Charlie Rangel: Tea Party Is ‘Same Group’ Of ‘White Crackers’ Who Fought
More permissible racial slurs used toward white people. Of course this is a racial slur, but no one is listening.

In an interview with the Daily Beast
published Friday, Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-NY) suggested Tea Partiers are
the "same group" who fought for segregation during the Civil Rights
movement.

“It is the same group we faced in the South with those white crackers
and the dogs and the police. They didn’t care about how they looked,"
Rangel said.
Because of this, Rangel said the Tea Party could be defeated using the same tactics employed against Jim Crow.
"It was just fierce indifference to human life that caused America to
say enough is enough. ‘I don’t want to see it and I am not a part of
it.’ What the hell! If you have to bomb little kids and send dogs out
against human beings, give me a break,” said Rangel.
