Blustery Bette Midler’s not very good at making the Tea Party look bad

http://twitter.com/#!/BetteMidler/status/384681251493261312

Typical hocus-pocus from Midler. The “gun lobby” obviously doesn’t control the federal government. But we’ve gotta acknowledge that it’d be pretty sweet if tea-party took over the GOP.

Politico’s Roger Simon: ‘Racism came out of the closet’ at Million Vets March

http://twitter.com/#!/stephenkruiser/status/389786637393461248

As Twitchy reported, lefty MSM-ers were beside themselves yesterday after seeing a photo of a Confederate flag-carrying doofus at the Million Vets March in D.C. And, just like the breathless Salon, Politico’s Roger Simon somehow managed to turn one protester into a seething, racist swarm:

http://twitter.com/#!/politicoroger/status/389461693186990080

“Protesters.”

http://twitter.com/#!/ExJon/status/389785939909689344

What? No. Of course not! He knows that one guy doesn’t represent all the veterans who showed up to protest the ridiculous Barrycades, right?

http://twitter.com/#!/politicoroger/status/389591108805619712

He knows that veterans aren’t marching for the restoration of the Confederacy … which is why he reiterated that the Confederate flag proves the protesters are racist:

Ugh.

http://twitter.com/#!/RichardGrenell/status/389521901501960193 http://twitter.com/#!/TheCrazyOtt/status/389782414215880704

That would certainly explain lefties’ perpetual butthurt.

Let’s take a look at Simon’s brand of logic:

Well, Roger?

http://twitter.com/#!/yesnicksearcy/status/389787796719689729

It truly is amazing.

Here’s all we really need to know:

Hide your tampons, hide your wives: could these #RomneyRumors be true?

http://twitter.com/#!/whereishawkins/status/256143924345860097

We’ve learned a lot of things about Mitt Romney from scanning Twitter that we honestly didn’t know. We didn’t know that Romney wanted to ban tampons, for one. Fortunately, the hashtag #RomneyRumors has popped up to bring some of these lesser-known policies to light.
