You ain’t seen nothin’ YET! WISE UP! If Obama and his commie operatives can gin up enough CHAOS between now and election day 2012, I can see him actually declaring “martial law” and suspending the election. They NEED chaos in the streets to finally bring to fruition the agenda they’ve had in place for a LONG time. (Cloward-Piven; Google it.)

And what is the best strategy to avoid this CHAOS when there is a political party funding the antics and many media sources EAGER to cover the protests?

Contrast that with how the media either did not cover the TEA Party rallies or covered them ALWAYS in a negative light.

How The Cablers Covered the Tea Parties

We’ve been monitoring how the networks are covering the tea parties today (via TV Eyes). As of 6pmET, here’s how many times the tea parties have been mentioned by each network:

• FBN — 78
• FNC — 55
• CNN — 36
• MSNBC — 32
• HLN — 24
• CNBC — 17

During his report on The Situation Room, CNN media critic Howard Kurtz characterized the coverage this way: “Fox News sees today’s tea party tax day protests as a big story, CNN as a modest story and MSNBC as a great story…to make fun of.”

And unlike CNN’s reporter in Chicago, Susan Roesgen, Kurtz did not use the terms “conservative” or “right-wing” when describing Fox News, but did say, “MSNBC’s liberal hosts have openly mocked the tea parties.”
