Palin Recounts History Correctly, Libs Snobbishly and Incorrectly Mock Her

So what else is new? Just like how it doesn't matter what any Tea Party sign says, the establishment media will call it racist, just like how anything any conservative says, they're all inept and stupid. It doesn't matter if their facts (like names and dates-something totally foreign to libs) are wrong, in their tiny little elitist minds, they're right and everyone else is wrong. And I'm sure they'd love to tell you so.

I am of course referring to Sarah Palin's absolutely correct reference to the 1773 Boston Tea Party.

The Boston Tea Party was a direct action by colonists in Boston, a town in the British colony of Massachusetts, against the British government. On December 16, 1773, after officials in Boston refused to return three shiploads of taxed tea to Britain, a group of colonists boarded the ships and destroyed the tea by throwing it into Boston Harbor. The incident remains an iconic event of American history, and other political protests often refer to it.

The Tea Party was the culmination of a resistance movement throughout British America against the Tea Act, which had been passed by the British Parliament in 1773. Colonists objected to the Tea Act for a variety of reasons, especially because they believed that it violated their right to be taxed only by their own elected representatives. Protesters had successfully prevented the unloading of taxed tea in three other colonies, but in Boston, embattled Royal Governor Thomas Hutchinson refused to allow the tea to be returned to Britain. He apparently did not expect that the protesters would choose to destroy the tea rather than concede the authority of a legislature in which they were not directly represented.

The Boston Tea Party was a key event in the growth of the American Revolution. Parliament responded in 1774 with the Coercive Acts, which, among other provisions, closed Boston's commerce until the British East India Company had been repaid for the destroyed tea. Colonists in turn responded to the Coercive Acts with additional acts of protest, and by convening the First Continental Congress, which petitioned the British monarch for repeal of the acts and coordinated colonial resistance to them. The crisis escalated, and the American Revolutionary War began near Boston in 1775.

Yes,that tea party, the original one, that liberals apparently are having a ball making fun of her for. Them and all their little ignorant minions. And of course, no help from the MSM. Wait. Isn't Ifill part of the MSM? I think so. So there's your answer. If Gwen Ifill (the mediator of 2008's Vice-Presidential debate that had a financial interest in Obama becoming president) is this ignorant and childish, what are the odd her contemporaries will publicly correct her?

My God, liberals are dumb sheep. And through their collective laughing, it's pretty clear that they're ignorant about that too. Unbelievable that this has to be explained to them.

Sarah Palin, correct. Arrogant and ignorant liberals, just...brainless. See what I mean about their lack of knowledge concerning history? I guess they're so used to trying to re-write it.
