Our tipsy medical administrative assistant in Chicago aside, it appears that tea party crashers simply aren’t showing up in the numbers that Democrats hoped for … or for that matter, showing up as anything resembling competent crashers at all.
The self-conscious and smug hipsters profiled earlier and their erratic, pimply allies in the “pea party” movement (singing, with tedious predictability, “give peas a chance”) hung around the fringes of yesterday’s gathering in Boston, but were by no means infiltrators. If anything, Boston has provided us with something of a poster child for the failure of the “Crash the Tea Party” initiative, a man PJTV tipster Rick Lippencott captured cavorting around in an Uncle Sam costume with a red ball rubber nose, holding up a toy gun, and mocking the Second Amendment.
I didn’t see any at the Tea Party this evening in downtown Raleigh, and there were only about 30-40 counter-protesters across the street.
A few in Sac! One with a sign the said” Linch Obama Care”. He left after about four mins. Then two nicely dressed guys with little signs that said “ Tea Party=hatriots” Pretty lame. They left after about ten mins. And getting confronted by me asking them where is the hate? They of course had no response...
I’d be curious to find out if there were any crashers at the Pittsburgh tea party. I didn’t see them, but then again, the place was crowded and I’m too short to really see much. :)
Methinks the promise of infiltration and agitation was mostly bogus.
What a difference a missing apostrophe in a thread title makes (possessive, not plural). I thought explosions were eminent.
You got me!
Sorry...
Ambiguous headline!
Mark Levin said that Jason guy was just put on administrative leave by the school system he works for.
Epic fail! Love it!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!
No, the intent to sand bag Tea Parties was not bogus. It’s just the rat’s got caught. Their were intentions uncovered before they could act. You may have noticed that rats don’t like light. On confronting light they scurry for darkness every time.
If anyone is wondering when the battle to save our country began you’re late. That battle began the day Onada usurped the Presidency. It is becoming sharper with each passing day and each piece of Marxist legislation that is being passed by the Politbureau aka Congress. One wonders if it’ll end in a peaceful or violent transfer of power.
I just got back home from the West Palm Beach Tea Party. If there were any “Infiltraitors” there, they maintained a very low profile. There were several members of the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office SWAT team watching out for trouble. The keynote speaker was Lt. Col Allan West (USA, ret). He’s a very dynamic speaker and really got the crowd rocking. I’m not very good at estimating crowd sizes, but I’d reckon there were at least 1,000 people there.
No problems at the State House in Trenton today. A few folks in union shirts came through and one small goup of fewer than twenty of the same walked by together. But no misbehavior on their part (or ours) due to the alert NJ State Troopers who silently kept pace with them as they passed.
“two nicely dressed guys with little signs that said “ Tea Party=hatriots” Pretty lame. They left after about ten mins.”
They were running late for their appointment at the bathhouse
Wilmington, DE had about 500 people on the waterfront. No disruptors, although LIBertarians tried to provoke with some signs left over from 2004. Plenty of RINO politicians jumping on the bandwagon. I met Christine O’Donnell,who is running against Mike Castle, for Biden’s seat. She seems lie the real deal.
Actually the one on the right did have a real strong lisppp so being that it is Sacramento, it is very likely they were butt pirates...
The lefties are getting just too predictable
