This new Tea Party controlled Republican Party does not want to attract any “ethnic” people to its membership. They do not want black people to join. They do not want Hispanics to join. They do not want people who aren’t Christian, and they especially do not want Muslims. They do not want women who don’t know how to be “demure” and “feminine”, and they do not want new gay Republicans. To the contrary, they have done everything but put a plank in the party platform pledging to reinstate sodomy laws, trying to make the Log Cabin Republicans feel disrespected enough to go away and play with their own kind. Or better yet, to go visit Russia. That said, nothing pisses off a Tea Party member more than being called a bigot. I understand the argument. To a true Tea Partier, someone’s skin color or social status is not the deciding factor of their “acceptability”. They like, and genuinely admire, refined, classical piano playing, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who believed in “American exceptionalism”, a philosophy Tea Partiers believe means, “Do what we want, or we will drone your ass.” They adore Justice Clarence Thomas, who thinks affirmative action is an insult to blacks. And they practically had public orgasms when former congressman Allen West called out the NAACP, President Obama, and told liberals to “Get the hell out of the United States.”
