Scrunt Who Scolded People For Saying the Pledge of Allegiance...A Former ACORN Hacktivist

Figures.

If you're just catching up to this story (like me)...on Wednesday at a candidate debate hosted by the Illinois League of Women Voters, the audience spontaneously decided at the beginning of the debate to stand and say the Pledge of Allegiance. The debate moderator, Kathy Tate-Bradish, tried to stop them and then scolded them when they went ahead and did it anyway.

She then took the opportunity to complain vocally in the media that it was all the fault of throwback Republicans. According to Tate-Bradish, spontaneously saying the Pledge was just "phony patriotism."

YID with LID notes that Tate-Bradish (the hyphenated name should be a dead give-away) is a longtime Democratic activist who has been particularly active in the past few years.

Ms Tate-Bradish, the moderator was very involved in the Illinois effort to make Barak Obama president, she even hosted campaign events for Obama in her own home.

[...]

[S]he used to work for progressive mainstays such as ACORN's Project Vote, and the Progressive People for the American Way.

There's more over at YID with LID, but I can't in good conscience steal it. Click on over.

Supposedly "neutral" debate moderator? Democrat.
Person doesn't like the Pledge? Democrat.
Person makes accusations of "phony patriotism"? Democrat.

These are not good people.
