I keep waiting for someone to say this but I haven’t heard it yet, so… you heard it here first: the left is trying to brand tea parties as racists and vitriolic etc. not to hurt their feelings… tea party folks all know they’re not racists and that it’s bunk. But it’s more to scare potential Democrats, Independents, and yes black people, away from joining up, or even listening.

Same tactics used to scare people away from actually hearing the message of Rush, or Fox News, or Glenn, et al. Very important to scare people away from these messages of sanity. Because if your trusted CNN tells you to avoid El Rushbo and FOX, then you’ll stay far away. Hey, Democrats: you’re being played. Funny how the “open minded ones” become completely shut down at the mention of a right wing movement of which they’ve only seen clips from an MSNBC type angle. Just try mentioning El Rushbo or Mark Levin or Glenn Beck to a devoted Democrat to witness the phenomenon.
