Will defamed Tea Party protesters sue McClatchy Co.? - ALAN KEYES

On March 20 William Douglas, a black reporter for the McClatchy news service, claimed that Tea Party protesters, demonstrating against the health takeover legislation, screamed the ‘N’ word at members of the Black Caucus as they passed through the protest sight.  Jack Cashill argues convincingly that the claim was a malicious calumny, later embellished with fabricated details. The report was clearly developed as a weapon for use in a shrewdly calculated and still ongoing campaign to thwart the political effect of the disgusted revulsion rising in response to the Obama faction and the elitist subverters of liberty they serve and represent.

With banal regularity these would-be party dictators trot out the increasingly laughable suggestion that anyone who opposes the liberty destroying, constitution shredding, posterity bankrupting, death rationing schemes of these supercilious, self-righteous fanatics has just got to be a racist. Even after years of NEA orchestrated diseducation, some people have common sense enough to reject this feeble-minded version of a formal fallacy recognized as such since ancient times. (If Joe is a racist, then he opposes Obama.  Joe opposes Obama. Therefore, Joe is a racist. It’s called affirming the consequent.)

The best way to find out is to turn their propaganda strategy against them by forcing them to defend the calumny with which they hope to carry out their cold blooded character assassination. One of the conservative public policy law firms should sue Douglass Williams and the McClatchy company for defamation, on behalf of the Tea Party protesters present when the Black Caucus members staged their provocation.

The rest of the piece is well worth reading.

Make them hurt. Make them hurt GOOD.

They are in Reichstag Fire mode, no doubt about it. They are trying to frame up the Anti Communist Conservative Counter-Revolution because it is getting too strong for their liking.

Keyes? No thanks. The excerpt was quite enough, thank you.

[EternalVigilance]

Absolutely.

Inflammatory Democrat media libel, born of deliberately provocative acts by leftist politicians and their willful accomplices.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Cmon. Get with the program. Win one for the team! We either hang separately or we hang together. Can't you see what is at stake?

Who cares if it's Keyes. What he says is the truth.

[EternalVigilance]

If you are willing to allow your personal animus to keep you from reading what are brilliantly thought out conclusions, that’s your problem. Have a nice day.

I don’t need to pull the lid off a sewer to know how it smells.

You have a good day, too.

[EternalVigilance]

You apparently don’t know the difference between a sewer and a water pipe. Glad you’re not doing any plumbing work for me.

As far as I can tell, most of the participants in the Tea Party movement’s authentic activities (as opposed to the ones the GOP hamhandedly seeks to co-opt) are motivated by a deep commitment to America’s liberty and to the constitution that serves and preserves it. They don’t oppose Obama because he’s black. They oppose him because he’s a throw-back to the communist Reds of the last century. He’s a reconstituted ideological fossil from a humanly miserable bygone age- like the dinosaurs in “Jurassic Park.” His thinking could pass for fashionable back in the 1930’s, when totalitarian socialists were all the rage in some quarters among America’s elites, with Hitler and Stalin still recognized for what they were- two sides of the same coin. But many Americans have long since realized that once fashionable old socialist cant doesn’t hold a candle to the self-evident truths that have been and must remain the firm foundation of the American way of life. They are timeless, ageless principles not because America’s founders were all knowing or wise, but because they had the decent humility to derive their understanding of justice and good government from a source that was, and is, and always will be old and new; ancient and young; ending and beginning, all at once and all in all. He is the ruler and will be the judge of the universe He made and governs still, the one Creator God.

What’s wrong with the excerpt? I think it’s a good article.

[Cyber Liberty]

I think the excerpt is rather good, and I’m glad I read it. I just don’t care for Dr. Keyes, is all, and apparently I’m just awful for thinking that way.

[trisham]

Nobody’s perfect. :)
