Return With Us Now To the Peaceful Protest Imagery Of the Bush Years
Big Journalism ^ | Mar 29th 2010 | Warner Todd Huston

With all the tales in the Old Media of the supposed violence committed by Tea Partiers going on since Obama’s takeover of our nation’s healthcare system, I thought it might be instructive to recall how hate-filled the unhinged left is in America today.

A year ago, the good folks at Zomblog assembled a great series of photos showing the mental derangement exhibited by the human detritus at those once ubiquitous anti-war rallies that the distempered left hosted so often between the years 2003 and 2009… you know, those anti-war rallies that totally disappeared after Obama took office even as the wars rage on? Yeah, those anti-war rallies.

Why was no one ever arrested for threatening President Bush at protests, when they displayed signs in public that called for his death? Many readers may naively think, “The answer is obvious: no protester was ever arrested for threatening Bush at a protest because no one ever threatened him at a protest. Who would be that stupid? I certainly never heard of any such threats.”

Alas, if only it were that simple. Because the bald fact is that people threatened Bush at protests all the time by displaying menacing signs and messages — exactly as the anti-Obama protester just did in Maryland. Yet for reasons that are not entirely clear, none of those Bush-threateners at protests was ever arrested, questioned, or investigated (at least as far as I could tell).

In any case, if the left and the Old Media want to pretend that Tea Partiers are nothing but filled with hate, perhaps they should get a look at some of these photos?

I have been to two Tea Parties in washington DC and I have never met a nicer more congenial group of people.

Of course that was before they were ignored, put upon and called names.

Here is several photos of illegal alien protests from the Bush days with some ugly posters against Bush.

Evidently the sister wasn't dead yet when they took the picture.

I'll play "Pollyanna"...hey lady, just BE GLAD they fit you.

The left is afflicted with chameleonitis, amnesia and schizophrenia. They caught these dreaded diseases from
Berky Insane Obummer, a noted carrier of infectious pathogenics who should be quarantined immediately on Komodo Island in Indonesia where he can no longer be a danger to
Americans.

Oh yeah, it all went down the memory hole. I remember listening to some hosts on Air Amerika calling the Bush brothers the Bush B_stards and that they needed to meet some unpleasant end on a prime time drive to work on AM radio. That was the hosts, not the callers.
