The Huffington Post has fallen for a fake Tea Party sign.

This screenshot shows the Huffington Post describing the (FAKE) image as "shocking":

According to the Politico "a self-described infiltrator at the afternoon rally, who dressed as a monk and carried a sign reading “God Hates Taxes,” said many tea partiers lauded him for his sign."

These fools didn’t even try blending in, and they made a big mistake announcing what they were going to do through a web site. I don’t know if any of you remember the Protest Warriors, a small group of Right Wing young people who would crash Anti-War and other Leftist rallys, but they did it right, and they had fun doing it.

Huffington didn’t “FALL” for anything...
These are EXACTLY the images they want to use, to portray Conservatives and the Tea Parties as “Crazy loons”

Huffington may ponder this. If 10% is good enough for God, then it should be sufficient for the government..

Liberals are stupid. They talk on the Internet as if it's their Private Batman/Superhero Communications Array, or the Enterprise is covering for them, or some other wackiness.

No wonder they can't hold jobs.

"Render unto Ceaser what is Ceaser's." .

It's just that Ceaser is sometimes owed an ass kicking.

“God Hates Taxes”

Actually, I kind of like that.

Well ... we are told to “render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s.” Although I am certainly no biblical scholar, I think it’s hard to interpret this verse as any kind of ringing endorsement of statism.

Not sure on this one:

This was also on the Huffington site as an example of 'shocking" signs at the tea parties:

Compare that photo to the man we believe is Jason Levin's brother Justin:

Justin Levin listed on his facebook page that he went to college in PA and Im pretty sure it was Muhlenberg College (I am unable to find his facebook page anymore-did he remove it?)The top photo has a guy with MC on his shirt. Also, from page 2 of the Politico link we read about one of the protesters:"Kurt Beyer, a 21-year-old student at Pennsylvania’s Muhlenberg College

Need some freepers with the research skills to confirm Jason's brother does in fact attend Muhlenberg College.-Thanks! P.S. Still could just be a coincidence. Might just be a guy in a Marine Corp t-shirt.

At first glance of the headline I thought it read: “Arianna Huffington Falls For Fake Husband”

Yes, and the problem arises when Caesar thinks it is all his. It is only his great kindness that lets you keep a small part.

I think you and I are on the same level. The more Ceasar thinks he's owed..... the more he shall receive ;) We'll see come November.
