Tea Party Successfully Pushes Wake County School Board To Turn Back The Clock, Re-segregate Schools

The Teabaggers are a bunch of white cranks who really are nostalgic for the "good" old days, huh. For people who are so careful about denying any racism in their ranks, I'd say that fighting for segregation doesn't do much to convince people otherwise:

Tea party groups have succeeded in reversing nationally praised school integration policies in Raleigh, North Carolina, decrying the longstanding system as one of social engineering.

The Washington Post reports that tea party pressure has motivated Wake County School District's largely Republican school board to abolish policies the newspaper describes as "one of the nation's most celebrated integration efforts."

"Say no to the social engineers!" was one of their slogans.
