Kathleen Parker Calls Townhall Demonstrators 'Fringe' and Tax Protesters 'Teabaggers'
NewsBusters ^ | August 9, 2009 | P.J. Gladnick

Kathleen Parker has an interesting little shtick.

Few noticed her when she was writing from a conservative point of view...until she started attacking conservatives about a year ago. Then she went whole hog and has made a lucrative new career of attacking conservatives...while still going through the motions of pretending to be conservative.

Parker's latest column on the topic of townhall protests is but the latest in her role of pretend conservative. Here is how "conservative" Parker refers to those protesters:

Generally considered a fringe group, the demonstrators have been described derisively by Democratic leaders. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi claimed that some were "carrying swastikas." Sens. Dick Durbin of Illinois and Chuck Schumer of New York have dismissed the protesters as irrelevant.

Gee? I wonder who uses the term "teabaggers?" And you want us to believe you are a conservative, Kathleen?

And she and her ilk are Anti-American Marxist Communist Taxtaking Enemys of the USA who hate everything about this country and honest hard working freedom loving people.

Like Nooner, Parker has sold out to Obama hoping to get some when Michelle isn't looking. Sorry Kathleen, you are thinking of the other 'rat president. This one wouldn't be interested in you. At all.

She’s the Washington Post’s slightly more feminine version of David Brooks.....

Ms. Parker, please show some honesty and declare yourself a Democrat.

This traitor is NOT a Conservative. She has shown her true colors with her kool aid drinking attitude when the subject of Obama comes up.

Kathleen you disgust me. You’re nothing more than a fake!

She’s a Romney supporter, so why would this be surprising...

I'd honestly never heard of Kathleen Parker until she wrote one of her articles slamming conservatives that someone posted here.

And now she's gotten a little attention, she just can't stop herself. She might have gotten the idea from our 2008 presidential nominee.

I thought she had dark, tightly curled hair. Who’s that in the picture? Whoever it is, the Kool-aid has certainly gone to her head.

She’s an Obama stooge. Nothing more..nothing less. She should be ignored. The libs will use her, just like they do all faux conservatives, and then they will spit her out.

The left always confuses tea parties with tea bagging.

She went Noonan. She fell in love with a man who is half-black. ZIts an abusive relationship from what I hear.

Parker goes on to say:

I’m not so sure these protests are insignificant. Are my three friends really so far removed from such expressions of acute frustration? Lately, they have a new understanding of how uncertainty, complicated by unemployment and growing debt, morphs into anger.

And then, perchance, to rage?
