Philadelphia Freedom

I spent the last two days in Philadelphia with Bill and the America Unplugged Tour with Michael Medved and Mike Gallagher. Tuesday night they packed out the Keswick Theater and put on a great informative and engaging show.

Some thoughts and pictures from the road:

The liberal media continues to hound conservatives, especially tea partiers, for being racist extremists who use their rallies to spew hate mongering expletives at anyone associated with the Democrats or President Obama. This is nothing new from the left's worn out playbook. They always latch on to a hand full of crazies and then generalize about the entire conservative movement. Remember when pro-lifers were all right wing extremists who wanted to bomb abortion clinics? Well, here's a warning to the liberal media: don't confuse passion with vitriol.

There were no pitchforks and torches in the crowd in Philadelphia. Granted, there was the occasional chorus of boos, but there were no calls to arms or riot rousing rhetoric. These people are gracious, every day Americans who just want to be heard. For those on the left to say that they haven't seen such hatred and bigotry since the Civil Rights movement, is simply absurd. Not to mention the fact that the preponderance of the left's evidence for this comes from Democratic Congressmen who claim that tea partiers spit on them and cursed at them. Most Americans don't believe Congress as it is, so why would they believe this.

Back stage at the WNTP America Unplugged Stop.

Great night in a great town.

The show must go on. Morning In America on the road at WNTP.
