But of course, the douchebags try to say The Democrats sent him there.

"You go to Reverend Wright's church? He's a racist, too."

Still.

At least some of them are ashamed to be so openly racist.

1. He infiltrated poorly
If you're going to attempt black propaganda, you have to be at least a little subtle about it.

3. I don't think he was an infiltrator. I think he was sincere.
And he expected to find kindred spirits there who would accept him.

17. Maybe so, but I don't believe it makes any difference
Either way he failed.

4. Teabaggers don't want openly racist people--that's the only reason
the Neo-Nazi was asked to leave.

7. Agreed
Just like the GOP motherparty, in public only secret racists are accepted. But behind closed doors, these guys all put on their white sheets and pointy hats.

10. Almost correct. They don't want OPENLY racist people NOW
Earlier on, this guy would probably be joining this guy for a beer. These guys are a part of the Tea Party and what it represents. They have been from the very beginning. Until they got this reputation as being racists, they were full of people just like him. Only now, with people openly realizing what they really are, are they very concious of the racist element of their party and how it reveals what they really stand for. If they took actions like this before, they would not have this reputation.

15. Teabaggers don't want openly racist people
Just people who equate Obama with a witch doctor with a bone in his nose. Nothing too openly racist.

But the Neo-Nazi might confuse the Obama -as -Hitler sign carriers.

11. I get a little tired of this "6 million Jews" business-
There were an additional 4-6 million non-Jewish victims of the Holocaust who frequently go un-acknowledged. And had the Nazis won the war, the Holocaust wouldn't have ended when the last Jew was gassed.

I prefer to say that 10 million PEOPLE died in the Holocaust even though it requires an explanation which "6 million Jews" doesn't.

26. +1. It wasn't just about race/religion
The killing of 4-6 million mentally challenged, physically disabled, dissenters, communists, homosexuals, etc. is definitely also worth mentioning.

14. TOP SECRET: New Rule for TeaBaggers
I happned to stumble upon the newest copy of the TeaBaggers handbook and if you look in their handbook, they recently updated it by adding the following paragraph. I will share it with the rest of you below:

"Since the media is onto us for our true beliefs, please be a little bit smarter about your wardrobe. If you are going to wear anything with a Swastika on it, please turn it inside out during the rallys. If you are wearing your KKK hoods and sheets, please put a t-shirt on and a hat. Keep all shirts and signs with the word Nigger on them at home in your trailer.

Please understand that this does not make you any less of a True American, it is just a temporary measure that we need to take until November when we reclaim our birthright to run the country."


P.S.

So was the guy on camera sincere about Nazis not being welcome or just doing PR CYA? I say he was not truly sincere because he would be perfectly happy if the guy stayed and either took the shirt off or turned it inside out. If he really cared, he would be just as outraged if the guy was there even with the shirt turned inside out.

23. The Teabaggers are Johnnies-come-lately to American Values
It wasn't that long ago that they were calling Mr. Lewis a (rhymes with trigger) and Mr. Frank something used when building a fire. Their response to this incident was similar to the response of many neo-Nazis to the Holocaust: to claim it didn't happen. These are the people who portray the President as an African witch doctor with a bone in his nose. These are the people who came to prominence employing Brown Shirt tactics at Town Hall meetings across America last August. These are the people who turn to a Goebbels-like propaganda outlet, FoxNews, for a fest of hate, lies and half-truths in lieu of information.

Teabaggers are right wing thugs who, like many right wing thugs over the last half century, have misappropriated the word conservative for themselves in order to masquerade as a legitimate part of political discourse. Telling one more overt right wing thug to turn his offensive shirt inside out or to leave doesn't change that.

29. I think it was a PR stunt
the teabaggers want to clean up their racist image. I like the idea they were going to pray for him. The didn't do that either. I think it was all a hoax. Teabaggers are overt racist a$$holes.

30. THey came prepared with "infiltrator" signs?
I have seen them before but I didn't realize it was that widespread

Paranoia usually comes later once they have actually achieved power
