Remember when I
posted the article that found the Will County Illinois Teaparty renaming itself because too many people associated it with "racist wingnuts"?
Well, there was a conference to address that.
CPAC hosted a conference, sponsored by Teaparty members, to let conservatives address that very question.
No prizes for guessing how the conference went when the Q&A session began.
Scott Terry of North Carolina, accompanied by a Confederate-flag-clad attendee, Matthew Heimbach, rose to say he took offense to the event’s take on slavery.
