Teabaggers Plan To Impersonate WI Union Protesters
Teabaggers plan to impersonate union protesters: "Our goal is to make the gathering look as greedy and goonish as we know that it is, ding their credibility with the media and exploit the lazy reporters who just want dramatic shots and outrageous quotes for headlines. Even if it becomes known that we are plants, the quotes and pictures will linger as defacto truth."

Game on.

2. The question we're watching play out now is,

which matters more, the infowar or the p.r. war? Or, is Rove correct in his assertion that the truth no longer matters?

5. They would have to learn to spell, for starters.
That would be too much effort.

8. I wish it were so.
However, I recall last summer a handful of teabaggers garnering a huge amount of media exposure.

17,000 Wisconsin protesters, not so much.

21. I wish. No, they are playing a huge role
in this. Their efforts helped elect Republican governors all over the country. And when my local news show the protests in Wisconsin they focus on Teabaggers with signs. They give the far right media cover.

Enough is enough with the socialist party. These people are dangerous and a threat to the republic, IMO these people in their “delay” of the vote have agitated and escalated the situation at the capitol of WI. Furthermore their actions are in fact setting a new BAD precedent that we will see events like this repeat over and over again throughout the nation by radical elected socialists.

The Wisconsin legislative RATS just bought-en their demise…

Wisconsin Democrats are now refugees, maybe they should go back to there mother country of Russia.


FAIL!!:rofl: :puke:

ON edit: I purposefully did not spell check so you can get the real authentic "teabagger" flavor.

15. Joe Scarborough was showing video of "protesters" holding vile signs in WI this morning...
saying that the only reason the signs aren't getting much media coverage is due to the "liberal media bias." He added that all the teabaggers' vile signs were run on loops all day long. If he finds out that they are really teabaggers doing this, will he apologize? I doubt it.

17. They should surround them and then ...
... well, it doesn't involve shouting, but it does involve sign placement in prominent bagger orifices.

20. Unfortunately we can't impersonate teabaggers to make them look like thugs and idiots
because, well, they act like that on their own.
