The finer things keep shinin' through...

The LOSEianne protesters who gathered on Fountain Square on Sunday enjoy the finer things in life.

Let's get a few things clear:

1) The Tea Party protests are being bankrolled by right-wing foundations and corporate interests. That was unearthed weeks ago. They keep denying it, but it's true.

2) The protests appeal only to the financially secure. That's clear from photos I'll post later - and from some I've already posted.

3) A majority of the protesters were out-of-town hired agitators, and many of them stayed at one of Cincinnati's most expensive hotels.

That inn is the Westin downtown.

And their Westin stay is the talk of the blogosphere now.

I've already posted a video on YouTube to this effect:



The BTPers' defense? Well, they claim they were just using the Fountain Square garage, which they claim is accessed via the Westin lobby.

Wrong. The Fountain Square garage and the Westin garage are 2 different facilities. Others have pointed this out - yet the LOSEianners keep insisting they are the same garage, although they are not.

Assuming they used the Westin garage, this means one of 2 things:

1) They stayed at the Westin; or

2) They traipsed through the Westin's lobby despite not being guests there.

Take your pick.

Well, guess what? They stayed at the Westin. I've received several nasty comments from them, and many fall into the mold of, "Who cares? Successful people like us deserve the nicest hotels." Another now-familiar cry from them is, "Grassroots doesn't mean poor."

Those comments are damning, even as other BTPers denied staying at the Westin.

That they stayed in any hotel proves they're from out of town. Nothing wrong with that, but why do so many of them keep denying it?

Verbatim samples of right-wing comments I've received:

"... if I stayed at the Westin I am then part of some vast right wing conspiracy? You are paranoid."

"This is further evidence to the extent if [sic] lies and false propaganda the fascist left need to portray so thier [sic] 'social engineering experiement [sic]' can be continued. If working - financially INDEPENDENT people chose to stay at the Westin....GREAT. ..."

Make up your mind, idiots. Did you stay at the Westin or not?

I'm not going to give these spoiled babies a forum for their lies. They were on the lookout for someone calling them out just so they could swoop in and try to discredit them with a labyrinth of falsehoods and contradictions. I've been generous in allowing folks to comment on my works, but the other side already has Freak Rethuglic, a zillion right-wing blogs, talk radio, and much of the mainstream media to spout their propaganda.

But this time, nobody believes their lies. Boo hoo.
