Clinton Plotting Tea Party Counterattack BIG GOVERNMENT By Capitol Confidential on town hall protests Last week, former President Clinton was rushed to the hospital in New York for an emergency heart operation. Medical experts said the procedure was "relatively routine" and predicted Clinton would make a full recovery and be back to his regular schedule soon. To the public, at least, that schedule revolves chiefly around earthquake relief efforts in Haiti. In fact, some Clinton associates cited the work in Haiti as exacerbating his heart condition. Clinton money man, Terry MacAuliffe, even noted that Clinton's Haiti work continued right up until the operation: >>> Democrat colleague Terry McAuliffe said Mr Clinton had participated in a conference call on earthquake relief efforts as he was wheeled into the operating theatre.<<< We'll take Terry's word on that. But, Big Government has learned of at least one other conference call/meeting around this time. A meeting of former Clintonistas and senior Democrat political operatives to coordinate a push-back to the burgeoning tea party movement. Consider it a Democrat party relief effort. When tea party, 9/12 and townhall protests and rallies first erupted on the national scene, they were derided by national politicos as astroturf or a small fringe movement. Lefty journalists at MSNBC, CNN and elsewhere laughed away the movement with derogatory, pornographic references. Then, Scott Brown won election to the U.S. Senate from Massachusetts. No one is laughing anymore. In fact, Democrats are facing political annihilation this November. Not only do Democrats face the possibility of losing their congressional majorities, massive losses in state house races could jeopardize redistricting next year and set back the progressive agenda for at least a decade. So, the Clinton Empire is planning to strike back. Big Government has learned that Clintonistas are plotting a "push/pull" strategy. They plan to identify 7-8 national figures active in the tea party movement and engage in deep opposition research on them. If possible, they will identify one or two they can perhaps 'turn', either with money or threats, to create a mole in the movement. The others will be subjected to a full-on smear campaign. (Has MSNBC already been notified?) Big Government has also learned that James Carville will head up the effort. Obviously, there is no love lost between Obama and the Clinton machine. It may at first seem odd that Clinton would rush to Obama's defense, but the tea party movement poses a threat far beyond the immediate goals of the Obama Administration. The tea party movement could evolve into a new political realignment, one founded on a belief in limited government and less government interference in the economy. The Progressive agenda, which has been painstakingly built up over the last three decades, could be left in tatters. As the Clinton's know, "politics ain't beanbag." Expect the counterattack soon. Don't say you haven't been warned.

"How many libtards demanded the birth certificate of Trig, claiming that he wasn't Todd and Sarah's real son?" First I've heard of it, and you KNOW I'm a big libtard.. Should we report Ten to Palin for saying retard? Oh wait.....he said "libtard". I bet she would like that one. Never mind.

There have been a lot of rumors floating around Alaska over the past year or so. What kicked it off is when Sarah announced she was 7 months pregnant and took everyone by surprise because she wasn't noticeably pregnant. Alaska might have a lot of area, but it is sort of short on people. Like any smallish population, they gossip. When Trig was born, the rumor started that it was really Bristol's kid. This was bolstered by the fact that Bristol abruptly changed schools and went to live with an aunt in Anchorage to go to school there. She then contracted mono and was out 4 or 5 months due to that. During which time her brother was born." I think genetic testing is called for the settle the question. Message 24903321
