Morning Joe gets full marks for reporting on the South Park business, pointing out the threats, the difference between the way Mohammad was treated vs Christ, the foolishness of pretending that what was said wasn’t a threat, and the extra censorship on the rebroadcast. All very important, glad to see it happen.

However it was put under Wille Geist’s “News you Can’t use” section.

News you can’t use? Let me get this straight, Bill Clinton tries to link the Tea Parties to Tim McVeigh, that is fine. Radical Islam who you might have heard has a bit of history, “warning” south park is News you can’t use?

I suppose I should take what I can get from MSNBC, ya gotta walk before you run.

Update: Glenn has the line of the week: “Those who have no backbone will do the bidding of those who do.”

If you are judged by your foes…

…then the tea party movement can be proud that Bertha Lewis referred to the movement as a “bowel movement”

…while proudly declaring herself a socialist. You can at least give her credit for the courage of her convictions, if not her good sense.

If you are a person who attended a tea party be proud. If the head of Acorn feels you are dangerous enough to insult in that way then you are effective and if the head of an organization as corrupt as Acorn hates you then you are on the side of angels.

Lets play a game, who wants to call their local congressman and get a comment on that statement by the head of Acorn? You can leave what they answer as a comment on the blog. Let’s see who has the courage of their convictions.

Update: No wonder Bertha has her dander up, As Michelle Malkin Tweets and Human Events reports they were cut from the government teet again today. How can a socialist survive without other people’s money? At least when I need cash from strangers I ask for it.

Monique like Wendy came down from Maine to attend the Boston Tea Party:

…bringing up everything I eat and drink, and doing a fair impersonation of a confederate soldier with his favorite disease. (After all it’s confederate history month).

Believe it or not my wife is even worse shape (different but worse) so regular posting will resume when it no longer hurts to look at the screen.

Meanwhile let me give you the video of the cab driver that both Barbara and I commented on this weekend. If the tea party people are wise they will have him speak.

This man is amazing.
