ACORN, HuffPo Organizing Efforts to Infiltrate Tax Day Tea Parties to Shape Media Coverage

Acts of protest tend to be synonymous with the left and are usually considered unsurprising on the right. However, when conservatives demonstrate - liberals take notice in a big way.

On Fox News Channel's April 7 "Your World," host Neil Cavuto reported that the Tax Day tea party protests on April 15 will be "infiltrated" by their political opponents and led by left-wing activist organizations. He specifically named Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN).

"Only eight days before a nationwide tea party, some over-caffeinated crashers aiming to lay waste to it," Cavuto said. "Reports of very well-organized infiltrators trying to mix in and rain on this parade. Talk about taxing."

Sounds like the scum is crawling out of their sewers where they’ve been hiding since election day. They should be easy to recognize as they crawl around on their bellies.

What a bunch of sleazy jerks. The media will play along like the good little propagandists that they are.

Need to have folks with video cameras on hand, at the very least.

I guess this would be the Pro-Higher-Taxes faction. Can’t we just put a line on tax forms wherein these people could simply write in how much additional tax that THEY would like to pay, and leave the rest of us alone?

And ACORN is getting taxpayer money, I think this country is going to erupt in the next few years. The insanity of this government is staggering.

another response would be to “isolate” the infiltrators once they have been identified by surrounding them quickly and moving them off to the side for a little bit of “deprogramming”. Similar to the action taken by SS agents protecting the President.
Scrum the bastards.

Sounds like a good reason to kick someone’s ass.

I guarantee you they don’t show the next time if some heads roll here. These people are the biggest, do-nothing pussies this country has to offer. Most of them are sniveling wuss-ass college punks, not unlike those anarchists who are allowed to run around at G-8 and G-20 meetings. The rest are just freeloading useless minorities and homos who are real loud when unopposed, but back down quick when someone steps up to challenge. Let’s roll.

This comes as no surprise. These are the type of people who just can’t stomach any opposition to The State. Especially when they see the power of such expanding. It makes them so unhappy to see people spontaneously deciding to go out and express their rights to free speech.

Heard that someone had picked up on this from an Obamunist who was collecting names at a tea party rally. When the person asked to see what the petition was and read it, the guy got really huffy and very rude, refused and walked away.

So apparently, they are looking at individual intimidation as a means to destroy any opposition. A common communist tactic.

Eveyrone should be really careful of giving personal information just because someone approaches and asks and claims to be on the same side.

Yep. Exactly one of the many Street Theater perfomances we’ll see from these people. You wait: riots from ACORN people down the road will lead to the Government trying to ban guns, and confiscate guns from the citizenry.

The election of Obama has ushered in a full fledged attempt to destroy conservatives and shape the Banana Republic they want to control. What’s scary is: they will not stop. The worst is still to come folks.

The one thing I would warn people to watch out for before or during the events is agent provocateurs.

This is standard practice for Communists.

No doubt they will be seeding freerepublic and other sites with statements about how we should kick ass or how we should beat down anyone against our cause.

This will set the stage for them to blame us for any violence that will occur.

Then at the event you will likely see people carrying signs that are inflammatory ie. racist, anti-semitic, etc.

This will allow the media to cast everyone there as an irrational goon.

Knowing ACORN be prepared also for possible physical confrontaton and provocation.

The key is to stay calm and not be rattled and if you can’t maybe don’t show up.

Remember that this is all about the image and who ever wins the battle of the image will win the fight.

We will have video and still cams. I will also have a Gadsden flag attached to a hardwood bo. Surprise! I will also exercise my 2nd Amendment rights.
