“N-Word” Sign Maker Now “Tea Party Columnist” for Washington Times
Edited on Fri May-21-10 10:05 AM by Ian David
So much for the right-wing lie that he isn't a "real" Tea Party leader: http://gatewaypundit.firstthings.com/2010/02/a-disgusting-media-lie-tpm-publishes-bogus-story-that-texas-racist-leads-tea-party/


“N-Word” Sign Maker Now “Tea Party Columnist” for Washington Times

Desperate times call for desperate measure, and Dale Robertson, who regards himself the founder of the tea party, has been brought on by the financially struggling Washington Times’s “Tea Party Report” blog. Robertson got caught in a lie when he first was seen parading around with a misspelled sign featuring the n-word, and then claimed the work was forged. Sadly, for him, we had him on tape contradicting his denial.

Tommy Christopher, who’s been covering this charade for Mediaite, suggests this could just be another PR stunt by a guy who seems desperate for attention.

Furthermore, the press release is from Robertson’s PR flack, not the Washington Times’. It’s not even clear that this is a paid gig, rather than another attempt by Robertson to market himself as a Tea Party Leader. The Tea Party Report “is written and edited by William J. Kelly and Laura Grock. Kelly also pens Bill Kelly’s Truth Squad for the Washington Times. We welcome all Tea Party leaders and enthusiasts to send us their news, opinions, and stories.”

Here's the Latest Crazy Teabagger Photo Scandal
POSTED BY: Mary Phillips-Sandy

Meet Dale Robertson. He's the founder of TeaParty.org and, according to TeaParty.org, "a man of courage and conviction, a rare commodity in today's topsy-turvy world."

Dale is pictured below holding a sign he made to express his convictions about today's topsy-turvy world. "Congress = Slave Owner, Taxpayer = Niggar," it reads.

3. You KNOW someone will bail them out...it will keep running.
Cuz "conservatives" need "balance"...not like they even know what left-wing means and how little "left-wing media" there really is...

4. I think I have read that it has never turned a profit. Ever.
Another example of that awesome free market at work.
