Breitbart TV: CNN Report-"‘Coffee Party’ Gaining Steam"
SHAME on the "Coffee Party". They should be more inclusive instead of a "Whites Only" club!!
Has anyone found images of that huge get together the Coffe Party had where 200,000 members 'showed up', according to NEWSWEEK?? I'd LOVE to see how white THAT crowd was as well, although I'm pretty sure I know the answer to *that* one--"pasty whites-only" faces near and far in the crowd that showed up at, with a single brown or black face scattered randomly here or there ...what location did they show up at again? Such a large crowd surely made SOME media attention somewhere!! I would love to have more PROOF of the Coffee Party's RACISM, than their OWN pictures and a CNN biased video. Let's expose-these JAVABAGGERS for the RACISTS they are!!!
>:-(
*(Mods, I couldn't find a 'satire' button...)
‘Coffee Party’ gaining steam?
To paraphrase ‘The Fast Show’ - are they ****!
Mostly white indeed. Dang whites!
True, we should start a Courvoisier party, that way we can get everybody.
200,000 huh? That’s a hell of a lot of America haters to have in one coffee club.
200,000????
In what lefty's fevered dreams?
I highly doubt that Newsweak can back up that claim with photographic evidence. Maybe someone calculated that they had a total of 200,000 gathered from coast to coast on the day they had their "Coffee Party".
Only the Tea Party can get that many people out to a single event.
Someone went to the California State Democrats meetings. Was 95% white.
They want the votes form the blacks but without the street money, blacks aren’t interested in politics.
The Coffee Party should pick a better name.
The History of Coffee
The Muslim world
The earliest credible evidence of either coffee drinking or knowledge of the coffee tree appears in the middle of the fifteenth century, in the Sufi monasteries of the Yemen in southern Arabia.[2] It was in Yemen that coffee beans were first roasted and brewed as they are today. From Mocha, coffee spread to Egypt and North Africa,[3] and by the 16th century, it had reached the rest of the Middle East, Persia and Turkey. From the Muslim world, coffee drinking spread to Italy, then to the rest of Europe, and coffee plants were transported by the Dutch to the East Indies and to the Americas.[4]
Syrian Bedouin from a beehive village in Aleppo, Syria, sipping the traditional murra (bitter) coffee, 1930The earliest mention of coffee noted by the literary coffee merchant Philippe Sylvestre Dufour[8] is a reference to bunchum in the works of the 10th century CE Persian physician Muhammad ibn Zakariya al-Razi, known as Rhazes in the West,[9] but more definite information on the preparation of a beverage from the roasted coffee berries dates from several centuries later.
The most important of the early writers on coffee was Abd al-Qadir al-Jaziri, who in 1587 compiled a work tracing the history and legal controversies of coffee entitled Umdat al safwa fi hill al-qahwa.[10] He reported that one Sheikh, Jamal-al-Din al-Dhabhani, mufti of Aden, was the first to adopt the use of coffee (circa 1454). Coffee’s usefulness in driving away sleep made it popular among Sufis. A translation[11] traces the spread of coffee from Arabia Felix (the present day Yemen) northward to Mecca and Medina, and then to the larger cities of Cairo, Damascus, Baghdad, and Istanbul.
Coffee beans were first exported from Ethiopia to Yemen. Yemeni traders brought coffee back to their homeland and began to cultivate the bean.[12] The first coffeehouse opened in Istanbul in 1554.[13] Coffee was at first not well received. In 1511, it was forbidden for its stimulating effect by conservative, orthodox imams at a theological court in Mecca[citation needed]. However, the popularity of the drink led these bans to be overturned in 1524 by an order of the Ottoman Turkish Sultan Selim I, with Grand Mufti Mehmet Ebussuud el-Imadi issuing a celebrated fatwa allowing the consumption of coffee.[14] In Cairo, Egypt, a similar ban was instituted in 1532, and the coffeehouses and warehouses containing coffee beans were sacked.[15]
Similarly, coffee was banned by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church some time before the 12th century.[16] However, in the second half of the 19th century, Ethiopian attitudes softened towards coffee drinking, and its consumption spread rapidly between 1880 and 1886; according to Richard Pankhurst, “this was largely due to [Emperor] Menilek, who himself drank it, and to Abuna Matewos who did much to dispel the belief of the clergy that it was a Muslim drink
We would be hard put to have indoor meetings, few buildings are large enough to hold all of us.
The media will NOT report this. Actually they will probably photoshop some “minorities” into the photos they do publish . . .
COFFEE PARTY=
Covert Operation For Fascist Enterprise Expansion
They got two hundred thousand people to sign up on the "Coffee Party" Facebook page. That's what Newsweek is trumpeting as "showed up."
For comparison purposes, the "MY SISTER SAID IF I GET ONE MILLION FANS SHE WILL NAME HER BABY MEGATRON" Facebook page now has 1,720,497 signups.

I don’t think anyone in history threw coffee into
the river to protest being over taxed.
Oh well, slow minds WANT TO BE OVER TAXED so guess we can give them a break.
That's what Newsweek is trumpeting as "showed up."
Man, these left-wing presstitutes are just pathetic.
BTW, interesting handle you got there. Bet there's a story behind that.
NY Times, Washington Post Hide Phony ‘Coffee Party’ Astroturf Roots — at the NY Times!
The Washington Post and The New York Times, both of which portrayed 41-year-old Annabel Park as a concerned citizen from Virginia who became the accidental founder of a new grass-roots liberal political group, Coffee Party USA.
In the articles, Park—who is identified as a “documentary filmmaker”—preaches “respectful and civil engagement,” even with the more successful source of her knockoff inspiration, the populist Tea Party. And in an online chat presented by the Post, she issues the following declaration:
We are purely grassroots movement, independent of any party, corporation, or lobbying organization.
Yet there was nothing accidental about Park’s anti-Tea Party activism; the Coffee Party’s roots are about as grassy as the signature surface of the old Houston Astrodome; and Park’s facade of cooperation is undermined by her “tea bagger” epithets on Twitter.
Meanwhile, her claim that the Coffee Party is “purely grassroots” and “independent of any party” is laughably rebutted by the fact that the registrant for the website was listed as “Real Virginians For Webb, 14461 Sedona Drive, Gainesville, Virginia 20155” until the information suddenly went private behind a proxy. That’s “Webb” as in Virginia Sen. Jim Webb, one of at least two elected Democrats for whom Park has actively campaigned (as evidenced by this campaign video, “Real Virginians for Webb”:
Uhh...thanks, I think I'll pass. I already showered once today, and I'm trying to save water. And I hate that whole de-lousing thing, too, ya know?
