While not every rally in San Francisco is newsworthy, Thursday's 'tea day' tax filing day protest in Union Square was unique due to its heavy right-wing tint. (Other than anti-abortion rallies and lynchings, the far right doesn't come close to the sky high number of progressive public outcries.)

We will admit, however, to being impressed by the Palin clan's ability to stay on-topic during the rally; something of a rarity when compared to San Francisco's multi-agenda protests.

Look for more festive photos of Thursday's 'tea party' gathering on SF Appeal, generic1's blog, SF Bay Guardian, Generik11, davitydave, and Toasted Blog.
