When your supporters are of the mindset/worldview that the left promotes, they won’t do anything out of principle - they’re too entitlement minded and lazy.

I DVR Your World (Cavuto) each day and a regular guest is a cute young libertarian Michelle Fields who specializes in these sorts of investigations on camera. She got OWS protesters to admit on camera that they were paid,

Here she is asking rich liberal millionaires who claim they want to pay higher taxes if they will donate money to the Federal government, she is really good :

Michelle Fields talks about the paid 'Occupy CPAC' protesters (interviews them)

Wonderful links sick... Michelle Fields called them out. I heard heard this 'the rich should pay more' stuff some years ago and mentioned that going to H&R Block - rather than hiring the best CPA's in town might have the same effect. Also mentioned the 'could send a check' thing...

She's on the same page with real people ... that's refreshing for what's become an elitist profession.

The ‘doting court eunuchs’ of the MSM fail to notice...

Thanks GOPJ.

Paid protesters are a Rat standard. About 10 years ago when the anti-income tax protests were in full swing virtually all the pro-tax “protesters” were paid. At quitting time, everyone of them would put their signs away and go home.

Thanks for sharing. Many freepers have one piece of the puzzle - yours in interesting. I didn't know about it. My piece is 'citizens' who write dem 'letters to the editor' are paid professionals too. I spoke to one years ago - he was telling me how thrilled they were to have access to the internet - so they could copy the way everyday Americans wrote.

The protesters also made an appearance at Romney's rally in Frankenmuth earlier in the day. There, a young man who identified himself only as Demarcus stood with a group of about five others, stopping reporters after the candidate's speech

He's an out of towner, probably from Flint, Saginaw, Mt Morris, Buena Vista, or Bridgeport. He was either paid, bussed, and given some form of compensation. There's aren't too many people named Demarcus in Frankenmuth.

IIRC, one could get some world-class fried chicken in Frankenmuth back in the day (1950s).

Zehnder’s is still there. So’s Bavarian Inn.
