    If anyone wanted to find out more about the Tea Party, look no further than Tea Party activist Todd Kincannon who unleashed a parade of vile and hateful tweets aimed at Texas State Senator Wendy Davis.

    Why such hate against Davis? This past summer, Davis became a household name when she y filibustered to stop Gov. Rick Perry’s abortion restrictions. She has since announced her candidacy to replace Perry, the far right's golden child.

    A few weeks ago, Davis admitted that she separated from her husband and then obtained a divorce a few years later, which somehow upset the far right.

    Here are some quotes from Kincannon's tweets that pass this site's smut filter:

    • "Wendy Davis stimulates the kneepad economy. And a lot of penises."
    • "Wendy Davis has solved America's student loan crisis! Just find a dumbass to pay off your loans in exchange for sex."
    • In other news, Wendy Davis took a short break from blowing 'campaign contributors' today to condemn remarks made by Mike Huckabee...
    • Wendy Davis is a looker and a hooker

    There are many, many more here: Tea Party Republican Goes On Sexist Twitter Rampage Against Wendy Davis

    Kincannon's Twitter account has been suspended.

    Questions:

    Why do Tea Partiers so often need to be gagged, banned or suspended from various Internet media?

    How often do we hear "they don't represent us" when fellow Tea Partiers are caught using racist, sexist or crude language?

    Politics is a contact sport.

    Conservatives didn't go crying to the referees when supporters of the absentee mom made rude remarks about Greg Abbott being in a wheel chair.

    the same reason lefties go all sicko on women like Sarah Palin or her daughter, or just about any right wing woman when they get the chance. people make (*)(*)(*)(*)ty remarks about each other all the time, dont know why any of them are made special cases.

    True.

    You're wrong on that one:

    Look at all those crybabies in the comments section, and that's not even a Fox 'News' website!

    Of course conservatives are going to respond to personal attacks on Abbott.

    But no Wendy Davis hatchet women were thrown off the Internet.

    Libs can dish out the hate but they can't take it.

    I see: Liberals deserve the personal attacks while wingers never do.

    Wendy Davis lost custody of her children because she was judged an unfit mom by the courts for adultery and illegal drug use.

    Yes because one person equals everyone in the tea party. How very intelligent of you to figure that out.

    I don't read all the comments but who cares?

    They are just comments.

    Libs are equally disrespectful of conservative public figures.

    Lefties don't take the moral high ground. Lefties don't dismiss people due to gender, religion, culture, race, poverty, etc.

    The problem the Tea Party has is that they have painted themselves into the corner. By claiming that homosexuality is unnatural, Christianity and creationism should be taught in schools, gay marriage should be illegal, children should have two parents, etc., they have held the standard of morality up to a 1950s level. The problem is that this isn't the 1950s and the Tea Partiers are no more likely to conform to their value rules than liberals.

    Judging from the responses on this thread, the right really is as anti-Woman as the mainstream media has asserted all along.

    You must not have been born when your kind trashed Palin and her kids.
