Totalitarian progressives are quick to label the entire Tea Party as racist which is nothing different than all of the standard, definitively bigoted efforts to hold entire demographic groups of people responsible for the aberrational acts of a small percentage of individual members.  Far-Left, American Progressives race to defend the ground zero mosque because just a few Muslims killed 3,000 people on 9-11 making the mosque a freedom of religion issue, not a sensitivity issue, and in the same breath progressives claim the entire Tea Party is racist.

Progressive hypocrites.

CNN's Don Lemon Transcript -

CNN.com - Breaking News,U.S., World,Weather, Entertainment & Video News Don Lemon

Lemon:  Don't you think it's a bit different considering what happened on 9/11?  And the people have said there's a need for it in Lower Manhattan, so that's why it's being built there.   What about 10, 20 blocks . . . Midtown Manhattan, considering the circumstances behind this?  That's not understandable?

Patel:  In America, we don't tell people based on their race or religion or ethnicity that they are free in this place, but not in that place --

Lemon:  [interrupting] I understand that, but there's always context, Mr. Patel . . . this is an extraordinary circumstance. You understand that this is very heated.  Many people lost their loved ones on 9/11

Patel: Including Muslim Americans who lost their loved ones. . .  .

Lemon:  Consider the context here.  That's what I'm talking about. 

Patel:  I have to tell you that this seems a little like telling black people 50 years ago:  you can sit anywhere on the bus you like - just not in the front.

Lemon:  I think that's apples and oranges- I don't think that black people were behind a Terrorist plot to kill people and drive planes into a building.  That's a completely different circumstance.

Patel:  And American Muslims were not behind the terrorist plot either.
