Senator Demands Media Take Harsher Stance toward Tea Party
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 5 August 2011 | John Semmens

Posted on 08/06/2011 12:22:06 PM PDT by John Semmens

Arguing that Tea Party conservatives are “an impediment to the proper governance of this country,” Senator John Kerry (D-Mass) demanded the media stop “propping these nuts up.”

“It’s one thing for Democrats and Republicans to have respectful disagreements over how much spending or taxes should be increased,” Kerry said. “It’s another thing entirely when outsiders who have no idea how Washington works to interfere with the governing process by trying to impose their twisted vision of an America where government is denied the powers it needs to meet the people’s needs.”

Kerry criticized the media for “failing to point out that the Tea Party’s opposition to higher deficits, spending and taxes is ignorant and demented. I mean, treating the remarks of someone like Senator Paul as if they are serious contributions to the debate over our country’s future is irresponsible. If they aren’t going to get behind those of us who are taking a responsible position on the issues we may need to look at implementing a greater degree of regulatory oversight on what they broadcast.”

In related news, the Obama Administration announced a new initiative against online extremism. “As events of the last week have shown, anti-government extremists were nearly successful in their bid to prevent an increase in the debt ceiling,” observed Press Secretary Jay Carney. “This type of terrorism is exacerbated by virtually costless communication over the Internet and Twitter. The President’s approval of a stepped up surveillance of traffic in these media will enable a more timely and forceful intervention to suppress this threat in the future.”

If I was in a political party that thrives on demogoging George W. Bush, and I got the starch whipped out of my running against George W. Bush...I would just shut up.

Hey John...thanks to you and your wife, I haven't touched any Heinz product since you ran for office. Hunts Ketchup tastes better anyway, they just don't advertise as much. For that matter, most store brands taste better than Heinz to me.

Had he stopped there he would have been remotely American. The next couple words proved him a Communist and anything ‘but’ American.

John, go back to throwing other people’s medals over fences. People today need a good visual to see your stupidity for what it is.

I no longer can discern these sorts of satire. It is only after I read the link that I can figure out that is indeed satire.

Hey, Mr. Heinz, do you mean that same media that did such a pathetic job of looking into that “decorated Viet Nam war hero” that backed you and almost saw you placed in the WH and who turned out to be a complete fraud?

Do you mean THAT media?

Well guess what, they are already doing everything they can to destroy not only the TEA party, but Palin, Bachmann, Perry, and any other conservative that they think has half a chance of beating the commie rat bastard that the DNC selects to be their next presidential candidate.

Poor you and poor leftists, though, that they can’t just throw them into one of Mao’s prisons, which is what you consider “doing their job.”

Oh you mean like when Ron Paul exposed the federal reserve giving 16 trillion dollars to banks foreign and domestic. Is that how Washington works. Keep the public in the dark about how Washington wastes their hare earned money.

They are shooting that bullet far to soon and will backfire spectacularly. By the election this will have only brought more people to the Tea Party

Kerry (the gigolo) and Gore(the bore), the two gifts that keep on giving.

The more Kerry talks about anything the more American people see the liberals as the true idiots they are. Maybe we should all mail Kerry some tea and tell him to throw it into Boston Harbor for us.

Are we sure this is satire; sounds awfully close to what is going on to me. Kerry is the #1 nut case from the #3 nuthouse (California is #1 and New York is #2).

As a cornered rat and an imploding narcissist, Obama may become unpredictable.

He might even be frightened into doing something radically positive, like replacing Geitner with Ron Paul...

;-)

Now that would be fun to watch...

Kerry: Tea Party conservatives are “an impediment to the proper governance of this country”.

Now let me think real hard here...oh, didn’t I read somewhere that the government in this country derives its power FROM THE CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED? He apparently has no concept that the people get to decide the size and scope of the federal government. Just wait till 2012, and he will really be squealing.

Kerry provides another opportunity for me to promote Sarah Palin for president. We don't care how "things work" in DC. Kerry and the rest of the Establishment Elite have run our great nation into the ground. Sarah Palin and Tea Party patriots are not going to play by their rules. We're taking over. GO TO HELL KERRY, YOU MARXIST BASTARD.
