Rep Andre Carson stated that the Tea Party wants to see blacks hanging from trees.?
Is this rhetoric over the top? Should he be held accountable for this statement?

In the few TEA Party events I have gone and the few shown on TV I have never heard one TEA partier say anything of that nature. I have seen a few less than faltering signs that some/many would call racists, but not anywhere near the number of nasty and derogatory as carried by liberals relating to Bush.
It is a sad day when an grown man has to make stuff (aka lie) to promote his agenda, sadder still this jackass will probably get reelected till the day he dies.
Oh and here is the link for all of those that are going to say he did not say it.

He is the same guy who accused the Tea Party of shouting the "N" word at him at a PUBLIC rally but could not come up with any proof. In other words...no he will not be held accountable because he's gotten away with making racists claims against the Tea Party before.

Yes,,,if that is actually what the tea party wanted why has it not begun.
Sounds like campaign rhetoric straight from the White House to me.

plenty for paying interest to Obama's communique on dialling down the rhetoric. possibly the Democratic celebration is in a management disaster and not paying heed to the president.

He has a history of false accusations,and rhetoric that could only come from an unstable mind.Clearly,he is mentally unbalanced,perhaps what he really needs is psychiatric intervention.

Of course he should. What liberal ever is, though? If some conservative had made such an inflammatory statement, they'd be excoriated in front page media for weeks. Remember the "Muchaca" incident?

What's that lord something guy talking about. i looked at a random sample of those sign.
didn't see even one that was remotely racist. i guess racism is in the mind of the beholder.

It's called freedom of speech. I don't agree with him, but he has the right to say it. At least now more people know he is a nincompoop.

He ought to watch this whole video and see what Liberals want to do to a black man.
Disgusting !
