From Oliver Willis:
In National Review, Jonah Goldberg writes that liberals were laughing at the teabagging protesters because their signs were crude and unprofessional and after all conservatives don’t have time for that sort of thing.
Well I should note two things about that.
1) We’re laughing at you because you guys hold up signs calling Obama a fascist and a non-citizen.
2) Conservative organizations like the Young America’s Foundation were, in fact, handing out professionally made signage:
A certain percentage of this effort was indeed "grassroots" but a certain percentage of it also was not, and admitting that would be a good start towards being taken more seriously as a political movement.
