As Dan Riehl points out, we've got a long row to hoe while people like Mitch McConnell are in charge of the Republican Party. More from Dan on the Republican Party's Permanent Committee of Not Getting It here.
On the subject of the Tea Party and the malicious charges of racism launched by Democratic shill groups like the NAACP, I would urge Tea Partiers to denounce the charges as baseless and move on. Part of the Democratic strategy is surely to put the Tea Party on the defensive and change the public focus from its comprehensive criticism of the hard-left policies of the Obama administration to an endless round of speculation on a spurious racial agenda.

There has never been a hint of racism at any of the Tea Parties I've attended. It doesn't help that the SPOX for the Tea Party Express came out with that outrageous fictional letter. Unfortunately, many people won't know that he was swiftly removed by the National Tea Party over the weekend. Sick of Mitch & Co!

How come you've got a black caucus but not a white caucus, or Asian caucus... or left-handers' causcus, or people who like Bob Saget caucus...?
ReplyDeleteThe best response to an ambush is to attack it, so your call to keep on the offensive is sound strategy. But there is something to be said for counter battery fire (as practiced by Breitbart, for example) to make them keep their heads down while you shrug off their attack and take their positions away from them.
ReplyDeleteBreitbart gets results, that's for sure!
ReplyDeleteThere's a great sign out there which goes something like "No matter what this sign says you'll still think it's racist."
ReplyDeleteIsn't a caucus part of a region in eastern europe? Oh wait....
ReplyDeleteThere is a Hispanic caucus and a Progresive caucus.
Michele Bachmann has filed the paperwork in the House for a Tea Party caucus.
