i laughed out loud when i read this today while waiting in line (from Alan Colmes' twitter page) Justin Bieber Smears Tea Party? Right Wing Flips Out POSTED IN LIBERALAND BY SANDI BEHRNS • SEPTEMBER 28, 2010, 3:15 PMET • 15 COMMENTS » by Sandi Behrns
Last Thursday’s season premier of the CBS crime drama CSI featured a very special guest star: teen heartthrob Justin Bieber. The casting was certainly calculated to bring a larger audience to the show; but did it also serve a more nefarious purpose?
Bieber played [in the words of Alessandra Stanley of the New York Times] a “domestic terrorist with Tea Party leanings.” Even though the episode made no direct reference to the Tea Party, the “right-wing” protest depicted resembled a Tea Party protest, at least according to some viewers who have commented on FreeRepublic.com, a conservative blog.
But it wasn’t just the commenters at FreeRepublic who saw a “Liberal Hollywood” smear campaign; Andrew Breitbart told the Daily Caller’s Matthew Boyle,
“This is predictable behavior from Hollywood. Over the past year and a half, the Democratic Party, left-wing media and, now, Hollywood, have done anything they can to portray the Tea Party movement as a violent Timothy McVeigh-esque or as a racist movement.”
