Former Tea Party Express Chairman to Undergo “Racial Sensitivity Training” | teapartytracker.org
No, they're not all racists, but... How many bad apples do you need before the whole barrel goes rotten?
And then there's trickle-down racism; when those at the top are spewing this kind of crap, then the sheep at the bottom take it home and give their poor kids an earful of stupidity. Great, we got another generation of ignorance.

Williams Agrees to Undergo Racial Sensitivity Training Due to Controversial Letter
Sacramento, CA— More than three months after the initial onslaught of controversy surrounding the satirical letter written, and then posted, by then-Tea Party Express Chairman Mark Williams, the outspoken front man is raising his voice on the issue. “That letter showed an unbelievable amount of disrespect and irresponsibility on my part,” said Williams. “I am extremely humbled and very thankful that my personal lapse of judgment did not detract from a cause that I think is critical; not just to me, but to every American and their inalienable rights: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
In early July, Williams posted a mock letter from “the Colored People” to President Lincoln on his blog, which brought about his eventual resignation as the chairman of the Tea Party Express due to satirical criticism of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).
