Well it’s preferable to all the planned government tax based sodomy… taxomy?
As they say, power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely. Despite years of “protest is patriotic” the largest American media outlets have given up any pretense of objectivity and have engaged in an all out assault on anyone who dares disagree with their socialist agenda.
“Teabagging”, look it up on Urban Dictionary if you are unsure of it’s meaning.
So would MSNBC refer to Sam Adams as a “Tea-bagging founding father”?
From grass-roots to “Astroturf”, in attempts to discredit the tea party participants, the movement in general has been characterized as Astroturf, not a grass-roots movement but a product of Fox News and undoubtedly the “vast right wing conspiracy”.
“Anti-government”, so whereas Cindy Sheehan and Code Pink were great patriotic protesters, anyone who opposes the liberal policies of the Obama administration are “anti-government”… well at least is goes along with the Department of Homeland Security’s assessment.
“Anti-CNN”, all I can say about that comment is I’m still ROFLMAO
A woman in Afghanistan protesting gets front page coverage, yet Americans protesting get relegated to page A14 of the New York Times.
The highlight of biased media coverage was the Susan Roesgen “interview” in Chicago of protesters there. Asking a participant why he was there, she kept interrupting him with DNC talking points.
“Do you realize that you are eligible for a $400 tax credit”? What the hell is that? A bribe? Here… shut up…. Take your $400 and go home like a good little lemming. We know what’s best for you after all you silly fool!
“Did you know that the state of Lincoln gets $50 billion out of the stimulus? That’s $50 billion for this state sir.” And precisely where did the $50 billion come from Susan? Did it reign down on his holiness Obama like manna from heaven? No! It came out of the poor man’s pocket, my pocket, your pocket.
Back to the news desk “That is the prime example of what we are following across the country there Susan pointed out everything plain and clear of what she’s dealing with”. Perhaps the good Ms Roesgen would be better suited with a job in Beirut, Kabul, or the West Bank since what with all the crazy radical right-wing terrorists here it’s just so darn dangerous.
Meanwhile the corporate CNN response is: “She was doing her job and called it like she saw it”. Since when was a reporter’s job being a mouthpiece for a political party and spouting platform talking points like she’s running for office?
Given her previous reporting history it’s blatantly obvious that she has a serious problem with anyone comparing President Obama to Adolf Hitler, but that comparisons of Bush to Hitler, well they were just okay!

Anderson Cooper observed that it's hard to talk while tea bagging. I wonder how he knows that?
I would imagine Anderson Cooper has done some teabagging, in his days, Silverfiddle. Not that I want to think about it.
I am concerned that politics is one long mess of hypocrisy where participants rationalize whatever power they please.
Thank goodness for checks and balances and a generally liberal culture that is, for the most part, unfriendly to these kinds of intrusions into their lives.
What I can say is that the inconsistencies leave me not taking politics or idealogues very seriously at all, anymore. Lot of busybodies with strong opinions about how to tell everyone else how they could have made them to avoid their mistakes had they just listened to them. Lot of BS, is what it is. I've grown weary trying to take it more seriously than it deserves.
At this point in my life, I finally understand my most people hate politics. And the truth it, politics deserves it.
