4. He has some great videos on YouTube.
Someone on DU posted a video by him and they thought he was for real. He keeps up the spoof in the comments section on YouTube also. It's hilarious.

5. UPDATE: Was the Boston Tea Party crowd a disappointment?

Was the Boston Tea Party crowd a disappointment?
April 15, 2010
By Conor

<snip>

The Boston Globe this morning said there were 6,000 in attendance. The Boston Herald says 5,000. Politico says 3,000. And Tea Party leader Mark Williams unsurprisingly estimated a crowd of 10,000.

Since I assume a great majority of attendees at the event were Boston Herald readers (the paper actually got a plug from the stage apparently), I am going to use their number and say it the crowd was around 5,000.

Is that a disappointment?

As recently as Tuesday, Garrett Quinn noted on his new Boston.com blog that organizers would be happy with 10,000 (I take that to mean they were expecting more).

And remember: There were at least as many counter-protesters intermingling freely with the TeaKlan.

Not to mention at least a hundred or so vendors who may or may not have had a political agenda.
