The Tea Party inches ever closer to losing the facade that they are not a bunch of racists with this remarkable comment from their spokesman, Mark Williams, in which he says, "Racists have their own movement. It's called the NAACP." He made the comments on CNN in a debate with Roland Martin.

Williams goes on to call the NAACP: "a bunch of old fossils looking to make a buck off skin color."

I don't detect any racism in that at all. I think it's perfectly normal to see an organization like the NAACP as an opportunistic group. They're just hanging around making money off of American's racism. Or not.

The only other thing the Tea Party could do to make themselves more blatantly racists would be to begin wearing robes and calling their leaders "Imperial Wizard."
