Slog tipper Alexander says: "Seriously, you haven't commented on Sacramento's newest racist and his incredibly racist rant on his blog about the NAACP and the Tea Baggers?"

I admit it, Alexander. I have not said anything about this. When you have a prominent Tea Party guy who says "Racists have their own movement. It's called the NAACP," and then suggests that the NAACP makes "more money off of race than any slave trader ever," that's kind of not news. That's basically everyday life. Fact: Teabaggers are racist. So I saw the words "racist" and "teabagger" in the headlines and I assumed it was the same old story.

But when that same teabagger writes (and subsequently takes down) a post written from the point of view of a fictional NAACP President writing Abraham Lincoln demanding that he take back the emancipation of African-Americans:

Perhaps the most racist point of all in the tea parties is their demand that government "stop raising our taxes." That is outrageous! How will we Colored People ever get a wide screen TV in every room if non-coloreds get to keep what they earn? Totally racist! The tea party expects coloreds to be productive members of society?

Mr. Lincoln, you were the greatest racist ever. We had a great gig. Three squares, room and board, all our decisions made by the massa in the house. Please repeal the 13th and 14th Amendments and let us get back to where we belong.

Well, that's a new Tea Party low. You're right, Alexander, and thank you. This should've been on Slog a few days ago. I apologize. I will never again underestimate the capacity of the Tea Party to fuck up worse than they've ever fucked up before.
