A reader with a credible email address writes in to report:
Jen, my office is two blocks from the White House.
As you can imagine, we get a lot of Tea Partiers around here. The “I’m Taking Back America” shirted folks.
During one of their recent rallies, a guy paraded past here holding a sign that read, exactly:
NO REPRESENTATION
WITHOUT TAXATION!I am not making this up.
To be fair, I suppose it’s possible that a counter-protester was walking around with an intentionally-bungled sign. But given the number of badly-spelled signs and confused statements made by tea partiers that I’ve heard over the past year, I’m going with Occam’s razor. If it looks like a tea partier and quacks like a tea partier, it’s probably a tea partier.
