The media has humored Sarah Palin and the Tea Party fascist goon squad for ratings long enough. |
|
Carrying weapons to town hall meetings, racist signs, etc. Starting fights with supporters of political opponents. Vaguely threatening rhetoric from politicians that's on the borderline of openly inviting assassination attempts on their political opposition.
Will the media FINALLY stop making excuses for the extremist fringe of the tea bag movement and admit they are going WAY WAY too goddamn far with the rhetoric?
With a minority president, a terrible economy, and their overblown macho posturing about "second amendment solutions" to political problems, someone was bound to snap and take them seriously.
Sarah Palin and the rest of the media have been milking this "movement" for all it's worth, money, fame, ratings. Maybe when you are raking in money peddling this crap it's easy to forget that it's not a fucking game.
