MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- U.S. Congressman Steve Cohen is drawing national attention for remarks he made about the tea party movement in a recent radio interview.
The Commercial Appeal reports that the two-term Democrat said the tea party - "without hoods and robes" - has shown an angry, hardcore side of America that's against diversity.
He made the comments Thursday night on The Young Turks, an Internet and satellite radio talk show.
Cohen went on to say tea party members have shown hostility toward anybody who isn't "a clone of George Wallace's fan club," and that he has seen no Republican standing up to appeal for reason.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
As many people, like George Will for example, have eloquently explained, the agenda of the multiculturalists is to belittle and minimalize American culture by inferring that there really is no such thing as "American culture". America is not a "melting pot", they suggest, but rather is nothing more than a potpouri of many different cultures. And of course, as far as the multiculturalists are concerned, the only acceptable targets for crude, vulgar, and demeaning commentary are white Christian men. It's always open season on white Christian men.
So I post those pictures with the hope that any multiculturalists who view them will get irate and annoyed, as you apparently did, and their heads will explode.
So what's your story?
MICHELLE OBAMA: “Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we’re going to have to change our traditions, OUR HISTORY; we’re going to have to move into a different place as a nation.”
Nothing to disagree with and thanks for the response. I AM intrigued by your characterizing me as “irate and annoyed.” I am neither. I asked a question.
There is plenty of ground to defend regarding the foundational principles of the Republic that does not involve the racial angle. Even going near that is playing into our opponents’ hands, imo.
Andrew said he had when I called while Ben was on his honeymoon. I checked her out with some higher ups, and she is legit. Don’t know how much chance she has, but I choose her over crazy king willie and commie cohen any day of the week. She attends Tea Party events, went to Tupelo this week to that event. All I can say is check her out, call or email her. She answers her email. She needs precinct captains. I’ve never done more than make yard signs and hand them out for GW’s campaigns, or carry signs at the polling places for State Sen. Mark Norris.
Isn’t it interesting how a group of people who loath and oppose anybody with different opinions are the one who go on and on the most about “diversity”? What’s important is that you look different, but for God’s sake you must act and think exactly as we tell you! It’s not the Tea Partiers who are against diversity; it’s the leftists who are against true diversity.
A quick flick through the posts shows that Freepers have compassion: no one posted a picture of this Steve Cohen. He is as ugly as homemade sin.
Then I'll explain.
You were "intrigued" enough by my original post to imply (or at least speculate) that I was some kind of a skinhead. I've been posting here for almost ten years and I took offense at that and, in fact, wondered what was in your heart that you would look at two famous images and the first thing that sprang into your mind was "white supremacy".
I guess there was a misunderstanding all the way around.

After you check out the link, call the radio station or email the emcee and tell him the truth.

Diversity should be considered AN OBSTACLE TO BE OVERCOME- NOT a GOAL TO BE ACHIEVED
It is amazing in a brainwashed sense how many people including Mr Cohen willfully ignore blatant dangerous examples of multicultural mayhem and anti white destruction. Like South Africa & Rhodesia. They also like to pretend that Detroit, New Orleans, Memphis, Watts, E St Louis and many other places in this country are not only undesirable and dangerous places to live but the reasons why they are that way. Just like they ignore that 90+% of blacks voted for Obama, That Obama sat in a Black Liberation Theology church for 20 years or that many other blacks agree with the same ‘theology”. They also ignore that black violent crime is hugely disproportionate along with disproportionate single motherhood, education levels and all kinds of other racial crap. They also like to pretend that blacks and all other races that have ethnic specific political, lobbying and advocacy groups by the hundreds are not racial, are altruistic and not anti white.
It is a bunch of group think and ultimately very dangerous to nations, communities and families. It is the same kind of thinking that lead to what is currently happening in both Rhodesia and South Africa. It is also the same group think that is leading to the destruction of Europe by means of massive Muslim immigration and to the invasion of the US.
I for one will not continue to pretend the Emperor is fully clothed. You can take all your self righteous and genocidal BS and shove it.
Couldn’t have said it better myself. So refreshing to hear someone who ‘gets it’.
Some people realize that diversity is meant for whites only. And the campaign has worked extremely well. So well, in fact, that most liberal/leftist whites have no problem whatsoever with their race disappearing from this country (Bill Clinton has crowed about this). As author/journalist T.R. Reid said on a cspan interview about Europe becoming non-white; "that's fine".

Diversity simply means “fewer white people”. This became apparent to me when someone said that a university was “the most diverse” because it only had 10% Caucasians.
Tolerance is another word. It simply means accepting every perversion of society that violates traditional values.
I am sure there are numerous tar and feather techniques. I’m down for a little experimentation every now an again?
