Bill Clinton plotting tea party counterattack
American Thinker ^ | 2/18/2010 | Phil Boehmke

Phil Boehmke

The Statists are in full crisis mode these days. Patriotic Americans all across the fruited plane are coming together in ways never imagined by the enemies of freedom. The tea party movement is the expression of our abiding faith in America and the guiding principles of our Founding Fathers as expressed in our Declaration of Independence and our Constitution.

The Statists and their comrades in the Main Stream Media have unleashed a propaganda campaign against the tea party movement and it's participants. We have been called racists, nazis and often worse. Last week after the Tea Party Convention Dylan Ratigan on MSNBC said.

So, no coach, no game plan, and did we mention, the tea party has a bit of an integrity problem, as everybody from birthers, to open racists, to outright Nazis are actually on the team. And no one involved, including it's leadership, seems to mind the fact.

The purpose of this media barrage is all too clear. By smearing the tea party movement and it's participants in the most vile terms the MSM hopes to sway public opinion and thin the ranks of its members. Thus far the tactics of the progressives and their all too compliant allies in the media have failed to slow the juggernaut of freedom.

Now comes news of a new clandestine attack against the tea party movement.

Big Government has learned that Clintonistas are plotting a "push/pull" strategy. They plan to identify 7-8 national figures active in the tea party movement and engage in deep opposition research on them. If possible, they will identify one or two they can perhaps ‘turn', either with money or threats, to create a mole in the movement. The others will be subjected to a full-on smear campaign. (Has MSNBC already been notified?)

Big Government has also learned that James Carville will head up the effort.

Obviously, there is no love lost between Obama and the Clinton machine. It may at first seem odd that Clinton would rush to Obama's defense, but the tea party movement poses a threat far beyond the immediate goals of the Obama Administration.

The tea party movement could evolve into a new political realignment, one founded on a belief in limited government and less government involvement in the economy. The Progressive agenda, which has been painstakingly built up over the past three decades, could be left in tatters.

We have already witnessed the lengths to which the progressives and their MSM lap dogs have gone in their all-out war against Sarah Palin, so it would come as no surprise if they were preparing a covert operation against the tea party movement and it's leadership.

It is vital to the future of our nation that we keep the faith and that we stand up with courage and conviction to defend our American way of life.

The left are going to play dirty again! Well, hopefully, it will catch no one off guard. We need to bone up on their bag of tricks and be ready for this.

Their premise is that all Teaparty protesters are rightwing conservatives and GOP.

Let them.

We can power our homes with the conflagration as they go down.

I don’t believe this story one bit. Why would Clinton...and Carville (who HATES most of Obama’s administration) do his bidding?

Sounds like a way to get conservatives to attack the DLC and “moderate” Democrats.

I guarantee they have been trying to do this for quite a while now. It’s part of the Rules, Alinsky’s Rules that is.

This is a false flag op and/or they are trying to scare people away from leadership positions in the movement.

Nothing new here, really, but we do need to stay aware...

They so completely miss the premise of the Tea Party that they don’t have a chance.

YUP! They just do not understand that the Tea Party is a philosophical movement that wants to see states rights and the Constitution restored - as was said on TV this morning,, it is not a political movement.

“Patriotic Americans all across the fruited plane...”

Those homophones are tricky. :)

The movement has no need of "leaders."

From FReeper ThePatriotsFlag

Something special is happening with the Tea Party Movement of today. Of course people will try to gain control of it because it is a very powerful source of energy. But the concern that it is “not controlled” and therefore “doomed” is unfounded. It needs not be nor should it be confined ... to a leader, to an organization or to a specific plan. Such activity would nullify the greatness of what it has become to date and could grow to in the future. One needn’t worry ... one only need to join the energy, shun people who attempt its control and allow plans to be spur of the moment. With a leader, there is a target, with an organization, a counter-organization, with a plan, a thwarting of the plan. But as pure ENERGY ... nothing can stop it. Think of it as energy ... join it, and be a part of this historical change-making effort.

The collectivists and central planners have no idea how to combat the movement so long as it is leaderless.....there is no target.

Asymmetrical warfare is the way to defeat them.

Will the counter offensive include the use of cigars?

Clinton is the epitome of the corrupt career politician. That being said- since they have to PAY the people THEY turn out, does Clinton have that much money?

That maneuver only works if the target and the target audience buy it.

The target audience at this point won’t and will only be further enraged.

Besides, the Alinsky method works well on a socialist platform already in place. The platform must be well established as a governing power for Alinsky’s method to work. At this time, the system have in place is keeping the rats out of the cheese.

That is why they are so hell bent to establish a socialist government. Once that occurs, no further challenge can be made successfully to that governing power.

IOW, this ain’t China. Yet. They aren’t going for socialism, only full bore communism which is only another word for the elite ruling the landless serfs.
