Tea Party has their first Congressional Caucus brought to you by Bachmann

Tell me exactly what you think I'm making up.

Which part of those claims do you not believe? I'm not going to spend all day finding links for stuff that is readily available to anyone with google for you because in the past when I do go to the trouble to bring you links you ignore them and act as if some quip is an actual response.

What point to take offense to? The virtual tea party that they held online? That they hosted tea party officials numerous times? Told people where to go to find the closest tea party?




So you won't be backing up your claims then. Dismissed...


Here I got you a few more.

I meant that you can point out any of my statements in that quote, your favorite one that you don't believe, and I'll get you proof for that. I'm not going to go through all of them though, so give me the one that you don't believe.

show me the tea party they "hosted"
 
That wasn't part of the quote. Actually that wasn't part of any of my quotes.

Are you talking about the virtual tea party that they had on their website?



1. "Fox news hosted tea parties"



2. "Fox News sponsored tea parties."




link?

And where was that in that quote? lol.


I understand that conservatives can't criticize fox news, but in this one instance you can't really make the argument that Fox wasn't toeing that line at the very least of covering the tea parties and sponsoring the tea parties. They ran that banner for a week straight on various shows, had numerous hosts, opinion and otherwise, ask for people to come out and join the tea parties, where you could go to find the closest one to you, held a virtual tea party on their website for those who couldn't drive out to an actual tea party, hosted various tea party officials like Mark Williams of tea party express numerous times to advertise their movement etc.

This is the quote that you wanted links and sources too. These are the examples that I gave as evidence that fox cheerleaded or supported the tea parties based on the way you look at it.

Use something that I actually said.

What you quoted is found no where in any of my posts in this entire thread. If you're going to quote something from me at least use an actual quote. It's dishonest to use something that I never said and put it in quotation marks.

Rough, I see you haven't logged off. Is your silence a concession? :ssst:

Some people step away from their computers at times Rev. If you don't like the fact that I'll address stuff whenever I feel like it the least you could do is act like a man about it. ;)

As for them running the banner, do you think I'm making the damn thing up? Do you think it's photo shopped or something? Are you trying to deny that they ran it? I think the existence of the banner is pretty good proof that it exists, lol.

You can keep posting those buckets but it doesn't mean anything, you know that right? :roll:

And once again you post some crap that I never said.

But, while your on the subject. Here's a clip of Megyn Kelly inviting people to go to fox's own virtual tea party.
Fox's Kelly: "you can join the tea party action from your home if you go to the FoxNation.com ... a virtual tax day tea party" | Media Matters for America

Kind of like killing two birds with one stone.

Just to let you know, this changing subjects and you picking out **** that I never claimed is growing old. I'd rather waste my time elsewhere, so don't bother making up any more stuff.

context is everything, It was about thier COVERAGE of a tea party watch your OWN link.....

Note she says you can "sound off ABOUT the tea party" or some such, it was not a "tea party" event other than a tax day discussion about the tea party, that yes they called it a "Virtual tea party" however, honestly indicates your smart enough to know the difference. dishonesty is pretending its anything else.


/facepalm

Sorry about that one, I went out to lunch and came back and responded and completely forgot the whole "opinion and otherwise" part of my post. That was my stupid mistake.

As for what your saying about the clip, it's not dishonest at all. They called it a virtual tea party and it was hosted by their website. You can take that as you may but it's pretty obvious what they meant, and megyn kelly was hardly the only one.

When you have media matters taking a 10 second clip is reading what you want out of it really the honest response here?


Do you have ANYTHING on this mysterious fox "virtual tea party"

She was driving people to thefoxnation site, not to a "tea party event"....

I
 
Lower taxes to what amount?

By reducing do you mean agencies, spending, etc. Social Security, military, police, fire dept, agriculture, roads? What does that mean? What services do you want reduced?

Act accountable to which people?

I think these are good slogans that many people agree upon, but nobody agrees on what they actually mean in action?
*whispers* Read the Constitution.

Are you trying to be a poet?

Very nice! :)

I heard that is the current Tea Party emphasis. But still a problem. If the constitution is so clear, why does its meaning has to be reevaluated on a regular basis in the courts? Don't hide behind the Constitution, how do YOU interpret the Constitution to answer these questions? Step up and give me your view, I won't call an individual interpretation wrong, but I'll call it an individual interpretation. :cool:
