If you intend to discredit a movement by infiltrating that movement and acting stupidly, would you advertise that intention widely? No? Well, that is exactly what Jason Levin, an Oregon middle school teacher, did. He put up a website and granted television interviews to solicit support for his campaign to discredit the Tea Party movement by showing up at its rallies carrying signs inciting racism and violence.
So, is Levin that stupid or is he actually an undercover Tea Partier trying to lend credence to the idea that the bad players at the rallies are outsiders?
