Bombshell: Palin Class Hatred Victim

What does the class hostility shown by the Obma Campaign, the MSM, and the Hollywood pinheads toward Gov. Sarah Palin mean to YOU? It means they also hate you, your family, and the people around you. When this news gets out, Barack Obama is going to start looking like a one-term president, a fate that America-dissing imposter richly deserves. (More on Wednesday about Palin Derangement Syndrome.)

The hatred displayed toward Sarah Palin by media people, Hollywood types, the Obama Campaign, and the political establishment is less sexism than class hostility.

I got the following comment (below this paragraph) on one of my blogs, and I believe this guy has hit the target right in the center. The people who turned out in great numbers to see Sarah Palin in Beaver County ("guns and God" folks) were largely from union families. Sarah Palin reminds me of some of the girls I grew up with in an unaffluent part of the Rochester, NY area, smart, good looking, very tough, and only marginally middle-class if that. Most of the people who have run for very high office since 1988 have been Harvard and Yale types -- and very wealthy. There's an unspoken rule that middle-class people, especially women, should not run for President or VP. If they are serious about their religious faith, that's another "disqualification." Obama is one of those Columbia/Harvard types I ran into in the academic world, individuals who really aren't all that bright, but the Harvard "shine" hides that reality. The sad fact is that 299-million-plus Americans (out of 300 million) have little or no chance of ever becoming President.

JamesD'Troy has left a new comment on your post "Why Some Conservatives Dislike Palin": What was apparent for me this past election was that the hatred towards Gov. Palin was based upon not only based upon sexism but a less acknowledged divisive issue: Class. The sexism shown towards Gov. Palin has been discussed, less acknowledged is that both Conservatives and Liberals despised her because she was essentially, a working class woman.

I've heard criticisms similar to those made towards Gov. Palin before, only in the UK, from upper class twits from Oxford and Cambridge. The dirty little secret that came out this past election IMO, was that this nation is as much divided by class as by anything else. Take a look at the reaction by the elitist MSM towards 'Joe the Plumber' or more recently, the Tea Parties. The message from MSM members like Charles Gibson (Princeton), Anderson Cooper (Yale), and countless others from NY, LA, and Washington could not have been clearer: Though they want nothing to do with small town Americans who are 'bitter and cling to their guns and God' they still want to rule them.

Note from Steve: Katie Couric is Univ. of Virginia (same thing). Much more on this issue for Wednesday's column.

Tea Parties: Rage WITH Action

As Jacquerie of WamToday (http://wam08.org) said, "Rage without action is pointless." If the Obama Administration's massive bailouts and "Stimulus" payoffs to special interests enrage you -- as they should -- then you must act. About 5 p.m. (EDT) today (Wednesday), I'll have a list of actions you can take in regard to the Tea Parties that will occur in many American cities on April 15.

We can't allow the Tea Parties -- the Second American Revolution -- to be one-and-done events. They must be a beginning -- and not an end. As the old saying goes, "Don't just get mad; instead, get even.

Eleven Actions for Your Local "Tea Party"

1. Contact as many family, friends, and political allies as possible and ask them to go as a group to the local Tea Party – tell them exactly where and when it will be, and offer transportation if you can;
2. Promote the event widely by calling into talk radio, sending letters-to-the-editors of local papers, and notifying local political organizations;
3. Take a half-day’s vacation (if necessary) and ask that sympathetic co-workers do the same;
4. Invite local political and community leaders (although they shouldn’t dominate the event, which should be a true grassroots undertaking);
5. Dress up to make the event as festive as possible – perhaps an Uncle Sam (or Aunt Sam) outfit, or wearing a barrel, or donning a “Lady Liberty” hat;
6. Make up (several) handmade signs, which will capture the attention of the local media;
7. Bring your children if possible and have them carry age-appropriate signs (such as the one that said, “Keep your hands off my piggy bank”);
8. Have card tables and sign-up sheets where people can put their names, addresses, and e-mail addresses, so it will be easier to build crowds for future actions;
9. Enable people to sign up to support their favorite pro-Tea-Party candidates (e.g., Gov. Sarah Palin);
10. Make sure as many people as possible can speak at the event by keeping remarks short and to the point (two-three minutes maximum);
11. Acquaint the people with organizations they can join, such as: TeamSarah.org, Wam08.org, Americac2C.org, and others.

Overall, make the tea party fun, productive, and the foundation for future actions.
