Fmr ACORN head calls Tea Parties “bowel movement” and claims “they’re coming
after you”

Former ACORN head Bertha Lewis told a group of the Young Democratic
Socialists on that they should “do everything [they] can” to build their
organization, and then insisted that our times are worse than internment
under the Japanese and the years of Jim Crow laws (h/t Morgan Richmond at
BigGovernment):
Any of these groups that says, “I’m young, I’m Democratic, and I’m a
socialist,” is okay with me. You know that’s no light thing to do — to
actually say, I’m a socialist. You’ve got to know, actually, we are living
in a time that’s going to dwarf the McCarthy era. It is going to dwarf the
internment of World War II. We are right now in a time that is going to
dwarf the era of Jim Crow and segregation.
They are coming. And they are coming after you. And they are going to be
brutal and oppressive. They’ve already shown it. … This is not rhetoric or
hyperbole — this is real. … This tea party so-called movement — a
bowel-movement in my estimation — and this blatant uncovering and ripping
off the mask of racism…
Bertha’s group lost its congressional funding after videos were released
depicting actual ACORN workers offering advice on how to hide income from
prostitution from the government as well as how to lie to get mortgages.
This video demonstrates a contrast to rhetoric about alleged fear-mongering
among Tea Party protesters.
Even more ironic is the explicit Democrat support given to the causes she
lists. Liberal icon Bobby Kennedy played no small part in Joe McCarthy’s
efforts to investigate Communist infiltration in the U.S. government.
Internment of the Japanese came under the original New Deal Democrat
president Franklin Roosevelt. The era of Jim Crow laws was governed by
southern Democrats like Alabama governor George Wallace and Mississippi
senator Jim Eastland.
