Few signs at tea party rally expressed racially charged anti-Obama themes
washingtonpost.com
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.
...
Ekins's conclusion is not that the racially charged messages are unimportant but that media coverage of tea party rallies over the past year have focused so heavily on the more controversial signs that it has contributed to the perception that such content dominates the tea party movement more than it actually does.
See when you take a group as a whole it paints a different picture then when you cherry pick what you want to see.
We as we have been saying are not racists.
