The Boston Tea Party Draws Thousands

Whoa, I guess they had a great turnout. Here’s aerial footage of the Tea Party, via The Tea Party Express. :

Fox News reported:

The crowd numbered several thousand, a welcome surprise to some protesters in a state dominated by Democrats.

“It was very important I think because it shows that there is a market here in Massachusetts, a deep blue state, for people who care about the same things as some of the redder states in the country,” said Stephen Moynahan of Marlborough, Massachusetts. “And I’m really encouraged to see everybody coming out here.”

According to the the buzz on Twitter, there was some leftist infiltration:

ConTchr There was only a slim number of moonbat commies compared to the crowd… only 5% were crashers. #BostonTeaParty

ConTchr It was obvious who the moonbats were: Cheech & Chong types – strung out, hung over & just crawled out of parents’ basement. #BostonTeaparty

Here are a couple of the crashers’ signs:

Lame! The crashers were reportedly very impressed with themselves.

A comment from someone who was at the Boston Tea Party:

I served as event marshal today in Boston, keeping the peace, and saw a bunch of fake protesters there. They were incredibly easy to spot, and fooled nobody, even the media. Few attempts at spoofing racism or homophobia as far as I could tell, instead mostly trying to act stupid, presumably like Palin. Weird to see people who were doing their best to try to appear stupid at every opportunity, but who simultaneously *were* being stupid. It was an odd, multilayered effect.

GOP Video: Your Taxes, Their Spending

Just in time for Tax Day, another fine video by GOP.gov:

One thing about the  Obama Administration that has been “historic”, and unprecedented is it’s profligate taxing and spending. In just over a year, Democrats in Washington have proposed trillions of dollars in new taxes  — and passed hundreds of billions in new taxes to pay for their government takeover of our health care.

Tea Party Racism Caught On Tape!

“PRESIDENT OBAMA, WHITE BOY!!!”:

That’s the only racial slur I’ve heard at a tea party, and I’ve been to plenty.

I totally swiped that from Dan Riehl, but to make up for it, I’m sending you over there to watch this must-watch video: “Teabagged”!

Any Stupid Signs You See Tomorrow at Your Local Tea Parties Will Be This Guy’s Fault

Jason Levin, Schmuck

The clown who’s behind the national “Crash The Tea Party” campaign  is not only an up and coming community organizer, but an aspiring comedian, to boot, having said this about himself on his MySpace page:

“As a black lesbian trapped in the body of a straight white man, I am able to pass as a member of the establishment wile still maintaining my oneness with the spirit of the Earf Muvah. I’m currently being sued by my inner child for molestation…but trust me, the charges are baseless.”

I’ll pause until the laughter dies down….

What more:

Levin told the AP Monday, he “had over 65 leaders in major cities across the country trying to recruit members to infiltrate tea party events for April 15.”

The mission of crashtheteaparty.org is simple. “Infiltrate and dismantle” the movement from the inside out.  The group’s strategy is to impersonate tea party supporters and portray them as right-wing extremists in front of the news cameras in order to discredit the cause. The biggest Tax Day Tea Party takes place in Washington DC on April 15th.

Levin went on to say “Every time we have someone on camera saying that Barack Obama isn’t an American citizen, we want someone sitting next to him saying, ‘That’s right, he’s an alien from outer space!’” Levin also did not shy away his prior accusations that most tea party supporters are “racists, morons, and homophobes.”

I think there are going to be a lot of disoriented and disillusioned lefties out there, tomorrow, because very few tea partiers fit the stereotypes they want to paint us with.

But the cool part is, every stupid, ignorant thing captured on film, tomorrow, whether it’s a result of their efforts, or not, can be effectively blamed on noted crackpot, Jason Levin.

Thanks, Jason!

Report: Former NH Dem Party Chair Heading Up “Crash The Tea Party” Efforts

Via JWF, according to NowHampshire.com:

New Hampshire Democrats are engaged in a statewide search for liberal activists willing to attend so-called tea parties on Thursday and carry signs expressing racist or fringe sentiments, a Democratic source with knowledge of the effort tells NowHampshire.com.

According to the source, who sought anonymity for fear of reprisals, the Dems’ last minute scramble reflects a growing obsession among party leaders that they need to discredit the tea party movement soon or it will overwhelm them come the November election.

Former Democratic State Party Chairman Kathy Sullivan is heading up the search, the source said. Sullivan has been calling and e-mailing liberal activists trying to get them to attend tea parties in different parts of the state and hold signs denying the authenticity of President Barack Obama’s birth certificate and make racially disparaging comments to reporters.

“This is Kathy’s [Sullivan] project,” the source told NowHampshire.com. “She is absolutely obsessed with painting the tea party people as racists.”

Similar “crash the tea party” efforts are taking place throughout the country on Tax Day.

If she pulls it off, this won’t be the first time Sullivan has endeavored to manufacture a racist controversy regarding the tea party movement. Last month Sullivan and other Democratic leaders attempted to portray a “white pride” rally in Concord held by a Massachusetts-based white supremacist organization as a tea party. Sullivan was forced to retract her bogus accusation.

Really, this is bottom of the barrel stuff. Does it get any lower in party politics?

Oh, btw, guess who *hearts* Kathy Sullivan for what she did in NH leading up to the 2006 ” Democratic tidal wave”:

Democrats across America have a lot to learn from what you accomplished, Kathy. I’ll bet.

The Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing this morning with AG Eric Holder with most Senators asking questions related to the 9/11 terror trials in NYC, capturing OBL, and the plans to close Gitmo.

Michelle Malkin covered the hearings, here, noting that Holder refused to release the names of political appointees at DOJ with national security conflicts of interest.

Senator Sessions appeared on Fox to discuss the hearing, and Holder’s surprising admission that NYC is still being considered as the site to try KSM.
