Note by Kristinn: The ten minute video was shot from the periphery of the crowd at the Madison Tea Party rally during Sarah Palin's speech. The union members and their supporters did their best to drown out Palin with jeers, chants, horns, bells, boos, etc.
While Palin is not seen in the video, having watched her speech live I can appreciate how poised she was under the steady barrage of noise trying to shut her down or throw her off her game.
Andrew Breitbart, who introduced Palin at the rally, wrote at Big Government of the profane sexual abuse the union members and their supporters hurled at Palin and her family when they arrived for the rally:
But there was another group also there to greet us; the shock troops sent by Richard Trumka and president Obamas Organizing for America...
The TV cameras showing the speech caught little of this phalanx of thugs that we had to walk through. Middle fingers flew and the trendy talking point insult of Koch Suckers! was everywhere. Sarah Palin was called names that made me wonder if Bill Maher was writing for this mob. Apparently, women-hating sexual mockery is acceptable if directed at the right, even if that womans children are present.
Through it all, Palin triumphed, with Reuters headlining a commentary: Palin in Madison: Veni Vidi, Vici.
FYI.
Thanks Kristinn...
Gee. Makes me want to run out and
burn my conservative card. NOT!
Adding to kristinn’s list of Palin pingers.
Not a Palin fan, but these Leftists are still lower than pond scum.
Pretty sick that they met her and her family with such vile comments. Very mentally sick people.
For those who don’t know, Ann was herself the target of the vile multi-page manifesto from a demented stalker during the occupation of the Capitol when she had the audacity to call the those stinking pigs what they were.
From Breitbart’s comments it was clear the nasty union/liberal/progressive element was out in force as they’d promised they would be to disrupt and try to deny our side from enjoying the same right to peaceful assembly they were given.
Well, they can just Go to Hell!
Sarah Palin didn’t miss a beat, she wasn’t drawn off message one iota by their mindless babbling and screamed insults. She was magnificent!
As were all the speakers. And Sarah, Andrew, Donald Trump and a few others are showing us the way - the way to take it to Obama and rather than sit back and make nice “across the aisle” deals with “our good friends” - it is GAME ON! We are the Majority and we are Silent No More!
Oh really? And I’ve been reading some of the lib bloggers reporting that those vile Tea Partiers were saying mean things to them.
Reports about the number of Tea Partiers and union thugs are mixed. (Union thugs say they had more people there.) Any ideas?
Wow, that is one brave woman. If she runs, I’ll be there.
I hope the Republican Party uses images of this and other outrageous actions by the Dims and makes an ad showing the difference in civility... and then asking...
Which group of people is like you?
Which group of people are you comfortable with?
Which group do you want to be in control of this country?
Leftists are ugly - inside & out.
Still got mine, right here!
Thanks. She is a courageous woman. And once again the union thugs come off looking really bad. It looks like some of those same thugs have added their negative comments to the YouTube thread pertaining to the video.
They should be mad their union bosses wasted 3 million of thier pension funds on a losing election.
Pray for America
Things go better with Koch.
I was impressed by her speech and I’m impressed by what she faced down to give it.
She fights. Say what you want about her, she fights. She has more nerve than just about anyone I can think of in the GOP establishment. Where were they? Absent?
Thats right. AWOL in the fight of the century.
How true!
... and too stupid to know that all they are doing is making campaign commercials for Gov Palin. Idiots. Prepare to lose the mushy middle...
