If you would just listen instead of looking for misspelled words you would know that they are focused on all spending.......
yeah, unsung...stop looking for mispelluns...
and aerial...I call B.S.
teabaggers only focus on Obama's healthcare spending...or else they would be standing side by side with anti-war protesters...
face it, you and your crowd have been duped by the likes of dick armey (he he...I love that name, dick armey and the teabaggers...a match made in heaven) and glenn beck...
It's clear as a bright blue sky that the teapartiers don't want any sort of change. They only really want the GOP back in power. This is evidenced by Sarah Palin speaking at their rally the same week she campaigns for McCain. How can you not see that the teapartiers are a joke??? You need to lose the blinders.
I've already stated that she is an idiot, and if you had read my previous posts on that topic it would have been obvious. I'm not the one with blinders on. I've stated McCain is a RINO and that he is only playing the game to get the vote. It all all the same from both parties, they keep electing the same people over and over expecting different results. You know what that is the definition for? Insanity.
McCain and Pelosi and Reid and Frank and Romney and Palin and about 90% of the rest can all go F themselves.
I would call those blinders when you support an organization that has her as their lead speaker. Or maybe that's just more hypocrisy.
As for McCain, Reid, Pelosi, Frank, and Palin going and fucking themselves.....agreed. But I would bet my bottom dollar that the majority of fox loving loons in the teabagger world would vote Sarah Palin in a second. Just look at the two clowns you have applauding this post. I"ve seen them supporting Palin throughout this board.
You can continue to pretend that the teabaggers are anything more than GOP fringers, but you are only fooling yourself. Blinders.
The funny part is that is all you guys got. All you do is point out misspelled words, cry racism, or use the term teabagger like it actually offends anyone. Forget debating the points they make that this administration is spending money so fast that they can't print it quick enough to keep up, that this administration is not change and that it is business as usual.
But someone, who granted probably is not as intelligent as you geniuses, forgets some punctuation and the whole thing becomes a bunch of crazies protesting the black man.
That is what makes me laugh. You refuse to see the big picture because you hate to admit that they are really right and that they make many valid points. Instead let MSM continue to think for you. You complain about the GOP toeing the party lines yet LIBERALS are far and away the most GUILTY of doing so. Keep missing the point, keep posting pictures about how some guy told the feds to keep their hands off his medicare, it is laughable you fall for it. You know who else laughs? Your leaders. They are laughing because you keep the same fools in power because you are too afraid to actually make real change. Take off the blinders.

actually for me it's the hypocrisy and stupidity of the teabaggers arguments...when some 70 year old man whines about socialism and he wants the gov't to leave his medicare alone...
or the person getting disability benefits yelling about socialism...or the out of work teabagger crying about spending as it started yesterday....
there points have been addressed...you and the teabaggers don't want to hear it....
Are SOME programs run by the government??? yes. Does that mean we want more?? no.

For contrast, look at the 1956 Republican Party Platform and tell me if the teabaggers wouldn't run President Eisenhower out of town on a rail:
On its Centennial, the Republican Party again calls to the minds of all Americans the great truth first spoken by Abraham Lincoln: "The legitimate object of Government is to do for a community of people whatever they need to have done but cannot do at all, or cannot so well do, for themselves in their separate and individual capacities. But in all that people can individually do as well for themselves, Government ought not to interfere."
Our great President Dwight D. Eisenhower has counseled us further: "In all those things which deal with people, be liberal, be human. In all those things which deal with people's money, or their economy, or their form of government, be conservative."
.....
We shall continue vigorously to support the United Nations.
We shall continue to oppose the seating of Communist China in the United Nations.
We shall maintain our powerful military strength as a deterrent to aggression and as a guardian of the peace. We shall maintain it ready, balanced and technologically advanced for these objectives only.
.....
...we pledge to pursue.... [f]urther reductions in taxes with particular consideration for low and middle income families.
---
We also propose....
Legislation to enable closer Federal scrutiny of mergers which have a significant or potential monopolistic connotations;
Procedural changes in the antitrust laws to facilitate their enforcement;
...Continuance of the vigorous SEC policies which are providing maximum protection to the investor and maximum opportunity for the financing of small business without costly red tape.
...
Under the Republican Administration, as our country has prospered, so have its people. This is as it should be, for as President Eisenhower said: "Labor is the United States. The men and women, who with their minds, their hearts and hands, create the wealth that is shared in this country—they are America."
... The record of performance of the Republican Administration on behalf of our working men and women goes still further. The Federal minimum wage has been raised for more than 2 million workers. Social Security has been extended to an additional 10 million workers and the benefits raised for 6 1/2 million. The protection of unemployment insurance has been brought to 4 million additional workers. There have been increased workmen's compensation benefits for longshoremen and harbor workers, increased retirement benefits for railroad employees, and wage increases and improved welfare and pension plans for federal employees.
I could go on, but I encourage everyone to contrast that extremely sensible and very broad platform to the narrow-minded, partisan, anti-American attitude taken by a huge chunk of the Republican party and their corporatist allies and teabagger drones.

Wow....Fox and the Baggers are sure fucking up America right now.
You mean like your use of the word "winded up" when you should have used "wound up"?
Glass house, meet brick.
whatever dude...i don't get my rocks off looking at tea party signs like you guys do.
let me guess. after you read what i wrote you had to go look through all my posts until you found something you could use ....right? get a life dude
I bet that brick would have been thrown by a democrat, then we listen to news stations talk about how violent republicans are.
No wonder America is a fucked up country, people can not even debate on a message board without trying to find fault with each other. And you expect the politicians to work together, right.
You got that right . Problem is all these liberals think their shit don't stink. They got all the answers, and anybody that doesn't see eye to eye with them is just an idiot. Makes them look really stupid and egotistical in my book.

Arrogance comes to mind as well...I don't know why people put themselves on the left right or the middle. I know myself in the past here in Canada I have voted, liberal, conservative or NDP in the past. I usually support who I think is the best for the country. I really don't vote now because most politicians are liars and cheats and only interested in whats best for themselves and the people who donated to their campaign. People should wants what's best for the country no matter who's leading the country.

I don't "get my rocks off" looking at teabagger signs. I ran across the Flickr album by accident.
I prefer to point out the uncivil nature, as well as the sheer idiocy, of the signs themselves, as well as the overall mindset of these poor people who are being bamboozled by the corporate aristocracy. Then again if you had been following this thread honestly instead of cheerleading people you agree with, you'd know that.
And actually, I remember that post of yours distincly, because of the strange usage of the words "winded up". I didn't have to do any long winded searches since it was on the same day - April Fools' Day, in a bit of irony.
Moreover, I don't go around criticizing posters here for grammatical or spelling errors - I make enough of them to know that nobody's perfect, so the fact that you actually had the chutzpah to bring up someone's mistake without looking at your own... who's the one that thinks his "shit don't stink" again?
So anyway, how does it feel to be hoisted on your own petard?

I'm as liberal as they come, yet I don't call people idiots who can actually back up what they say.
The problem with you is that you think freedom of speech means you can say whatever bullcrap you want and not get called on it. It goes both ways, dude. If you can't stand the heat, get the damn hell out of the kitchen.

Arrogance? We liberals had to put up with 8 years of Bush-Cheney lies, incompetence and even sheer criminality, so you'll forgive us if we say "I told you so" to all those morons who supported those jokers. And even with Obama in charge, we're STILL not getting our way most of the time either, so he doesn't escape criticism.
Besides, did you read my earlier post about the 1956 Republican Party Platform ? There was a time, not even that long ago, when the mainstream left and the right actually agreed on some very important principles of government. Now, what we're seeing is dogmatic pursuit of ideology, using fear-mongering, hateful, and even violent speech, by the right wing.
Sure, call us liberals arrogant. But at least we're right, and we have been right.

i could say the same about your asshat politicians on the right. you think you have all the answers and your shit doesn't stink...
1. tax cuts
2. small government
3. strong defense
4. market will straighten everything out
this is the same failed policy that has gotten us where we are today. if you would bring new ideas instead of this same old, tired, broken down, failed, strategy then people on the left might be willing to listen. until then, why would we recycle the same policies that have never worked before?? its clear none on the right will ever vote for anything that the congress or president proposes, so the dems are saying "fuck you, get out of the way, we will do it ourselves"... look how the gop are now steadfastly against drilling off the east coast when their 2008 campaign rally cry was "drill baby drill"...fucking babies...
the thing is, the issues that you all feel are important, like FREEDOM!!!!!!!!, abortion, taxes, immigration, etc are not the most important things to us. we favor the human side of things, jobs, health care for all, no war or torture...etc. if that is arrogant than i would rather be arrogant than a knob teabagger that has no idea what to even be angry about and has no idea about the history of their country......

I also never said claimed to be right, left or centre...also said I no longer partake in the silly exercise of voting because politician are only interested in self.

For contrast, look at the 1956 Republican Party Platform and tell me if the teabaggers wouldn't run President Eisenhower out of town on a rail:
On its Centennial, the Republican Party again calls to the minds of all Americans the great truth first spoken by Abraham Lincoln: "The legitimate object of Government is to do for a community of people whatever they need to have done but cannot do at all, or cannot so well do, for themselves in their separate and individual capacities. But in all that people can individually do as well for themselves, Government ought not to interfere."
Our great President Dwight D. Eisenhower has counseled us further: "In all those things which deal with people, be liberal, be human. In all those things which deal with people's money, or their economy, or their form of government, be conservative."
.....
We shall continue vigorously to support the United Nations.
We shall continue to oppose the seating of Communist China in the United Nations.
We shall maintain our powerful military strength as a deterrent to aggression and as a guardian of the peace. We shall maintain it ready, balanced and technologically advanced for these objectives only.
.....
...we pledge to pursue.... [f]urther reductions in taxes with particular consideration for low and middle income families.
---
We also propose....
Legislation to enable closer Federal scrutiny of mergers which have a significant or potential monopolistic connotations;
Procedural changes in the antitrust laws to facilitate their enforcement;
...Continuance of the vigorous SEC policies which are providing maximum protection to the investor and maximum opportunity for the financing of small business without costly red tape.
...
Under the Republican Administration, as our country has prospered, so have its people. This is as it should be, for as President Eisenhower said: "Labor is the United States. The men and women, who with their minds, their hearts and hands, create the wealth that is shared in this country—they are America."
...
The record of performance of the Republican Administration on behalf of our working men and women goes still further. The Federal minimum wage has been raised for more than 2 million workers. Social Security has been extended to an additional 10 million workers and the benefits raised for 6 1/2 million. The protection of unemployment insurance has been brought to 4 million additional workers. There have been increased workmen's compensation benefits for longshoremen and harbor workers, increased retirement benefits for railroad employees, and wage increases and improved welfare and pension plans for federal employees.
Holy crap, the Republican Party, pro-labor, pro-government, pro-regulation, pro-UN, pro-working class, pro-unions, pro-gressive even!
I could go on, but I encourage everyone to contrast that extremely sensible and very broad platform to the narrow-minded, partisan, anti-American attitude taken by a huge chunk of the Republican party and their corporatist allies and teabagger drones.

I don't "get my rocks off" looking at teabagger signs. I ran across the Flickr album by accident.
I prefer to point out the uncivil nature, as well as the sheer idiocy, of the signs themselves, as well as the overall mindset of these poor people who are being bamboozled by the corporate aristocracy. Then again if you had been following this thread honestly instead of cheerleading people you agree with, you'd know that.
And actually, I remember that post of yours distincly, because of the strange usage of the words "winded up". I didn't have to do any long winded searches since it was on the same day - April Fools' Day, in a bit of irony.
Moreover, I don't go around criticizing posters here for grammatical or spelling errors - I make enough of them to know that nobody's perfect, so the fact that you actually had the chutzpah to bring up someone's mistake without looking at your own... who's the one that thinks his "shit don't stink" again?
So anyway, how does it feel to be hoisted on your own petard?
I'm as liberal as they come, yet I don't call people idiots who can actually back up what they say.
The problem with you is that you think freedom of speech means you can say whatever bullcrap you want and not get called on it. It goes both ways, dude. If you can't stand the heat, get the damn hell out of the kitchen.
Arrogance? We liberals had to put up with 8 years of Bush-Cheney lies, incompetence and even sheer criminality, so you'll forgive us if we say "I told you so" to all those morons who supported those jokers. And even with Obama in charge, we're STILL not getting our way most of the time either, so he doesn't escape criticism.
Besides, did you read my earlier post about the 1956 Republican Party Platform ? There was a time, not even that long ago, when the mainstream left and the right actually agreed on some very important principles of government. Now, what we're seeing is dogmatic pursuit of ideology, using fear-mongering, hateful, and even violent speech, by the right wing.
Sure, call us liberals arrogant. But at least we're right, and we have been right.
1. tax cuts
2. small government
3. strong defense
4. market will straighten everything out
this is the same failed policy that has gotten us where we are today. if you would bring new ideas instead of this same old, tired, broken down, failed, strategy then people on the left might be willing to listen. until then, why would we recycle the same policies that have never worked before?? its clear none on the right will ever vote for anything that the congress or president proposes, so the dems are saying "fuck you, get out of the way, we will do it ourselves"... look how the gop are now steadfastly against drilling off the east coast when their 2008 campaign rally cry was "drill baby drill"...fucking babies...
the thing is, the issues that you all feel are important, like FREEDOM!!!!!!!!, abortion, taxes, immigration, etc are not the most important things to us. we favor the human side of things, jobs, health care for all, no war or torture...etc. if that is arrogant than i would rather be arrogant than a knob teabagger that has no idea what to even be angry about and has no idea about the history of their country......
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
Wait - Did he just say it's fucked up that people resort to constantly finding fault with each other and then you responded by agreeing and then finding fault with & insulting the side with which you disagree??

:? Huh? I didn't make any assumptions, nor did I say "my side" is right or even whether I have a side. I don't even know what you're talking about. I wasn't even talking to you. :?
You used my quote, so when you you use my quote I naturally will assume your speaking to me, getting pretty defensive

I was just pointing out the irony in his response to your post.
No irony there, just amazed at how many people think that one side or the other of the political spectrum really gives a fuck about you, especially in America.
