The Masses Rise Up
IBD Editorials ^ | August 5, 2011 | Staff

Posted on 08/05/2011 5:33:27 PM PDT by Kaslin

Mudslinging: Al Gore says we need an "American Spring" to match the dubious Arab Spring. If his liberal friends stopped calling the Tea Partyers terrorists, they might realize that our uprising is a Tea Party Summer.

Former Vice President Al "massive carbon footprint" Gore has peddled an awful lot of nonsense, much of it dressed up in slick Hollywood packaging. The dishonest animation of man-made global warming sinking Florida into the Atlantic Ocean in his film "An Inconvenient Truth" comes to mind.

Now Gore tells a once-prominent left-wing TV host that "we need to have an American Spring ... nonviolent change, where people from the grass roots get involved again."

According to Gore, "our democracy has been withering on the vine" and "the only thing that can get our country back on the right track" is if "the people who care about the values that this country was based on will rise up and get much more involved in the democratic process."

Leave aside the fact that the "Arab Spring" that President Obama's foreign policy has produced could end up transforming U.S. friends such as Egypt into Islamofascist terror states. Fact is, what Gore is calling for — nonviolent, grassroots activism by people devoted to the values of the Founding Fathers — describes the Tea Party, well, to a T.

Might not be a totally bad idea -

If we have an “American Spring” version of the “Arab Spring” will we be able to replace our crooked president, throw him in jail, and prosecute him like Egypt is doing with theirs?

If so, I know many patriotic Americans who would be interested.

We could very well see even bigger tea party gatherings this fall coming.

Why do I get the idea that Stumpy’s idea of a nonviolent uprising is akin to Jews getting in cattle cars without resisting?

Hey Al, have you been living on another planet the last two years? The Tea Party is the American Spring of Fresh Air! Our numbers are increasing daily and we are ready for the political War of 2012! It will live in infamy as the year we watered the tree of Liberty.

I would count on it, unless they are banned because of the reichstag fire type incident that is probably being planned now.

Translation to what I had just said: the protests will happen, one way or another.

*** oh, I thought this was about that fair in wisconsin. ***

Yeah. That's AlBore's 'american spring'. And it's springing out all over the USA.

The odd thing is (/s) I had to click four links to find out which 'youths' were creating the havoc. But like I expected, it was those darn Amish kids again.

They really need to lay off the coca-cola and all that sugar and caffeine.

(sorry for the day late comment. I don't like them myself)
