no imagination needed

... to guess how a non-white version of a certain much-hyped vocal national "grass-roots" movement would go over with the mainstream media:

what if the tea party was black? holding guns like the black panther party was back? if al was rush limbaugh and jesse was sean hannity and tavis was glenn beck would they harm they families? if sarah palin was suddenly sistah souljah would they leave it with the votes or go and get the soldiers? y'all know if the tea party was black the government would have been had the army attack! what if michael baisden was on ya FM dial for 3 hours every day calling the president foul? would they say free speech or find evidence how to charge him with treason like see he's unamerican now? what if minister farrakhan prayed for the death of the commander in chief that he be laid to rest? would they treat it as the gravest threat or never make an arrest even today he's still hated for less? what if president obama would have lost the election? quit his job so he could go talk to the left and bash the government for being off of direction fraught with deception? and told black people they want all of our weapons and we want our own country and called for secession? would he be arrested and tossed in corrections for trying to foster aggression against the people's lawful selection? our question's ... what if the tea party was black? holding guns like the black panther party was back? if al was rush limbaugh and jesse was sean hannity and tavis was glenn beck would they harm they families? if sarah palin was suddenly sistah souljah would they leave it with the votes or go and get the soldiers? y'all know if the tea party was black the government would have been had the army attack! what if black people went on facebook and made a page that for the death of the president-elect we prayed? would the creators be tazed and thrown in a cage? we know the page wouldn't have been displayed all these days! what if jeremiah wright said that everybody white wasn't a real america would you feel scared of him? if he had a militia with pictures that depict the president as hitler they would kill and bury that wait ... what if cynthia mckinney lamented the winning of the new president and hinted he wasn't really a true resident with no proof or evidence? would the media treat it like a huge press event? they would have attacked whatever group she represents! they would have called her a kook on precedent and any network that gave her due preference would be the laughing stock of the news so our question is ... what if the tea party was black? holding guns like the black panther party was back? if al was rush limbaugh and jesse was sean hannity and tavis was glenn beck would they harm they families? if sarah palin was suddenly sistah souljah would they leave it with the votes or go and get the soldiers? y'all know if the tea party was black the government would have been had the army attack!
