...Beaverton Middle School teacher Jason Levin's group wants to infiltrate the Tea Party to discredit the organization. But since Levin's name has been associated with the "Crash the Tea Party" Web site, he has been harassed by people who say they belong to that group.

Levin told KATU-TV that his phone has been ringing around the clock and his answering machine is recording threats...

So this idiot creates a web site threatening the tea party movement, vowing to infiltrate it and destroy it, yet he is upset about being threatened..talk about..IRONY

So this idiot creates a web site threatening the tea party movement, vowing to infiltrate it and destroy it, yet he is upset about being threatened...the MEDIA says HE'S the victim

[B-Cause]

The real tragedy here is that he is representative of the NEA dominated teachers today, and what trash they put in the minds of our youths. This guy is a 100% jerk. click here for a link to the management staff of the middle school where he teaches.

This clown is setting up a riot. People going to “Tea Parties” should be prepared to fight. The media will have a feeding frenzy. Closer ever closer comes the Social War!

[Red Badger]

...and his answering machine is recording threats...

Made by his friends pretending to be Tea Party members, no doubt.................

Ecce Homo.

Caption for that photo from that article: “Jason Levin holds up a shirt he was going to wear to blend in with Tea Party members during the movement’s protest on Tax Day, but after his face was posted on the Internet he had to shelve his planned appearance.”

So he was going to go and he was going to wear that shirt. And then he chickened out because his photo got on the internet to ID who was calling for racism and violence at tea parties.

Now he poses for a photo on the news agency’s website and it is on the internet.

Even Pravda would have a hard time selling that lie.

PS, Rush Limbaugh just told his listeners about this story.

[Lazamataz]

OMFG.

The AP would literally write this headline:

CHILD MOLESTER UNFAIRLY TARGETED

[Texan Tory]

He already openly admitted that he is willing to use deception. In fact, his willingness to use deception is the whole premise behind his Crash the Tea Party idea. Why does he expect people to suddenly take him at his word when he claims he is being threatened?

“So what do we do if they decide to show up in their Nazi uniforms and signs?”

Make a sign with word “Infiltrator” and an arrow. Point arrow at infiltrator. Make sure you get this on film and pass it around.

The sympathetic writers of that piece said "His Web site, Facebook page, and Twitter account are all devoted to bringing down the Tea Party movement from the inside by exaggerating its least appealing qualities."

That means that they are qualities that ARE present in the tea "party".

There is no validation. Pure Pravda.

Hey media, report objectively and let US decide.

Why not address the CTTP's calls for racist and violent hate speech? Why not ask him about plans to dress up as nazis at the events?

[JimRed]

Is that Eddie Haskell from “Leave It To Beaver”?

[chris_bdba]

Do they always threaten violence and then when confronted about it yell that they were “threatened”? What do you want to bet that the “threats” went something like....if I see you at our tea party...I will...? *eyeroll*

There is a counter-measure going on right now within his facebook sight. Click on Crash The Tea Party on his website below Impeach Obama.

[freekitty]

I bet he is a liar.

[a fool in paradise]

Another thing I want to mention, the internetz meme is already out there that "homescholers kan't spel".

Someone at CTTP advocated deliberately holding up misspelled signs.

When they have no counter to charges of "socialism" in this administration's agenda, they call it "socilist" and point and jeer at the critics instead.

They call this "teabonics"
