Tea Party Endorsement Rejected After Racial Controversy

7:40 pm EST July 19th, 2010 | Conservative | 3 Comments

Granted no actual Democrat should have accepted a teabagger endorsement in the first place, but anyway:

Three weeks after being endorsed by the Tea Party, a Democratic Congressman from Idaho is saying ‘no thanks’ amid the racial controversy surrounding the group.

A fiscal conservative from Boise, Rep. Walt Minnick is the only Democrat endorsed by the Tea Party. He grudgingly accepted the endorsement in April.

But the latest firestorm over Mark Williams has made Minnick go sour on the Tea Party.

    Well thank-you-not-so-much Mr. Minnick for giving the claim that these wackos are always trying to make that they are “bi-partisan” some traction, even if you did ultimately take it away.

    It’s amazing how many Teabaggers think it’s still 1959.

    The main problem is that the NAACP has strayed from it’s true purpose and is now just dabbling in politics. They are carrying the water bucket for these liberal loons. The NAACP has always been one of the most racist organizations around.
