Tea Partiers Dress Up in Union Gear

An update on Tea Party fashion: it has evidently become vogue for Tea Partiers to wear Service Employees International Union t-shirts, donning the garb of the movement's biggest villain next to President Obama. The reasons for doing so, as of yet, are unknown.

Two blog posts at St. Louis Activist Hub, a progressive website in St. Louis, purport to show local Tea Party leaders Adam Sharp, Bill Hennessy (who runs the St. Louis Tea Party), and Jim Durbin (who runs the conservative blog 24th state) wearing SEIU gear.

Sharp harangues what appears to be Charles Jaco of local Fox 2 about the latter's use of the term "tea baggers"--a fair complaint--while wearing an SEIU t-shirt:

2. CAMERAS! CAMERAS! CAMERAS! And.........

remember what the Egyptians did to Mubarek's thugs. Stopped them, handcuffed them, and took their IDs for proof of their sympathies.

5. The ACLU has observers in yellow teeshirts. Look for them.

6. I can think of three reasons for them doing this.

• Stir up trouble while wearing the shirts so the trouble will be blamed on SEIU members.
  
• Get on camera wearing the shirts and espousing tea party viewpoints so those viewpoints appear to be endorsed by SEIU members.
  
• Get on camera wearing the shirts and espousing objectionable or stupid viewpoints that they want attributed to SEIU members.

7. They never understand that reasonable ideas don't need TRICKS.

If you have to resort to trickery or disguises in order to sell your ideas, they're probably not good ideas in the first place. Republicans never get this. It's always "ends justify the means." They're devoid of any scruples.

9. Keep an eye out for Phil Parlock and his son!

Top Ten Conservative Idiots 9/20/24

You have to feel sorry for Phil Parlock. I mean, the guy was just trying to exercise his First Amendment rights at a John Kerry campaign event, and he was viciously attacked by Democratic thugs. They even made his daughter cry!

"They just pounced on us," said Phil Parlock, "She was crying; they were pushing and shoving her." My God - will those evil Democrats stop at nothing? John Kerry must hate children!

Actually, it looks like it's Phil Parlock who hates children - see, this isn't the first time Mr. Parlock has made it into the papers after being "pounced on" at a Democratic rally. After he and his 12-year-old son Louis smuggled Bush signs into an Al Gore event back in 2000, Louis apparently hoisted a girl onto his shoulders. According to the Charleston Daily Mail, "'She walked up and said 'I'll get on your shoulders and hold a sign,' " Louis said. While she was sitting on Louis' shoulders waving a Bush-Cheney sign, a man who identified himself as a volunteer for the Gore campaign tried to pull the sign out of the girl's hands, Parlock said. He pulled so hard that Louis and the girl fell over. 'That sounds like an exaggeration,' said Sarah Feinberg, spokeswoman for Gore's West Virginia campaign."

And - would you believe it - Parlock was a victim of nasty liberals at a Clinton campaign event back in 1996 as well! Again, according to the Charleston Daily Mail, "The Huntington man said he was knocked to the ground by a Clinton supporter when he tried to display a sign that read 'Remember Vince Foster' ... 'It must have been a strict Democrat who did this,' Parlock said."

Yup, our Phil certainly has a habit of complaining to the media about Democratic "thuggery." Kinda makes you wonder why he took his young daughter to the event last week.

But then, once you realize that Parlock appears to have a relationship with the photographer that snapped the above pic, and that the man wearing the union shirt holding the ripped up sign looks suspiciously like one of his sons, and that Parlock even happened to be around when his local Republican party headquarters were shot at by a unknown assailant ...well, it just kinda makes you think. Funny how our Phil always seems to end up in the wrong place at the wrong time - with the media in tow.

10. Breitbart being there doesn't bode well. And who could forget the thug that put his foot

on that woman's head at a Ron Paul event.
