When you’re a Tea Party activist and you’ve been caught holding a racist sign that refers to taxpayers as the “n” word, maybe it’s better to just leave the whole subject alone.
Dale Robertson seems to disagree. Over the weekend, the Houston-based Tea Party leader posted a picture of himself at a rally last year that you can see opposite.
Notice something strange about the words on that sign Robertson is holding? That’s because it’s a (very poorly) photoshopped image. In the real photo, below, Robertson’s sign bears a very different message:
Robertson took heat for that sign when it was posted recently by the Washington Independent, and the Houston Tea Party group has disassociated itself from him.
Strange that he would risk bringing the subject back up by posting the photo, even in altered form.
