Yes, isn't it?  Everyone agrees that this was something that really has never happened before in American politics - which by itself would make it newsworthy.  There's really no feasible explanation  why the world's most Fair and Balanced News Network would not cover it. I mean, you'd think they'd follow their own slogan - "We Report - You Decide".  They had Obama right where they wanted him - in the lion's den without a teleprompter!

However, I bet you dollars to donuts they cover every moment of this event -



Planners of the National Tea Party Convention, billed as a coming together for the conservative grassroots groups who sprang up in anti-stimulus protests last year, announced late Sunday that they would broadcast main parts of the convention, including the keynote by former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin on Saturday night.

The organizers suggested that they saw the broadcast as a solution to some of the criticism leveled at the convention over the last several weeks, as sponsors and participants have pulled out and grassroots tea party activists have complained that the ticket price — $549 — is too expensive for members of a movement that holds fiscal conservatism as a core value.

Activists had also raised an eyebrow at Ms. Palin’s speaking fee, which reports have put at $100,000. Some former volunteers for Tea Party Nation, the for-profit social networking site behind the convention, have said that they resigned in protest over the ticket prices, and accused the organization of trying to profit off the movement.

And Tea Party Nation was criticized for limiting access to only those news organizations that it believes have given it “fair” coverage, a small group reported to be Fox News, the Wall Street Journal, BreitbartTV, World Net Daily and a few others, although organizers had said they were working to open up the convention to more media.

what's the over/under on jesus actually being fleabit?

How appropriate Sara Palin is the guest(paid) speaker at the Teabag convention.

I love hearing from her and McCain, the recent losers!!! McCain was awesome saying this isn't the time to repeal the idiotic don't ask don't tell policy and finally be normal... just a few years ago, he said, he would listen to and take the advice of the leaders of the miltary if they wanted to change it... Nows not a good time... that's a familiar Republican excuse for denying people rights or equal access... I'm just wondering, when would be the right time, to let a person serve this country? I also really, really dig Sarah Silvermans idea that anyone who opposes this ass backwards anti-gay policy, especially regarding marriage, to not get married in protest... she equates to not joinig a country club that used to ban blacks and jews... not very effective, but I still dig it... Remember in WWII, they wouldn't let blacks fight with white people, for the same exact reasons????

you bring up the most important point... even when certain walls have been torn down, the ideas and beliefs the people who liked them, took much longer to dissolve... It amazes me, that those who oppose gay rights, don't see how it's the same as racism or sexism that we've had to legislate to make these changes in thought that have followed...
I think a good example... I have a blackberry, people always ask, can I get it in a different color, but no one asks if they can get it in a different type of fruit... it's all about color... I've just started telling people it's my NegroPlantae... that's a NiggerApple on the street...

I see.  And the hundreds of thousands of non-terrorists
we killed (and kill) collaterally along the way...not your
problem, I assume.

Let's see...you're a Christian, you've said so many times...
in fact America is a Christian nation, according to you....what
do the basic tenets of your chosen faith say?

You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'
But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that
you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the
evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you
love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax
collectors doing that? And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing
more than others? Do not even pagans do that?

(Matthew 5.43-47)

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul

is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments
depend all the Law and the Prophets.

So...I guess you'll surely admit you're wrong
here, at least as far as God and His only
begotten Son Jesus are concerned.
