Tea Party Just Kidding This Time

The Tea Party Express has called on President Obama to “condemn this inappropriate and uncivil rhetoric,” saying it “has no place in the public forum.”

“Jimmy Hoffa’s remarks are inexcusable and amount to a call for violence on peaceful tea party members, which include many Teamster members,” Tea Party Express chair Amy Kremer said in a written statement.

Of course, they don't mean it, because if the government criticizes uncivil rhetoric, it's ABRIDGING FREE SPEECH. So Amy Kremer is only kidding folks. Ignore her.

Oh, I almost forgot to include what Hoffa said, speaking before President Obama at a Labor Day rally yesterday. Not that it matters.

We got to keep an eye on the battle that we face: The war on workers. And you see it everywhere, it is the Tea Party. President Obama, this is your army...We are ready to march. Let’s take these sons of bitches out and give America back to an America where we belong.
