Here we go again. Conservatives, America’s “real patriots,” have managed to make another mess with their Tea Party protest. Thank you Fox News. After I wrote about the 9/12 protest in September– how certain conservative bloggers wet themselves in reporting inflated attendance numbers (Michelle Malkin)– then used a fake picture to depict the scene, I [...]

How about a video montage of some good, old-fashioned American protest? I don’t begrudge the teabaggers their right to dissent, but their methods of protest leave a lot to be desired. Whose idea was it to create the “Hitler had great speeches too” sign, or the “there is an African lion in the zoo, and [...]
