NPR Sucks: Tea Party Racism Isn’t Fact?
This is why Liberals suck. They can’t defend a position if they’re life depended on it. So NPR is reeling from 2 fired employees after NPR staff fundraiser Ron Schiller called the Tea Party racist, in a meeting he thought was with a potential donor, but was actually set up by James O’Keefe, who is a part of the group that did the video set up that took down ACORN. Subsequent to Schiller’s firing, CEO Vivian Schiller (no relation) also resigned. Here’s what he actually said, as reported by Huffington Post:
Among other things, Schiller calls the Tea Party “fanatically involved in people’s personal lives and very fundemental[ly] Christian—I wouldn’t even call it Christian…basically, they believe in white, middle America, gun-toting—it’s pretty scary. They’re seriously racist, racist people.”
This was controversial?
From a Tea Party Rally.
Although, religion has played a pivotal point in the building morality of this country, I do not believe that religion should be pin pointed as the reasoning for some of these peoples ignorance. Evangelical is a movement not a religion and many of these individuals stand for equality and justice for all – these individuals are of the minority within the evangelical culture. The woman with the poster above is simply personifying her own ignorance which happens to make herself and the party she represents look bad.
What if they’re all crazies?
Even if that is true, that does not change the fact that NPR is public radio. It is ridiculous that it does not give any voice to the views of such a large portion of the country.
Every group has crazies in it. No need to judge a group by its crazies.
