We’ll never not be amused at Democrats’ penchant for selective amnesia. During this morning’s House Democratic press conference, House Democratic Caucus chair Joe Crowley discussed recent GOP town halls:

Crowley on GOP suggesting town meeting protesters were paid:
What a dismissal of democracy

Crowley on Republicans blowing off demonstrators at their town hall meetings: Their constituents are just going to love that

Crowley on GOP suggesting town meeting protesters were paid:
Democrats never suggested the tea party was paid

Crowley at protesters:
This is all to discredit the credibility of what's going on at these town halls because it makes them uncomfortable

— Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) February 14, 2017

Hold on … can we back up a little bit? What did he say about the Tea Party?

Nice try, Joe. But despite Democrats’ most fervent hopes, we were not, in fact, born yesterday.

Not only did Dem leadership falsely claim tea party protests were paid, they falsely smeared them as name-calling hatemongers. @ChadPergram
