My daily dose of crazed left wing lunacy. Or, Obama gets TEAbagged.

I have taken to listening to Imus in the Morning on my short trip to work. I never listened to him very much before his comment that enraged Sharpton et. al. but since his return to the airwaves I have started listening. While his comments that led to his trouble were in poor taste they do not even come close to Cooper Anderson's "it's hard to talk when you're tea bagging" comment.



On Imus on Tuesday I heard Paul Begalia ramping up the left's attack on the TEA parties. Like Cooper Anderson, he was making the TEA party phenomenon out to be a Republican organized and run affair. He belittled the movement and denigrated it. Making it out to be a joke. He wished everyone a happy Patriot's day. Saying that paying taxes was patriotic and he was proud to pay them, as should any patriotic American. Using a typical disingenuous strawman argument that anyone who complains about paying taxes to support a bloated, thieving government does not want to pay their fair share.

Then this morning Matt Taibi from Rolling Stone was going on about it being a media created event. Proving, for those who didn't realize it, but Matt Taibi is another faux-intellectual leftard. The media tried to bury the TEA parties. And while talk radio publicized the events, they didn't organize them. The beauty of these events were they were organized locally without a George Soros type funding them through Media Matters or other of his dozen or so front groups.

Which brings us to Countdown. If you can stifle your gag reflex long enough to suffer through this DNC owned propaganda piece listen to them try to "deconstruct" the TEA party movement. First they continually call it a Republican effort, trying to brainwash people into believing it so. Then they coin the phrase "astroturf movement" trying to say it is artificial and not from the bottom up.





The TEA parties were real grassroots protests. This should frighten the heck out of the left. The left only sees "grassroots" protests that are well funded by political front groups. Most recently the protesters that were in front of the houses of AIG employees who received legal compensation for simply doing their legal jobs. These people were organized by ACORN. Fed by ACORN. Had a bus rented for them by ACORN. And yet the media gave these people hours of TV time because the outrage over the AIG bonuses was not a widely held public opinion, it was an opinion rammed down the public's throat by the White house, and DNC operatives in congress.

The hundreds of TEA parties throughout the country were attended by over one million people. And while one cannot determine how many would have attended without FoxNews shows and talk radio hawking the events, the fact that so many popped up around the country organized by we, the people, not some Soros or DNC front group is of some note.
And I believe that Obama and the DNC know this, because all of their organized efforts of suppressing the movement cannot take away from the fact that they did occur.

Why did the infamous media whore Cindy Sheehan get more coverage protesting in front of George Bush's Crawford TX house, an endeavour orchestrated and paid for by agenda-driven elitists than Americans around the country demanding that their representatives listen to them, the people?

And why are people not outraged that CNN and MSNBC allow their smarmy hosts to use crass, sexually explicit terms on air? I find the phrase "nappy-headed hos" equally offensive and in equally poor taste. But I expect no less from hypocritical leftards.
