The April 15 Tax Day Tea Parties protest across the nation was the kind of non-partisan event that united the nation once again. Americans from all walks of life: republicans, democrats and independents, young and old from all races voiced their disapproval of Congress and the Obama administration.
A new Rasmussen Poll reveals Fifty-one percent (51%) of Americans have a favorable view of the “tea parties” held nationwide last week, including 32% who say their view of the events is Very favorable. Thirty-three percent (33%) hold an unfavorable opinion of the tea parties according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. Fifteen percent (15%) are not sure.
While half the nation has a favorable opinion of last Wednesday’s events, the nation’s Political Class has a much dimmer view—just 13% of the political elite offered even a somewhat favorable assessment while 81% said the opposite.
The liberal media maliciously attempted to downplay the tax day tea parties as not being "an accurate representation of public sentiment," a NY Times columnist wrote.
More recently, activist/actress Janeane Garofalo mocked tax day tea party protesters calling them, "racist rednecks." Here is the transcript of her rant from MSNBC's Keith Olbermann's show:
"Thank you. You know, there's nothing more interesting than seeing a bunch of racists become confused and angry at a speech they're not quite certain what he's saying. It sounds right and then it doesn't make sense. Which, let's be very honest about what this is about. It's not about bashing Democrats, it's not about taxes, they have no idea what the Boston tea party was about, they don't know their history at all. This is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up. That is nothing but a bunch of teabagging rednecks. And there is no way around that. And you know, you can tell these type of right wingers anything and they'll believe it, except the truth. You tell them the truth and they become -- it's like showing Frankenstein's monster fire. They become confused, and angry and highly volatile. That guy, causing them feelings they don't know, because their limbic brain, we've discussed this before, the limbic brain inside a right-winger or Republican or conservative or your average white power activist, the limbic brain is much larger in their head space than in a reasonable person, and it's pushing against the frontal lobe. So their synapses are misfiring."
Insulting the American people by calling them "racists rednecks" and dismissing the concerns of hard working, tax paying protesters shows more than that the liberal media is out of touch, they've gone completely mad.
