   The crazed braying of liberals on the Internet is so funny. They are muddled and befuddled about the tea parties and as always, sink to scatology (rarely facts, and never “true” facts). At the Phoenix tea party yesterday, I talked to many folks. Had a terrific time. Lots of little old grandmas who are “mad as hell and aren’t going to take it anymore.” Also talked to two registered Democrats who hung their heads in shame that they voted for Obama. After we talked, I think they now realize that Republicans are NOT the devil (Nancy Pelosi is) and that being conservative makes sense. Whatever. I had a terrific time (my very first protest!) and feel energized. But this is just the beginning… let freedom ring!

   And Michelle, you’re an absolute inspiration. Thanks for all you do in your columns to bring us the truth and to promote the values of our founding fathers. I know you get a lot of crap from the Left, but you are loved and admired by many… it’s tough being you sometimes, I’m sure. Keep up the good work exposing the weasels in Washington!

   I’d never heard of Matt Taibbi before today, so it was quite amusing to read that personal profile someone posted earlier. Political writer for Rolling Stone and sports writer for Men’s Journal? Does he also write about the NFL for Ladies Home Journal, opera for Sports Illustrated and pro wrestling for the New Yorker? What an embarrassing bio!

    I was out of town when I heard about the goings on. Of course, in Europe, none of this was mentioned by any news outlets (Fox is rare as hen’s teeth here). You can be absolutely certain that BBC never even thought about mentioning the protests. I found out because, while driving through northern Germany, I found a veeery scratchy AM signal with AFN playing Rush.

    Don’t mean to be sexist here but, where I am from, we don’t talk about women that way – especially in public. Michelle, I would never advocate violence but anyone that talks that way about you needs an attitude adjustment..

    All of that said, basic psychology tells us that people tend to be more aggressive toward something or someone they are afraid of. Remember the way they attacked Mrs. Palin? It’s because she scared them – think about it, a politician that looks and talks like 40% of the populace – it might have shown how out of touch the Dems are with the real world – so they go on the offensive. Well, Tea Parties show that a significant part of the population disagrees with the Left Wing Agenda. THAT scares the he!! out of the Liberals – especially the MSM. So, they attack – using the most effective tool they have – willing accomplices with a worldwide forum.

    Every time some left wing group has more than 10 people show up, it makes the worldwide press as an act of civil defiance. The camera angle is played with so that 10 appears to be 10,000. However, let anyone who disagrees with the left show up with a quarter million and the MSM dismisses it as “put on by Fox”?? Further showing the disrespect the MSM have for Americans and the fear all Lefties have of an organized Conservative movement.

    Scores Killed, Hundreds Injured as Para-Military Extremists Riot in Boston Area

    National guard units seeking to confiscate a cache of recently banned assault weapons were ambushed on April 19th by elements of a paramilitary extremist faction. Military and law enforcement sources estimate that 72 were killed and more than 200 injured before government forces were compelled to withdraw.

    Speaking after the clash Massachusetts Governor Thomas Gage declared that the extremist faction, which was made up of local citizens, has links to the radical right-wing tax protest movement. Gage blamed the extremists for recent incidents of vandalism directed against internal revenue offices. The governor, who described the group’s organizers as “criminals,” issued an executive order authorizing the summary arrest of any individual who has interfered with the government’s efforts to secure law and order.

    The military raid on the extremist arsenal followed widespread refusal by the local citizenry to turn over recently outlawed assault weapons. Gage issued a ban on military-style assault weapons and ammunition earlier in the week. This decision followed a meeting early this month between government and military leaders at which the governor authorized the forcible confiscation of illegal arms. One government official, speaking on condition of anonymity, pointed out “none of these people would have been killed had the extremists obeyed the law and turned over their weapons voluntarily.”

    Government troops initially succeeded in confiscating a large supply of outlawed weapons and ammunition. However, troops attempting to seize arms and ammunition in Lexington met with resistance from heavily armed extremists who had been tipped off regarding the government’s plans. During a tense standoff in Lexington ‘s town park, National Guard Colonel Francis Smith, commander of the government operation, ordered the armed group to surrender and return to their homes. The impasse was broken by a single shot, which was reportedly fired by one of the right-wing extremists.

    Eight civilians were killed in the ensuing exchange. Ironically, the local citizenry blamed government forces rather than the extremists for the civilian deaths. Before order could be restored, armed citizens from surrounding areas had descended upon the guard units. Colonel Smith, finding his forces overmatched by the armed mob, ordered a retreat.

    Governor Gage has called upon citizens to support the state/national joint task force in its effort to restore law and order. The governor has also demanded the surrender of those responsible for planning and leading the attack against the government troops. Samuel Adams, Paul Revere, and John Hancock, who have been identified as “ringleaders” of the extremist faction, remain at large.

    I’m just ammused by the MSM’s attempts to down play the tea parties. Pelosi’s response demonstrated how clueless she is regarding what the public wants. If anyone is an elitist, it is those who think they don’t have to listen to the public who employes them. All are exposing the truth about themselves. There’s really no point in supporting a media which wants to tell us how to think while insulting the collective intellegence of those who attended the tea parties.

    I tuned in to msnbc last night for about 30 seconds just in time to see their ad for their evening line-up. They had pictures of all of the idiots on the screen, and a sorrier lot I have never seen. Chris (The Spitter) Matthews, Rachel (male/female) Maddow, Keith (potty mouth)Oberdope, Ed (dirtbag)Schultz and one more…I can’t remember. All I could think of was how good those pictures would look hanging in a Post Office with a Wanted sign underneath. The thought of actually sitting and watching one of those shows gives me a real creepy feeling in my gut, like I’m about to lose the contents of my stomach. When I tune into FOX News, it is like sitting down with old friends who I am very comfortable with. There are a LOT of us who feel that way, and that is why they have better ratings than all the other news programs COMBINED…in all the time slots.

    There is alot more to Matt Taibbi that should be mentioned. Taibbi has an obsessive fixation with columnist Tom Friedman. His hatred of Mr. Friedman is so obsessive that Taibbi is sort of like an internet stalker. In his articles, Taibbi ridicules the home that Mr. Friedman lives in and ridicules the car that Mr. Friedman drives. His critiques of Mr. Friedman’s writings are so catty and b _ _ _ hy that it makes you wonder what is propelling this insanity by Taibbi. I am guessing that it is the fact that Mr. Friedman’s books have made Mr. Friedman a multimillionaire and all Mr. Taibbi can do is whine and pout about Mr. Friedman’s car and house. Mr. Taibbi would probably love to change places with Mr. Friedman, but Mr. Taibbi does not appear to have published a successful book himself. So his attacks on Michelle Malkin should be seen in context. Taibbi is a resentful man who thinks that Tom Friedman got what Mr. Taibbi feels should belong to Taibbi.
    Taibbi makes nasty but catty insults about anyone who is more successful than he is (well, that is just about everybody).

    It is possible Matt Taibbi is using you for hits for their blog? Just sayin at the top you can see their fund raiser isn’t working out for them. If he attacks anyone high profile on the internet maybe they will get some financial support? I don’t buy most of what he writes it’s for his audience they like that sort of language.
