So what does a "Texas Boo" sound like? Maybe it's regional accents that have you guys hearing it wrong.

lol, you're making up human reactions to avoid the obvious. What is the intent of whatever sound you think they were making then, WC? It's so laughable that anyone could think it was something other than a "boo".Quote:

I think the point I would make is that it didn't represent a very large part of the audience. Four or five people, at the most, from the sounds of it. And, that really loud idiot should have been removed from the venue, IMO.Quote:

I'm keeping the "boo" alive to keep them form focusing on the bigger picture.Quote:

can you provide any empirical data to prove that the large part of the liberal population claims that any critcism of Obama receives is because he is black? other than your opinion?Quote:

Most Democrats think members of the Tea Party movement are racist. Most Republicans and voters not affiliated with either party disagree.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that among all Likely Voters 31% believe most members of the Tea Party are racist. Nearly half (48%), however, say most Tea Party members are not racist. Another 22% are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
But 56% of Democratic voters say most members of the small government, anti-tax movement are racially biased. Seventy percent (70%) of Republicans and 55% of unaffiliated voters reject that assertion and say most Tea Party members are not racist.
The survey of 1,000 Likely U.S. Voters was conducted on October 4-5, 2010 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.

Nice strawman too. That's not what George asked either.
This a poll about the tea party... We are talking about a 'large majority' of liberals claiming that critcisms concerning are Obama are based soley on race..do you have another poll to show that?Quote:

And, I think there are more people that identify with the Tea Party, many of them black, ideals than you give credit.
Conservatives, libertarians, and The Tea Party all oppose Barack Obama because he's the embodiment of the liberal progressive agenda. We believe it is a flawed ideology and we also believe the first half of Obama's presidency is bearing that out. Period. It's that simple.
For suggesting that, I've been called racist.
That is a large majority of liberals claiming that criticisms concerning Obama are based on race. 56% is pretty large.Quote:

I also think you fundamentally misunderstand the nature of the Tea Party. It's not a political party as much as it is a collection of ideals -- most of which are conservative ideals -- that embody what conservatives believe about government.
Nobody runs on a Tea Party ticket. You don't hear any Republicans distancing themselves form candidates, closely associated with the Tea Party, because they're racist.
I don't understand why people can't simply disagree with Barack Obama because we think he's wrong.
By the way, I've never been to a Tea Party function or identified myself as a member of the Tea Party yet, I get painted with that brush because I happen to agree with most of their ideas.
Top House Democrat: Opposition to Obama is Racist
That's the number three Democrat in the House.Quote:
House Assistant Democratic Leader James Clyburn, the highest-ranking black member of Congress, has a simple explanation for Barack Obama’s political woes. I’ll give you three guesses, and the first two don’t count:
RACISM.
