Yes, that was implied in my comment. Memphis has a large permanent entitled class who knows enough to elect someone who can guarantee their paycheck. Steve is oh so good at playing the part. He seems well versed in the ‘vitriol’ to keep the pot stirred.

They have to disparage the Tea Party people any way they can. They cannot let the debate be on the merits because they know they have none. This is directed straight from the DNC and the WH. Throw mud and some will stick. Throw enough mud and people will just tune out. This is called "muddying the waters" so that people cannot see the truth, all they hear is BAD stuff. The willing puppets of the MSM will gladly trumpet the talking points and magnify the knowingly false accusations, not allowing any opposing views to be aired. This is how totalitarian "regimes" work. LENIN, STALIN, MAO, CASTRO, HO-CHI MINH, POL POT, KIM JONG IL, CHAVEZ and OBAMA....................

Isn’t Cohen in a predominantly black district? And haven’t some Dem black leaders been calling for him to be repalced by a black?

Here is a profile of Cohen's district:
Population (2000) 632,143
Median income $33,806
Ethnicity 36.1% White, 59.7% Black, 1.5% Asian, 3.0% Hispanic, 0.2% Native American, 0.3% other
Cohen is playing to the fears of his constituents. He has, to use an analogy, be "more Catholic than the Pope" if he wants to continue to be reelected. His biggest challenge will come from a black Dem who wants his seat.

To: GailA
The tea party doesn’t need to defend itself from charges of racism. Their better response would have been to reply that Rep. Cohen was doing a splendid impression of Joseph Goebbels. Cohen would have been sputtering and on the defensive.

We have GOT to pay more attention to the nitwits we are electing. I’ll give BO this- his election has allowed some of our worst nutballs the chance to show themselves. Guam tipping over, reps with absolutely no knowledge of their OWN history, voices in their heads calling them “ni&&#^), and Grayson...no wonder other countries think we are losing our collective minds.

Cohen just publicly stated what the majority of his constituents in Memphis think of Republicans and Tea Party Members. This is nothing new for the most racist city in America.
To: Buckeye McFrog
Totally agree! Every single smear against the Tea Party must be challenged. Call these people out, and force them to provide evidence or apologize in a forum as public as the one in which they dished out slander.

The one and only person who may have standing is the guy accused of spitting. His face has been plastered all over the news. He may not have a case, because the accusers have backed off their statements. However, they have not publicly cleared his name.
The phantom person who allegedly said the “N” word does not exist, and therefore has no standing.
Have you noticed that the new talking points are that anyone who does not support the health care bill is “racist” because by not supporting the health care bill they are denying health care to blacks? What a crock!

The problem with comparing someone to Joseph Goebbels, is that not enough of the brain dead out there know who Goebbels was to make the point effective. And that’s by design. The last thing our wonderful govt schools would ever teach is the identity of the totalitarian propagandists of history, for fear that some of the sheeple might come to recognize some of those in the administration and in the MSM for what they are.

By the way, Steve Cohen is a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. (Code words for Socialist/Marxist/Communist/Fascist)
