With regard to the
photo-shopped image of Karl Rove into a Nazi uniform, the TPP
has issued this statement:
“We did not know about or approve a manufactured image added to
a recent email from the Tea Party Patriots. It was added by
an outside vendor. The image was inappropriate and we have ordered
the vendor to immediately cease further use of the
image.” - Jenny Beth
Martin, Tea Party Patriots co-founder and National Coordinator.
We still await an apology from TPP. Calling something
“inappropriate” is not a direct apology. And the apology should
come from TPP itself, not from some vendor.
Further question: What sort of vendor goes around photo-shopping
anyone into Nazi uniforms, anyway?
The cannibalization on the right must stop.
