Fake Mich. ‘Tea Party’: Another Example of How Democrats Fight Dirty

Posted on May 16, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Every Democrat I know likes to act as if it were the GOP that fights dirty. Of course, every time I ask them for an example they just stare back blankly at me — I know, it’s their normal state, but this question gets particular blankness. On the other hand, I can give reams of […]

Taxed Enough Already: USA Today & Everyone Trumpeting Low Tax Rates

Posted on May 11, 2010 by Melissa Clouthier

Don’t you just love the Democrat loving, not-so-concealed bias of the press? Today, they’re seen priming the pump for tax increases: Federal, state and local taxes – including income, property, sales and other taxes – consumed 9.2% of all personal income in 2009, the lowest rate since 1950, the Bureau of Economic Analysis reports. That […]

Keith Olbermann And The Origins Of The Tea Bagger Moniker

Posted on May 7, 2010May 7, 2010 by Melissa Clouthier

Yesterday, Keith Olbermann called me out for my post shaming President Obama for using the derogatory term “tea bagger”. Here’s the video [thanks Tab Hale, for the help]: As usual, Keith is wrong. First, when the Tea Party folks used the term “tea bag”–as in, let’s send tea bags to Congress, they meant literal tea […]

It’s Because They Want To Kill Us, Stupid

Posted on May 6, 2010May 6, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

The night the NYC car bomb attempt went down, I was so grateful that, once again, the diligence of the public and the swift action of the NYC Police thwarted yet another potential attack. Shortly thereafter, while still incredibly grateful obviously, I became angry. I’ve had it. Firstly, because the current strategy of homeland security […]

Tea Party: Instantly Attacked by Old Media, Coffee Party: Immediate Respect from Old Media

Posted on April 28, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Nothing says “media bias” like coffee in the morning. If anyone ever wanted to see an example of the bias of the Old Media no better example can be found than the different ways that it has treated the tea party movement and the coffee party astroturf effort. The tea party movement was initially ignored, […]

Does Obama Want to Destroy America? Yes, But…

Posted on April 26, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Rush Limbaugh and a few other radio hosts have made it a center piece of the attack against President Obama, the Tea Partiers have often put such sentiment on their protest signs, and the conservative chattering classes have been abuzz with the question: does Barack Obama want to destroy the United States? The only real […]

GEICO Drops Obnoxious Moonbat D.C. Douglas

Posted on April 21, 2010 by Dave Blount

Teacher Jason Levin isn’t the only moonbat to let Tea Party Derangement Syndrome threaten his career: Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) April 21, 2010 — Los Angeles actor, D.C. Douglas, says he was dropped from the upcoming GEICO “Shocking News” campaign after a group of Tea Party members harassed him and the insurance giant over a […]

Those Delusional ‘Coffee Party’ Lefties

Posted on April 20, 2010April 20, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

The self-delusional world in which liberals wallow truly is amazing. It takes an Olympic gymnast’s level of agility to warp your logic enough to think like one of them and a recent report on the left-wing blather site Newsvine is yet one more example of the backbreaking contortions that liberals must indulge to make themselves […]

Video: After Saying They’re Angry Mobs, Sen. Boxer Now Wants Her Supporters to be Like Tea Partiers

Posted on April 19, 2010April 19, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Kerry Picket of the Washington Times found two amusing videos of California Senator Barbara Boxer, one in 2009 and one from this month, that shows the sad state of affairs in which Democrats find themselves politically these days. In 2009, Boxer was warning about those dangerous “well dressed” angry mobs that make up the tea […]

Why The Left Must Destroy The Tea Party Movement

Posted on April 19, 2010 by Melissa Clouthier

Reading over the Tea Party coverage this weekend, a strange picture emerged. There was just no possible way to get a cohesive image of the movement because many of the press filters were just so distorted. If one were a stranger from another planet, looking at a mash-up of Tea Party news would be like […]

New York Times Runs Racist Op-Ed Against Tea Party

Posted on April 18, 2010 by Brian Garst

Charles M. Blow, a regular columnist for the New York Times, has taken the already despicable race narrative on the Tea Parties to another level.: He begins with a bit of “diversity” hunting: I had specifically come to this rally because it was supposed to be especially diverse. And, on the stage at least, it […]

Failed Tea Party Infiltrators

Posted on April 16, 2010 by Dave Blount

Patriots were more than ready for the moonbats who attempted to sully yesterday’s historic rallies for liberty. Here’s the reception a clown with Nazi symbols on his shirt got in St. Louis: Special signs were also used to defang moonbats in Oceanside, CA… …in San Francisco… …in Denver… …in Texas… …and in Columbus: Failure comes […]

The April 15, 2010 Myrtle Beach Tea Party (W/ 13 Pics + Video And Text Of My Speech)

Posted on April 16, 2010April 16, 2010 by John Hawkins

Yesterday, I attended the Myrtle Beach Tea Party. It’s the third one I’ve been to and the crowd looked even bigger than before. Although I’m terrible with crowd estimates, I’d say 400-500 people were there over the course of the afternoon. That may not sound like a lot of people, but Myrtle Beach only has […]

Race Baiting at Philly Tea-Party: Anti-Tea Party Democrats No Better than Fred Phelps?

Posted on April 15, 2010April 15, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

On March 6, former George H. W. Bush speechwriter Michael Johns was speaking before a tea party gathering in Philadelphia when someone from the audience took exception to the fact that during his address he did not say “President Obama” but merely called him Mr. Obama. The heckler screamed a racial slur at Mr. Johns […]

Washington Post Ombudsman Misses Point

Posted on April 12, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Today, in his guise as the Washington Post’s ombudsman, Andrew Alexander posted a discussion about the recent misreporting by the Old Media about the various “incidents” that supposedly occurred between the admittedly raucous tea party protesters and members of Congress in Washington, D.C., during the healthcare fight. But while Alexander finally makes some admissions on […]

Illinois Rep. Halvorson: Tea Partiers are ‘Fringe’

Posted on April 5, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Attention citizens of Illinois 11th Congressional District. If you have attended a Tea Party event or are inclined to support them YOU are a “fringe” element according to your Representative, Debbie Halvorson. Halvosron’s office told CBS News Channel 2 in Chicago, “The voters in the 11th District are not easily influenced by the rhetoric of […]

Did you know that the Tea Party Express is rolling?

Posted on April 4, 2010 by Bookworm

Although the Bay Area has a fierce core of conservatives, it is certainly not a bastion of the Tea Party movement. Many of us, like butterflies newly released from a chrysalis, are for the first time delicately flapping the wings of our ideology. We’re not out on the streets in vast numbers, although the success […]

In The Future, Everyone Will Be A Klansman For 15 Minutes

Posted on April 3, 2010April 3, 2010 by Ed Driscoll

In 2008, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) was smeared as a Klansman by his opponent. That didn’t stop Cohen for dusting off the smear this past week — along with namedropping Kristallnacht — against the Tea Partiers.

Coffee Party Mania

Posted on April 2, 2010 by Dave Blount

Patriots really thought we had something with the Tea Party movement, producing crowds like this and this and this: But now the Empire of Moonbats has struck back with the Coffee Party. Here’s one that was so well attended, a DUmmie was too proud not to share pictures with the world. Look at the surging […]

David Letterman Finally Exposes the Truth About Tea Partiers

Posted on April 1, 2010April 1, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

The truth was exposed during his excellent interview with Pam Stout, President of Sandpoint, Idaho Tea Party. This is not an April Fools’ Day joke either. David Letterman had Pam Stout, the Sandpoint, Idaho Tea Party President on his show the other night. The result? A very fair and enlightening interview, showing the real face […]

Those Unhinged ‘Tea Baggers’ Are so Un-American

Posted on March 31, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

I am about sick to my stomach over all the ill-tempered protest signs and the over-the-top rhetoric from all these “tea baggers,” man. It’s a good thing that the left is so patriotic and level-headed. Why THEY would NEVER act like morons, half-wits, and the unhinged. They are logical, dispassionate, intellectual even. Leftists are all […]

Smug NY Times Moonbat Smirks and Gloats

Posted on March 29, 2010March 29, 2010 by Dave Blount

If you aren’t angry enough yet to do whatever you can to dislodge our socialist rulers from power before they totally destroy this country, check out the recent opinion piece in the New York Times by smug moonbat Charles M. Blow, who proclaims that the alleged “bullying, threats, and acts of violence” by patriots opposed […]

A Little Reminder of the Left’s Unhinged Hatred

Posted on March 28, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

With all the tales in the Old Media of the supposed violence committed by Tea Partiers going on since Obama’s takeover of our nation’s healthcare system, I thought it might be instructive to recall how hate-filled the unhinged left is in America today. A year ago, the good folks at Zomblog assembled a great series […]

Some reflections on this weekend. This is NOT over.

Posted on March 24, 2010March 24, 2010 by Tabitha Hale

Let’s face it — this was a rough few days for us. I was on the ground in DC all weekend. I got down there early on Saturday and had the opportunity to speak to the crowd of around 30,000 people, if only briefly. Saturday was beautiful. The weather,: the attitude — people had come on […]

I’ve Had Enough of the “Tea Bagger” Slur, Haven’t You?

Posted on March 20, 2010 by Jimmie Bise

Mark Knoller, the award-winning White House correspondent for CBS News, was in Washington today covering the President’s attempt to rally Democrats to pass his government-run health care plan. In the course of describing the scene, Knoller shucked off his role as objective reporter so he could drop a casual slur on a significant chunk of […]

NPR: ‘Patriots’ Are Dangerous to Our Government

Posted on March 18, 2010March 18, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Public supported National Public Radio (NPR) posted a report on March 17 during its “All Things Considered” radio show that warns its listeners that “patriot groups” are dangerous and are apparently increasingly prone to attacking government officials and facilities. Oddly the two examples it uses to prove its case have no ties whatsoever to any […]

Dick Armey’s Border Moonbattery

Posted on March 18, 2010 by Dave Blount

So long as Tea Partiers remember that the movement is about ideas, not people, it won’t get hijacked by those who might exploit it to advance pernicious concepts. A case in point is Dick Armey, who has played a roll in organizing Tea Parties, but who indulges in pure moonbattery on the topic of border […]

PJTVs Launches New Tea Party TV – Interview With Glenn Reynolds

Posted on March 15, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Pajamas Media is capitalizing on its earlier coverage of the Tea Party movement and has launched Tea Party TV. As the PR release says, “Expanding on its coverage of the National Tea Party Convention last week, PJTV announced its launch of Tea Party TV, offering comprehensive coverage of the Tea Party movement. The cornerstone of […]

Leftist The Nation magazine: When In Doubt, Blame Bush. Again

Posted on March 14, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

It seems that math, cooking and basic home economics aren’t the only things with which Katrina Vanden Heuvel has trouble. I wrote about her inability to function at those household basics yesterday, here. Well, it appears that the reality-challenged Vanden Heuvel, Editor of The Nation magazine, also isn’t a very good, you know, Editor. .. […]

House Republicans Approve Earmark Ban

Posted on March 11, 2010March 11, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

This is a step in the right direction at curbing spending. You have to start somewhere and pork-barrel spending is a good place to start. While the numbers involved aren’t huge, in relation to total spending, at the very least it means that the GOP is listening and starting to take heed. Usually, one isn’t […]
