Grover Greeted by Katrina 'Bathtub' Billboard

Daily Kos: [SECRET LOCATION REVEALED] Grover Greeted by Katrina ‘Bathtub’ Billboard; More dKos suggestions?

Working Assets, an organization that “helps busy people make a difference” organized an event that showed just how crude and dangerous Mr. Norquist’s ideas about government really are. Activists rented a truck whose cab was flanked by two twin billboards, featuring Field Marshal Norquist’s famous quote juxtaposed with an image of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina – a drowned New Orleans. Appropriately, at 8:45 this morning Working Assets parked the truck in front of the offices of Americans for Tax Reform, an essential part of Norquist’s New Right brigade, and the meeting place for that weekly breakfast strategy session of rightist revolutionaries.

With the conspicuous truck parked squarely in front of Americans for Tax Reform’s locked-down offices, a sizeable handful of activists, with original chants that point to America’s shameful standards in high school English curricula, courted media photographers while making their presence known to the planners of the watery death of American government. “246810 What if a hurricane comes again? 13579 Your rich friends will be just fine.” Someone missed that 9th grade lesson on meter.

Heh. I like this kind of protest – smart, effective, and right where they work. You rock, guys….
