More attempted smearing of the tea parties

You may have heard about the attempt to discredit the tea party movement by suggesting that Scott Brown was trying to distance himself from it by rejecting an invitation to speak at the Boston tea party. There IS an explanation, but, in addition, doesn't it make practical sense that a politician works the angles? Gateway Pundit:

The state-run media today reported that Senator Scott Brown “Snubs Sarah Palin, Bags Tea Party” and would not attend the tea party rally in Boston on Wednesday.

Well, once again the democratic-media complex was not being completely honest. Popular Senator Scott Brown was on with Howie Carr today and told him the rest of the story.
