Media Matters: The Tea Party Teapot Tempest Rages On

Washington, D.C.–(ENEWSPF)– It’s fitting that a week that began with conservatives warning about the president indoctrinating schoolchildren would end with those same conservatives acting like schoolchildren in the face of perceived indoctrination. Leading up to President Obama’s September 8 back-to-school address to our nation’s students, the conservative media loudly voiced their opposition to the speech, insisting that the president was recruiting children to his political goals and conscripting them into his civilian army. Of course, when none of that happened and Obama delivered the speech he intended to deliver, conservatives still managed to declare victory, claiming — with an admitted lack of evidence and an implied lack of sense — that the White House had secretly changed the speech in response to their heroic exposé of Obama’s attempt to corrupt the minds of the youth.
