Quote of the Day

“When the Tea Party burst out on the scene in 2010, the co-opted techniques used by the left to show that they were The People. Popular revolt, demonstrations, rallies, all of it— all of it from the left’s playbook.

This wouldn’t do for the media for many reasons. They immediately attempted to claim the Tea Party was astroturf, artificial. Of course it must be! After all, the media is on The Side of the People, and if we have 30,000 people demonstrating here against the media’s agenda, why, that would mean the media is not on the Side of the People, and that can’t be! So this must be a corporate astroturf campaign paid for by the Koch brothers.

The media continues to despise the Tea Party for putting a lie to the media’s claim that they’re Just on the Side of the People. And they doubly hate the Tea Party because the media are among the people to whom that lie has been exposed.”

Keep in mind that  the left’s lies about the Tea Party being “racist” are just that, lies.

The Tea Party is a cross section of America.

Setting the way back machine to 2008 for this quote from the recently elected US Senator Barack Hussein Obama:

“No one should get a free pass to violate the basic civil liberties of the American people – not the President of the United States, and not the telecommunications companies that fell in line with his warrantless surveillance program.  We have to make clear the lines that cannot be crossed.”

Ya, he was lying when he said that.  That is pretty consistent with just about everything else he has said.
