Former Tea Party Express spokesman Mark Williams, who stepped down from the group after making a series of racist remarks, has a plan to "infiltrate and sabotage" the Obama campaign by volunteering as a campaign worker.
In an interview with TPM, Williams could not specify what exactly his subterfuge would entail, but said it would probably "come under the general heading of 'not exactly representing him in a fine light.'"

In a blog post called "Take Down Obama from the Inside" , Williams compared his plan to everything from the Trojan Horse, to a prankster's "Crash The Tea Party" campaign (which he falsely attributed to the SEIU), to a storyline on 1980s TV show Dallas. "While many variations have evolved," he wrote, "the basic idea remains the same; infiltrate and sabotage."
"It is the duty of every American Citizen to do everything within their power to disrupt and defeat the domestic enemy that currently occupies the corridors of power in Washington and a dangerous number of state capitols," Williams continued.
The plan is simple: President Obama launched his reelection campaign Monday, which includes a web page to sign up to be a volunteer. Williams signed up, and told TPM that he's going to "work from the inside to disrupt and derail" the campaign.
When asked what he specifically plans to do to accomplish this, Williams said: "You really don't know until you're presented with the opportunity." He added that he's already heard from a few people who want to help out, and that he's meeting with other Tea Party leaders about organizing the membership for the effort. "I am looking forward to seeing my fellow patriots on the "inside" working to become monkey wrenches in the machinery of Marxist despotism," he wrote on his blog.
Williams also told TPM that he's not worried the Obama campaign will get wise to his scam, even though he posted about it on a public website: "I don't think they're anywhere near that bright, based on the President's performance over the past few years."
They may not be bright, according to Williams, but they sure are sneaky. From his blog:
Eerily enough the Obama campaign web site automatically filled in my home address when I entered my email address. I say "eerily" because I used an AOL address that I keep as a SPAM catch all and have never used to contact the campaign or the White House. I wonder how they had my home address?
TPM readers will recall that Evan McMorris-Santoro dubbed Williams the "King Of 'Accidental' Racism" after he repeatedly made racist comments, then repeatedly argued that they had been misconstrued. Some greatest hits: He called Allah a "monkey-god," said the NAACP is "racist" and "make[s] more money off of race than any slave trader, ever," and referred to Obama our "half white, racist President." The subsequent controversy led to his resignation.

  • "Eerily enough the Obama campaign web site automatically filled in my home address when I entered my email address."

    Your browser does that, idiot.
  • LMFAO
    "And the campaign also knew my password!"
    This guy is definitely a force to be reckoned with.
  • Mark Williams....SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPER GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENIUS!

    (With apologies to Wile E. Coyote, from whom Mark apparently got his penchant for bright ideas that got nowhere fast...)

    Beat me to it.
  • It would also likely have automatically filled in his phone number also - if he had good enough credit to have one in his name. :D :D

    Wow - the sheer idiocy level of these people is beyond measure.
  • He knows that I bet. He probably also knows that the vast majority of teatards who would bother looking at his blog in the first place do not know that. It will therefore circulate as a viable conspiracy theory factoid.
  • I don't think he knew it. When he first posted his clever plan to infiltrate SEIU Wisconsin solidarity rallies someone pointed out that his website, marktalk.com, domain registration used his home address and phone number.
  • I was just about to post the same thing. WOW! What a bozo!
  • Looking back at the tangled web -- a million talking points for our tea party friends:

    Be sure to share it. Also -- why not a movie night? They have this at Netflix:

    Can't figure out all of the publicly ridiculed and deflated conservadopes that still think their shat don't stank. Starting with McCain/Pallor.
  • OoohAaaah 44 minutes ago
    Well, I'm sure this is going to motivate progressives like it's 2008 all over again.
  • Pretty easy to see why he is an "ex" TP leader.
  • Not really his qualifications for the job seem to be top notch and you know as well as I stupidity and public exhibition of that stupidity has never been a fault among the baggers.If anything it's a badge of honor and a prerequisite for membership and status among them. They needed a cut-out man at that moment and he unluckily got volunteered sort of like Scooter Libby.
  • Teatards finding a way to fabricate the voter fraud they're always demagoguing but for which no evidence exists in 3...2...1...

    So basically, he's going to act like a College Republican fratboy asshole in a student senate election and expect to get away with it because he's white. Whatever. The Donald Segretti suite at your local federal minimum security prison is waiting for you.
  • Comes with a free tube of KY on the pillow...

    No need to "infiltrate & sabotage", which sounds sneaky, like something Joe McGinniss or Bill Ayers would do. Just distribute copies of Jack Cashill's revealing & incisive book, "Deconstructing Obama". The truth will set us free.
  • Apparently freedom is going to be a scarce commodity amongst you and your ilk you wouldn't recognize the truth if it jumped up and bit you on some sensitive portion of your anatomy.
  • Hey Sailor, has God called Palin to run for president yet?
  • Not yet, but that's only because Michelle Bachmann has been hogging all His attention lately.

    I wonder if He ever allows himself to roll His eyes, like a priest suffering his third hour in the confessional?
  • GPFandango 36 minutes ago
    I worked with him in the mid 90's when he was actually the liberal talker! I asked him what had happened since then, and mentined teabaggers. He then did what all good right wing talk show hosts did, turned it around and called ME a homophobe and racist. The man is a klass act.
  • It almost brings me to tears to hear how much teabaggers love democracy. Infiltrating and sabotaging a campaign is the most patriotic thing one can do. These people astound me with their integrity. Fucking douchebags.
  • WiscoJoe 33 minutes ago
    How does an infamous political celebutard like Williams go undercover? Pimp suit? Better leave those sunglasses on Mr. Williams. No politically aware Dem operative could ever possibly see through your disguise. ...And I'm fairly certain a "trojan horse" strategy doesn't work if it's announced in advance. It can't be that Williams is just saying something provocative to get a few minutes of attention? No teabagger could ever be that self-interested and opportunistic, could they?
  • Allan Brauer 31 minutes ago
    LOL! As if the Obama campaign volunteers in and around the Sacramento area where this douchebag lives don't know his fugly face and disgraced name already...
  • rgranniss 25 minutes ago
    His not passing out flyers in his neighborhood will definitely give Palin the edge in '12. May as well pack it in, Obama. Game over, man. Game over.
  • LOL
  • liberalviper 23 minutes ago
    Real mature, Williams. Staying true to your teabagger label, I hope some guy with sweaty hairy balls dunks them into your fat mouth while you're asleep in the gutter somewhere.

    I knew a GOP couple who used to register as Dems at their vacation home in New Hampshire, even though they live down here, so that they could vote for whichever candidate who, if he or she won the NH Democratic presidential primary, would cause the biggest problem for the Dems chances of winning in the general election. I told him that I thought that, while legal, it was pretty despicable -- elections are not supposed to be a tactical game where someone can use tactics to turn defeat into victory -- they are supposed to be a reflection of the popular will. And they understood the criticism, but did it anyway, because that's what the GOP has become -- a party devoted to winning at all costs, no matter how dishonestly, no matter how far from "representative government" the end result turns out to be. Because today's Republican Party is not interested in democracy, or fairness, or open and honest elections, or truly representative government -- they are interested only in winning. The only representative government they want is a government that represents GOP interests and only GOP interests. Even when Obama won by 9 million votes in 2008, the right started 2009 by claiming that the things Obama won his race on -- e.g., health care reform, financial reform, etc. -- were "opposed" by "the people" who had just voted him by a 9 million vote margin. And they got away with it, thanks to a lazy and corrupt media.

    The only difference here is that this is not only despicable, it is also dishonest and it sounds like it will end up being illegal also. I hope this POS who calls himself a man gets his karmic reward -- which would mean that he gets caught in that act of committing whatever acts of amateurish bullshit he considers "sabotage", causing both he and his party to be humilated, to the point where his wife leaves him to start a super hot sexual relationship with a very well endowed leftist intellectual who satisfies her in ways that she could only dream about when she was living with the shriveled up excuse for a human being that is her husband . . .while, at the same time, Obama wins re-election by 12 million votes. Now that would be karma.

    What a freaking maroon. He's off to a great start.
  • fargo116 18 minutes ago
    Sneaky as in watching his every move and feeding him al kinds of total bullshit?
  • It's Pat 14 minutes ago
    Isn't this the guy that said he would don SEIU tshirts and go cause trouble in Wisconsin?
    Seems the only ideas he has are of sabotage. Does he actually do anything other than come up with dirty tricks?
  • Besides potentially being criminal, this plot proves that the Republican Party is in one giant mess. Their field is so bad that Tea Bagger jokers need to "sabotage" Obama to have a chance. And what if "sabotage" = violence?
