Don’t Tread on Them (NY Times speaks - Tea Party/Tax Revolt links and updates)

The New York Times ^ | April 7, 2009 | Lawrence Downes

[abb]

Not glowering sky nor mud nor threat of hailstones sufficed to deter about 300 souls from massing on the sodden village green in Northport, N.Y., that afternoon.

They were a band of like minds bent on dire provocations seldom witnessed in the harborside hamlet on Long Island Sound. It was a day for brandishing signs, shouting imprecations and donning silly clothing: tricorn hats and breeches, bonnets and petticoats. A few carried pitchforks, the better to jab the message home. We good farm folk are fed up and will be silent no more.

Their enemy: a tyrannical government heedless of the people’s will and blind to its manifold injustices. Their tactic: a Boston-style tea party, a symbolic rebellion for times that once again are trying men’s souls.

Tea parties are a recent phenomenon, spawned in the red-meat districts of right-wing talk radio and cable TV. It was strange to see the rebels reach Northport, whose antiques ’n’ potpourri Main Street, with a half-dozen empty stores, could use a little federal stimulus.

But down at the park gazebo, the green lawn was rumbling with grass-roots anger. Actually, its grass-rootiness was highly debatable. What were the citizens angry about? The stimulus? Not really, said one organizer. He had problems with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Laws impeding capital formation. “Indict Charlie Rangel,” said a sign. “Lowlife Obama!” roared a man in the crowd, causing giggles.

The nyt article was dripping with sarcasm and deriding the people at the event.

If this were a group of liberal people, the article would describe the event completely differently. The libs are definitely hate-filled against anything that disagrees with them.

[fortunate sun]

How wonderfully condescending of them to take note. Obviously “Pinchie Boy” has left his bathhouse buddies to come up for air.

From the last graf of the article.

Too bad hardly anyone noticed.

They made him look, didn't they? And write about it in the NY Times, lol.

[Red_Devil 232]

Bob Beckel appeared on Fox News yesterday 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.

I will wager you some Duke or Lord across the pond was saying the same thing, (except it was whiskey instead of vodka) back in 1776.

[sergeantdave]

Lawrence Downes dabbed rouge on his sunken cheeks and checked his lipstick in the mirror. He had a heavy date with Boxcar Barney to spray “I Love Obama” graffiti on the walls of the Kennedy Center. The miniature purple-dyed poodle in his fruited purse whimpered.

“Hush, Marilyn. Here’s a nice piece of tofu to munch on.” Lawrence brushed a piece of tofu from his Che bikini top and adjusted the replica Pict chain-mail hung around his waist.

“These right wingers in their hats look so funny,” he said to himself. Then he wrote: “The tee parties is a cymbal of krazy rite-wingers and their asledged greevances with peeple and them all sorts of polytikal polices in the Obama whitehorse.”

The sentence didn’t look right. That word “whitehorse” looked strange. No matter, the city editor could correct any mistakes. Besides, he couldn’t read and Obama knew where he lived anyway.

Lawrence adjusted the pink needles hanging from his eyelids and squirted engine oil on his head to tamp down an unruly lock of orange hair.

[Jimmy Valentine]

"Bob Beckel appeared on Fox News yesterday morning to sneer"

Beckel is one of the great smirkers and sneerers operating.

He needs to be reminded of what happened in the year 2000 when he openly talked about turning electors to Gore from Bush.

The push back was so huge that he actually ran away for about two weeks. He called the head of the Republican Party to ask to have "the dogs called off."

[Man50D]

It was strange to see the rebels reach Northport, whose antiques ’n’ potpourri Main Street, with a half-dozen empty stores, could use a little federal stimulus.

Only to socialists would someone who defends the Constitution and seeks to reverse government expansion be considered a rebel.

[Rockiette]

I understand the NYT’s is losing readership and the stockholders are furious, they want Pinch and his effete mob to leave the paper, they said he and his fellow morons are ruining the bottom line and they demand that he leave. Capitalism raises it’s attractive head and will finally rid the world of Soro’s loving, America hating scum who have run out of time.

[Girlene]

What a hilarious article. The New York times at their "finest". The federal, state, and local "enforcement" oversight of a 300 plus protest says a lot about their priorities:

The chief of the Northport Fire Department, which like many on Long Island is bristlingly equipped by compliant taxpayers with enough gear to protect small European principalities, kept watch from his official S.U.V.

The Northport Police directed traffic as a search-and-rescue boat idled over by the marina.

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, alerted to the possibility of tea dumping without permits, had sent two armed officers.<[hahaha - the funniest part of this article]

And at the dock, a 41-foot Coast Guard boat from the Eatons Neck Station, with a five-man crew, kept its engines running in case anybody or anything was attacked, scuttled, dunked or sunk.

LOL. Now if that isn't overkill by law enforcement, I don't know what is.

[Girlene]

LOL, sergeantdave. Well done.

[ken5050]

This past Saturday afternoon I went to a local art show/street festival here in Tampa. Aming the displays was a booth selling, or rather, attempting to sell..subscriptions to the NY Times. The guy called out to me..I just laughed at him...

[NordP]

I had a similar thing happen to me. Twice, I was approached at the front door of my local Big Lots here in San Diego, by a SD Union Tribune representative. This gentleman was wearing a suit and tie and was approx 60 yrs old. If I were to guess, I would think he was management hoping to save a business, not a salesman with a cute idea to sell more papers.

He asked me if I was getting the daily newspaper... I told him that I recently canceled the weekEND edition subscription I HAD, because the paper was just too liberal. I don't want to read left leaning propaganda anymore. He nodded, as if to say...lower your voice and please move on.

I smiled...it was just my way of giving back ;-)

[hsalaw]

Bob Beckel appeared on Fox News yesterday morning to sneer at the nationwide event.

He's getting very defensive about The Zero and his policies, and as a result, is even more insulting than usual.

[beejaa]

The NY Times truly does not understand what this is about.

This is from the Richmond (VA) Tea Party web site:

“We come from all walks of life, and we are the Taxpayer. We are Taxpayers, United. We share common values of fiscal responsibility and respect for free markets and the critical role small business plays in our economy. We believe that Americans know how to spend their own money better than the government does, and taxpayers do not want their money wasted.

“We will not stand idly by while our Government destroys the principles that have allowed this nation to flourish and replaces them with a socialist agenda.

“Tax Day Tea Party Purpose: To peacefully protest a government that is loading unfathomable and incomprehensible amounts of debt on this and future generations in order to fund so-called ‘stimulus’ packages and bailouts and “pork projects” for special interest groups. The amount is so great that it will not be able to repaid without increased taxation. Confiscatory taxation means greater government control over our lives, and a loss of our freedom and liberty. Our protest can only be effective in masses! Join Us.”

[Fu-fu2]

“The nyt article was dripping with sarcasm and deriding the people at the event.”

The usual left wing tactic of using derision and sarcasm to minimalize conservatives.....

[I'm ALL Right!]

The condescending nature of this entire article is meant to belittle the people who stand up, and keep others, who are more thin-skinned, away from the protest. This arse is taking part in the Obama propaganda machine.

Quick word of advice to him: People who lose their freedom rarely get it back. You are working on the side of those who wish to take away our freedom. You're helping tear down our First Amendment rights. BTW, they're your rights as well. Eventually, your own actions will make you a slave to the government.

If you are only willing to fight for the rights of those who believe as you do, you're not really an American. I despise liberal thought, and I don't have to agree with a word of it, but I'll fight for their right to hold their own beliefs and speak out about them.
