Doocy Claims Dems Demonize Tea Partyby Steven DTue Apr 6th, 2010 at 05:44:08 PM ESTHarry Reid recently made a joke about Sarah Palin having written crib notes on her hand (you remember those, right?) after she attended (for a generous fee I assume) a Republican fundraiser in Nevada last week. Here's what he said:"I was going to give a few remarks on the people who were here a week ago Saturday but I couldn't write it all on my hand," he said, as the crowd laughed and applauded. "You betcha."This rather tame attempt at humor did not go over well with the folks at Fox News. Apparently they had a bit of a hissy fit over Reid's rather harmless remarks from the women who recently said Republicans need to "reload" and who drew crosshairs on the Congressional members who voted for health care reform on her website:"Democrats have got to be careful about how they demonize and try to marginalize the Tea Partiers," [Steve Doocy] warned, referencing a new Gallup poll that found ideological and partisan splits within the movement. "A majority of Tea Party supporters are not Republicans," Doocey [sic] said.First Mr. Doocy, who knew Sarah Palin was as a member of the "Tea Party" (actually one doesn’t exist as an officially registered political party, it's a loose movement organized and supported by GOP astroturf organizations at best). So how could a mild joke about Sarah Palin's skin writing obsession demonize the entire Tea Party Movement? But more importantly, what right do you have to claim that Democrats are demonizing the Tea Party at all? Methinks thou doth protest too much. Not with the ranks of your fellow Fox newscaster/opinion maker/clown Glenn Beck who can't make up his mind whether Obama is a socialist, a fascist or simply someone with a deep seated hatred of white people? Or suggested that poisoning Nancy Pelosi would be great fun (stealing Ann Coulter's rancid comedy routine).
And I am not even scratching the surface of the demonization campaign Fox and other conservative media and politicians have waged for years against Democrats and liberals in which eliminationist motifs (i.e., "jokes" about murdering or exterminating liberals, Democrats, minority groups, LGBT communities and disabled people) were used to create a constant drumbeat of hate against anyone not white and conservative.
What a douchenozzle. What's his DU name?
