Coffee Talk...

The “Coffee Party Movement” came to our attention last week. I waited to discuss it, as it reeked of a “progressive” astroturf operation, and I was waiting for evidence of that to emerge. Today, Newsbusters is reporting just that.
"John Roberts and Kiran Chetry omitted mentioning that Annabel Park, the founder of the so-called Coffee Party, worked as a volunteer for President Barack Obama’s presidential campaign, during an interview on Wednesday’s American Morning. The anchors also didn’t mention Park’s past work for the liberal New York Times.
The founder denied that her movement was aligned to any party, and actually criticized the longstanding two-party system in the United States as being “incredibly outdated.” In reality, as William A. Jacobson of Legal Insurrection blog exposed, Park worked for one of the two parties, as an organizer and operator of the United for Obama video channel on YouTube (NewsBuster P. J. Gladnick blogged about Jacobson’s expose on Tuesday evening). As the United for Obama page admits, “We are a network of Obama volunteers from all across the country and from all backgrounds working together to support Obama’s message of unity and change….Some of us are filmmakers and we created this page to amplify Obama’s message on YouTube…The filmmakers include…Annabel Park…”
So, this whole “coffee party” idea is nothing more than an extension of Obama’s army of useful idiots.
It might be safe to assume that this whole organization is being put together in an attempt to confuse the electorate, and steal some of the Tea Party movement’s thunder. It will fail at this, but they know that the MSM will cover them, and cover up their failure. It might also be assumed that since ACORN is busy renaming their local organizations in an effort to hide their corruption, and the SEIU is well known for being thugs, that their astroturf efforts require a new face that hasn’t been tainted by corruption and violence.
The left continues to labor under the false assumption that their ideas are what people want, and that somehow, we’re either too stupid to know how great they are, or that they haven’t properly “educated” us all about them. So, repackaging, changing the name, denying the content, and so on, will all be used. This fake populism is the same thing. Get another group out there, use the propaganda wing (The MSM) to promote them, and try to get some of the independents back.
In the end, the left will be expending resources for nothing, They fail to see that the people actually do not want big government solutions to our prolbems. We don’t want government run health care. We do not want government run car companies. We do not want $7 a gallon gas. We don’t want higher taxes. They also think that we don’t know that big government gave us these problems as well. They can try to sugarcoat it all they want, but like the Congressional Dems, they’ll find out how wrong they are.
I’m not at all concerned with this movement. They’ll try to bus in a bunch of people for paid protests. The MSM will make a big deal about it, and ignore the Tea Party next door with ten times the attendance, but that’s OK. They also fail to see that the MSM is irrelevant. They are clinging to the old paradigm that they can say anything, have the media repeat it, and the people will follow. We aren’t following the media, and we certainly won’t follow some paid useful idiots either. Leave them alone, and they’ll embarrass themselves with their fail.
As time wears on, we’ll find out more and more about these folks, and who is funding them. We’ll get the word out as information becomes available.
As it seems fitting, I have added the Coffee Party to the Useful Idiot of the Month poll. Enjoy!
Thanks and good to know!
Now when the goofy libs in some groups I belong to (nothing to do with politics but God they run their “progressive” mouths about “Teabaggers” enough) start pushing the Coffee Party, I can ask what is grassroots about a person who worked on the campaign of the person in charge? What are they protesting? The Tea Party itself? So they organized a group of people to go neener neener neener to another group of people? How mature.
I like it when goofy libs get busted. I like it even more when goofy libs associated with Obama get busted.
Thank you. I know there are a bunch of people trying to figure out who is funding it. So that is the next thing to go.
q. What’s the difference between the Tea Party and the Coffee Party?
a. The Coffee Party is Chock Full o’ Nuts!
Coffee Talk...
That’s priceless!

I think RUSH talked about this yesterday. The word is out. They're just another Oboma infomercial.
Liberals must hate the internet.
