This poster is hilarious... even if grossly inaccurate.
The occupy movement has had much more headlines and exposure than the tea party and have converted it in to nothing.
Reason: The occupiers are trying to re-live their perceptions of the 60's (most weren't alive so they just froth over their college professor's tall tales)... while the tea party actually formed to get something accomplished.... and they did.
