printThis time the CNN gig went not to Soledad O’Brien, the Agony Aunt of the “Black In America,” “Latino In the Same Place,” and plain “Boring in America” propaganda series, but to a like-minded brother (talk about lack of intellectual diversity!)
The gig: conveying to CNN’s dwindling audience how dangerous the tea party truly is.
The end product: “Boiling Point: Inside the Tea Party,” an amateurish production featuring a badly written script, a sinister sound track, and a lot of edgy adjectives in the service of a not-so-subliminal message: RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.
From comedian Jon Stewart to the MSNBC desperadoes, to CNN’s race hucksters—the liberal media is adamant to do all they can to ward off the inevitable Republican victory (however futile that may be, as “there is no returning America to a place of financial safety”).
UPDATE (Nov. 1): I missed the left-liberal’s slur hereunder, in the Comments Section. I thought his spelling was remiss. But I had to cut out all the sexual insults he levied at my appearance to come to the gist of the one valid argument he came up with. Shows you how committed I am to argument here on BAB. Of course, humanity’s detritus considers it their right to post their bile on private property, which is what BAB is. Indeed, BAB Posting Policy does demand a valid email address. honestperson@aol.com: Is this not a valid addressed? As I said, I’m so committed to argument, that this kind of dreck can get the better of me.
Really? I thought it was an accurate portrayal of TBagger’s who while sucking off entitlement programs (like over 50% of TBaggers), want to cut them. While they talk of cutting Big Government Back Door Deals, they benefit from them. O’Donnell doing it illegally.
Contradictions, contradictions.
[This is indeed true, as I illustrated in “Statism Starts With YOU!”—IM]
Really, Really? I think we ought to blast the Tea Party folks every chance we get. Let’s take a grass roots movement of millions of people who are taking a stand, probably the first time for most, and speaking up for the country. But I guess most of them aren’t as politically sophisticated as you seem to be.
Black in America? I call it po and beggin in America. For the life of me, I don’t understand how any executive would think that type of programming is a winner. Add in the “flimsy” soft voiced Don Lemmon and all you get is low ratings.
I think after the election when the tea party canidates have betrayed their supporters, politics in America heading into 2012 will be, if nothing else very interesting.
This is reminiscent of the fearmongering that went on about the “militia movement” of the mid to late nineties. What was that little bit that H.L. Mencken said about an endless parade of hobgoblins, all imaginary, again?
On an unrelated note, why is it that I am inclined to think that someone who is afraid to use their real name and utilizes a homosexual slur to characterize people is really more concerned about the programs being cut than they are about the contradictions of a movement’s participants? I always get a kick out of progressive clowns who cannot tell the difference between the neocons and the people who are serious. The Tea Party has both groups within it, which is why Paul Gottfried will ultimately be proven right. A good chink of it will most certainly be co-opted by the GOP, just as the Democratic party did with the now-largely-silent “peace” movement.

Tomorrow is some ALLEGEDLY IMPORTANT ELECTION between mostly white Christian warmonger-big-government statist Republicans and mostly secular-or-minority warmonger-big-government statist Democrats over controlling 4 trillion dollars of mostly unconstitutional and unnecessary spending. The Republican use the Tea Party enthusiasm to get out their vote and the Democrats use Tea Party phobia (eeeek racist nutcases!) to get out their vote.
Tomorrow is also the birthday of Carl Ditters von Dittsersdorf whose harp concerto entertained me the other day.

Sadly, he is long forgotten and neglected. So one day will Nancy Pelosi and Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney and Rahm Emanuel – but we might get sunk by their stinking deficits. Worse, who knows what monstrosities may happen if/when the whole House of (Federal Reserve) Cards collapses?
The main controversy in America’s outpost of The Statist Leviathan (Washington DC) is over the benching of quarterback Donovan McNabb:

which is a controversy at a higher level of intellectual sophistication than the TV comics who run political rallies.
Maybe I’ll just YouTube some Dittersdorf tomorrow night rather than finding out which band of criminal hacks gets to choose the next Speaker of the House.
Since we only have big government statist war mongering Republicans or big government statist war mongering Democrats to choose from, perhaps we should just stay home. I hear all the criticisms of the system and the political parties and agree with nearly all. But, we need to do all we can to fight the Democratic party and the Republican party is all we’ve got. The thing that gets to me is I hear deep and sharp observations about the lay of the land but don’t hear any ideas about what to do about these things. there are some smart people who contribute to this blog and I would be certainly interested to hear what some of these folks consider to be solutions.
