re: The latest Leftist "gotcha": The Boston Tea Party

I've been seeing this for a few weeks now, even when that Puerto Rican terrorist was released by Obama.

They compare any civil disobedience and rioting to the Boston Tea Party, knowing that "patriots" won't know how to react to that. I've already seen it 2-3 times today regarding the rioting.

Well that's typical Leftism shallowness. Take the widest view of something then apply that vague description to some specific event and say "LOOK! THEY ARE THE SAME!!"

To go back to my favorite Buckley quote: "(this) is the equivalent of saying that the man who pushes an old lady into the path of a hurtling bus is not to be distinguished from the man who pushes an old lady out of the path of a hurtling bus: on the grounds that, after all, in both cases someone is pushing old ladies around.”
