Yesterday, on CBS, Mayor Bloomberg speculated that the failed bomb attack in Times Square might be the result of “someone with a political agenda that doesn’t like the healthcare bill.”
Now the Tea Party Nation, the generally disrespected hocum group that put together the Tea Party Convention with Sarah Palin back in Nashville a few months back, has dashed off an email to members that we’ve obtained calling for an apology on behalf of Tea Partiers elsewhere. Because, I guess, if you wonder if the bomb might have been set off by a domestic crazy upset about the Health Care Reform bill, who else could that mean but the Tea Party Movement, right?
Email blast after the jump …
Tea Party Nation A message to all members of Tea Party Nation
Yesterday, on Katie Couric’s show, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg “speculated” that the terrorist who tried to bomb Time Square was “someone with a political agenda that doesn’t like the healthcare bill.” In other words, he was trying to blame the Tea Party movement and the patriotic Americans who stood up and fought against this usurpation of our rights.
Well, guess what? The bomber is a naturalized citizen from Pakistan, with ties to the terrorists in Pakistan.
Instead of apologizing for getting it wrong, or insulting mainstream, patriotic Americans, Bloomberg’s response has been to say that “bias will not be tolerated.” Mr. Mayor, how about your bias against the majority of Americans in this country?Mayor Bloomberg needs to apologize to all of the Americans he insulted with his “speculation.”
Call Mayor Bloomberg’s office at (212)-NEW-YORK and demand that he apologize to those patriotic Americans who he is so fond of smearing.
For those of you who Twitter, until he apologizes, please use the hashtag #Apologize. Let’s make that one of Twitter’s top trending tags. Let’s keep it up until he apologizes.
Forward this email to your friends and ask them to call and tweet until Bloomberg apologizes.
