Health Care for America Now (HCAN), which is backed by a coalition of labor unions and liberal groups including ACORN and MoveOn.org, organized the protests to target insurance companies and drafted the plan, which describes the demonstrations as part of its “insurance enemies project.”
…
The field plan says the protests should attract media coverage that “creates villains or enemies that serve as a contrast with our side; validates the need for affordability and the public health insurance option; [and] forces the other side to respond.”
Katrina vanden Heuvel’s Hallucinations

Hee hee…. the editor of The Nation is claiming that the folks at the 9/12 Tea party in DC were “tens of thousands waving Confederate flags, anti-gay hate signs, and shouting “White Power!” (In fund raising spam.)
I was there.
I saw a single confederate flag.
I saw zero “anti-gay hate signs”.
I heard one person screaming “white power”. He was on a street corner, as the tea party folks passed by. He was against the tea party, not for it.
I guess the means is justified when the end is sufficiently noble… in this case providing propaganda to school kids (read the spam).

Well, Clinton had problems with the meaning of “is”, a mere two-letter word. Obama has stepped up to three letter words, like “tax”. Rock on, Dude!

- Step One – edit out statement that murder … or even existence of husband is known.
- Step Two – complain that story assumes murder was committed.
Gotta love those “nonpartisan” organizations… especially this one. Heck Media Matters has even obediently picked up on Nancy Pelosi’s weird fixation on assassination… though rather poorly; JFK was killed by a Communist, after all… not an Evil Right Winger.
The problem with going to an event with 100s of thousands of people…

After all … DNC promises ‘rain of hellfire’
Then again, their version of “hellfire” is … twitter spam :
One of the tools is a Twitter button that can automatically tweet: “Hey @timpawlenty, quit lying about health reform. … #CallEmOut.”
Which sounds a lot more like “heckfire” to me.
Maybe Obama is the anticripes.

Acorn Tries to Cry “Foul”, somehow

Tags: acorn, obama nixon, Tresa Kaelke
Acorn issued a statement where they claim that their minion, Tresa Kaelke was just playing along with the investigative journalists as “defensive attempts to deal with a troubling experience”. It’s not at all clear why Kaelke allowed the “troubling experience” to go on for about an hour (the length of the unedited video, release an hour or two after the shorter version).
For that matter, it’s not clear what Acorn thinks it will gain by pretending that the full video was “hidden” for soem dark purpose. It’s publicly available online.
It would be nice if Acorn could name one of the “lies” they are claiming in the title of their page…

Full-on Leftie Racialist Meltdown (Wonkette Edition)

Tags: meltdown, Promise Keepers, race card, wankette, wonkette
Weird how many examples there are suddenly. It’s like the Borg Collective is broadcasting the “play racism card” to everyone’s implants at once. Here’s a sad-but-funny example from Wonkette (where she’s very excited to have found some Tea Partiers who got the wrong picture online :
… these pictures are actually from the Million Man March of 1997, an event attended by, ahem, colored people.
Not only did the Million Man March actually attract a million people, it was led by wingnuts’ second-most-hated negro person, Louis Farrakhan, a real black Muslim.
Frankly, there is nothing more embarrassing for a colored-hating Real American than not being able to tell from an aerial photo of an immense crowd that those people aren’t even white! This is why photos cannot be trusted, if taken from a distance.
Anyway, about 70,000 sad fat white losers carpooled to DC on Saturday, to whine about everything (blacks), and to add to their shame, the fake picture they’re claiming shows a million wingnuts is actually a million black men listening to an Angry Black Leader.
It’s like the author is tapping some long suppressed lava- flow of racial fantasy that’s been building underneath the rocky crust of their minds. “Black black black-tty-black black. Whitey-white, blacky white!”
Sad.
Update: Well, it turns out the photo in question was from a 1997 Promise Keepers Rally, not the Million Man March. Not that is fact will ruin leftie racialist fantasies, of course.

Kathryn Russell-Brown thinks so…
“It feels very O.J-ish,” said Kathryn Russell-Brown, the director of the Center for the Study of Race and Race Relations at the University of Florida, referring to the racial divide in public opinion over the guilt or innocence of former football star O.J. Simpson for the 1994 murder of his white wife. Surveys found that white majorities thought Simpson guilty was and blacks didn’t. Simpson was acquitted in 1995. “It’s deja vu all over again. People have staked out their ground: ‘It’s about race; no it’s not about race.’”

CNN’s most impressive talent : finding swatikas!

So, as part of my Jet Blue All You Can Jet Pass, I’m in Washington DC this weekend. I spent all day at the 9/12 protest at the Capitol, mostly wandering around looking at people’s signs and chit-chatting. I was there for an hour or two before seeing on swatika. Heck, I was even carrying a sign that asked :
Wait … where are the swatikas? … or at least Obama with a Chaplin mustache?
on one side, and :
Got Swastika? (The Post said they’d be here…)
on the other side.
Anyhoo, the second swastika I saw was at a Lyndon LaRouche table (what a surprise).
Now what do I see on their main article on the the various rallies across the country? A sign with a swastika. (The second, is a legit picture of one of the speakers in Louisville, though photographed in scary mode, from below.. at a weird angle. The third? Nuts that want violent revolution.)
Maybe all the boring people came to DC, leaving the violent psychos and CNN reports unattended?
More likely, the CNN template needed to be followed. Sigh.

Apparently, investigating an organization whose minions are advising clients on how to violate the law is too hard. It has been demonstrated that Obama’s “community organizing” pals at Acorn were willing to help an undercover reporter set of a brothel … with imported underage “workers” to boot! What does the Baltimore state attorney want to do? Prosecute the reporter.
