I have been giving more and more of my recent thoughts to how far the Extreme Right of the Tea Party have embedded themselves into our Local and National Government under the pretence of being members of the Republican Party. Well I thought that I would pass on this bit of evidence to my readers with the hopes it would be passed on to other more critical thinking blogs.
While the Arizona Immigration Reform Act may not appear to be a racist agenda on the surface, the Tea Party has supported it and the Arizona Bill was written by a Tea Part member who also has (SURPRISE, SURPRISE) direct ties to the group called, "Stormfront" and White Supremacists:
I TOO AM SHOCKED!! (:-0}
Yes, Arizona State Senator Russell Pearce, who submitted the bill, has, for many years, been associated with local Neo-Nazi and White Supremacist groups.
Now please note how he is dressed trying to proclaim a statement that he is a "Good American Values" patriotic person by wearing a shirt like the American flag…..I bet he also has an American flag pin on his lapel when he is wearing a dress suit just to make it complete.
I have always found that when someone thinks they need to blatantly proclaim their “Good American Values”…..Freudianly speaking….they really don’t have “Good American Values.” They are over compensating and hiding the exact opposite....Just as Shakespeare wrote, "Me thinks thou protests too much."
In 2006, he came out speaking enthusiastically about the 1950’s deportation act “Operation Wetback” and for sending email to his supporters reminiscing the greatness of this program. In this email he included an attachment from a white supremacy group and made the conspiratorial claim that journalists pushed the view of: “a world in which every voice proclaims the equality of the races, the inerrant nature of the Jewish ‘Holocaust’ tale, the wickedness of attempting to halt the flood of non-White aliens pouring across our borders…”-http://news.jornal.us/article-5005.NeoNaziAZ-GOP-co...
In 2007, Pierce was photographed with J.T. Ready spokesman for the National Socialist Movement, better known as the Nazi Party. They refer to themselves, “the premier white civil right organization in the world.” The group claims to be true patriots claiming that they are only against non-white immigration. J.T. Ready has said that closing the borders is crucial to preserving the white race. “Let’s face it,” he said. “We’re not being invaded by Swedish nuns here. We’re on a border with a country that is a hostile country.” Pierce is also known for speaking at Neo-Nazi rallies and conferences.”
In 2008, Pierce sponsored Senate Bill 1108, which would make it impossible for students at Universities to join groups based in whole or part because of their ethnicity, claiming it would indoctrinate people with anti-American mentality. As if the relationship could not be any clearer, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer yesterday signed a bill targeting a school district’s ethnic studies program, Arizona law now prohibits classes that promote ethnic solidarity, that are created primarily for students of a particular race or that promote resentment toward a certain ethnic group.”
So to all of the Tea Party "Wing Nut" Members…..You Should Be So Proud!! In truth, instead of supporting "Good American Values," you are destroying them!!
Say, Mr. Engineer, did you know that Arizona has written into their shiny racist laws a ban on karma?
ReplyDeleteThat's like banning gravity and the payback is a bitch!
Hey Microdot,
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!!
No, I did not know that Arizona had written a ban on karma….but if anyone thought they could, it would be Arizona…or maybe Texas too!

ReplyDeleteAm I shocked? Hardly. Inside of the Tea Party are many racists both overt and subtle. And, why wouldn't there be? After all, their agenda nearly shouts exclusivity! I can't imagine looking through the world through the wrong end of the telescope like these people do. The world must be a frightening place when one focusses on narrow agendas.
On a related note:
ReplyDeleteOn facebook last month I commented on a "friend's" wall that tea party members are typically more racist and homophobic than non-teabaggers. when challenged I provided two (2) seperate surveys one by the NAACP and another by a University in the north west which confirmed my premise.
As a result i was told that both those surveys are notoriously "fixed"; I was called a socialist; summarily defriended; and the person posted a one star review on my book, actually a personal attack which amazon removed(she had posted a five star review last year but seems to have forgotten she liked it).
Something is wrong with these people that goes beyond traditional idiocy. I hope it's not contageous.

ReplyDeleteOne can't cure either racism or idiocy, but at least it is non-communicable.

ReplyDeletemudrake, only if you get your anti idiocy vaccination first...
think of rabies...
Your very last statement says it all, Engineer of Knowledge. Good job!
ReplyDeletePresident Calderon from Mexico was absolutely right on his opposition to our immigration law. I think if we stopped letting people like Russell Pearce write our immigration laws, and maybe adopt an immigration law identical to that of Mexico, we would be a better country.
