[Peace-discuss] DN: NAACP Report Ties Tea Party to Militia and Racist Groups

[Brussel]

Karen,

Ask Carl where he gets his data (re. his first line below). Ask where most of the funding, who are the biggest contributors, and where most of the PR for the Tea party comes from. And so what conclusion may one draw?

Don't be surprised if he switches the subject, refuses to answer, or cannot answer, because he doesn't have reliable sources.
