The "racist" accusation against the Tea Partiers again
I briefly mentioned the excerpt below on DISSECTING LEFTISM but I want to say a bit more about it here. The comment is from the Left-leaning "Slate" and the author is trying to make the best of a bad job from his viewpoint.
"It's rarely convincing when Tea Party activists brush off attacks on the movement by claiming that the bad apples at their rallies are really agents provocateurs. That's just too convenient. Sometimes, the people who make you look bad actually are part of your movement. But a videographer at this weekend's Fancy Farm political celebration in Kentucky hounded a man wearing Rand Paul swag and holding up a racist anti-immigrant sign, badgering him to reveal who he was. The cameraman caught back up with him when, later, the man walked with supporters of Paul's opponent, [Democrat] Jack Conway."

So the infiltrator was caught red-handed, as it were.
The Tea Partiers are aware that anything the Left do not like will be accused of racism so make sure that none of their members do carry racist slogans. But Leftists are such intellectual midgets that the "racist" lie about the Tea Partiers is about all they can think of when they want to criticize the Tea Partiers. So they need that lie.
But even a big lie does need some oxygen to sustain it so, in a familiar Leftist strategy, Leftists themselves propagate racist utterances and blame them on the Tea Partiers. And you will note in the above quote that the Leftist author does implicitly admit that such frauds happen.
But probably the most interesting thing about the paragraph is the heading that its author put on it: "Tea Party Infiltration Done Wrong"
So rather than deploring the fraud he deplores only that it was not well done! That's a pretty revealing confession, it seems to me. It certainly reveals the utter dishonesty and corruption of the Leftist mentality.
And how come someone writing for "Slate" knows so little of grammar? "Wrong" should have been "wrongly". The midget shrinks even further.

We're going to be seeing more and more of this as we get closer to the Nov. mid-term elections. The Demoncrats, (ie: the hard-left and the MSM) are scared to death and they're desperate. They will be using every trick in their vast arsenal, such as one of their favorites, lying and forcing your enemy to have to defend himself, which always makes you look guilty in the "court of public opinion". It's an old trick, but still very effective, especially when dealing with weak Republicans and Conservatives who are too conservative.
The only way to defeat the left is to use their own tricks against them. Anything less will result in failure.
I think the shot on the grammar was a bit cheap JJR. We all know those crazy Yanks aren't that strong on the subject.
:-p
You see, it all comes down to the prevailing perception that it's OK for the Left to "do wrong", because that is what the Left stands for--the right to do whatever it wants as long as it doesn't hurt anyone. Yet the Right is held to a much higher standard because that is what it stands for. The problem is that the Left gets a pass because it is never held accountable.

Also, having control of the media is a huge advantage for the left. Far too many people still believe what they are told by the highly-biased talking heads on TV.
