A new analysis of political signs displayed at a tea party rally in Washington last month reveals that the vast majority of activists expressed narrow concerns about the government's economic and spending policies and steered clear of the racially charged anti-Obama messages that have helped define some media coverage of such events.

Amy Gardner puts the "anal" in analysis.

By "some" media coverage, she obviously means all media other than Fox News.

But Ekins's analysis showed that only about a quarter of all signs reflected direct anger with Obama. Only 5 percent of the total mentioned the president's race or religion, and slightly more than 1 percent questioned his American citizenship.

And, of course, there's no way to know how many of those signs questioning Ubama's race, religion or citizenship were RAT plants.

Another “Welcome to the Party Pal!” moment.

Racially Charged Anti-Obama Themes

That's their thought process in a nutshell; Anti-Obama = Racist.

WaPo: Few Signs at Tea Party Rally Expressed Racially Charged Anti-Obama Themes

The WaPo is sure slipping. Finding out that the Republicans are not evil or that they are innocent of anything isn't scheduled until about a week after the election.

Someone at WaPo will be losing their job over this.
