Taranto (scroll down) picked up on ... actually, I'm not sure if this use of a photo that prominently displayed a ProtestWarrior* poster was an accident, or else the machinations of a VRWC Merry Prankster. Probably the former, although given the generally dour nature of the article it accompanied, you have to wonder. On the other hand, the rest of the paper doesn't seem to be especially ideologically driven (tsk, tsk, James; trying to get BotW out before 5 PM, were we?) so maybe the layout editor were just trying to yank this Crandell guy's chain.

*Interestingly enough, a couple of days back I'm having a conversation with one of my coworkers, and it turns out that his brother is involved with the group.

Hrmmph. Well, it's interesting to me, anyway. I don't expect that everything I post is going to get a response...
Moe, short attention span here, the site you reference is a wall of words, eyes glaze...

Now that's funny.

Oh. Short version: ProtestWarrior is made up of a bunch of right-wing folks who decided to stare into the abyss, pointing and laughing all the while; they go to antiwar protests and instigate. They're either wicked funny or fairly sad, depending on your point of view.
