How About This "Progressive"?

[sitarro]

I'm sure that the blind leftist on this board will be just like the shrill ass holes that commented on this guy, agreeing with the dishonest crap he and others are doing. The reason this guy could be successful is the extreme ignorance and hate from the left makes them extremely easy to manipulate....... they not only don't have a clue what truth is, they don't want to know the truth.

Outcrazying The Crazy: How A Prankster Plans To Infiltrate And Destroy The Tea Party Movement


Meet Jason Levin, quite possibly the scariest man in the tea party universe. An Oregon technology consultant, Levin is the leader of Crash The Tea Party, a plan to take down the tea party from the inside. Levin says he's got a growing cadre of supporters across the country, and conservatives from the message boards to the set of the Sean Hannity's show are getting nervous.

"Our plan is not to shout them down," Levin told me yesterday, "but to infiltrate them and push them farther from the mainstream."

The scheme reads like a sequel to "Being John Malkovich": Levin's group of protesters plan to get in the heads of tea partiers at the Tax Day Tea Parties nationwide Thursday and manipulate them right out of relevance. They'll dress like tea partiers, talk like tea partiers and carry signs like tea partiers. In fact, according to Levin they'll be completely indistinguishable from tea partiers, except for one thing -- they won't be out-crazied by anyone.
"Our goal is that whenever a tea partier says 'Barack Obama was not born in America,' we're going be right right there next to them saying, 'yeah, in fact he wasn't born on Earth! He's an alien!" Levin explained. He said that by making the tea parties sound like a gathering of crazy people -- his group's goal -- the movement will lose its power.

Ohhhhhhhhhhh.......this explains Mark Williams and his entire organization known as the Tea Party Express. Got it. Thanks.

The entire Tea Party itself is a left wing plant


How else can we get them to run such bizarre candidates as Republicans?

 

[Truthmatters]

You do realise Carl Rove invented this tactic right?

Karl Rove - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



In the fall of 1970, Rove used a false identity to enter the campaign office of Democrat Alan J. Dixon, who was running for Treasurer of Illinois. He stole 1000 sheets of paper with campaign letterhead, printed fake campaign rally fliers promising "free beer, free food, girls and a good time for nothing", and distributed them at rock concerts and homeless shelters, with the effect of disrupting Dixon's rally. (Dixon eventually won the election). Rove's role would not become publicly known until August 1973. Rove told the Dallas Morning News in 1999, "It was a youthful prank at the age of 19 and I regret it."

Some people simply have no common sense. We know and understand.

Just another loony Community Organizer Democrat. He's actually too stupid to understand that he is welcome to attend all Tea Party events. Yes even ignorant & misguided Socialists/Progressives are welcome. The Tea Partiers are standing up for all Americans and yes this even includes Community Organizer dummies like this guy. So Let him "infiltrate",he might just learn something.

He's a middle school tech teacher. I can't wait til the district catches him blogging on school time. It will happen.

Looks like this shithead has been spanked a little by his employer but didn't get fired because his employer, being a school district in Oregon, no doubt agrees with him, they just can't admit it.

Teacher Who Sought to 'Demolish' Tea Party Placed on Leave From School

An Oregon teacher who announced his intention to "dismantle and demolish the Tea Party" has been placed on administrative leave until his school district finishes its investigation into whether his political activity crossed the line.

The state's Teacher Standards & Practices Commission is also conducting an investigation into Jason Levin, a media teacher at Conestoga Middle School in Beaverton.

"Jason is on paid administrative leave," Maureen Wheeler, the school district's spokeswoman, told FoxNews.com. She described the suspension as "standard practice during an internal investigation."

Levin has come under fire for saying he'd do anything short of throwing rocks to bring down the Tea Party. In the last two days, the Beaverton School District has received thousands of e-mails and phone calls from people across the country who said they were outraged at his behavior.

The school district is defending Levin's right to free speech, but it's investigating whether he used district computers to spread his political message or worked on his "Crash the Tea Party" Web site during school hours.


Levin has said he would seek to embarrass Tea Partiers by attending their rallies dressed as Adolf Hitler, carrying signs bearing racist, sexist and anti-gay epithets and acting as offensively as possible -- anything short of throwing punches.

A source within the district said parents at Conestoga did not initially appear upset at Levin's anti-Tea Party activism -- but that changed in recent days as controversial statements continued to emerge.

Now, the source said, parents have become outraged by the severity of his political activism, and many have told the school board members that it has no place in a public school system.

Parents supported teachers who wore Obama buttons during the 2008 presidential election, the source said. But they say Levin has crossed the line.

Levin's Web site has since been changed, and the calls to infiltrate the Tea Party have been removed. The home page now simply reads: "Want to Show your support for Jason Levin? BUY A TEA-SHIRT."

Teachers in Oregon wore political buttons and the parents supported it? Damn I'm glad none of my family has kids in Oregon schools.

OP is a troll. Why else would someone post a article from over 3 months ago that has already been widely talked about on USMB?

To quote George W., "Mission Accomplished!"

The Oregon teacher who declared his mission to “dismantle and demolish” the Tea Party movement resigned before getting the ax, a school spokeswoman told FoxNews.com.

“He resigned earlier this week, on Monday,” Maureen Wheeler of the Beaverton School District said. “He resigned in lieu of termination.”

Wheeler said Levin learned the results of the district’s investigation and resigned. She would not comment on those investigative results.

Ah. His website is now defunct as well. Maybe he can get a job in San Francisco.
