BREAKING: 'Occupy CPAC' Protestors Paid $60 Per Head; Brain Freeze Over Simple Question

Today, outside CPAC's annual meeting at Washington's Marriott Wardman Park, union supporters and Occupy DC activists gathered to protest.

One lady wearing an Occupy DC lapel pin proudly displayed a sign stating "Walmart for President."

Although given multiple opportunities to explain what her sign meant, she stumbled aimlessly for the right words, eventually stating, "I'm going to have to think about that."

Protesters at Friday’s “Occupy CPAC” event, organized by AFL-CIO and the Occupy DC movement, told The Daily Caller that they were paid “sixty bucks a head” to protest outside the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C.

One protester told TheDC that all the “Occupy” activists were being paid to protest, and that his union, Sheet Metal Workers Local 100, approached him about the money-making opportunity.

“I have nothing nice to say about Local 100. … They just told me ‘you wanna make sixty bucks? So c’mon,’” the protester said.

Fields adds that few of the protestors were willing to speak on camera.
