‘Silent Majority Has Won’: Andrew Breitbart Tells Wisconisin Protestors To ‘Go To Hell’
Potential presidential candidate Sarah Palin returned to the spotlight yesterday during a speech to thousands of Tea Party protesters enduring cold April weather in Madison. Wisconsin. Her speech hit the usual notes (and some unusual ones as well) but perhaps the more fiery speech of the day came from Andrew Breitbart, who introduced Palin by saying “We are witnessing the end of community organizing,” and adding. “the silent majority won.” Oh, and he also repeatedly told protesters to “go to hell.” Good times!
It’s an interesting turn of phrase for Breitbart to use, calling the Tea Party supporters who backed Governor Scott Walker‘s efforts the “silent majority,” as this was a political term used by President Richard Nixon to describe U.S. citizens that were in favor of the Vietnam war (as opposed to the very vocal protest group in opposition). While Breitbart is not likely making an apples to apples comparison, not many historians look at the Nixonian “silent majority” as being on the right side of history. One wonders if the Tea Party supporters of Gov. Walker’s labor reform efforts will be viewed in a similar light.
Watch Breitbart’s combative introduction speech below:
