So much for "toning down the rhetoric"

I was thinking more about the word "some"

There's a pretty big difference between "Tea party merabers want to string up blacks!" and "Some of those tea party people want to string up people like us!"

Not to say I agree with either statement. Just thought the difference between the headline and quote was somewhat
 
You mean southern conservatives ..... the same voting bloc who flocked to the Republican party wholesale after the Democrats' support of the Civil Rights Act?
 
The latter isn't even fair, at least no more fair than saying "some of Obama's voters are Communists!" (I was going to say 9/11 truthers, but that claim is actually more fair than accusing "some" Tea Partiers of wanting to string up blacks.)

But actually what he said was that "some" of the Tea-Party-labeled merabers of Congress want to see black people strung up. In which case I would like to know which particular merabers of Congress he thinks are harboring such desires.
 
Well, like I said, I wasn't trying to defend the idea. I was just loling at the difference between the exact quote and the headline for the article.

I mean, it's nothing new of course.
 
Yea, that hate and vitrol from the left just came out of nowhere! I thought after Gabby GifforRAB that we were all in a kinder, gentler era of politics!
