Right Wing Extremists Take Over Tea Parties
The Tea Party is on… and by all accounts, they are a huge success.
CNN Makes fun of the protests and makes a case for the stimulus… the nasty Necons don’t appreciate the handouts. Fox is at fault…
And the talking heads make fun of the protest using the “tea bagging” analogy… which a radio jockey would be fired for saying the term.
See Crazy Right Wingers in action… see the anger, the hate, the extremist neocons:

More extremists found here:

The Department of Homeland Security has been forced to respond their report.
STATEMENT BY U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY JANET NAPOLITANO ON THE THREAT OF RIGHT-WING EXTREMISM
The primary mission of this department is to prevent terrorist attacks on our nation. The document on right-wing extremism sent last week by this department’s Office of Intelligence and Analysis is one in an ongoing series of assessments to provide situational awareness to state, local and tribal law enforcement agencies on the phenomenon and trends of violent radicalization in the United States. I was briefed on the general topic, which is one that struck a nerve as someone personally involved in the Timothy McVeigh prosecution.
Let me be very clear: we monitor the risks of violent extremism taking root here in the United States. We don’t have the luxury of focusing our efforts on one group; we must protect the country from terrorism whether foreign or homegrown, and regardless of the ideology that motivates its violence.
We are on the lookout for criminal and terrorist activity but we do not – nor will we ever – monitor ideology or political beliefs. We take seriously our responsibility to protect the civil rights and liberties of the American people, including subjecting our activities to rigorous oversight from numerous internal and external sources.
I am aware of the letter from American Legion National Commander Rehbein, and my staff has already contacted him to set up a meeting next week once I return from travel. I will tell him face-to-face that we honor veterans at DHS and employ thousands across the department, up to and including the Deputy Secretary.
As the department responsible for protecting the homeland, DHS will continue to work with its state and local partners to prevent and protect against the potential threat to the United States associated with any rise in violent extremist activity.
Here’s hope for some change…

That CNN “interview” was was simply the most disgraceful thing I’ve EVER seen a “journalist” pull.
She basically sideswiped that poor guy holding his kid on his shoulder.
Just when I was starting to think that CNN wasn’t so bad anymore.

HA! I love it!!! Journalists taking their smart assed, snotty, elitist shots at everyday people. They are simply polarizing people more. WoooHOOO!! Keep it up you jerks!

Elitist? Since when did moderate and sensible become elitist? Ah, yes, it becomes elitist when viewed by people with no critical thinking skills and lots of twisted prejudices who can’t even spell correctly.

CNN created OBAMA to be the next comming is now going to ‘wear’ what they created. Fox speaks for the people and OBAMA.
Canada deserves a FOX-like national television and let’s see how fast the canadian MSM will retract their words.
How about a Rush Limbaugh in canada. He will eat the liberals, CBC,CTV,G/M T/S for breakfast.

To show you how the MSM do not work for us canadians.
SCHREIBER-I know, here we go again, right? not this time folks. Anyway, Schreiber the liberals scheme has revealed the day before from his ‘little book’ that 30-50thousand dollars were given to PAUL MARTIN-JEAN CHRETIEN, CHAREST.
Now I wonder why the MSM like Tabor,OLIVER, MANSBRIDGE ETC had not mention this. I thought that they wanted to know everything Schreiber did.

It’s becoming more and more apparent WHO the “rich elitists” are. THEY are showing more and more just how very concerned THEY are that “we the people” are taking back the blank check book and THEY are going to be out of office and out of conrol.

I am registered to vote as No Party Affiliation. I am mostly apolitical. However, I accidentally attended a Tea Party in Tallahassee, FL, on April 15. The people there were mostly like me. Just normal people trying to get their voices heard.
I watched many “news” shows after the Tea Party. CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS and NBC were brutal in their assessment of we non-elitists. MSNBC actually reported that the Tea Parties were actually racist. Their reporting is biased and, frankly, disgusting. I don’t normally watch FOX news, but, after watching the other stations, I am going to watch FOX exclusively. They are vastly less biased than the rest.

Extremists to oppose bailouts of trillions of taxpayer dollars? Keep it up! I’m looking forward to more Marionette (Marie Antoinette) language from the Democrats drunk on power to lead them straight to a crushing loss of their congressional majorities. Extremists like Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson opposed British taxes without representation. Extremists like Thomas Paine. Yeah, they were extremists too and the Democrats and their fawning press sound exactly like mad King George. Please! Please keep up the dismissive attitude to the taxpayer whose employees you are!

“Where Being Conservative Means You’ll Need To Keep It Secret.”
LOL! Love it! And ain’t it the truth! I am deeply in a blue closet up here! LOL!

i’m stunned at the utter ignorance displayed by CNN. their ratings have been consistently in the tank and have taken no steps to correct it. all they do is villify the FOX network but would never consider the possibility of duplicating their success( which is a sound business practice.). a clear indication they’re not in this for objective journalism but rather one sided indoctrination. it kills me to think they actually consider themselves legitimate journalists.

Seems to me that to stop, or bog down the welfare system is easy. Everyone, simply everyone, eligible or not simply applies for benefits. That will bog the system so badly that the outgo will drop. Bureauocracies have to process the paperwork and this will tie up all of them. If they refuse to accept the paperwork, sue the state or local governments. That costs them even more money. The bureaucrats cannot afford to defend themselves in court against large court ordered payouts. Along the same lines, get together and pool your cash and hire a lawyer to sue them for any policies that are unpopular and attempt to get a class action suit in motion. Challenge property taxes, auto taxes etc ad nauseum. Fight every traffic or infraction ticket in court and cost them money they can ill afford. If even 20% of the population do this, city hall has a problem. If they go bankrupt, they cannot do anything. For government unable to do anything, they are reduced to doing no harm while in that state.
