New York Times Compares Tea Parties to the Weathermen

April 4, 2010

The Democrat/Media campaign to smear the tea party movement continues. This is the photo mash up the New York Times published last Sunday, comparing the tea party to the 1960′s radical group The Weathermen.

American Power:

The caption reads, “VARYING DEGREES OF RAGE: The Weathermen, including Bill Ayers, second from right, during the Days of Rage in 1969, and anti-health reform protesters in Washington on Sunday.”
No doubt the editors included that “varying degrees” qualifier will get them off the hook. But there’s no escaping the truly bankrupt moral equivalence NYT‘s claiming between a genuine domestic terrorist organization and a grassroots movement of conservatives, middle-class anti-tax activists, and an army of frustrated geriatrics. In contrast to a year’s worth of tea parties and town halls, the Moscow-backed Weatherman launched a series of bombings starting in 1969, totalling 25 attacks in all, as part of its war against “Amerikkka.” To this day, unrepentant terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn are venerated as social justice messiahs while today’s citizen tea party activists wind up on DHS intelligence reports as “right wing extremists.”

I didn’t see any mention of Bill Ayers having visited the White House several times since Barack Obama took office. Terrorists in the White House is perfectly acceptable, while law abiding citizens publicly airing their grievances with the government is extreme. Welcome to the age of Obama.

Gateway Pundit has a list of some recent acts of violence and intimidation by the left against tea party activists and Republicans.

    I gave up my NYTimes subscription, then I stopped getting
    it at the newsStand, then i stopped borrowing it, then i
    stopped reading it altogether, and now i make fun of it.
    Too bad it isn’t funny.
    They should make like ACORN and go out of business and
    reorganize under a different name … like The Daily Worker.
    Shouldn’t someone write a book about Frank Rich, why
    doesnt Al Franken write “Frank Rich is a big fat idiot.”
