    The KKK distances itself from Westboro and the Tea Party

    The KKK came out with the announcement that they don't support the Westboro Baptist Church and the Tea Party.

    It is a sad state when we judge the merit of the Tea Party based on the actions of the KKK, who themselves have the political capital of the Save the Population Born on a Tuesday Society. As for the Westboro Baptist Church, anyone actually on the side of these religious nuts?

    I think you have it backward, the T Party don't want the KKK around because they are nuts. I mean who would ever want the KKK to endorse them. I don't think anybody is running to the KKK asking for their endorsement to run for anything.

    Where did the KKK say that they think the Tea Party is nuts? Its kind of amusing to see people opposed to the Tea Party say that the KKK NOT endorsing them is bad. Good example of Irony?

    Well, from the statement quoted, they've distanced themselves just as much from the Democrats and Republicans as they have the Tea Party.....

    Yeah, the TEA Party people are nutjobs. Sane people generally have no objection to paying more and more in taxes to underfund a government that spends 40% more annually than it takes in. A lot of these sane people are ultra rich hollywood liberals that use their fame pulpit to criticize anything non liberal. They should set a proper example and voluntarily contribute at , say, a 75% income tax rate to show their patriotism and good will for the have nots. Why wait for government mandates to redistribute wealth? F'n go for it...........all of you anti TEA people.........don't tell us, SHOW us.
    Yep, an "I'm TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY" attitude is a tell tale sign of a warped mind, fo sho.
    Take a good hard look, it's coming.

    In the 1920's the KKK would routinely endorse candidates it was against, even at the height of their power they knew they were extremely unpopular.

    And no, I am not saying this condemnation is actually an endorsement. The KKK is simply nuts, like the Westboro people. Nothing more than a more functional version of the guy on the street corner arguing with invisible opponents. Whatever they do is irrelevant, as it is literally insane.

    Consider two things Obama did immediately after taking office.

    1. Stop the Mexico City Policy, a Republican program to protect mostly brown and black children in foreign countries from abortion. By overturning this policy, Obama insured that the black and brown population would be supressed by killing them in the womb.

    2. He tried to stop funding for poor children scholarships in D.C. Opportunity Scholarships were another Republican program designed to let poor children escape the DC school system, schools that are not good enough for B. Hussein's kids. Fortunately for the poor of DC, Republicans restored funding recently.

    Denying poor brown and black children education or denying them life. It's a program no self-respecting white racist wouldn't cling to.
    I don't know what the term is in Austrian.

    Believe me--the Tea Party in this country would not accept any member of the KKK either--LOL

    Unfortunately, a closeup in Photoshop shows significant blurring around the edges of the text, indication that it΄s done with the brush tool in Photoshop.

    Funny stuff, though.
