MoveOn.org drives new liberal catch phrase: ‘Tea party downgrade’ Matthew Boyle - The Daily Caller 43 mins ago

The left-wing activist group MoveOn.org picked up the new liberal slogan bashing conservatives for Standard & Poor’s U.S. credit rating downgrade: “Tea Party downgrade.” President Obama’s chief campaign strategist David Axelrod and Massachusetts Democratic Sen. John Kerry both used the phrase on Sunday talk shows.

In a Sunday afternoon email to supporters, MoveOn.org accused tea partiers of being responsible for the first-ever credit downgrade in U.S. history. “This ‘tea party downgrade’ is a shameful blow to our nation’s honor and risks throwing us right back into recession,” Moveon.org wrote. “Worst of all? It was completely avoidable. But when given the choice between extremist posturing and responsible leadership, tea party Republicans chose wrong.” (RELATED: Axelrod: ‘This is essentially a tea party downgrade’)

MoveOn.org added that “now, amazingly, they’re trying to pin the blame on Democrats.”

The marching orders have gone out for The Big Lie of the Day.

Expect this Big Lie to be repeated endlessly by most corrupt elements of the Regime Media at CNN, NBC, Washington Post, ad nauseum.

Incidentally, this was a huge defeat for the “Tea Party”: $900 billion in “cuts” really mean $7 trillion more in debt.

Democratic Congress spent us into a Debt Crisis and they are blaming the Tea Party.

That might work on the true believers but I’m seeing a lot of my liberal relatives just shaking their heads at the democrats these days.

I agree although backfire may be a bit strong. But 'fail' wouldn't be. But even failing it will be believed by 35% of adults and 25% of Likely Voters.
