Tea Party Democrat Identified
The mystery is finally over.
During the Fox News Tea Parties™, Fox anchors and hosts assured viewers that the protests were not Republican nor conservative efforts. Glenn Beck and the rest of the Fox News team went to lengths to mention that the tax day demonstrations were apolitical that also included independents and Democrats.
Investigators were originally unable to locate any actual Democrats who had showed up at the Tea Parties but after an exhaustive probe of the participants, Mr. Elvin Kardos of Levittown, Pa was identified as the registered Democrat who attended the protest(s).

The light and lilting tones of the powerhouse hunk of conservative talk must have Hannitized me for it finally hit me that there was no reason for the FD, especially on talk radio.
I’d love to be able to tune in the likes of liberal hosts like Stephanie Miller, Ed Read more
What’s So Funny About Caroline?
There seems to be a bit of a whining sound going around the conservative talk show circles about how the media treatment of Caroline Kennedy’s effort to replace Hillary Clinton as New York’s Jr Senator is quite mellow compared to their dealings with Sarah Palin’s attempt to replace Vice President Dick Cheney. Why, they say, is there so much less scrutiny of Kennedy compared to the wholesale punching bag Palin became. How come no hard-hitting Couric or Gibson interview? Why hadn’t anyone pinned her down by asking Caroline what paper she read or whether she really thought the vice president was “in charge of trhe senate”…yet?
