Expose on the Tea Party Architects

If you can't shoot the message, shoot the messenger. If that's not possible then shoot any ol' random person on the street and announce them to be the awful message carrying messenger. Just be sure that that person is not someone important or related to one.

Look over there -> not here <-

Here's an article on the Tea Party movement by a real journalist.

Oh, because if that's your definition of what constitutes what a journalist is I take it you don't think Fox News and National Review are legit journalists either with all those flawed characters on their roster and content in their archive?

The article on the Pope was a tasteless on the part of Taibbi but he did come out and admit it was stupid and tasteless and clarified its intent. You are more than welcome to think him a moron but that still doesn't change the fact that he is a legitimate and credible journalists. I will admit it myself, when it comes to talking about Lord Oama and how he betrayed the left I think Taibbi is a moron.

p.s. Vincent Van Gogh was a crazy mofo but was a genius painter.

Taibbi is not the only one who has said that.

Nothing precludes them from being called morons too.
