If a "Tea Party" representative had said that the Congressional Progressive Caucus can go to hell, would that be regarded as racism?

Asked by josie (30934points) August 23rd, 2011

Maxine Waters, D-California 35, recently said that ‘The tea party can go straight to hell’

Generally, the press has been patronizing to Ms. Waters, as if to say “She is so crazy, what do you expect her to say?” And her constituency clearly tolerates this condescending patronization.

What if someone who represents the focus of her animosity said that the CPC, of which she is a member, can go to hell?
What would she say?
What would the press say?
