Taking a page right out of Nancy Pelosi's playbook of stating that town hall meeting protestors are sporting swastikas thus implying that they are Nazis, low rated radio host Bill Press is now accusing them of using Nazi tactics in a sanity-challenged column. This follows on the heels of Press' attack on the protestors on Fox News as reported earlier this week by Seton Motley here in NewsBusters. Here is Press going completely over the edge on the subject of the protestors in his column:
...Taking a page right out of a Nazi playbook, organizers bus in professional protestors and arm them with instructions on how to take over meetings, shut down discussion, shout over any pro-health care reform speakers, and then post video of the resulting chaos on YouTube. It's mob rule, pure and simple.
Having encouraged viewers to show up, sympathetic anchors on Fox News then pretend these are "grassroots" protests springing up spontaneously across the country in opposition to President Obama's plans for health care reform. Nonsense. There's nothing spontaneous about them. They're not grassroots protests, they're "Astroturf" protests. Just look at who's paying the freight, who shows up and what orders they're given.
Story Continues Below Ad ↓
Who, Bill? People could use the big bucks supposedly paid to the protestors. And do they get free Brooks Brothers suits in the deal?
Funding and direction for the Stalinist-style campaign comes from two conservative, lobbyist-run Washington think tanks: Americans for Prosperity, headed by Tim Phillips, former partner of Ralph Reed in Century Strategies; and FreedomWorks, led by former House Majority Leader Dick Armey. Previously, both organizations funded and orchestrated the so-called "tea parties" staged on April 15. And in many ways, today's town halls are simply a continuation of yesterday's tea parties, with many of the same players and tactics.
Probably not one protestor in ten, if that many, even heard of those of those organizations but don't tell that to Bill Press. He's got his wacky conspiracy theory and just can't let go. Here is one particularly laughable assertion by Press:
Tea baggers, in fact, have been busy lately. They came out in force on July 20, the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing, to deny that Neil Armstrong ever walked on the moon.
And now Press lays out how he thinks the town hall meeting protestors get their marching orders:
How do tea baggers know when and where to show up? Easy. Organizers e-mail a list of scheduled congressional town hall meetings nationwide. Pick one near you, or sign up for the bus.
Gee, and I thought that "top secret" information was relayed to them via secret decoder rings...or by simply checking the news on the Web. Oh, and does a free Brooks Brothers suit come with that bus ride?
And how do they know what to do when they get there? That's easy, too. A leaked memo by Robert MacGuffie originally posted on the FreedomWorks Web site, TeaPartyPatriots.org, spells it out. Rule No. 1: Artificially inflate your numbers. Advises MacGuffie: "Spread out in the hall and try to be in the front half. ... The Representative should be made to feel that a majority, and if not, a significant portion of at least the audience, opposes the socialist agenda of Washington."
One little problem here, Freedomworks never posted "Articificially inflate your numbers." Rush Limbaugh discredited that assertion on his radio show yesterday:
Think Progress wrote this headline: "Artificially inflate your numbers." He never wrote that. He never said it. The next item: "You need to rock the boat early in the representative's presentation. Watch for an opportunity to yell out and challenge his statements early." The Think Progress headline: "Be disruptive early and often," but he didn't write it. They added it. The next block, quote: "The goal is to rattle the rep, get him off his prepared script and agenda. If he says something outrageous, stand up and shout out and sit right back down." Think Progress adds this line: "Try to rattle him, not have an intelligent debate."
But of course, Bill Press repeated those lies:
Rule No. 2: Be as disruptive as possible. "You need to rock the boat early in the Rep's presentation." Why? Rule No. 3: "The goal is to rattle him, get him off his prepared script and agenda. If he says something outrageous, stand up and shout out and sit right back down. Look for these opportunities before he even takes questions."
Press concludes with a false bravado:
In the end, the staged town hall protests will hurt the opposition's cause, not help it. Which is why, were I a Republican member of Congress, I'd encourage these yahoos to stay home. Were I a Democratic member, I'd pay them to show up.
So if those protests will hurt their own cause so much, why are the Democrats and their media allies, including Bill Press, sounding so worried to the extent of repeating easily discredited misinformation (aka lies)?

It's mob rule, pure and simple.
I've been watching ACORN do this to city council meetings in New Orleans for years.
I do believe if the press keeps insulting these demonstrators, they will create much sympathy for them. People are more against the takeover than for it. If they keep insulting them, I think you'll see bigger crowds with people who seldom turn out for demonstrations.
Why not Jeb Bush?
I thought he was talking
August 7, 2009 - 11:03 ET by kgI thought he was talking about the union henchmen at the townhall meetings too.
Obama said he is like Lincoln. What we didn't realize is that he is trying to create a civil war under his watch!

The Problem with calling them NAZIS
August 7, 2009 - 09:32 ET by lareeThe NAZIS were
National Socialist German Workers’ Party
So who is behaving exactly like “Socialist”
They either don’t own dictionaries, can’t read English or are so
dishonest they won’t admit what they really are to the American Public,
well until they get real comfortable and entrenched in every facet of
our lives.
The people protesting are against Socialism NOT for it, if anyone is taking a page out of the NAZIS playbook it is the Progressives. Projecting much? There must be medication for that mental derangement disorder, be sure to get a supply of it before it is rationed Mr Press.

August 7, 2009 - 09:39 ET by KC MulvilleThere has been a huge conspiracy opposing liberals, and no one invited me!
If you're not sure whether these reports about "astroturfing" are true, you don't have to go far for an answer. Just examine your own experience: did anyone specifically invite you to go rabble-rouse at the local town hall? Has anyone offered to bus you in?
If you didn't get an invitation, either, then you're faced with a simple question: which is more likely?
Which is more likely?
These people who are trying to portray legitimate anger as "astroturf" goons who like swastikas ... are the people you elected to Congress. So, come 2010, what are we going to do about it?
When Bill's left-wing kook
August 7, 2009 - 09:40 ET by winston smithWhen Bill's left-wing kook allies like Code Pink and A.N.S.W.E.R., etc were marching all over Washington during the Bush years, you never heard him utter a peep about how the marches and protests were organized. Now that the shoe's on the other foot, he's whining about how average voters (and even some fellow Democrats) are getting marching orders from that old evil right-wing cabal that he still can't seem to offer any proof of.
wait....
August 7, 2009 - 09:40 ET by candanceOrganizers are bussing people? We have professional protestors? Where are all of these mythical employers? Show us the proof or shut up about it - and one obscure email from a guy who isn't even a Republican, that doesn't count.
Agreed
August 7, 2009 - 14:42 ET by KC MulvilleThe only proof they have is that some conservative websites have encouraged people to go. But that doesn't prove that the protestors went there at the command of the websites.
After all, the Orioles have a website that encourages me to see a ballgame. Does that mean when I go to a ballgame, I did so at the "command" of the Orioles website? These idiots are using the exact same dis-logic here.
They're grasping for straws, which shows how desperate they are. The whole Nazi thing starts with Nancy Pelosi making ludicrous accusations about anti-Obama people showing up with Nazi placards. She has absolutely no proof - she just threw it out there because she knew the mud would stick. Apparently, one guy showed up with a stop-circle symbol over top of a swastika, which means that his sign was opposing the fascism of the Obama Gang. Pelosi portrayed that as proof that these were Nazi sympathizers. No one called her on it.
So now, she makes more incendiary charges, and no one challenges her. Remember that, the next time one of these idiot reporters brags about talking "truth to power."

Correct
August 7, 2009 - 10:10 ET by cvgbuckeyeYou are correct Mr. Press, the protestors are taking a page out of Hitler's book. That being the page that the Furher Obama Brownshirts and people like you are using to try to silence the American People.
Beware Mr. Press. It has begun. I said a long time ago that Fuhrer Obama will soon be faced by a REVOLUTION in this country. AND we know what side you and all your Pravda buddies are on.
You just can't imagine what's going to happen next.

Re brownshirts
August 7, 2009 - 10:29 ET by slickwillie2001You're right. The Bamster wants a 'domestic security force' as large and as well-funded as the US military. Why didn't the old media ask him during the campaign what they would do? Now we know, he wants an Obama Youth Corps to silence dissent in our country. No man in our history, within and without, has been more a danger to our nation than the Bamster.
where are the busses?
August 7, 2009 - 10:00 ET by forestI haven't seen any of these busses that are supposedly bringing in people who are opposed to national health control.
The uniformed SEIU goons at the Missouri meeting yesterday may have been "bussed in", but unlike hacks like Bill Press, I'm not going to make that claim until I know for sure.
This is the 1st amendment support from Obama??!!!
August 7, 2009 - 10:00 ET by c5thenNotice that they are not arguing for their point of view or even trying to show that the protesters are wrong. They are vilifying the protesters simply because they are protesting.
This is a GIANT step towards fascism by Obama and the DNC. This attitude by the administration, the DNC and, amazingly,the media is the biggest internal threat that this country has faced ever. I do not say that lightly. Even the Civil War of the 1860's was not as severe because if the south had seceded, there would still have been a United States of America, just smaller. This new attitude threatens the very foundation that this country was founded upon, and even more insideous, the liberals are trying to bring up racism as a sheild that they can hide behind while undermining the 1st amendment.
I am disgusted, furious and scared all at the same time.

Book, chapter and verse. please
August 7, 2009 - 10:07 ET by ricklailFirst off Press is just as full of crap as a porta-jon at the World 600.
I would like to know what chapter and verse we are using. I have become a bit more knowledgable about the Hitler years. For one Hitler fired the people up using emotions and staging grandosie meetings. ( Sound like Obama's speech after the Dem Convention?) His speeches were emotional lacking substance. It is the groups like ACORN, Moveon and SEIU that are using emotions to fire their followers up because lord knows they have no substance in their arguements. The real Nazis are the Dems and their hind tit sucking piglets.

Yeah--ACORN has cool signs
August 7, 2009 - 10:52 ET by StarAZWhen ACORN goes to a protest, they are wired--matching t-shirts, mass-produced signs, little cheers and chants. We citizens could learn a lot about how to stage a protest. We are amateur hour.
And they get PAID
August 7, 2009 - 11:11 ET by nwahsACORN workers get paid to protest.
Why not Jeb Bush?
Yeah! Put people to work at least!
August 7, 2009 - 15:02 ET by StarAZThese poor deluded ObamaCare skeptics could at least pay $10 an hour and help the unemployed. Instead, they insist on dragging themselves out there with their common sense and good instincts and doing it themselves. Must be the hot meeting halls, dumb-looking solons, and even lamer press people that attracts them.
I find this rather telling:
August 7, 2009 - 10:05 ET by karelingWere I a Democratic member, I'd pay them to show up.
Is it just me, or is Bill's Freudian slip showing?
They lose
August 7, 2009 - 10:09 ET by UnsaneLooks like Bill Press and Nancy Pelosi have lost the argument. Calling people "Nazis" is just code for their running out of ideas.
And as we all know, the Left has been intellectually bankrupt for years. (Due in part to the media coddling them 25/8 for many many years.)

The left has been intellectually bankrupt for decades. With Obama, his brownshirt supporters, and media sycophants like Bill Press, they are exposed as morally and ethically bankrupt as well.
You know, you're right
August 7, 2009 - 10:49 ET by StarAZThe Nazi gambit is pretty much game over.
Actually, the liberals are ...
August 7, 2009 - 10:30 ET by SentryDanActually, the liberals are the ones who are taking the pages out of the Nazi and communist playbooks. Trying to stifle dissent, reporting your neighbors/friends for making comments about government proposals that they don't agree with, telling their lackies (democratic senators and representatives) how to lie about the government proposals, etc.
The dissent being raised by "We the People" is the same kind of dissent raised by our forefathers when they spoke out against British oppression. This Obama healthcare reform is becoming more about our freedoms that about any healthcare reforms.
Obama doesn't want to reform healthcare, he wants government control of our lives. He wants to create the United Socialist States of America, where only the liberals can speak as they want and the rest of us have to listen to their propoganda and cede to their wishes.
This down hill slide started with the dems taking control of congress in 2006. These clowns refuse to learn from history, refer to the Great Depression to see how things went under a totally democratic administration.
"We the People" need to be very aware of what is going on and use every legal means at our disposal to get rid of the creeps. I pray to God every night that we can turn our country around in time.
Remember folks, Freedom isn't Free. It was bought with the blood and sacrifice of the men and women who are serving and who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces.
For those who fought for it, Freedom has a flavor that the protected will never know.
Also remember folks, that the way to SUPPORT THE TROOPS is to support their mission. Anyone who says that they support the troops but don't support their mission is lying about supporting the troops. And if you want to know, yes I do have a dog in the fight, he is a United States Marine.

August 7, 2009 - 10:54 ET by hetookuazyYou really didn't think these people were going to just let an honest, open, debate happen did you?
This is the "HARD LEFT" you've heard about but the other word "LIBERALS" were used to describe them.
Liberal is the cute consumer name, for who and what these people are and while the NAZI's were socialists, they are never identified as such because it doesn't fit the propaganda, of the hard left. Who strangely, also call themselves "liberals" when they aren't using the term "progressive" instead.
This is no game and these people are serious.

I don't think this has anything to do with her RINOism and everything to do with her own political ambitions.

Bill Press's article needed a reply.........

Dear Editors,
I was a little confused by a news >politics article, in the Hartford
Courant, by Bill Press.
It would seem to be better placed on an opinion page.
Also, I was wondering, since his
article is about tea-bagging, is the Courant primarily a gay publication?
It could be just an honest mistake by Bill Press, confusing tea-bagging
with what I do : Tea- partying.
He just might be more familiar with the former activity than the latter.
Tea-partying is inspired by a tax protest prior to the revolutionary war
in the U.S. I engage in this activity because
I favor a small federal government and larger local autonomy. Tea
parties are about small government, and not Apollo conspiracy theories,
as Mr. Press claimed. My father was a satellite communications expert
at a company which, for decades, supplied communications equipment used
in the NASA programs. Neil Armstrong really walked on the moon.
I am getting no free rides to any tea parties. My husband and I drive
ourselves, make our own signs, and receive no renumeration. I hope that
helps with some of the misconceptions under which Bill Press is laboring.
As for the tea bagging........ can't assist with any of that, sorry.
