I have seen the Tea Party, and it are us

Way before the infamous Teabonics group appeared on Flickr (chronicling the creative spelling of the Tea Party), there was this Tea Partier at a protest in2009:

Lo and behold, look what appeared in a comment on The Signal’s story about Frank Ferry:

OMG. Could it be that the most famous spelling-challenged Tea Partier pictured above actually resides in the SCV and is  Signal reader “really?”

    I wish I had the time to track down all of the photographs that are available of leftist, union, democrat or anti-war protest posters that are misspelled, include horrific grammar or are otherwise indicative of the fact that there are MORANS on both sides of the isle. Jeff, you are moving into the dark territory of a blogger that is incapable of holding those on his side to the same standards that he holds the opposition. I expect that from the lame-stream media but expect more from you.

    I wish I had the time to track down all of the photographs that are available of leftist, union, democrat or anti-war protest posters that are misspelled… It’s the ones advocating Jew hating that creeps me out the most.

    Jew Hating?
  10. Fred ButlerJune 7, 2010 at 3:39 pm
    Yep, Jew hating. For some reason the hard core lefties hate Jews.
  11. damageincJune 7, 2010 at 7:23 pm
    that flat out BullSHIT.
  12. CoastalSageJune 7, 2010 at 4:27 pm
    Yes the extreme wackos on the left, who are Jewish, hate Israel, hate Zionists, hate people who have Jewish blood. Their self righteousness leads them to hate their own people. The are called rodef. Look it up. Just look at the TV Interview video of some of the clowns who were those blockade busting boats last week. Just look at MIT Professor Avram Noam Chomsky and Democracy Now host Amy Goodman. On the left it’s not hip to be square. It’s hip to be anti-Semitic.
  13. damageincJune 7, 2010 at 7:24 pm
    Easy to just make up BS. Grow up
  14. mikeJune 7, 2010 at 7:39 pm
    Noam Chomsky hate people with Jewish blood. That’s a new one.

    “Isle?”
  16. BrianJune 7, 2010 at 10:16 am
    Lame stream media? That sir is idiotic and a Palinism. You have lost any credibility you may have had!
  17. Samuel AdamsJune 7, 2010 at 10:56 am
    The bigger question is where are the editors at the Signal?
  18. damageincJune 7, 2010 at 12:11 pm
    What do signal editors have to do with it?
  19. Timothy MyersJune 7, 2010 at 11:02 am
    On the photo: Hopefully we don’t have any Cardinals fans running around loose here. Go Los Doyers!!!!

    Unions bad. Halliburton electrocuting our soldiers and others must be good. Are you so partisan that corporations must come before workers or end users? Strong unions mean saying NO to safety violations which cause harm and death without fear of dismissal. I guess you also agree with the wage disparity between executives and workers. The profit at all cost, screw worker safety which we see in the Gulf. I guess the worst that can happen to many of you is a paper cut!
  21. navigatorJune 7, 2010 at 11:21 am
    Brian. Unions have outlived their usefulness. Now they just contribute to the inequity of the cost of production here versus overseas. As for representation, ask any rank and file member how many times they have been consulted when the union has spent their hard earned dollars supporting some jerk or proposition that they don’t agree with. How many union workers have been hurt or killed in a workplace accident. The union didn’t help them much. Not everyone is an evil business owner. Many of us are just trying to make a living as well.
  22. BrianJune 7, 2010 at 11:50 am
    Unions are the boogeyman of the right! Just another thing to bitch about while failing to address the real cause of job loss. CORPORATE GREED!
  23. PetzJune 7, 2010 at 12:22 pm
    Teh vasst magority of the piktures with ncorrect speling are from Demokrat plants edukated in publik skools.
  24. damageincJune 7, 2010 at 1:11 pm
    Petz knows because he is a democrat plant… So weak.
  25. GangFangJune 7, 2010 at 1:05 pm
    Could this enlightened patriot be a local plumber? http://www.moran-plumbing.com/
  26. BrianJune 7, 2010 at 1:20 pm
    Petz has been smoking his plants!
  27. soccermomJune 7, 2010 at 5:51 pm
    I thought the spelling of “moron” as “moran” was internet inside joke. At least it is on the board I frequent.
  28. CCJune 8, 2010 at 6:33 am
    I agree with Kevin. Although this is funny, it is becoming all too common for Jeff to attack the Right. Although I know you are liberal Jeff, I thought you could keep an inkling of fairness about you. ~~Disappointed
  29. MKUltraJune 8, 2010 at 9:50 am
    Soccermom – LGK?
  30. Kevin D. KorenthalJune 8, 2010 at 12:29 pm
    Hey Jeff, it would have been a better farce if you had included some of the blunderous posters that liberals have used over the years too. Let me help you out with a few I found. http://mcmeador.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/tomany2.jpg?w=450&h=318 http://mcmeador.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/prop_8_protest-women.jpg?w=450&h=337 I especially like this one because it is the work of BIG LABER (hehe) http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IQiyoaS67kY/SaxCPiA-3DI/AAAAAAAABAQ/gqoe2mOWweM/s1600/MS_BREKER.JPG But this one is really great because it is regards to edumacation: http://rightwingnews.com/graphics/universityofwashingtonsocialists.jpg

    Those are republican plants… see not the only one that can do it.
  32. DamageincJune 8, 2010 at 1:49 pm
