Yesterday, Sarah Palin gave a Tea Party on Boston Common to protest taxes, and it proceeded in fairly predictable fashion. According to reports, Palin rehashed lines like "We'll keep clinging to our Constitution and our guns and religion - and you can keep the change" and "Let's drill, baby, drill" for an excited audience of astonishingly ignorant people. One infiltrator asserts that "They played taps and I had to tell people to take their hats off," and goes on to provide our favorite excerpt from the protest:

The Common hosted a thousand or so variously-clad protesters this afternoon as part of a nationwide protest movement of "Tax Day Tea Parties" scheduled for April 15th. Bostonist was there with camera in hand surveying the scene.
