Valerie Jarrett and Tea Party Movement

Valerie Jarrett, a member of Obama's inner circle, has no respect for the Tea Party Movement and its participants.

She sees these Americans as simple-minded, uneducated dolts. They need to be taught to understand that they should follow Obama.

Jarrett agrees that the Obama administration should offer booklets written in very simple terms to educate Tea Partiers and help them understand the basics of the issues.

This implies that the reason people are in opposition to Obama's policies is because they don't understand his agenda and how it would improve their lives. If they were properly educated, they would be on board.

She says their challenge is to find a very simple way of communicating.

What an insult!

I wonder if Jarrett likes the idea of reeducation camps, a more concentrated, structured effort to change the minds of the American people.

VALERIE JARRETT: Even if they are in favor of, let's say, a different form of health care insurance reform, fine; but what's happening is it's an anti-government -- I mean, that's the Tea Party. They really are, um, are, uh, trying to rebel against government at all. And I think that that's... Again, it's an extreme.

...

And it's always a lot easier, again, to scare people and to get them angry when they're already scared, and they're already uncertain. And I think that's what the Tea Party is trying to capture.

Speaking of reeducation, Jarrett perpetuates the myth that Obama is a genius.
JARRETT: There's nobody more self-critical than President Obama. Part of the burden of being so bright is that he sees his error immediately.

Really?

That's hilarious.

I guess Jarrett does think Americans are stupid.
