A liberal organizer told the Daily Caller on Thursday afternoon that he paid some Hispanics to attend Occupy DC protests happening in the nations capital.
TheDC attended the protest event, an expansion of the Occupy Wall Street movement that began in New York City. Some aspects of the protest, it turned out, are more Astroturf than grassroots.
One group of about ten Hispanic protesters marched behind a Caucasian individual from the DC Tenants Advocacy Coalition, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting rent control in Washington, D.C.
Asked why they were there, some Hispanic protesters holding up English protest signs could not articulate what their signs said.
Interviewed in Spanish, the protesters told conflicting stories about how their group was organized. Some said it was organized at their church, and that they were there as volunteers. Others, however, referred to the man from the DC Tenants Advocacy Coalition the only Caucasian in the group as their boss.
TheDC asked that organizer whether he was paying the group to attend the protest, and he conceded that some protesters arent volunteers.
Some of them are volunteers. Some of them arent, he explained. I cant identify them. Im not going to get into an identification game.

the GOP when asked about these protests should reply
“I understand why they are angry, this administration has lost so many jobs and people want jobs. They see an economy which has got worse under this president and they are angry.
I understand why they are angry that Wall street has given millions tom this administration and how they have helped ot bail out certain companies while backing companies like GE which send jobs to China”
Did he pay minimum wage? Did he do his withholding? Unemployment compensation?
Reminds of the below funny pic. LOL.......
