[Trigger warning for racism.]
"He needs to get out of politics and make room for an American."—Tea Partier Darrel Clark of Farmington, New Mexico, protesting outside an appearance by Democratic US Representative Ben Ray Luján, who was "born in Santa Fe, has lived in the US all his life, and is the son of a public school administrator and the speaker of New Mexico's state House of Representatives."
Clark later clarified that he meant an "American patriot."
Mm-hmm.
Why people continue to think that the Tea Party is comprised of ignorant racist scuzzballs is the greatest mystery of our generation, I'm sure.
