So was Jimmy Carter. You expect it to give any sympathy to smoene with so much in common with CARTER?

Interesting that the guy admits he’s never been politically active before this rally. From what I’ve read, a huge percentage of the Teabaggers admit to never having been actively involved in politics, or voting at all.

But for some reason, these howl-at-the-moon lazy-ass stupid noninvolved non-voters all of a sudden start coming out of the woodwork now. I wonder why this time gets them going, when a war started on a lie didn’t?

I believe it’s more the latter that leads to the fear of the former.

> Again, since you all have never been able to do this, I dare you to find even one post that _actually_ (as in, not in your imagination and/or paranoia) fits that description. The opposite is actually true - you all try to “prove” your points by calling me names, exaggerating and making things up. It’s very immature.

When I call you names, you’ll feel it.

I’m willing to haggle on the dimensions of your ass, but by your own admission you’re receiving money from the government that you didn’t work to earn. There’s no point to be “proven”; there’s just you stamping your little bunioned foot and thinking you’ve made a point. That percussive sound you hear isn’t applause; it’s laughter, and not the merry kind.

There are logical arguments to be made against public assistance, but they’re best best left to those with a consistent value system, not self-oblivious whiners whose only main gripe is that some other bum latched onto a wetter nipple. The best thing you could do for your “cause” is to shut the fuck up and never once mention it again. You’re the board’s resident laughingstock, and that’s one hell of a goddamned accomplishment.

Why did reading this word make me think of the scene in _Blazing Saddles_ when the black sheriff first enters Rockridge? Yet in the end he had them eating out of his hand-guess that’s where the comparison ends.

Maybe the first line of his very first speech as president, should have been

“Excuse me while I whip this out” 😃

Perhaps he should try holding a gun on himself during the next State of the Union address.

Then Rush Limbaugh can hand him a pie and tell him, “Sorry about the ‘Barack the Magic Negro.’”

Well, the guy who threw dollar bills at the man apologized.

It’s nice to see at least one person in the teabagging movement coming to their senses.

He will, but Obama will need to have the good taste not to mention it to anyone.

Well, I guess that’s what I get for not reading over the past day’s worth of posts. I just the story myself this afternoon.
