More and more fun stuff about 2010:
..Fox has the list of donors, which comprises a set of interlocking slush-type funds that pay for the anti–Tea Party campaign. The largest of these is the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME,) which has kicked in a total of $9.9M in a single year to two funds that provide the cash for the non-grassroots movement. Yes — government workers’ money is being used to fend off Tea Party protesters.–
It seems that the Tea Party movement, once defamed and derided, now poses a threat to the liberal establishment, so much so that they are collecting millions to undermine it. Conservatives shouldn’t object to political speech — which this is. But there is certainly grounds to object to the chicanery, the lack of transparency, and the pretense that the opponents of the Tea Parties are themselves grassroots activists. They aren’t — this is Big Labor and assorted liberal-interest groups once again doing the bidding of the Democratic party. And if not for Fox, no one would be any the wiser.
In defense of our liberals, this is what constitutes “grassroots” in liberal-land. Being completely servile in mentality as well as rather lazy in effort (you think that the AFSCME employees of government are wellsprings of innovation and efficiency?), it takes uber-liberals to set things up so that liberal rank-and-file people can get going. There never has been a liberal movement which sprang spontaneously from the people – all liberal movements have always been the result of careful planning and lavish funding (where do you think the concept of “walking around money” comes from?).
As for conservative movements – well, there have been only two and the one led directly to the other, with a slight interruption. Buckley fueled the first conservative movement in the 50’s which culminated with Reagan while the likes of Rush, Hannity and TEA Party activists have created the second movement (yes, there have been conservatives long before – but prior to Buckley, conservatism was all about what you’re against; with Buckley, it started to be about what you’re for. Big difference; to counter-act liberal fascism, we now have conservative revolutionaries. Strange world, indeed).
We’ll see how this plays out – this is Liberaldom gearing up for the battle. They mean to smash the TEA Party and, at the least, hold Democrat losses to a bare minimum in November – confident that liberalism will eventually become the default position once they get 50% plus one dependent on government.
And we, of course, mean to smash them – to me, this is where we draw the line. We’ve let things slide – we’ve now got people actually advocating for government-funded sex-change operations: at this point, we either totally destroy liberalism or be destroyed, ourselves. And by “destroy”, I mean just that – we roll it all back and restore the Constitution and undo all the liberal idiocy…or lose it all, for good.
Great battle; well worth fighting – and I intend to be in the thick of it.
