Broad Brushes Paint Wide Swaths - II

"... Couple that with spitting on black congressmen..."

For the sake of argument, let's assume that one or two people did spit on a black congressman (I don't believe it and there was never any allegation of a mass spittle fest). 

Since it's Friday and I'm sure that you've had a hard week working to pay Uncle Sam, I'll give you 100 words to explain why that should be an indictment of the entire Tea Party, which has millions of members?

When the Unabomber blew up people and buildings, the environmentalists said that he was not representative of the environmental movement or all environmentalists and neither it nor they should be condemned for his actions.

When Major Hassan killed 14 and injured dozens while shouting "Allahu Akbar," Obama, the Left, CAIR, you, etc., but I repeat myself, all said that he was not representative of Islam or of the 1+ billion Muslims on the planet and neither the Muslim faith nor Muslims, in particular, should be condemned for his actions.

When Umar Farouk Abulmuttalab tried to blow up a jet full of passengers over Detroit, Obama, the Left, CAIR, you, etc., but I repeat myself, all said that he was not representative of Islam or of the 1+ billion Muslims on the planet and neither the Muslim faith nor Muslims, in particular, should be condemned for his actions.

When Faisal Shahzad tried to car bomb Times Square, Obama, the Left, CAIR, you, etc., but I repeat myself, all said that he was not representative of Islam or of the 1+ billion Muslims on the planet and neither the Muslim faith nor Muslims, in particular, should be condemned for his actions.  (He was also said to be a victim of the white man's subprime mortgage scam.  Boo-hoo!)

When Mark Berndt was arrested for molesting children and spoon-feeding his young pupils his own semen, the Left and unions, but I repeat myself, said that he was not representative of public school teachers and public school teachers and teachers' unions should not be condemned for his actions.

Just your regular, run-of-the-mill, middle class, public school teacher and union member.  /s

When veteran gay rights advocate, Larry Brinkin, who worked for the San Francisco Human Rights Commission before his retirement in 2010 and was honoured by the city with a week-long celebration, was found to be in possession of tonnes of child pornography and charged with felony possession and distribution of child pornography, Progressives and the gay community said that he was not representative of all gays and the gay community should not be condemned for his actions.

Yet...

When a nut and recent member of a centre-left party in Norway, who happens to believe in things like the state seizure of corporations to battle global warming, the social welfarism of Scandinavia and Japan, Western atheists like myself are actually Christians (eyeroll), goes on a rampage and kills nearly 80 people, it's the Tea Party's fault.

Soooommmmebody at The Huffington Post didn't read Breivik's manifesto!

“I’m not going to pretend I’m a very religious person as that would be a lie. I’ve always been very pragmatic and influenced by my secular surroundings and environment…Religion is a crutch for many weak people and many embrace religion for self serving reasons as a source for drawing mental strength…Since I am not a hypocrite, I’ll say directly that this is my agenda as well."*

- Ander Behring Breivik

When a registered Democrat paranoid schizophrenic, who became obsessed with Congresswoman Gabby Giffords in August 2007 long before 99.5% of the country had ever heard of Governor Sarah Palin and prior to the birth of the Tea Party, shoots Giffords and nearly 2 dozen others, it's the fault of the Tea Party, libertarians, conservatives, Republicans, etc.  

When census worker, Bill Sparkman, a registered Democrat, hanged himself in an insurance scam, the Left blamed the Tea Party, libertarians, conservatives, Republicans, and "anti-government types," etc. 

"And, of course, with the confirmation from the coroner today that the word “Fed” was written across Mr. Sparkman‘s chest and then this new information about the I.D. being taped to his otherwise naked body at the time, this is what‘s leading us to worry that he was killed in fact because he was a federal employee... While you were covering this story in Kentucky, I understand that you found a strong suspicion of government generally among people who live in that area.  And, of course, you can‘t generalize everybody who lives in a particular county, but what can you tell us about the overall political atmosphere there?..."**

- Rachel Maddow, 25 September 2009

When  Joe Stack flew a plane into the IRS building in Austin, Texas, the Left blamed the Tea Party, libertarians, conservatives, Republicans, and "anti-government types," etc., even though the man left a manifesto wherein he ranted against George W Bush, demanded single-payer healthcare, railed against the Catholic Church, and quoted Karl Marx.

When Major Nidal Hasan murdered 14 and injured more than 3 dozen at Fort Hood while shouting "Allahu Akbar!" the Left blamed the Tea Party, libertarians, conservatives, Republicans, and "anti-government types," etc., even though the President, government, and MSM knew that Hasan had nothing whatsoever to do with anything on the Right, the incident was one of terror and, intentionally, allowed the rumours and accusations that the shooter was a Tea Partier, Tim McVeigh-wannabe because none wanted to admit the Islamic angle and all wanted -- desperately -- to pin the atrocity on the Right.  The Left went so far as to speculate on social media that the shooter was a “RWNJ.” In fact, it was a Muslim nutjob.

When James J Lee took hostages at the headquarters of the Discovery Channel in Silver Springs, Maryland, the  Left blamed the Tea Party, climate-change deniers, libertarians, conservatives, Republicans, and "anti-government types," etc., even though he was a radical environmentalist, member of the Cult of Gaia, and former intern at the network, who had made it quite clear -- at an ever more hysterical pitch -- that he was upset that Discovery had not done enough to combat global warming.

When Dr Amy Bishop went on a rampage in Huntsville, Alabama, and killed 4 co-workers, the Left blamed the Tea Party, libertarians, conservatives, Republicans, and "anti-government types," etc., even though she was a rabid Obama fan and well-known Progressive.

When a Muslim cabbie in New York picked up a drunken Michael Enright, who then proceeded to ask if the driver was a Muslim -- and after receiving an answer in the affirmative -- stabbed him, the Left blamed Islamophobes, anti-GZM protesters, the Tea Party, libertarians, conservatives, Republicans, and "anti-government types," etc., even though the defendant was for the Cordoba House, worked for the New York City-based Intersections International, which is a "global initiative dedicated to promoting justice, reconciliation and peace across lines of faith, culture, ideology, race, class, national borders and other boundaries that divide humanity, and had just returned from Afghanistan where he had donated his time making a film promoting the interaction between the American troops and the Afghans.

When John Patrick Bell picked up his gun and shot up the Pentagon, the Left blamed the Tea Party, libertarians, conservatives, Republicans, and "anti-government types," etc., even though he was a 9/11 Truther, anti-war protestor, hated George W Bush, supported drug decriminalisation and President Obama.

When a 24 year-old man, who supposedly was dressed as The Joker, shoots up a movie theatre during the first screening of a Batman movie, where the antagonist closely resembles an Occupier, it's gotta be a Tea Party.

Not only are you guys hypocrites, but your logic and consistency are non-existent.


Finally, unlike you and Rep Cleaver, I do have evidence:

* While the media was rushing to define Anders Behring-Breivik as a Neo-Nazi, white supremacist, Christian, Tea Party wannabe, I actually read his manifesto and posted an "exclusive interview" within 24 hours of the Norwegian massacre.  Throughout the manifesto, Breivik, essentially, interviews himself and answers the questions that the MSM were erroneously declaring.

** More leftys accusing the Tea Party, libertarians, conservatives, Republicans, and "anti-government types," etc., of killing Bill Sparkman because he worked for the Federal government:

• The Democratic Underground quickly posted a ‘Handy Guide to how Republicans and Fox News are responsible for Census worker being hanged'.

• Liberal bloggers were quick to accuse ‘right wing zealots' trying to ‘take their country back.

• Time chalked it up to government distrust, a sentiment fanned by ‘talk media, tea parties and white-hot town-hall meetings'.

• The Huffington Post immediately assumed this was a case of right-wing paranoia.

• True/Slant opined that the body of Sparkman should be shipped to Glenn Beck.

• Think Progress pointed the finger at Michelle Bachman and her ‘inflammatory and fear-mongering rhetoric against the Census'.

• New York Magazine linked the death to that of ‘some wide-eyed, hysterical woman' named Michelle Bachman. (The irony in this is that the reference to a wide-eyed, hysterical woman was made in an article mentioning Nancy Pelosi).

Guilt By Association - Louis XIV

All the cash on the barrelhead and get on the floor
And all the rest of you, away from the door
And everything that you ever thought would come true
I've got news for you

All the cash on the barrelhead
You never thought you'd be doing this ever
I don't know why you think you can talk to me
In such an uncivil tone

As you peel back the skin from an orange
Remember how you got all of this?
Well, all of this
Is never ever coming true
There's nothing you can do to change it
You don't have to do the crime to do the time
It's just guilt by association

I've been thinking to myself
There's something we should be afraid about
Are you starting to figure out
That you're never going home?
Never going home

All alone
But from what I see fit
There's nothing you can do to change it
You don't have to do the crime to do the time
It's just guilt by association

All alone
But from what I see fit
There's nothing you can do to change it
You don't have to do the crime to do the time

There's nothing you can do to change it
You don't have to do the crime to do the time
It's just guilt by association

I'll stop you right here
I've got something to say
Everything they deserve today
Is going to come true
How 'bout you?

No, you never thought you'd be
In this place right here where we're at
Well, there's something you must confront right now, now

Well, don't you wish you could change me?
Don't you wish you could change the way I feel?
Don't you wish you could look into my eyes
And make me feel?
You're going to make me feel

It's just guilt by association
