I'm sick of the media giving Tea(KKK)Party MAJOR news coverage

[bigdarryl]

Lets be perfectly honest here do people really think this so-called movement would exist if Obama wasn't an African American President.All this bullshit they supposed to be mad about deficit and Government spending is a front.The last three Rethug Presidents before Obama had deficit spending except Clinton who had a surplus and where were these people than.I would give the tea(KKK)Party more credibility if they were more diverse in that they had African Americans and Hispanics in this so-called movement.But what I see is there all white with some calling Obama HITLER.Even C-SPAN Sunday morning was mostly about Tea Party these people are being funded by the rethug party thats my two cents on this

2. I am so glad that someone else

sees that the tea bags are just an updated bunch of the KKK. They aren't killing anybody YET, but the urge people to GO AFTER Obama and Democrats. Which I think makes their message clear.

Any other time these people would be run out of the country.

5. it is the same public saturation as the constant run up

to Iraq War i, to the trashing of Al Gore, to the run Iraq war 2 (public trashing of Hans Blix etc), the exaggeration of successes in Afghanistan, The anti-France and Dixie chicks campaigns. The swift boating of Kerry, The Jerimiah Wright story, The 24/7 foisting of Sarah Palin on the public. It is the August of 2009 with the Nazi-like trashing of town hall forums. It is a public relations blending of the Militia movement hip (Lots of Ron Paul acolytes in this group), racists, the religious right, the unseen hand of big business in an orchestrated phenomenon. or good measure they have elements that pretend to be far left purists. It doesnt matter what masks they wear. In the end they have an insatiable appetite for power and money and will kill if needed.

The sum force of the elements of the right are not to be trifled with. They run the media.

They have done it before. It is what they do.
They did it to Carter. They tried to do it to Clinton.

Did I leave anyone out?

8. I Can't Count How Many Times I Had to Find the Remote

to turn off Sarah Palin -

Avoiding her nasty rant has been challenging - but I did it.

9. The racism gambit might become a new corollary to Godwin's Law. Overdo it and it becomes a tacit

admission of having no other argument.

11. In a word, YES. It's utter bullshit.

Millions of people protesting the Iraq War isn't a story, but these few thousand racist jerks are on the news constantly. WTF?
