Anita MonCrief, infamous ACORN whistleblower, was asked to go on Sean Hannity’s radio show Thursday the 20th to discuss the founding of America’s first black Tea Party.
Named after the first person to die in the Revolutionary War, the Crispus Attucks Tea Party was founded January 18th, 2011, at “This Is It” soul food restaurant in the heart of Houston, Texas’ 3rd district. (Read the interesting original court documents about the “Boston Massacre,” including a dramatic description of Attucks’ slaying, here.)
The 3rd district is Represented by Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, and was the focal point of rampant ACORN-style vote fraud and widespread voter intimidation this past November. It is thus fitting that this tea party had its inaugural meeting right down the street from Lee’s residence.
With the typical politesse and considerate attitude of conservatives — always left unreported by the press (do ya think?) – Rep. Lee was extended an invitation to the event. And with typical leftist rudeness, Lee snubbed it. Wonder why? These are her constituents, after all.
Surprisingly, the local Fox News channel reporting on the event hastened to observe that many attendees at this founding meeting were white. Simply unbelievable. Is it not even possible to attend an event in support of the group without the information being somehow skewed by the media to suggest that it wasn’t “authentic” because white people were there???

Sharpton, Jackson, et al will call this a racist organization, or will they?
Head up by Earl Grey no doubt.
Really...this is stupid. Why are they intentionally segregating themselves?
(no I didn’t read the entire article)
Maybe they meant Black-Tea (as in not Green, White, or Red) Party...
;)
you’re so witty, you’re so witty you’re so witty and pretty and...oh nevermind lol
“Why are they intentionally segregating themselves?”
Because they are IGNORED by the MSM when they are with the rest of the Tea Party...which would I’m sure is fine with them. But then the MSM takes it one step further and calls the Tea Party racist or at least lily white. They really have no other way to stop this propaganda.
Because they are black, of course. Otherwise, they probably wouldn't be allowed to segregate.
So blacks aren't racist and by having a Black Tea Party it couldn't possibly be racist? Also, is their something wrong with being 'lily white'?
They really have no other way to stop this propaganda.
Just not sure which propaganda you are talking about. The propaganda that whites are evil or the propaganda that it is alright for blacks to use race but whites are racist?
I understand your point, but I am really happy that they are joining the force. It will gradually be ok for more of our fellow Americans to be TEA partiers of any color you want.

The caller to Sean’s radio show?
Good point. Hadn’t thought about it from that perspective.
Awww, such wit
:P
This is intentional segregation and will not bode well for the TEA party idea in general.
Not a good thing, IMO.
>> This is intentional segregation and will not bode well for the TEA party idea in general.
In the context that I have no concern for the Left’s distortions, I disagree with the premise that the formation of likeness constitutes segregation.
Providing the Tea Party principles are held, our sense of unity cannot be bound to the notion that we must at all times be indistinguishable from one another - in any sense.
bump
I think the label "Black Tea Party" should be shouted down at the top of our lungs.
This is not a black/white thing, it's an "American" thing.
They are simply stepping up as Americans like every patriot in the Tea Party, and we heartily welcome them.
Thanks.
