The childish political thought of the Tea Party
The Washington Post ^ | 09/17/2010 | Michael Gerson

Posted on 09/17/2010 10:11:35 PM PDT by Outlaw Woman

With his recent criticisms of Delaware Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell on Fox News, Karl Rove kicked up a controversy. His critique of O'Donnell was granular and well-informed. Having worked with Karl for a number of years, I know that he is nothing if not detail-oriented. Rove has taken O'Donnell to task for her checkered financial past, her history of litigiousness and paranoia,...

As long as the left continues to characterize the Tea Party in this fashion, they will continue to remain on the defensive and will also remain highly vulnerable.

I hate it when these liberal elitists talk down to us like this as though we are a bunch of children throwing a tantrum. KMA Mikey! You can bend over and drop you drawers for your massas in Washington. I’m not going to.

We Bible thumping, Constitution loving, gun clinging peasants are too stoopid to know what’s good for us. Much better to leave those tough decisions such as; what to do with OUR money, how to raise OUR children, how to live OUR lives, to those RULING CLASS elites that are so much smarter than us.

Oh he was quite condescending regarding us and completely overlooked the why behind the reaction.

Poor, Poor Karl, he was only doing his job and just look at how he got treated. /s

Both parties have hijacked America to “THEIR” beliefs that have nothing to do with America but with only politics in Washington.We need to rid ourselves of both of these arrogant parties before they destroy the country.

Hasn’t this week been interesting?? Stunning but interesting. Look at all the people that have come out and exposed their true selves. We have a lot of work to do!

...”checkered financial past, her history of litigiousness and paranoia, her misleading statements about her educational background”....

None of this is true?

A former senior Bush aide, chief speechwriter Michael Gerson, told POLITICO that he supports Obama’s decision.

“An enormously complex and emotional issue — but ultimately the right thing to do,” Gerson said. “A president is president for every citizen, including every Muslim citizen. Obama is correct that the way to marginalize radicalism is to respect the best traditions of Islam and protect the religious liberty of Muslim Americans. It is radicals who imagine an American war on Islam. But our conflict is with the radicals alone.”

Clueless...
