The Coffee Party - the new Obama Astroturf  

Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid call these Coffee partiers un-American. Oh of course not because these coffeer are their supporters. I wonder if MSNBC will come up with some sexual derogatory commit about these people, probably not. Is this not sad, the Dem have all the power and still they need to create some group to help them out.

It does not surprise me. The Tea Party movement has really gained a lot of speed in the last year and are a force to be reckoned with. The Dems are trying to find a way to stop it and their influence. So fight a "grassroots" group with what? Another grassroots group. Only theirs is not really grassroots...but started and orchastrated by politicans to help them push their agenda. Which means politicans telling the "members" what to do so that it helps them push threw their ideas. They are just puppets and being used. Wonder how many sheeple will sign up and do what they say?

Hi Rollo...

Alot about Mr. Obama comes from out of nowhere, ever notice that?

I'm sure this 'grassroots' movement is just a ploy to get the spotlight, which all the liberal media will be happy to oblige.

Word limit?

Granted, I don't write for such an esteemed publication as the New York Times, but I still know what articles are for! The idea is to deliver pertinent information in a convenient little package that readers read and subsequently learn from.

Okay, we gotta forget about fair and impartial. We know news doesn't need opinion. And we also know that's out of the window these days, and that's why they're all dying.

But to hide behind something like a word limit is just hysterical!

If I turned in a piece with a limit of, say, 1000 words and didn't include VITAL information about the subject, it would immediately be back in my inbox, highlighted in red, with a BIG NOTE: "Cut back on the prose and make room for facts. Thank you."

The blatant fixing of NEWS is something that drives me crazy. And as I've stated many times on here, and have taken my licks for, the left is far worse than the right in terms of fixing news. A right-leaning publication would never be able to get away with this without at least a follow-up if not a complete rewrite.

But all of this is pointless. As De Niro so eloquently put it, "It is what it is."

The real issue to me is, why hide it!? If the Tea Party movement is supposedly that disgusting astroturf funded by bigoted conservative coffers and vile industries like health insurance companies, then why not let them stand alone on the platform some feel to be so false? This way, the left looks justified, the Tea Party is exposed nationwide and goges away, and there's some instant credibility lent to the left.

Instead, the left, as usual, follows up and does EXACTLY what they accuse the right of.

Viewing the entire situation in context, the only logical conclusion I'm able to draw is, try as they might, the left, Obama-loving crowd cannot prove the Tea Party invalid, so they seek to destroy it in usual hypocritical fashion.

Score another one for the Tea Party movement. And the ironic part: the TP'ers didn't even have to do anything!

Way to go, lefties. You can't get out of your own way long enough to show you have good sense.
