Tea Party Conspiracy revealed from the mind of a New Yorker’s journalist

Cheesy Signage

Tea Party Conspiracy Revealed. 

A sound measure of the big time for the Tea Party is when the New Yorker deploys Jane Mayer to uncover that the Tea Party is the secret product of the Koch Brothers using their Midas fortune to lease buses, make cheesy signs and launch battalions of naive Americans into revolutionary battle. The Koch brothers explain everything heretofore puzzling to foolish observers. The Tea Party is nothing more than a rented mob with signs.  The Tea Party obeys the insidious orders of rabble-rousers who are quietly encouraged by the Koch Brothers agents.  The whole phenomenon of the Tea Party, starting in the spring of 2009 when the AIG fiasco and the stimulus genius were thrown into the news like so much fast food, has been a product of cunning, opportunism, provocation, race-mongering and lies printed sloppily on signs.  Nothing about the Tea Party is genuine except perhaps the very dated and clearly non-sensical metaphor of citizens protesting stupidity by authority.  In sum, the Tea Party is a conspiracy on the same scale as Wall Street.  Not all of it is lies, but no one would come back to another Tea Party event if there wasn't a trick, such as those cheesy signs and the leased buses.  The Soviets would envy this enterprise.  Billionaires hire peasants for the cost of signage.  The least satisfaction in this shock of revelation is that the Democrats can know that they were beaten at the polls by money and not by ideas.
