Tea Parties For The Party Of Sore Losers

No wonder Miss McConnell hightailed it out of the country when he heard about the Gingrich/Fox-sponsored hate rallies organized "against taxes" today. And no wonder dozens of right-wing politicians with an eye on future political careers-- from Haley Barbour, Jon Huntsman, and Mitt Romney to Eric Cantor and Sarah Palin-- are staying as far from these crazed and unfocused out-of-control expressions of every kind of discontent and Know Nothing hatred in the country as they can. Of GOP leaders only three, each a dead-end extremist-- seccessionist Rick Perry (R-TX), John Boehner (R-OH) and Paul Ryan (R-WI)-- are riding the demagoguery train to wingnutia today.

I'm worried about right-wing violence and terror-- and I hope the administration does something about it. If Fox incites violence they should lose their broadcast license and the inciters should face trial. These teabag hate fests are clearly part of the "resurgence in 'recruitment and radicalization activity' by white supremacist groups, antigovernment extremists and militia movements."

When I first saw the video below I didn't think it was that big a deal. I figured it was some kooky Ron Paul fan screaming about fascism or just some delusional dittohead who's stayed up too many hour listening to his hero's recordings over and over. But then someone told me he's actually a Fox TV anchor, right wing sociopath Cody Willard from their failing business network. Take a look:



The hate fests are attracting actual Storm Front fascists while Fox anchormen yell about Obama being a fascist because he's determined to lessen the dangerous income gap between Americans, an income gap that goes way beyond fascism into the realms of feudalism, plutocracy and monarchy. It should surprise no one that these GOP/Fox-events are filled with people who don't want change. That's what conservatives are-- people afraid of change. And that's why they voted for McCain. But they lost. Basically what we're experiencing here is another case of GOP sore loser syndrome. And now that the vote count in NY-20 has moved Scott Murphy far enough ahead so that he'll wind up as the next congressman from New York, we'll soon experience a fresh dose of their inability to deal with losing. In fact, they lost their first court case as well-- at the hands of a judge handpicked by the GOP! Let's hope the sore losers don't draw this one out as long as Minnesota.
