Andrea Tantaros: Tea Party Believes In Patriotism While Elites ‘Worship’ Multiculturalism

Andrea Tantaros probably thought she was oh-so-clever on The Five Friday evening as she cutely painted multiculturalism as somehow unpatriotic, unlike the Tea Party. This, from the same woman who a few months ago urged her radio audience to go out and punch an Obama supporter in the face.

Tantaros said on Friday (10/18/13)

The elites believe in multiculturalism, they believe in diversity. The Tea Party believes in patriotism. OK? …They worship a different altar. They don’t worship multiculturalism. …This is a fight over the civic cult of America.

But Tantaros has questionable bona fides (at best) on the subject of patriotism. Let’s not forget this is the same woman who said she thinks the United States is like the Soviet Union – right before she urged her radio-show listeners to “do me a favor” and punch anyone who voted for President Obama.

This is Obama’s America. It’s like the Soviet Union. He said he’d change the country. He said it, he said it, he said it, and a lot of people voted for him. And if you see any of those people today, do me a favor, punch ‘em in the face.

@ Visitor 55: Nope, she doesn’t — because Andrea, Gerry Rivers, and Michelle Maglalang all own magic mirrors; every time they look at their reflection in them, they see a blonde, blue-eyed person . . .

Multiculturalism and patriotism are not mutually exclusive except apparently in Teabagger Land.

Andrea Tantaros? Wasn’t she in that movie “My Big Fat Gay Greek Wedding”?

Joseph West…..I confess, I have no answer for who she is, either.
But, I’m neither a teabagger, nor a Fox-o-phile.
But I do have a pretty good idea of precisely what she is.

“The elites believe in multiculturalism, they believe in diversity.”

Good thing they do, Andrea — or you’d be working as a maid at some seaside hotel in Thessaloniki instead of telling lies on Fox in the US . . .

Joseph West, LOL!

Given the typical teabagger’s political savvy and general lack of intelligence, I’d be willing to bet that if you asked your typical teabagger “Is Andrea Tantaros an Italian singer, a Greek actress, or an American political analyst,” less than 10% would even guess she’s American.

I quit caring what Tantaros has to say a long time ago- She’s just too predictable, you can almost run her on a stopwatch, and (IMHO) that isn’t worth her voice.

Though I actually have a theory that when she says stuff like this, it’s something Gutfeld slipped her to spike her individual ratings during dips. Seriously, tell me that you wouldn’t instantly assume he said it without a disclaimer in the title. In text, they read like something written for him that he handed down.

This from the woman who recently urged her radio audience to "do me a favor" and punch an Obama supporter in the face.
