Here's a picture of the one black guy attending the tea parties
courtesy of faux news:


Tony Cook tries to drum up costumers with coupons outside Liberty Tax Service in Philadelphia (AP)

Working. Paying taxes. Fucking socialist. The irony is delicious.

3. Wait a minute.
Is he really a protestor? There's a tax service here that puts people on street corners with Statue of Liberty costumes. They've done it for a couple years now. It's just an advertising gimmick for their company.

5. Liberty Tax uses costume guys to get business like this
this time every year. I drove by one in Milwaukee Monday, and wondered who's really just running into the tax place on the spur of the moment this late.

If he's working for Liberty Tax, he's not a tea-bagger. He's working minimum wage for an accounting firm.

8. He's not. He's working for Liberty Tax Service to attract customers.
If Faux said he's a tea-bagger, they're lying. Well, it's Faux...so, they're lying.

13. Um no. That business is down the street from me.
I could probably walk over there, interview him personally and assure you that he has nothing to do with the teabaggers.

Fox = FAIL.

16. one gauddamm minute here,
all the teabaggers will tell ya, blacks don't work in Philadelphia. They're all on the welfare roles, and cities like Philadelphia are the reason our country is slipping into the hellhole of socialism, while the residents there eat steak and drive escalades on the WIC money they get from the government.
