Pick the Most Offensive Tea Party Story!
Not that I’m the least bit surprised, but it looks as if various liberals and liberal media were having some sort of contest to see who could utter the most ridiculous, offensive words about the tea parties in which well over 100,000 conservatives protested tax increases, irresponsible spending,...
