'Malice in Wonderland' Rewrite has Tea Party led by 'Mad Hatter' Bachmann

The left and its media allies have systematically reduced Tea Party members to caricatures, calling them everything from "bigots" to "racists" to "terrorists," hoping to make something stick. The latest installment is a rewrite of the famous story tale "Alice in Wonderland," in which their "Mad Hatter" leader is none other than GOP presidential contender Michele Bachmann.

TBTM Media, the authors of "Going Rouge: The Sarah Palin Rogue Coloring & Activity Book" have unveiled their latest attack on conservatives with, "Malice in Wonderland: A Tea Party Fable," in which they proudly claim that they have rewritten the Lewis Carroll classic to reflect "a bizarro world populated by Tea Party crazies!"

Story Continues Below Ad ↓

Every conservative leader and commentator is excoriated in this tale, from Republican front runner Michele Bachmann as the Mad Hatter to Queen of Hearts Sarah Palin and even the "metaphorically challenged phallic symbol" Andrew Breitbart, as The Caterpillar. Ann Coulter stars as The Duchess, Michelle Malkin as her "shrieking ranchor pig baby," and Glenn Beck, who "scribbles madly on his Chalkboard" as the Match Hare.

The story, which can be purchased in book form, is fully illustrated with a cover drawing of Bachmann displaying her "crazy eyes" while wearing a Gadsden "don't tred on me" top hat in front of a misspelled sign that reads "Kik Him Out!" This attack on Bachmann follows a recent media firestorm, when an intentionally unflattering photo of her appeared on the cover of Newsweek magazine with the title "Queen of Rage."

TBTM author and "Malice in Wonderland" writer Julie Sigwart appears frequently on the unhinged lefty blog Daily Kos and is the author of "Going Rouge: The Sarah Palin Rogue Coloring & Activity Book." The book portrayed the former governor as a pistol packing, cleavage baring character, with activities such as "match lipstick to pigs." The book was featured in the Los Angeles Times, Entertainment Weekly, and on the "Today" show.

As the Culture and Media Institute has documented, the left takes a no-holds-barred approach to attacking conservative figures, and especially conservative women.

I guess it's time to watch

I guess it's time to watch the "View" and Bill Maher to remind me that it's conservatives that are full of hate, racism, and bigotry. I keep forgetting that for some reason.

Here be some sane ideas from

Submitted by ant on Tue, 08/23/2011 - 11:55am.

Here be some sane ideas from the left;
a) Children are sexual beings, they are never too young to learn of anal pleasures.

b) Dead leaves on the floor of forests are increasing CO2 levels, therefore, yes, TREES are causing globa...climate change.

c) We need to sell guns to mexican drug cartels, that way we'll know if they're bad people.

d) Let's borrow money that we have to pay back and give it to terrorist groups that will only pay us back with hatred and violence.

e) Let's shut off water to farms and remain dependent on foreign oil because we found a mouse or non-indigenous anchovy.

f) The country suffers record, prolonged unemployment, so let's encourage illegal immigration and drop buckets of money into government projects.

g) Let's take back the word "slut".

h) Let's put an unknown, moderately intelligent, marxist, ignorant, divisive, post-sitting, puppet of a senator in the White House.

The Alinsky rulebook still governs.

They are following it to the T..... Kennedy/Camelot Watergate, Nixon, McCarthy retrospectives just before election time. Constant 24-hour personal vilification of their enemies by the public mainstream Cable, Television, and Press. The strategy has never changed, it is just becoming more brazen.

Funny.

Submitted by The Vet on Tue, 08/23/2011 - 12:08pm.

I don't recall ever buying anything that reduced a political party's leading members as caricatures. I would consider it in poor taste no matter how much I despised the members of a party.

Ah, what do I know. I am just an extremist tea party kinda guy. Phweet.

Bark, bark!

Submitted by DontFeedTheTrolls on Tue, 08/23/2011 - 12:39pm.

Does this book feature Obama as a mad dog, ceaselessly barking away in front of a mirror? That, at least, would be realistic.

It's nice to know that there is someone on the "inside" that knows what is going on.
