Even many non-religious Liberals doubt Obama's Christianity, although they tend to favour the belief that he is non-religious.
John McCain's birthplace was questioned by lots of people, but he immediately provided adequate documentation to conclusively demonstrate that he was born on a military base which is considered American soil. George W. Bush had his education and military track record questioned constantly, Sarah Palin had the maternity of her children questioned, and most politicians who achieve any level of success are constantly pressed with ad-hominem attacks.
Now, aside from being supposedly "racist" what do you actually know about the values and beliefs of the Tea Party movement? Have you watched any of the unedited videos from their rallies or read the blog posts and articles of their members?
Attacking the Tea-Party as "Racist" falls along one of the more common lines of political defence because, in modern times, middle-class white people will do everything in their power to not appear to be a racist and if you can convince them that a group, movement or individual is racist they will actually avoid seaking out information about them. I expect that it has worked amazingly well with you, and you realistically have never learned anything about the Tea Party that has not been spoon-fed to you by someone who is opposed to them.
