Rep. Schakowsky (D-IL) Calls Tea Parties “Despicable’ and “Shameful”

Seems like the working Talking point to diminish the impact of the nearly 500,000 who participated in the Tax Day Tea Parties is to call the movement an Astro-Turf (Fake Grassroots) event. Nancy Pelosi related this to reporters. She stated the tea party events are being funded by BIG Business and New Corp. Anyone who has been close to the city Planners is well aware that there was no funding form outside sources and gathering permits, obtaining insurance, and providing equipment were left up to the volunteers at the local level. There has been no evidence presented that large corporations have funded any of the Tea Party Events.

The other talking point appears to be to call the participants uneducated and misinformed by those who would benefit by big business legislation. In addition some congressman are saying that these tax day parties are a direct attack on the Obama administration. Most of the tea party footage that is available shows that the participants are upset with congress as a whole and how government is involved in the free market system.

While Protesters in left wing groups get dismissed for violent acts because they’re ideology is in agreement with the left leaning Main Stream Media, The Tea parties are being called, “despicable and Shameful”. Interestingly enough out of the 304 tea parties that data is available for there was one arrest. Despicable and Shameful indeed.
