Sarah Palin at Koch brothers-sponsored event

Sarah Palin appeared at today's Teaparty rally in Wisconsin and as can be seen in the screengrab below, she's standing in front of a banner promoting "Americans for Prosperity" and standing at a podium proclaiming "I Am AFP!"

AFP is funded by the billionaire Koch Brothers, owners of Koch Industries. Most on the left oppose them because of their funding of (supposed) conservative causes, including professional global warming deniers and advocates against social welfare programs.

Many on the right support them despite the fact that they also fund groups that advocate for loose and even open borders. And, David Koch joined with George Soros to give the ACLU millions of dollars. They amply illustrate how the pretend-patriots in the teaparties are useful idiots: they're being led around by those who advocate loose and open borders and who help fund the ACLU.
