supporters blame Congress.

They do not want a third party and say they usually or almost always vote Republican. The percentage holding a favorable opinion of former President George W. Bush, at 57 percent, almost exactly matches the percentage in the general public that holds an unfavorable view of him. According to CBS news, Bush left office with a 22 per cent approval rating.

It is clear these people represent the losers in the 2008 elections. The Tea baggers are made up of ditto heads and other far right extremists.

Oddly, the Tea Party supporters said they did not want cuts to Medicare or Social Security — the biggest domestic programs. This is probably because most of the Tea Baggers represent the Baby Boomer generation who are receiving the benefits of these two federal programs.

The want the government to focus on “waste.” Certainly fraud is a big issue in Medicare which represents a $60 BILLION THEFT FROM TAXPAYERS. Health and Human Services and the Justice Department now have seven Medicare fraud prosecution strike forces in place — in Miami, Houston, Los Angeles, Detroit, Brooklyn, Tampa and Baton Rouge. Medicare fraud is a big problem in Florida. 

Since the first strike force office opened in Miami in March, 2007, the strike forces have indicted more than 460 individuals and organizations for allegedly billing the Medicare program falsely for more than $1 billion. Fifty nine billion to go!

Conservative goal: No health reform at all

August 11, 2009

Conservative activists are now admitting that the goal is no health care bill at all.

A conference call of conservative groups, including the National Tax Limitation Committee, the American Liberty Alliance, the “Tea Party Patriots” and others, organizers encouraged their members to pressure Republican negotiators not to back any any compromise health reform bill.

An AFL-CIO official who listened in on the call reported the GOP strategy. “The goal is not compromise, and ANY bill coming out this year would be a failure for us,” the call moderator said, according to AFL-CIO’s notes.

The conference call was first reported by Greg Sargent over at The Plum Line. The notes were also provided to POLITICO.
