1. I've been searching and haven't found a thing.
But I am glad to see the teabaggers racism getting some press.

5. Yes, an AP story was posted on the home page at DU

That's not much coverage considering how the racist Tea Party is promoted by the corporate media.

It seems being liberal, or simply not being a right wing nut, is cause enough to ignore any protests or rallies. Even our President denigrates liberals with scolds and complaints.

Liberals are the new whipping boy and scapegoat for corporate media and politicians. If the media and politicians talked about Jewish people they way they talk about liberals, you'd think we were living in Nazi Germany.

8. Not much
I've been looking too but the damn tes baggers and their bigotry rule the day. I guess the fact that people are still dying over a nonsensical war is "old news" now.
