11%? So 89% say this is not an issue. Ok.
Where does this 11% fall in relation to other polling data sets?
Context fail.
"In a lengthy investigation into the fledgling political movement that has made tremendous waves nationally, Amy Gardner reported that the Post identified more than 1,400 Tea Party groups across the nation and spoke extensively with 647 of them about their philosophies and ambitions.
"Eleven percent said that Obama's race, religion or ethnic background was either a 'very important' or 'somewhat important' factor in the support their group has received," the Post concluded.
As per the Post's reporting, that amounts to over 70 Tea Party organizations (eleven percent of 647) that willingly concede Obama's race is fueling their members' activism."

I'm totally ambushed by this. Who woulda thought the holy, pure, colonial-costumed tea baggers would be racist? shocked! shocked!
Next question: Is Magic Negro TOO UPPITY SMART for the dumb s?
We know they prefer ignorant jerks like dubya, pitbull , O'Dummel, Angle, etc, etc.

pull your head out, dude. only 11% were stupid enough to admit it.
oops.....forgot to blue that.
that was my first thought. if they wanted to make the TP look good, none would have said that.only 11% were stupid enough to admit it.
100% could say it was a non issue and I wouldn't believe them.
true, but at least they wouldn't be as dumb100% could say it was a non issue and I wouldn't believe them.
tbqh, this was always a su ion of mine. if our country is at war with muslim terrorists, then it's only logical to have a negative impression if your president is also a muslim. i mean, that's what this is really about, fwiw
The Tea Party has more black members than NPR has black news analysts. NPR did have one (Juan Williams) and now they have zero.
How many NPR news analysts object to Obama's skin color, Darrin?
That would be relevant to the thread.
I wonder if the 16% unemployed blacks and 49% of unemployed black teens are advocates of Obama's policies. If they are critical of Obama (like that woman who said she was tired of defending him), are they racists? I'm just curious, because libs are really obsessed with iden y politics.
Tell us if those black people object to Obama's skin color, Darrin.
That would be relevant to the thread.
"Eleven percent said that Obama's race, religion or ethnic background was either a 'very important' or 'somewhat important' factor in the support their group has received," the Post concluded."
Why do you consider this an implication of objection to solely his race, when the more obvious answer is his ethnicity (IE, the birth certificate debate) or his religion (constantly slandered as some form of Islam or unorthodox Christianity), both of which are much more easily argued?
Boutons fails, per the usual. These people are caught up in the birth certificate BS and the Reverend Wright BS, not his race. Not much better, but your assertion is obviously inaccurate.
Oh, so some of the teabaggers object to what they think is his Muslim religion or object to his African background.
Or the white American part of his background.
Makes sense.
is there a birth certificate debate?
Those people think there is. I agree there isn't, but that's a moot point for this topic.
the terminally stupid having a voice in the countries future is hardly moot.
I think it's more
1) him supposedly "lying" about his religion, or exaggerating about Reverend Wright's indoctrination.
2) the birth certificate stuff, not the fact he's black, but the idea he could not be a natural American citizen.
Whether these points are viable is obviously not my argument. I am simply pointing out that race would seem the least likely issue of the three.
New to America?
since 74. you?
Then you should realize the Cons ution protects the terminally stupid's right to a voice.
i do realize that. you thought i didn't.
If you do, you also realize why I said whether their points are viable is a moot point. If they think it's an important issue worth opposing the President over, in the face of evidence, it is their prerogative. IE, it is moot to discuss such viability here, since I am only pointing out what they consider viable, not whether it qualifies as such.
oh, i agree.......and funny that anyone thinks they have a true voice in the end.
