Top Bush Aide Denounces Mark Levin, Malkin, Others as 'Unhinged...Bolshevik' Enforcers
Newsbusters ^ | 9/19/10 | Tim Graham

Posted on 09/19/2010 8:10:19 PM PDT by Mozilla

Former top Bush speechwriter Michael Gerson is a Washington Post columnist, and there is never a better time for right-leaning columnists to lean left than in the last weeks of an election season. (See George Will trashing Sen. George Allen in the last weeks of 2006.) His rant also may have granted Gerson a seat on CBS's Face the Nation on Sunday.

Gerson not only denounced Christine O'Donnell as a wacky candidate like Alan Keyes, he denounced "the childish political thought of the Tea Party." He insisted conservatives were like Bolsheviks. Bloggers like Michelle Malkin and talk show hosts like Mark Levin were "unhinged" against Karl Rove.

Gerson wants to suggest that the Tea Party people are unhinged in their rhetoric, and then he compares them to murderous Russian communists. Remember this the next time Gerson agrees with a liberal that Obama shouldn't be smeared with foreign associations.

No. I think people are just now finding out what the Bush administration was all about.

Yep. Statists to the left of me, statists to the right of me, statists all around me.

Rush nailed it. Its us or Washington. The establishment class is the enemy of the Republic.

[No. I think people are just now finding out what the Bush administration was all about. ]

There was quite a while when the Bushbots nearly ruled Ree Republic. Fortunately, the purge has begun.

Krauthammer is definitly an inside the beltway type, but he’s not a RINO, IMO. I may not agree with everything he says, but I tend to agree with him more often than not. As for Gerson, Rove, Castle and Murkowski, they can go pound sand. Inspite of Bush’s faults (and they are many) I still think he’s a good guy. I never doubted his love for America. The current President on the other hand..............

No, they are not insane. They are members of the ruling class Washington inside-the-beltway elite. No matter what party is in the power all the those folks hang together.
One of the reasons Palin was rejected.
The French revolution is a classic example of “Power to the People”. Let our revolution start without the blood shed, if possible.

Yet more evidence that the establishment is a primary enemy of freedom. They will fight to the last breath to keep their lofty positions and self-importance and will use any tactic available to them.

In the end, I'm of the opinion that it will take an armed revolt to remove these scumbags from their perch, and I truly hope I'm wrong.

RINOS are coming unhinged.

Its a wonderful thing.

Desperation is driving them to
make such outlandinh statements, simply because they are losing the battle for America.In truth they lost that battle in the 2008 election.Now they need to get out of the way.

She kicked the hornet's nest--and I want to know what was in the nest. What is unfolding before our eyes is NOT normal.

Yes, something is strange about this "protesting." Either they are pulling a Br'er Rabbit and they are trying to keep the Indies' votes in some odd, round-about way (as in the Tea Party is the opposite of Bush) OR they have done some nasty dealings with the Libs/Dems and they do NOT want us to know.

It's sort of creepy.

Gerson not only denounced Christine O'Donnell as a wacky candidate like Alan Keyes, he denounced "the childish political thought of the Tea Party."

Alan Keyes was the forerunner. He was Alinskyed by the Obama faction and this same Republican establishment quite some time ago.

And lots of "conservatives" helped.

I hope all of those who participated in trashing Alan five or six years ago are happy with themselves. I know for a fact that some of them are the ones being trashed themselves now. Levin and Malkin are among them.

After the Obamacare vote I said we would have to sack DC to keep these goons away from our earnings and private property.

They stole our private healthcare without blinking an eye, and with impunity.

The entire W. Bush admin resembled nothing so much as a turkey farm. There are almost certainly some turkey farms which don’t have that many turkeys in one place.

Near as I can tell,the GOP and the Dems are both in on the establishment of a socialist America.

The jig is up, and we know it.

They must be very close to their goal, for this level of naked opposition to the people and their choice.

It used to be we would run to the GOP from the Dems. They used us in the lost decade of 2000-2010.The GOP became the Democrats when they were in power. From 2007 on, both parties have wrecked the economy.

We’re not being used anymore.

Castle is tied into this somehow. He was going to be a reliable vote for Cap and Trade, and I personally know he is a true believer in globaloney—he admitted that to me himself.

But I think this was only part of the plan.

It evidently must be very important and necessary to stop and discredit Christine and the other TP backed candidates.

I can’t even believe I am talking like this, but something is rotten in Denmark-——and in DC.

It appears that the RINOs are looking for a fight. History is now repeating itself. Consider that in 1854, the two major parties were the RATs and the Whigs. Along came the PUB party, which the Whigs denounced. The problem was that the Whigs stood for nothing, had no outstanding leaders and served no purpose, save to be “the other party”. By 1860, the Whigs were gone and the GOP was in ascendancy.

“Wermer, dead; Marmalaud, dead; Neidermayer,...dead”.

“Gerson, Rove, Krauthammer, Castle and Murkowski are providing the examples of a elite establishment not willing to hear the voters. Their narcissistic view of power and their entitlement is endangered by the victories of Tea Party-supported candidates.
There must be something really big at stake, bigger than what we can see, or know right now.

Christine threw a cog into the works.

All this uncalled for vitriol is not for nothing.

She kicked the hornet’s nest—and I want to know what was in the nest.

What is unfolding before our eyes is NOT normal. “


Your assessment is 100% valid, and well informed IMHO

Something bigger is happening. The role of GOP as a second fiddle enabler for Communist style (as in central concentration of power) is being challenged by Tea Party US Citizens.
Planned consolidation of Federal Power over individual State power is the prize in all of this. Of course, this directly translate into individual freedom and the survival of Our Precious Republic.
