[I see my hands]

Wake up whites. No kidding. Genocide is the agenda.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Don't worry MSNBC...everything is going to be all white.

[Touch Not the Cat]

. The principles and values I espouse: limited government, lower taxes, individual responsibility, accountability, liberty and honoring the traditions of our Constitutional Republic are connecting me with those grassroots Americans that attend Tea Party rallies.

Exactly. I would suggest sending this to Bill Press but I think he already knows this and is feigning ignorance as to what Americans want.

[Snickering Hound]

Just move along, nothing to see at those amnesty rallies.

[Drill Thrawl]

The reporter makes me admire Rahm and his steak knives.

"The Tea Party has raised concerns that it may have, I guess, racism build in it."
The Tea Party raised those concerns?!
I could have sworn it was the media that fabricated that "concern"...

[VRW Conspirator]

The Tea Party has raised concerns that it may have, I guess, racism build in it.

Have you stopped beating your wife yet? The Tea party did not raise concerns, but the MSM did, over and over.

[Oldpuppymax]

MSNBC...an entire network built of straw.

[MadelineZapeezda]

How’s this for a racist Tea Partyer: I would love to vote for Lt. Col. Allen West RIGHT NOW for President!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[andy58-in-nh]

This technique is called Poisoning the Well - another favorite news media logical fallacy, along with the straw man argument (”Why do you hate black people?”), the appeal to authority (”Everyone knows Professor X is a genius and he believes Y, therefore it must be true!”), and the Ad Hominem argument (we all know it well).

[Doogle]

who’s the clown host edging for a government job?

[Doogle]

MSNBC HOST: Lt. Col., our time is limited, but my last question to you.

..old couric tactic...ask a question in such away as to make a statement, then be prepared to cut off guest because of time restraints. Actually the best answer Col West could have given is "Hell no I'm not aligning myself with racist, why do you think I'm running as a Republican"

[wac3rd]

I guess the La Raza signs, Che, Hitler, Reconquista signs were of “love”.

You f ing idiot Commies newspeople!

[bert]

They are fleeing the racist who run the Black community. The Black Caucus, the NAACLP, Reverend Wright, Michelle Obamma etc

[tillacum]

What is the name of the msnbc reporter who asked Col Allen that stupid question??

[TigersEye]

And I've spoken to four or five of those rallies and I've not seen any racist type of signs.

I have never seen one either. Can one of these communist hack MSM propagandists show us one?

[backhoe]

 

[popdonnelly]

Can we get this straight. The Tea Party movement is not a racist movement. It is not concerned with race, it makes no issue out of race, there is no race component in anything it espouses. The people obsessed with race are the opponents of the Tea Party movement. Those people are political hucksters.

[LibertyRocks]

Way to go Col. West — good answer! My prayers continue for a successful campaign, and blessings to you and your family!

As for that “journalist” — is it the same guy at MSNBC that pontificated on air that the Times Sq. (would-be) Bomber was a tea partier?

I think that Tea Party Supporters who live near MSNBC’s HQ should plan to picket their offices, or something!

[conservatism_IS_compassion]

Journalists - indeed all "liberals" - are (in Mark Steyn's excellent terminology) cardboard heros. They are legends in their own mind when it comes to fighting people whom it is absolutely safe to oppose.

But for opposing actual dangers, such as jihadists threatening mayhem if not kowtowed to? Not so much.
