Comparing the Tea Party to the KKK and the Know Nothings of earlier eras is hardly accurate historical scholarship. Yet in the perverse minds of leftist ideologues, it's taken as such with no questions asked.
The left (and its MSM lackeys) has an obsession with trying to marginalize and destroy the Tea Party that is way out of proportion to the Tea Party's strength and influence. But they know that Tea Party ideas and values more than Tea Party political power pose a barrier to their design of a complete transformation of the United States into a Soviet-like state. Kind of telling that in this interview with Parker, the word "Constitution" never comes up.
The McCain-McConnell PACS probably fund this commie prof, pay him to go to war to kill off the Tea Party voter.
It's hardly a real comparison, but it's the objective of the article -- sliming Tea Partiers.
