"Black conservative tea party backers take heat"

Here's just some of the crap free Americans who happen to be black have to put up with once it becomes publicly known they're unwilling to shut up and stay on the liberal Democratic plantation, where they're expected to remain simply because of their racial heritage:

"'I've been told I hate myself. I've been called an Uncle Tom. I've been told I'm a spook at the door,' says Timothy F. Johnson, chairman of the Frederic Douglass Foundation, a group of black conservatives who support free market principles and limited government."

But we're expected to swallow that the tea-partiers themselves are the racists, despite the complete absence of evidence supporting those accusations?

"Black members of the movement say it is not inherently racist, and some question the reported slurs. 'You would think—something that offensive—you would think someone got video of it,' [Clifton] Bazar, the conservative blogger, said."

Yep.  Let the liberals root out the disturbing racists  hypocritically present in their own midst before they go hunting for imaginary ones supposedly present in their opposition.  After all, they're the ones with the ex-Klansman senior statesman in the Senate.
