Are You, Or Have You Ever Been, A Member Of The Tea Party Coalition?
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/16/2009 3:25:58 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Somewhere, Joe McCarthy is smiling . . .

On today's Meet The Press, Rachel Maddow demanded to know whether Dick Armey was a member of a coalition with the Tea Party Patriots, a group she alleges to promote "violence." Moderator David Gregory joined in the cross-examination of Armey, head of Freedom Works.

I decided to watch for the first time in many years to see how ‘bad’ it was. If it was a numbers game, it was at least 3 to 1 leftists to conservatives. Every time a fact was brought up, the leftists changed the subject or stated something untrue...they lied. Maddow was insufferable, Dash-hole was a Dem talking points cliche, and the Gregory questions all came from a left perspective plus every out of studio guest was a liberal. My wife made me turn it off before I had a heart attack!

hey.. It’s the first time that I’ve seen it. I was going to ask you if I could email it ! You’ve written a powerful call to action for liberty and resolve! I, for one, appreciate it.

These are the ideas of our Founders. Hopefully, they may help in the current debate about liberty vs. tyranny. Please feel free to quote.

Gregory questions all came from a left perspective ...

That was the one that bothered me the most. They were all from the "left perspective".

With Tim Russert there was an actual curiosity some times - he was asking questions because he wanted answers. With Gregory it's a non-stop "gotcha" with Republicans and a snarky little "let me set the stage for you - aren't I sooo smart" for the dems.

Dreadful.

I used to watch it every week when Tim was there - I doubt I'll see it more than a few times a year fromi now on.

Hope Meet the Press can do OK with only half their potential viewers - cause conservatives are walking away.

So much for “freedom of association.”

Ybor City TH? Was that the one where the RAT party official slapped someone? Yes, slapped. The reports started out saying slapped, then AP picked it up as “pushed” and dozens if not hundreds of repetitions hit the net as “pushed,” but reports from the family characterize it as “slapped.” There is nothing more violent than a peace-loving liberal.

Geesh, WHY does Dick Armey waste his time on MadCow's show?? It makes no sense. It's not like they have a huge audience either.

IMO, all Republicans and conservatives should boycott MSNBC, just as so many libs boycott Fox News...
