The Embarrassing Racist 'Satire' of Tea Party Leader Mark Williams

[meegbear]

This week, the NAACP passed a resolution asking Tea Partiers to repudiate racists in their ranks. So, naturally, Tea Party Express spokesman Mark Williams called the NAACP racist on CNN, and then penned an idiotic racist letter on his blog.

Mark Williams! If that name sounds familiar, it's because he was the distinguished scholar who taught us all that Muslims worship a "monkey-god". Though he's no longer the chairman of the deep-pocketed, big-spending Tea Party Express, Williams still acts as a spokesman and "public face" for the organization.

On Thursday, in response to the NAACP's pretty tame resolution asking Tea Partiers to be a little less racist, he took to his blog and Tea Party Expressed the opinion that the real racists, in this situation, are the NAACP. Because they use the word "colored," see. Sigh.

And that's not all! Williams treated his readers his own little Tale of the Tub—a letter to President Lincoln from NAACP head Ben Jealous that starts thusly:

We Colored People have taken a vote and decided that we don't cotton to that whole emancipation thing. Freedom means having to work for real, think for ourselves, and take consequences along with the rewards. That is just far too much to ask of us Colored People and we demand that it stop!

Is there a word for this? Where one group condemns another group for a behavior, and a member of the condemned group turns around and attempts to repudiate the condemnation by engaging in the very behavior it was condemned for in the first place?

3. A true scumbag to make the oppression of a whole demographic group

comedy fodder. :eyes: I've asked a few "funny" guys: if slavery/oppression is so much fun, why didn't YOUR ancestors join in the fun? They seem to stop laughing very quickly--I don't know why. :shrug:

4. He really explains in detail what the teabaggers are all about when they complain about taxes.

"Freedom means having to work for real, think for ourselves, and take consequences along with the rewards. That is just far too much to ask of us Colored People"

There you have it in a nutshell. The whole reason for the teabagger movement. They just don't want any of their money going to black people.

5. Of course if you read what this racist jerk wrote it's nothing but a tirade

about black people being on welfare, the way it reads you would think that not 1 black person in the country works, they just get on welfare from birth till death and never work. Sadly that is how tea party members think, somehow they are entitled and their families are entitled to every government handout yet no one else has paid a dime in so they aren't entitled. All taxes are paid by rich and conservatives, no one else pays taxes in their little minds. It's just crazy how reality escapes their attention.

8. The rant would also have one believe there are no

white people on welfare.
