Tea Party Rally Canceled Because of MassResistance's Presence!

This was supposed to be a post about the Tea Party Rally going on in Lexington this Sunday, supposed to be. I was going to write about all the conservative politicians attending along with the infamous leader of that nationally recognized hate group MassResistance, and, well, see for yourself:

Tea Party to rally on the Battle Green in Lexington

The rally, which will take place on Sunday, July 25, from 1 to 3 p.m., will include addresses by Jesse Segovia, the event organizer and chairman of the Lexington Republican Town Committee, WRKO Radio talk show host Todd Feinberg, and Brian Camenker, president of MassResistance, an organization that describes itself as a “pro-family action center for Massachusetts” and which opposes gay marriage.

Then there was this the next day:

Dahlberg backs out of Tea Party rally in Lexington

Eric Dahlberg, a Republican candidate for state Senate from the 3rd Middlesex District, has withdrawn from a Tea Party rally scheduled to take place in Lexington on Sunday after learning that Brian Camenker, president of MassResistance, would be speaking at the event.

“Some consider MassResistance a hate group,” Dahlberg said. “I don’t want to be within a mile of an event that gives someone like that a stage.”

Then, surprise, surprise, only hours later....

Lexington Tea Party rally canceled

Event organizer Jesse Segovia, chairman of the Lexington Republican Committee, said he “never gave a thought to uninviting Camenker,” whom he called a personal
friend.

According to Segovia, other speakers followed Dahlberg’s lead and began pulling out during the day on Thursday, prompting him to cancel the rally.

Isn't it great when Americans learn the truth about hate groups! Keep spreading the word.

It is to laugh. So, which of his wee string of derogatory adjectives will BC toss on this -- outrageous, depraved, cowardly, disgusting?

I bet he won't use fair, predictable and honorable.
