Stocking Stuffer! Fox & Friends Shows Us The Tea Party Patriots’ Coloring Book

video
» 35 comments

Hey there, reader! Are you looking for the perfect Christmas gift for your patriot in training? How about the Tea Party Patriots’ coloring book featured this morning on Fox & Friends? It’s fun, educational, and will give your kids something to do during the fifth hour of speeches at the next rally you drag them to. Watch out, though! Liberal bloggers will be looking over your kids’ shoulders as they color to make sure they vary up the skin tones in the group scenes.

Yes, today on Fox & Friends, Steve Doocy was joined by Tea Party Patriots co-founder Mark Meckler to discuss the wonderful new book. Not only did it give them time to talk about the organization’s 40 year plan (set to culminate right around the time our nation’s official language is changed to Chinese), it also gave Doocy a doozy of a chance to let loose with this wonderfully turned phrase:

“As I remember from back in the day, Mark, in a coloring book you try to stay inside the lines, but the Tea Party is all about going outside the lines, arentcha?”

Of course, not everyone likes the new book. Doocy’s co-worker Alan Colmes, host of the dearly departed Hannity and Buzzkill, wrote a blog post in which he asked “And who better to learn about freedoms guaranteed in our Constitution than from those who want to change it?” Meckler points out, however, that Colmes has yet to actually see the book and, when he does, he’ll discover that there are no mentions of liberals or President Obama, negative or otherwise. All there are are fun, games, puzzles, and even a section in the back where kids can make their own Tea Party signs!

Wait a second…Tea Party signs made with crayons? Uh oh!

    Just to clarify, the Tax Cut for the Wealthy cave-in as you call it, has been renamed the Boner-Mc O’Donelll Economic Stimulus Bill because of some of the non-tax provisions contained in it.

    See in this way by giving the bill a childish name that makes fun of Republicans I totally exonerate President Obama. I’m angry with him for showing any signs of cooperation with the Republicans but I don’t want to come off as racist.

    You can’t say that Fox News doesn’t know its audience – but I’m convinced that they won’t need the big box of crayons, the primary colors will do.

  • CosmosDan

    Yeah, aimed at kids 2 and up who color, indoctrination is not an inaccurate term

    to imbue with a usually partisan or sectarian opinion, point of view, or principle

    here’s a review with an obvious bias
    http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/culturemonster/2010/09/tea-party-coloring-book-is-kiddie-propaganda.html
    but this was interesting

    But it’s the premise of the coloring book that is the real eye-roller. Inside the front cover, the unidentified author explains that the origins of today’s tea party are found in the iconic 1773 event in Boston’s harbor — and gets the history wrong.
    The coloring book casts the pre-Revolutionary War episode in full fairy-tale mode, as a dispute between freedom-loving American colonists and an oppressive, far-away government that imposed taxes without their input.
    In reality, a government deal with the British East India Company, one of the first and largest transnational corporations in history, meant that small businesses in the Colonies were going under because they could not compete. The Boston Tea Party was a popular uprising against big corporate tax cuts enacted by the British Parliament, many of whose members were, like King George III, major company stockholders.

    Yeah, it doesn’t mention liberals or Obama, it just teaches little kids false history so they’ll understand Tea Party principles. Hooray!!

    You better run and tell your fellow Liberals to smarten up Kingy…
    According to Conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer,Obama just perpetrated the “Swindle of the year.”
    “Barack Obama won the great tax-cut showdown of 2010 – and House Democrats don’t have a clue that he did.”

    I don’t know what Boehner-McConnell were thinking with this so-called ‘compromise’.All the while the Liberal Democrats are up in arms,ready to storm the deck,shovels and fish hooks abound! You Libs are delusional,haha.

    Right, just ridiculous to paint that as indoctrination and then claim this isn’t.

    It doesn’t matter, they’ll just eat them anyway. On second thought, if Chris Christie is coming over, you better get the big box.

    My dusty T.V is set to CSPAN,baby! I’m not a fan of Rush but I’m with him on this one…. “Rush Limbaugh, the conservative radio host, said the tax deal “should not happen.” On his show Friday, Mr. Limbaugh blasted the Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill for giving in too much to Mr. Obama.”
    http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/12/13/conservatives-attack-tax-deal-as-vote-nears/?hp

    Get your bongs out my fellow Libertarians,set your T.V sets to CSPAN and get ready to wag out my hermanos.
    Ha!

    Lolwut?

    Is there a point?

    I’m pointing out that it’s ridiculousness of the right making a fuss over what they claim is indoctrination and then to say a book with false historical facts, from a political group, aimed at little kids who color, isn’t indoctrination.

    It’s extremely small potatoes in my book but it clearly fits the definition of indoctrination.

  • CosmosDan

    I think it is a good stocking stuffer and goofy Doocy ought to buy a box full and stuff every one of em.

    Ooooooooo… I can get this to go with my M. Dowd comic book.

    it was just the individual mandate amendment, the rest , according to the judge is OK,

    The final judgement will come at supreme court. even after that i am sure there will be more feuds on this topic, no matter how the ruling will go, from either side.

    I really want to know why anyone would want to be a socialist? Someone please tell me why??

    You might want to review some real history — not the Howard Zinn version — before you label what you don’t know ‘false’.

  • timcajun

    I don’t think the kids will be able to use this coloring book! They sell it with the crayons in a big white bag, but the crayons keep falling through the eye holes and getting lost!

    ‘Cause he’s fat. Get it? Did you see what I did there?

    Chris Christie is fat and I made a joke about it.

    Alas, I guess it went over everyone else’s heads. Everyone on this site is so beneath me.
