    CONGRATS! Jim, you deserve it! I think HotAir is the best, but Gateway is my favorite. It’s like Rush is the best, but Mark is my favorite.

    Btw, a nice tribute to Lady Liberty. Well done!

    Lol…so a blog that supports big govt politicians like Senator McConnell is voted as Tea Party blog? Linking articles, and using misleading headlines starting with “it begins…” while supporting big govt neocons that vote to increase the debt ceiling is not consistent with Tea Party beliefs.

    Extremely awesome, Jim. You truly deserve it. I listen to Mark Levin daily and he’s always quoting from your blog. :)

    Jim commented:

    Moreliberty – so glad you speak for all Tea Party members – oh wait, you are hiding behind a fake name and no one has a clue as to who you are. That speaks volumes… Jim Hoft is putting his name and face behind his words. You are not.

    Wow.What an honor. An award from an organization hosting blatantly racist speakers, honoring a website that constantly distorts, misquotes and otherwise lies to the low-info knee jerk crowd. Congratulations.
    +++++

    So who do you represent ?
    KKK? Black Panthers ? Laraza ? MS-13 ? CAIR ?
