Mark Williams, talk radio host and chairman of one of the largest tea party groups, Tea Party Express, was previously featured at LGF when he went on CNN and called Barack Obama an “Indonesian Muslim turned welfare thug.”

That was right after he said that there were no racists at the tea party protests. Which is a perfect illustration of the blinding cognitive dissonance that drives the racist mentality; they’ll deny their racism in one sentence, then spout hate speech in the next.

Mark Williams is at it again, with some stunningly bigoted statements about Muslims at his blog: Tea Party Leader: Allah Is ‘Monkey God’.

This kind of talk is everywhere on the right wing blogs, of course, but what makes this case a bit different is that Williams is a leader of the tea party movement.

But remember, there are no racists or bigots or extremists at the tea parties. Just patriots a-skeered of losin’ their liberty.
