The Left's New Target: Conservative Talkers and Tea Parties
Newsbusters ^ | April 5, 2009 | Noel Sheppard

Posted on 04/06/2009 12:46:22 PM PDT by patriotgal1787

"Shortly before Markos Moulitsas blamed Glenn Beck for instigating the senseless shooting of three Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, police officers on Saturday, the proprietor of the far-left website Daily Kos said that conservatives would rather shoot cops than organize to win the next election.

He also wrote during the same Twitter discussion, "With no Veep to shoot people, folks are taking things into their own hands."

Such was revealed Sunday by a self-proclaimed Daily Kos diarist named Tommy Christopher who was so disgusted by these comments he has actually resigned his membership (h/t Hot Air via ConservaThink)".

That was written by Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters, part of the Media Research Center. Noel appeared on Glenn Beck's radio program this morning, and is scheduled -- as of this writing -- to appear on Beck's Fox News TV show this afternoon.

Tonight, Noel will be on with us on The Andrea Shea King Show at 9 p.m. ET to talk about the ultra-Left's new level in liberal attack on Conservative media, the new strategy being employed to incite people to violence.

For some weeks now, we've been quietly talking about it.

We didn't think it wise to bring it up on the show -- or on this blog -- lest we appear to be throwing cold water on the rapidly growing Tea Party rally and protest movement. But today, it bubbled to the surface when Bob Beckel, the Democrat's living embodiment of "porkulus" implied during a Fox News interview that Tea Party participants are probably carrying.

Michelle Malkin and I both were watching and Twittering about it real time, so it was no surprise to see that within moments of the newscast, she had a post up.

"Bob Beckel appeared on Fox News this morning to sneer at the nationwide event. He derided tax revolters in Montana, joking that “It was a good thing it wasn’t a vodka party, because I guarantee you they all had guns.” Bigoted Beltway jerk. Beckel also claimed the Tea Parties were “nothing new” and recycled the debunked Playboy website report (deleted from the site) spreading false and illogical rumors that the grass-roots movement is directed from the GOP, national tax groups, and CNBC."
Our concern is that some Leftard nutjob will infiltrate the thus far civilized and well conducted rallies to create havoc and violence. Of course, you know what follows: media coverage that focuses on the negative. As handmaidens to the Obama Left, they know they have to nip this tidal wave in the bud.

And what better way to quell the disturbance than by creating one. A violent one. One that's guaranteed to get media attention that will help shutdown the nascent citizens' movement and right to peacefully assemble.

We see it coming. We saw it coming when the Orlando Tea party showed a stunningly high turnout with one week's notice, and since, with over 1,000 rallies planned for Tax Day.

The Left, led by the Obamatards, know this is detrimental to their agenda. This cannot stand. And so they'll do whatever it takes to put out the fire of citizens' revolt against our increasingly oppressive government.

Kirstinn Taylor of Free Republic, a political activist who has organized several rallies in Washington DC in support of our military, says that's always a concern but has never been a significant problem.

"Having marshalls to monitor the crowd, preferably Jurisdictional and former military police or retired law enforcement at the event can defuse a situation before it gets out of hand."
But you can be sure that if there is an incident, the Left and its handmaidens in the nation's newsrooms will blame it on the Right.

Join us tonight at 9 when Noel Sheppard and I discuss this escalating war between the Left and the Right.

Between reading this and having this morning watched my kitty urinate on a free copy of The Boston Globe delivered to my door by that dying rag, I am having a good day!

I wouldn’t be surprised if the left started trouble at the Tea Partys. Best be aware and act accordingly.

“Our concern is that some Leftard nutjob will infiltrate the thus far civilized and well conducted rallies to create havoc and violence.”

Agreed. Here’s what I said in March:

“Protest organizers need to beware “agents provocateurs”. Leftists have a lot more experience with protests than conservatives & they have always accused their enemies (government, capitalists, conservative governments, etc.) of placing agents provocateurs in the crowd; to incite violence, etc. & thereby give the demonstration bad PR.

The leftists always accuse conservatives of doing what they’re doing themselves — so, it’s likely they’re already thinking about ways to disrupt conservative protests.”

I can assure Mr. Beckel that I will be attending the Manchester, NH, tea party and I will be carrying.

Of course, I never leave the house without my trusty Sig.

Beckel shows the level of his intelligence once again (somewhere in the elementary school level....no disrespect to all the elementary kids out there)...FoxNews should not have this leftist apologist on any more.

A “disturbance” and an attempt to stifle the right of the people to assemble might be the “trigger”.

The nation is crackling with static electricity, looking for a discharge point.

The left intends to enslave us, we intend to resist. Both are willing to use force to get their way.

Not to quibble but the left’s fondness for the suffix ‘tard’ should not be adopted or condoned by the right.

I have long been gratified to see proper grammar, spelling and construction be the hallmark of conservative writers and posters and clearly superior to anything put forth by the left’s legions of infantile name-callers.

I am reminded of a scene in "Grapes of Wrath" when the Okies found out that some local thugs were going to start a fight so the sheriff's deputies could come in. The head of the Okies' dance said, "If you gotta sock 'em, sock 'em, where it ain't agonna show."

"Our concern is that some Leftard nutjob will infiltrate..."

It worked for them once back in the '90s when the Clintons tried to blame Rush for the militia movement and the Oklahoma City Bombing. They are just rehashing the "Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy" meme. Wait a minute...Beckel has participated in that. Along with Begala, Carville, Stephanopouloid & Co. More things change, the more they stay the same.

They will be hyping the Skinheads again in an orchestrated extremist panic.
Just "take the Obammunists bowling" this time.

I noticed Glenn Beck toning it down the last couple of shows.

Use it at will.

The evidence of the “crackling” is the gun and ammo sales.
(Try to find reasonably priced 9mm handgun ammo ANYWHERE...)

It’s also evident in Levin’s book sales, as well...

Beckel is allowed to spew his liberal spin on Fox all the time, and is highly respected by the hosts from what I have seen.

He is allowed to many times to talk over conservatives, and butt in with the last quite consistently.

Another one given free rein is Juan Williams.

Ever since Obama was elected Fox News has given him much more camera time (duh wonder why, PC racism to the max) and treated him like a guru as they fawn over his liberal spin They can't counter him too severely, that would be racist.

The leftist are in full attack mode.

It may have not been a significant problem before, but they are desperate.

No matter what steps we take, we need to be very aware of unexpected underhanded methods of disruption including violence that they plan to start and make it look like the tea party attendees are responsible.
