The anti-bailout website AngryRenter.com is run by Washington insiders who own million-dollar houses.

As the WSJ reported, the website is the brainchild of Freedom Works, a think tank run by Dick Armey (pictured), a conservative Republican from Texas who once served in House leadership.

The Journal: “Angry they may be, but the people behind AngryRenter.com are certainly not renters. Though it purports to be a spontaneous uprising, AngryRenter.com is actually a product of an inside-the-Beltway conservative advocacy organization led by Dick Armey, the former House majority leader, and publishing magnate Steve Forbes, a fellow Republican. It’s a fake grass-roots effort — what politicos call an AstroTurf campaign — that provides a window into the sleight-of-hand ways of Washington.”

The Journal reports Armey is pulling down a comfortable $500,000 salary at Freedom Works, and that he lives on 78-acre spread in Texas valued at $1.7 million.
