Demonizing everyday Americans
By Ken Blackwell

There appears to be a concerted effort among the political left and many mainstream media people to demonize and marginalize the expanding citizen-based movement known as Tea Party movement. This effort flows from both a fear of what these tea parties represent and a contempt for everyday Americans. But those ordinary citizens are poised to be the ones laughing when it’s all over, when democracy takes its course.

There seems to be a consensus now among the liberal elite when it comes to the Tea Parties. Senior administration officials deride them, as do liberal congressional Democrats. These elitists characterize the tea partiers as extremists, some drawing analogies between these ordinary citizens and right-wing militias, fanatics, and religious zealots. Some members of Congress are even saying that these Tea Party people are racist, which is pretty much the worst label that can be slapped on you in modern politics.

And many leftist talking heads in the media parrot this message, with their own biting editorial, adding that some in the Tea Party crowd are dangerous. Some talking heads, including some Hollywood actors and others who don’t seem to have any credentials as policy analysts but are nonetheless given air time, are really playing up the racism angle, and even suggest that some Tea Party attendees may be domestic terrorists.....

But... this is good because what this means is that everyday Americans are scoring points "big time" and the progressives are desperate... thus the accusations.

And what are everyday Americans doing to frighten the progressives so? They are simply getting up off the couch after a hard day's work and making sure they are being heard by the politicians... and for this simplest of constitutional guarantees... "free speech"... they are labeled everything other than a normal person.

But... this is really great... for what few realize is that this mad drive to control American's lives and resources... is bringing about a great awakening.

A slumbering giant is rising... and he's not very happy... and his weapon is the voting booth... and he knows how to use his weapon.
