Daily Gut: A Country Full of Racists

So a new Gallup poll profiled Tea Party supporters, and found that they were all racists.

I mean, by the MSNBC definition – they would be racist. After all, 79 percent of those polled were white.

That’s a lot of white people, and Chris Matthews must reckon, a lot of hoods.

But is it a lot when you compare it to the general population? The gen. pop. is 75 percent white, which is only 4 percent less than the tea people. The poll measured other variables – from education to employment, and there was little difference between the TP’s and the rest of America. Even with the obvious lack of liberals – the TP’s represent the “public at large.” Essentially these people manage the hardware store and watch your house when you’re on vacation. They probably hate rap music AND Gossip Girl.

Now, you think the fact that tea-partiers reflect America will stop Matthews, Janeane Garofalo or Keith Olbermann from calling teapartiers violent racists? Of course not – because the left actually feels the same exact way about America that they do about tea-partiers.

If you’ve ever been stuck in a cocktail party in Manhattan, a pool party in Brentwood, or a comedy club in San Francisco – the concept of tea partiers being racist has existed for decades. They just weren’t called tea partiers, yet. Calling the tea parties racist knuckleheads is code for calling mainstream America racist knuckleheads.

The Gallup Poll just made it painfully clear: the only difference between the tea partiers and America is that the tea partiers went outside. And that’s what scares the Harry Smiths of the world. They loved it when these folks stayed in Walmart, where they belong.

And if you disagree with me, you’re a racist homophobe who doesn’t reuse shopping bags.

Tonight we have the hilarious Amy Schumer, the thoughtful clever Joe DeVito, the marvelous Congressman McCotter, and singer/musician Mike Estes, will unveil his new soundtrack to Red Eye!
