The picture above is the iconic 1846 lithograph by Nathaniel Currier entitled "The Destruction of Tea at Boston Harbor"
There is nothing quite as delicious as a know nothing know it all being shown up by a target of the know nothing. That is exactly what happened yesterday. In a speech to Tea Party activist Sarah Palin wisely warned them - as Lex has on this page a couple of times - not to “party like it’s 1773″… yet.
Since her appearance on the national scene, Palin has been roundly mocked and criticized by MSM BS artists, Hollywood (the land of know nothings if ever there were such a place), Demo-Dopes and Republi-Rat blue bloods as not being sophisticated and/or smart enough to hold a high political office.
Well after her speech to the Tea Partiers yesterday, Libs across the country thought that Palin had flubbed the date of our founding and meant to say 1776. Several well known lefties took to the tweet and lambasted Palin for what they though was a Slow Joe Biden like gaff.
As it turns out, only Slow Joe Biden can make Slow Joe Biden like gaffs - Look there's Stephen Hawking. Stand up Steve and say a few words to the crowd. The gaff in this case was by the dopes on the left. The actual Boston Tea Party took place on 16 Dec. 1773. So it turns out that, no the left isn’t as smart as a fifth grader. But OK it’s hard to keep a couple hundred years of history straight. Thank goodness we’re not Chinese or Egyptian where they have to keep track of several millennia of history.
But hey, take dad’s advice and look it up. Google 1773. This is the first thing that pops up. WOW! Ain’t AlGore invention the best? This Internet thing is so cool. Now, look right down the page to Dec. And there it is:
“December 16 – Boston Tea Party: A group of Americans, dressed as Mohawk Indians, steal aboard ships of the British East India Company and dump their cargo of tea into Boston Harbor.”
Unbelievable. Had these leftist dopes taken the 10 seconds necessary to look it up, they wouldn’t be staggering around this morning looking for a towel to wipe the egg the off their collective faces. One of the ignorant jackasses cracking wise about Palin’s apparent gaff was Gwen Ifill. She tweeted, “Sarah Palin: party like its 1773! Ummm” So when Ifill’s caught in her own ignorance, like whenever she opens her pie hole, ignoramus doubles down and tweets this, “Stand down everybody. I was quoting Sarah Palin from her speech yesterday.” So Gwen, what was the "ummm" all about?
Ifill’s last tweet proves that not only is she ignorant and lazy, she also has trouble admitting when she screws up. And what is with the “stand down” BS, Gwen? You stand down. You’re the meathead here. I’ll stand down when you admit you’re wrong and kiss my butt at Broad and High Streets in Columbus, OH at noon on a Monday and give me half an hour to draw a crowd.
Ifill’s an idiot running for cover instead of saying, “I guess I’m not quite as smart as I though I was.” And how great is it that this crowd is made to look like a bunch of jackasses by a woman they try to portray as not ready for primetime?
So you’ve got a whole bunch of Demo-Dope Homer Simpsons wandering around claiming to be soooo smart, only to be shown to be ignorant of their own history and too damn lazy to look it up.
No doubt they will fall back on the Demo-Dope line, “Palin tricked us into mocking her.” You know, like they did with GWB “tricking” them into supporting the Iraq war. In both cases it seems that the Demo-Dopes are so much dumber than the people they mock. Only Libs and Demo-Dopes can be tricked by someone they claim to be a fool.
