Tea Party racism covered up

While the wingnutosphere and the pop-up media hype the series of Tea Party meltdowns in Cincinnati and elsewhere, they fail to tell us that it's actually a Ku Klux Klan rally.

I've been accused of focusing too much on ridiculing these public temper tantrums, but because the Tea Parties embody everything that's wrong with conservatives today, it's only fair to expose them. And now it's been revealed that the events are even more vile than it appeared from across 5th Street.

During the March rally in Cincinnati - which was rife with right-wing sentiment of privilege and entitlement - there was an ugly incident that was ignored by the dinosaur press. A woman who dissented from the fascist crowd was attacked with racially charged chants by the BTPers. Other attacks on the woman were certainly classist (even more so than some of the signs I photographed).

The Cincinnati Enquirer failed to mention the bigotry by the crowd, even though it mentioned that chants were made.

The LOSEianne crew plans to march from Fountain Square to City Hall this Wednesday. This event is sponsored by WKRC radio. Despite the station's sponsorship of the rally and the Enquirer's cover-up of bigotry, participants still cry that the media is against them.

If I check up on Wednesday's event in person, I may want to bring a bedpan.
