Not sure how a 'company' like FoxNews could be any more pathetic then having their lead story be this.

They tried to make their own story. It fell flat and now all they can do is complain about how others view their feeble attempt.

Classic.

They don't even try to talk about how 'great' it was, because it wasn't.

All they can do is complain about all those who are laughing at them today.

Now THAT'S a news agency huh?

Ah...no.

As aflacshaheen pointed out, the .03%ers are truly revolting.

Teabagging, for those who don't live in a frat house, refers to a sexual act involving part of the male genitalia and a second person's face or mouth.

Don't forget certain politicians, preachers, and most likely "broadcast journalists"

Nobody asked you what teabagging meant, Ferry. Guess you just couldn't resist an opportunity to talk about "male genitalia."

They don't like being called Teabaggers????

OK, I'll just refer to them as whiners then.

NO, don't like that one either???

How about sore losers???

Oh, the Janis video was much more appropriate RCADE.

This is exactly the kind of thorough planning we have come to expect from the people who said the Iraq war would take 3 months and cost pocket change.

The same folks that brought us Joe the Anal Plumber and Michael 'we got a nigger too' Steele.

Same bunch that arranged Moosefart Barbie's press conference in front of a turkey slaughtering device.

Heckofajob, Rtards!!!!

David Gergen sed "teabaggin"" on the air!

ROFL!

That some funny, funny stuff.

Was not expecting that.

Not so suprising when Anderson Cooper sed it.

Be Well.

He quoted that from the article you didn't read but decided to comment on Joe.

What a joke you are.

Save bytes, drop the "sore"...

FAUXNews organized an America-wide event and couldn't draw more people than a college football game. I just hope aflacshahhen managed to get lucky yesterday.Saw a lot of pictures of women who looked like they haven't had sex since Reagan did.

That's it!

I'm gonna sue you.......once i find a competent lawyer.

Joe.

You forgot to add Pyrush Jindal stepping out of the dark like a B-grade movie vampire and blathering on about non-existent high speed trains to Disneyland and volcano monitoring while channelling Mr. Rogers.

That's leadership!

I should have known Ferry couldn't write that coherent a sentence, even if it was about his favorite topic (cock).

Actually it's balls Joe.

It is you who keeps harping on the cock.

MSNBC can't resist either.

You really are desperate today. Quick, hit refresh and tell me about a missed comma!

Personally... I don't care... I just makes those using the term more idiotic than those all in an uproar.... I know it made Anderson Cooper look like a moron...

I take it Joe doesn't like "toilet humor"? (Insert Larry Craig Joke here!)

Who cares? I agree with BluJay, it points to the bias of the media more than it says anything about me.

Axe, sexual and racial content all in one post, must do your parents proud I bet....

I wonder how many of the good folks in this video are DR righties?

He's just another ignorant righty that doesn't know what tea bagging means.

That's what happens when you lead a life sheltered by FoxNews. You become an angy-ignorant blowhard.

We're Fox "news". We "fabricate", you believe.

You will believe.

I didn't know what the term meant until I read the article. Amazing how many lefties are familiar with the term, though.

Just another thing. Now every time I hear a "journalist" use the term, I'll know he's making an oral sex reference. And it makes it that much easier to hate him back.

Such classy friends, this man Obama has. I'll stay firmly on the other side, quietly, and just despise him and Obamania. Fair enough.

you got some sort of proof about Fox being behind everything

What? Did you not see their ads or the headliners of the 'event'?

Are you fucking serious?

"""Yeah.... that ratings jump sounds like "falling flat" to me."""

Everyone loves a good joke.

What? Did you not see their ads or the headliners of the 'event'?

Again, you apparently have difficulty parsing the difference between "coverage" and "sponsorship".

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

FoxNews didn't sponsor any tea parties.

No matter how much you hold your breath, close your little eyes, and wish upon a star....

Sorry, MiniGash. :(

The tea parties might have been stupid, but I do think it is pretty sad when the media heads, knowing exactly what teabagging means, uses it in their broadcasts in this way.

"""Yeah.... that ratings jump sounds like "falling flat" to me."""

Everyone loves a good joke.

I will admit that I had to unlock FoxNews last night just to see how pathetic this thing was. Guilty as charged. I tuned in to laugh at them.

And reality disagrees with you Jak. Sorry.

It's a real team effort over at Fox News.

You'd expect conservative commentators like Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity to be hyping today's wave of anti-tax "tea parties." But Fox personalities labeled "news" anchors are right there with their blessings too -- one telling us the protests will focus on "how much of our hard-earned money is going to the federal government," another assuring us the tea parties themselves are sparking economic activity.

The Fox promotions people have been pumping up the volume, with ads celebrating hundreds of rallies and citizens who are "demanding real economic solutions." That's in contrast, you see, to the fake solutions President Obama wants to foist on the American people.

There's something dispiriting, though not surprising, in watching the conservative movement's favorite news outlet shamelessly promote a political happening, while simultaneously claiming its coverage will be "fair and balanced."

Here is one of the screen shots Fox News used to promote their, and I quote "FNC Tax Day Tea Parties"

"Again, you apparently have difficulty parsing the difference between "coverage" and "sponsorship"

Posted by Jak_Se_Mao at 2009-04-16 05:44 PM"

So you're saying they were "covering" something that hadn't even happened yet? A swing, and a miss for Jak_Me_Nao.

"coverage" and "sponsorship"-Jak

FOX did 'promote' it though...didn't they?

Big difference between covering and promoting.

but I do think it is pretty sad when the media heads, knowing exactly what teabagging means, uses it in their broadcasts in this way.

I think its great.

It just goes to show the extent to which they've abandoned any pretense of objectivity.

If I were a professional journalist, I'd want to have at least a little bit of pride in the legitimacy of my craft.

Apparently, these people have none.

And it simply validates any scorn or criticism heaped upon them regarding their bias and unprofessionalism.

We told you 20 years ago these people were partisan, left-wing shitbags.

And we were right.

FF for #35.

Don't talk about Fox News that way.

They were promoting the coverage of the tea parties.

Again, you apparently have difficulty parsing the difference between "coverage" and "sponsorship".

Just deal with it.

So you're saying they were "covering" something that hadn't even happened yet?

Ah.

Let's be obtuse when we're full of shit.

And know it.

so Jak, how does that FNC Tax Day Tea Party graphic fit into your little equation that they had nothing to do with it?

His ass kicked with pictures and all!

you got some sort of proof about Fox being behind everything or are you just slinging shit and hoping it will stick because it bothers you to think that this might gain steam and hurt Obama?

Let's take "B" for $1200, Chuck....

There is a difference between coverage and promotion Jak.

Deal with it!

so Jak, how does that FNC Tax Day Tea Party graphic fit into your little equation that they had nothing to do with it?

Its a graphic promoting the networks coverage of the tea parties in major metropolitan areas.

Guess you missed the FNC graphic huh Jak.

Again, you don't know shit.

It is unfair to laugh at these people because they don't know what "tea bagging" means.
They know what it means. Of course they know what "tea bagging" means.

Why do you think they showed up at the rallies?

Got anything else?

Guess you missed the FNC graphic huh Jak.

No, MiniGash.

Its right here on the thread.

I think you've had enough, Jak. Crawl away, kid.

The same CNN ballwasher pretended Cindy Sheefilth was just a 'lone mother looking for answers'.

It's amazing how brain dead and brainwashed you left wing idiots are, incredible how you have handed over your thoughts to left wing tv and lack any semblance of self direction.

The demonstrations yesterday were peaceful, thoughtful, and had a point, but if you watch and believe CNN or MSNBC, they were a bunch of gay teabagger sucking each others nards.

Their slanted hateful gay tainted viewpoint was so crass it would have been dumped out of this blog.

Where was the same slanted coverage when 20 unwashed idiots would stand out side the White House calling President Bush a war criminal for disrupting Saddam's beauty sleep?

Some day you will wake up and realize that your brain has been rotted by the filth crap left wing that the MSM spews.

calling a tea bagger a tea bagger is not kosher? hmmm

Except the assertion you made is horseshit.

Feel free to produce some kind of argument that the tea parties were "sponsored" by FNC---or that FNC was somehow "behind" all of it.

Otherwise, consider your ass handed to you until you can conjure the evidence.

Obama deserves a good bag to the face.

You are blind Jak.

No wonder you suck from the cock of the Fox.

Fine. Move along. The fact that FoxNews headlined the 4 biggest tea parties, promoted the parties on their station and website for weeks probably means nothing.

(I understand that you are ok with being fooled, but FoxNews doesn't fool everyone and the rest of us laugh at those that it does.)

Turn off FoxNews and you'll have a better chance of understanding why people point and laugh at you.

obama won the election, go have a good cry in a hole somewhere

Just as Jackoff has his head handed to him, here comes Zitboy to the slaughter!!!

Enjoy the bashing, I'm outta here.

MSNBC was reporting that some of the people behind the event were Newt GingRICH and Dick Army. They went on to say that Dick's involvement was a good thing because if you're planning on having thousands of tea baggings across the country at the same time that you really do need a "DICK ARMY"

They may not of sponsored it....but they sure the hell promoted it.

Fox is bias...what else is new??? Big deal...watch it if it floats your boat. If not... liberals, flip the remote.

Oh, and that liberal-media you rethugs are so paranoid about...the majority are owned by registered republicans. They're just not party-first folk like you. They are first and foremost, businessmen, and they ALL donated money to that devil Obama.

This is another attempt by the left MSM and folks like Many to use childish, vulgar and homosexual jokes to try and make some kind of point.

And the point is that they are dumb, childish and vulgar. They also describe homosexual acts that they obviously know something about.

Obama deserves a good bag to the face.

"You get the general tenor of this... "

LOL!!

Was the CNN Reporter a plant? No one is that stupid.

750,000?

I'm not saying you shouldn't count how many people showed up at these protests as some sort of indication of outrage over taxes, but in fairness I think you should subtract the guys who showed up carrying spray cans of whipped cream...

You ever notice Murph, that the same left wing nobs that get all a twitter over gay rights, use gay prerogatives to disparage anyone they disagree with?

It's the same on this blog as it is on left wing tv.

If Sean Hannity had called any left leaning political protesters 'teabaggers' in the derogatory sexual terms that, David 'rot brain' Schuster or Anderson 'I love black cock' Cooper did, the left would be holding a lynching party 24/7.

It would be full faux outrage from the New York Times to MSNBC.

The amazing part is that left wing smear merchants count on the brain washed stupidity and silent duplicity of the cud chewing masses, and incredibly they get it.

"They also describe homosexual acts that they obviously know something about.

Hetero Teabaggers Unite!

Rex: read #71. The same post applies when I dangle my ball bag in your wife's mouth. Nothing homosexual about it.

no R, what anyone with a brain is laughing about is the simple fact that the nazi who just left office after eight years almost tripled the national debt. His fellow conservatives didnt say squat. now that they lost an election big time
(read were thrown out)they are behaving like the little stupid children that they are. The tea bagging name is well earned. go somewhere and suck on yours

Looks like a shift change to me.

It's Ale time.

I agree with Rex...minus the hyperbole. :)

The left would have certainly sent in the Sensitivity Police had a right-winger used this term.

Joe, quit while you can.

Face it, you spouted off and made yourself look a bit foolish. It's OK though. It happens to everyone here at one point or another.

Soul, hyperbole?

Hell brother, I have the dial on 3.

You should see my 8, Rogers would have to shut this place down again.

Yeah Rex...I know you had it dialed down...that why I smiled. Although I do seem to be a bit hyperbolic-sensitive these days.

I think teabagger is the perfect term since most repubs are closeted gays anyways

"coverage" and "sponsorship".

How do you cover something when you're on the podium speaking? And I still want to know if Glenda Beck cried....

And here is Monte trying to say that these news people were making hetero references in their use of tea baggers?

And that somehow makes it better? lol

That is truly dimented.

Isn't tea bagging a homosexual act?

I've been around a long time and never--never heard it referenced with men and women sexual acts.

As for the numbers the count is over 262,000.

And this is not a homosexual term?

I only have my personal experience to speak from, but I've never said to my wife....

"Please, teabag me baby...."

I have asked her to...

"Please, lick my ba--- baby....."

And how about the retarded tone deaf response of the Hussein administration?

What a bunch of knuckleheads these left wing clowns are.

If it wasn't so sick and pathetic it would be humours.

Murph I just figured republican men across the country were literally having a teabag party with each other.

Rasta--spinning away to stay in cahoots with Many--not very convincingly either.

So it is a gay term?

R it is just so frustrating that it makes you want to go out and torture people doesnt it?

"The same post applies when I dangle my ball bag in your wife's mouth. Nothing homosexual about it."

Well, not when YOU do it. When they do it, they're imagining it's Brad Pitt instead of the wife...

No murph it is not unless two men are involved which is usually the case when republicans are involved

Not according to Urban Dictionary--

""Please, lick my ba--- baby....."

You say "please"? What a pussboy. You should just do what the football team did with Nanc in High School - shove her head down there, and tell her to suck.

As for the numbers the count is over 262,000.

Counting their shadows. Independent numbers are less than half that, Muffy.

Ff monte

Shitty ass right wingers couldn't even muster 1 million participants in all 50 states..that's not a movement. It's another right wing fuck up that is nothing short of laughable...

LM

Jenny Beth Martin, a Republican activist who helped organize one protest in Atlanta, said she's not too worried about the protests being dismissed by some media outlets. She estimated 750,000 people attended more than 800 protests in all 50 states, and that at the very least the local media and community newspapers documented it.

The Party of No is still the Party of Delusion. Talk about big tents.

I'm not sure if anyone has posted this video or not. If so, pardon the duplication. If not, I think this pretty much sums up what the Right on this website says about the media. Specifically, outlets such as CNN, CBS, MSNBC, NBC, etc.

In all honesty, this really isn't indicative of anything but two "journalists" bias. However, the woman who appears on camera seems to be targeting one small segment of the group in order to convey the idea that the only people there were anti-government, hate mongers.

Enjoy.

Thanks Axiom, The last half should be all over the news. I saw things like this after we had storms come through. The media finds the one house about to fall in and waits until it does. Or they find someone who looks desperate and pathetic to interview. Truth be told they were desperate and pathetic most of their lives. That chick was just there to discredit those people.

Just watched the video at the top. Bet Cooper knows all about talking with a sack in his mouth.

"You say "please"? What a pussboy. You should just do what the football team did with Nanc in High School - shove her head down there, and tell her to suck."

Well if(God forbid!),my wife was anything like Nanc...that would be an acceptable approach. Fortunately I'm in that small percentage of married men who have a wife who will still pleasure her man orally. The occasional 'please' and 'thank you' is a small price to pay.

Axiom-
Your little clip left this out. It's the "interview" with the guy with a poster of Obama as Hitler ranting about how Obama is a "fascist". Why do you suppose your clip omitted this?

#99 | Posted by STIRSUMUP

take from it what you will. criticism of the tea parties is fair play. years ago, a broad swath of those participating in the protests yesterday would have been those who criticized those who participated in anti-war rallies.

my only wish is that the protests had addressed the root of the problem as opposed to the current, accepted solution to that problem. Taxes aren't the real problem. The people's lack of control of the money supply. It's our money, but we have no real say in how it is spent and how much of it is "printed".

We've allowed the same corporations who got us into this economic mess to dictate the rules. They're in control of the money, and until we all realize that, they'll continue to do so.

LOL. I just watched this thread's clip. Hilarious!

Axiom-
Your little clip left this out. It's the "interview" with the guy with a poster of Obama as Hitler ranting about how Obama is a "fascist". Why do you suppose your clip omitted this?

If you scroll up, you'll notice that I acknowledged that there were some "fringe" members of the demonstration. Airing that in the broadcast is fair play. Yet when the reporter ONLY reports that part, it's not fair to the others there voicing legitimate concerns.

That is the issue with media coverage. They're no longer the watchdog for the people. They are the lapdog of whichever administration has nice numbers in the popularity polls.

Let's layout a hypothetical situation.

If, in several months, the economic situation has not improved and Obama's numbers begin to slip; where will the media's loyalties lie?

Will they still be there to trumpet his policies as visionary, or will they begin to turn on him based on public opinion? Will their reporting be truthful, or will it be half-truths or out-right false?

As a President, so far I like Obama. That doesn't mean that I agree with everything he's done or said. That also doesn't mean that I won't be critical of his future intentions, either. The guy deserves a fair shake, but so do the American people.

If the only thing we can count on is the media to offer up a slanted view based on a small segment, such as the interview with the "obama is a facist" guy, then how well are we informed?

I wrote these demonstrations off because I didn't feel they addressed the real issues, but I have to give some of the attendees some credit. Some of them know that the system is being gamed to give a select few an advantage. To show only one side of the complete story is poor journalism, and it is dishonest.

Betelg: I'd also like to throw out one other question.

I didn't see anything in the clip that was "anti-government". The guy with the obama/facist sign was most definitely not prepared to defend his stance...that usually tells me he got that from someone else. Since I don't listen to talk radio, I couldn't possibly tell you what pundit is throwing that one out there...

To my point.

It was acceptable to call the former president all sorts of names. Keith Olbermann called President Bush a fascist, as well.

Calling them teabaggers is fucking hilarious. What did they expect? In this day and age you have to be careful about how you market an idea or else it'll rapidly become a parody of itself.

Also, a DR lefty admitted to acting like a fucking loon and bleating at the protestors. A bunch of retarded teabaggers with a fucking nutcase bleating at them in counter protest; hilarious.

#103 | Posted by Axiom

It's a start. I don't think it's just about taxes. Inflation due to over printing and lack of confidence is a form of insidious taxation. I think in the next congressional will say a lot about the silent majority. I personally feel people had a Throw the Bums Out attitude the last congressional election. The bums at the time were Republican. I think you'll see the same thing next time. After a decade of that we may see a real change.

A truly fair and balanced assessment Axiom.

Yet when the reporter ONLY reports that part, it's not fair to the others there voicing legitimate concerns.

I should edit my comment, because in all actuality, the last part of that segment that I linked was probably aired on television. Since I don't have a tv, I couldn't tell you for sure, but I have to err on the side of caution.

Regardless. Her hostility toward the people she was interviewing and commenting on was obvious. Perhaps CNN could invest in some impartial journalists who are willing to report both sides of a story without adding in their own personal agenda.

After a decade of that we may see a real change.

Real change has to start with us, the populace.

The current rifts between right and left are the result of talking heads with agendas. Those on the left feel a compulsion to side with those who most reflect their ideology. It is the same with those on the right.

The people who really sway elections are the folks that both parties hate until it's time to run for office. Independents. We hold the real political power, but we haven't learned to use it.

We're just as easily manipulated by wedge issues and emotional ploys that tell us to abandon reason. Maybe, in a decade, there will be real change. I only hope we make it that long.

Axiom-
re: If the only thing we can count on is the media to offer up a slanted view based on a small segment, such as the interview with the "obama is a facist" guy, then how well are we informed?

How well informed are you when your source edits the part embarrassing to your little tea-bagger movement?

If they don't like the word "teabagging" can we just call them cocksuckers?

I agree that the reporter did a terrible job. It's also true that she was surrounded by an angry mob with posters of Obama as Hitler. She also mentioned depictions of Obama as the "Anti-Christ".

I personally wish these teabaggers could have more airtime. How many Glenn Becks would it take before the novelty of people protesting a tax cut wore thin?

They don't like the word "teabagging" but in the real world they don't understand what they are protesting about in the first place.

They are protesting obamas possible raise in taxes but yet they don't understand obama's policies won't come into being until 2010, and by all accounts they will get a tax cut.

How stupid politically hacking can they get. Fox really pulled on over on em for sure.

Nullifidian-
I think "teabagger" works well.

If someone can still be manipulated by wedge issues, they haven't fully evolved into free-thinking independents yet. You see them on here all the time proclaiming their non-partisanship through red and blue stained lips.

How well informed are you when your source edits the part embarrassing to your little tea-bagger movement?

I don't have a source. I found the video on youtube. I copied and pasted the link in the location box. There was no ruse. Even without television or radio, I manage to stay informed enough. Can you tell that the reporter is openly hostile towards the people she is surrounded by?

I agree that the reporter did a terrible job. It's also true that she was surrounded by an angry mob with posters of Obama as Hitler. She also mentioned depictions of Obama as the "Anti-Christ".

People on this site as well as members of the media used the same or worse to describe George W Bush, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton and other Presidents. Was that ok? Does it suddenly offend you now?

They are protesting obamas possible raise in taxes but yet they don't understand obama's policies won't come into being until 2010, and by all accounts they will get a tax cut.

Obama gets the blame because he's the one in charge now. Fair? Probably not. I think he knew what was in store for him the moment he took the Oath.

He knew that he wouldn't even receive one day of respite from those on the right who wish to "see him fail". I think he's a big boy. He can take it.

Either way, you're right. The only thing under his belt at the moment is a ginormous cash infusion that has yet to filter down and improve the economy. Too early to tell, honestly. I don't like it, but I'll with-hold final judgment for now.

I spot checked this thread to find a single democrat who would admit that calling the protesters 'teabaggers' was really low-road, partisanship as usual.

Whatever helps you sleep at night "guy who hides behind a new name because that last one is associated with an ignorant fuck".

Peace.

Actually, it belittles the one party throwing a tantrum about "tyranny" a couple of months after they fairly lost an election in a democratic republic.

Axiom-
Your points are your own. It's only your support of a bunch of whining Republican teabaggers that is worthy of ridicule.

Screw that. Calling them tea-baggers is polite.
#127 | Posted by YAV

Not exactly the type of behavior that inspires republicans to vote with anything other than their hatred of democrats next time around. They will still exist come 2010/2012, you know. I'm actually surprised at you.

Hagbard-
All fifty of them?

Maybe what I'm saying is that you guys could do worse than to dial down on the Rahm Emanuel and dial up on the BHO, rhetoric-wise.

Is a little post partisanship too much to ask for?

You exaggerate to prove my point? I should thank you.

I'm actually surprised at you.

It was tongue-in-cheek, but I hardly consider 'tea-bagger" as some kind of horrible insult, especially in light of the signs I've seen at some of the tea parties.

Besides, I spent the day with a bunch of Republicans at a customer's today where I was grilled on where I stand with God. Of course I'm an atheist, so that went over really well. What lead into that discussion you might ask?

The tea party that was in the town I live. Somehow they were doing "God's work."

So, yeah, maybe more tongue and less cheek in my comment than I had realized.

Have you listened to the radio since the baby murdering commmie-fascist Obongo Hussein was elected to install tyranny and take away our freedom? Have you heard about the "re-education camps" spoken of on Fox News, and how Obama is going to take your guns away?

It's curious that there's little mention of the obvious: that tax protests in the USA on April 15 are as perennial as daffodils. Granted, it's not surprising to find a core belief in most groups (or individuals) that they don't want their money to be wasted (no! REALLY???). In that sense, the protests are not to be ignored or minimalized.

HOWEVER, to claim this co-opting of an annual event as something NEW and that (somehow!) is linked to THE Boston Tea Party and thereby enjoys/deserves enhanced significance is beyond ludicrous and is pathetic.

You know he's not even a citizen, and he's mostly Muslim, not black...

Arab/Muslim, whatever. It would be more effective if I could have footage of marching Nazis behind me as I pretend to be Obama and douse the average American with gasoline and light a match, as Glen Beck is fond of doing.

Are you kidding me? Why don't you just grab an uzi and start.... do you realize the foundations you're laying with that approach?

Be better to call them "welfare queens". These are assholes who want trillion dollar wars and trillion dollar tax cuts at the same time. Nothing but a bunch of freeloaders and leeches.

Why don't you just grab an uzi and start....

Because I'd rather take the high road, call them teabaggers, and laugh.

I think you might have me confused with people who are ranting about "tyranny", clutching their guns, and throwing a collective fit because they lost an election, Hagbard.

#146 | Posted by BetelG

I find a way to disagree with them on the regular and never have to go that route... because no matter the disagreement, they're always my brothers and sisters, my fellow Americans, and I never lose sight of that. For fuck's sake, the average democrat here has tons more in common with them than I do, but I manage to be seen by righties as somebody here who is reasonable (except when talking to fwad or theo I guess). You should ask yourself why that's the case.

For the record, I seem to have my issues with Bbob on the left. Danni and I have an on again, off again thing.

Somehow they were doing "God's work."

If by "God" they meant "GOP" they'd have a point.

Of course, fer an alarming number of them the two terms are practically interchangable.

Be Well.

Too bad! I hated being called "anti-American" and "Saddam lover" and "Terrorist supporter" and "US Troop Hater." IMHO, any of those are way worse than "teabagger"

I'm trying really hard to refrain from employing several Dr. Phil cliche's here.... he's a bit of a psycho, imo, but he does have a nugget or two of wisdom hidden in there.

What can I say? My wife makes me watch it.

Watching Dr. Phil is one thing. Imitating him is annoying.

No. We need your help Dr. Hagbard. We haven't learned to play nice, what with the Muslim commie-fascist non-citizen in office who is a tyrant who is shredding the Constitution and must be stopped.

Bet,
There are a few things wrong with your post.

1. Bush wasn't a Muslim or a commie, but I will agree about the fascist and tyrant

2. He did shred the constitution

3. He had to be stopped

4. He was on Jan 20, 2009 at 12:00pm.

"No. We need your help Dr. Hagbard. We haven't learned to play nice, what with the Muslim commie-fascist non-citizen in office who is a tyrant who is shredding the Constitution and must be stopped."

I always thought I was much more respectful of people with different points of view from mine than Dr. Feel ever was.

If they don't like the word "teabagging" can we just call them cocksuckers?

Tap dancers?

Hagbard-
Dr. Phil would draw the line at murdering cops because "BHO" is going to take his guns away. How sympathetic are you?

Northguy-
I think "teabaggers" is good.

How about calling them "Mindless Drones" or "Lemmings?" "Perverters of Historical Events?" "Fox Hounds?" "People Protesting Because Its Tuesday?"

Is that better?

Hey, points of view? Very sympathetic. Behavior? Significantly less so.

Teabaggers. That's my vote. Ridicule is the best weapon.

How about calling them citizens exercising their free right of peaceful assembly?

Kan, you need to read my earlier comments, time to change the channel from MSNBC and/or CNN.

You need to read mine Rex =P

I said I don't watch tv news.

Hi

That's nice and balanced, Hagbard. You are "significantly less" sympathetic to the premeditated murder of the police.

It's a start.

Comparing that filthy, lying, incestuous, cannibal ghoul, to a peaceful assembly of citizens voicing their concerns about taxation and gluttonous spending is as laughable as it is disingenuous.

#174,
I try to cover any eventuality.

It's not the teabaggers fault if the decline of the Republic and "tyranny" just happened to spring up at the moment the first black president was elected.

Coincidink, Dr. Hagbard?

So were the war protesters not " citizens exercising their free right of peaceful assembly?" How about the names I was called for opposing the war then?

Kanrei-
Rex's frontal lobes (both of them, at once) would have to be functional for him to recognize his own hypocrisy. Aim high, but that's just begging for disappointment.

The ground available for the left to blindly support the office of the President and for the right to support the right to protest is diminishing rapidly. Hypocrisy takes a lot of room.

More on point Kan is;

Did CNN and MSNBC call war protesters 'cock gobblers' or 'vagina lickers' or 'anus eaters'?

The MSM is sickening, they are no longer purveyors of real news, they are hard left political activist that that take their talking points from Carville, Begala, Emmanuel, and other left wing morons.

Worse the Hussein regime and it's lackeys lick the pizzle.

Coincidink, Dr. Hagbard?

I saw alot of the signs people were holding when watching Maddow last night. I do not deny that they made me sick to my stomach. But the last I checked, there is not test for the right to vote, and most of those people do. I try to keep that in mind.

I am not Rex Bet.

I prefer "in the land of the blind, the seeing man is king."

I don't answer question, I make declarative statements of fact.

And only you can speak to whatever names you felt you were called.

I think it's pretty grandiose to compare your posts on a blog to 10's of 1000's of organized protesters exercising their freedom of assembly and speech.

It was a joke, Kanrei.

NOw then Rex, if you want to play with those new goal posts, you cheered FoxNews for questioning the patriotism of every war protester. Did they not have the same rights? Was Fox not picking a side and not reporting news?

"The MSM is sickening, they are no longer purveyors of real news, they are hard left political activist that that take their talking points from Carville, Begala, Emmanuel, and other left wing morons."-REX

The same MSM that is mostly owned by card carrying republicans. Who ALL donated money to that devil Obama?

Shit Murdoch wouldn't even have FoxNews if it wasn't for The Simpsons.

Rex-
They are quite free to declare that Obama is Hitler. The more coverage the better.

I think it's pretty grandiose to compare your posts on a blog to 10's of 1000's of organized protesters exercising their freedom of assembly and speech.

Nice attempt at spinning away from the real point, you get 5 out of 10 for that. One protester or 1000's, the value of each is the same: one man, one voice. Would you rather I picked one person and called them a name, then moved on to the next and called them a different one? You still don't see your hypocrisy?

The gist of this thread is the vulgar sexual term used in description of the protectors by 'new organizations'.

I take it you feel Fox news used a similar derogatory term in describing war protesters.

I must have missed that.

#189 | Posted by BetelG

I know it was =D. Even when I fight here, I rarely get upset. This place is fun and therapy.

I take it you feel Fox news used a similar derogatory term in describing war protesters.

NOt vulgar sexual terms, but equally dismissive and jovial.

Oh my gosh. Rex is upset by a "vulgar sexual term". We really should've censored this thread so Rex's fragile sensibilities were not offended.

Soul, do you personally know the ownership and management of each major news organization?

I'm sure Jeffery Immelt would be suprised to hear he is a republican.

I could care less if Lyndon Larouche owned the MSM, if they spread the same left wing dung as they do now, my thesis holds.

Teabagging

Teabagger

Teabagging fan

Teabagger with the vapors, Rex? I'm sorry you are so offended, dear.

I'd rather FoxNews, and the right-wing in general, had used a little more bathroom humor and less of the hateful and divisive vitriol they spewed at ANYONE who even questioned Bush's policies in Iraq.

Since I've never heard you state a critical word about the Rev. Moon's paper, I guess I can understand that you really have no informed opinion one way or another. So why do you keep pretending?

fuck!

(sorry, Rex. I'm sure your ears will quit pounding just as soon as you have some cocoa and a hug)

Now you are twisting the thread to suit the point you want to make Kanrei.

The point is, subhuman left wing trash like Anderson Cooper, Keith Olberfilth, Andrea Mitchell, and especially Racheal Maddow, used a sexual vulgarity to disparage a group of people that they disagree with.

That's fine when it's a blogger chatting on some Internet blog, not when they are using the forum of 'real new' to do it.

They are creating a generation of brainwashed morons, drooling left wing simpletons, who only know what the left tells them to think.

So Rex, explain to me why Murdoch allows all the liberals shows on his OTHER Fox network, to continue bashing him and the right wing....if it isn't because he is businessman, BEFORE he is a republican.

He donated money to Obama. Just like all the MSM owners...right and left.

Rex,
That is the point of the article, not the thread. This thread has been about the word "teabagger" and if anyone on the right has any right to be upset about being called anything and how ironic it is that the right suddenly loves the right to protest and thinks they should not be called names for doing it.

The point is, subhuman left wing trash like Anderson Cooper, Keith Olberfilth, Andrea Mitchell, and especially Racheal Maddow, used a sexual vulgarity to disparage a group of people that they disagree with.

LOL. Anyone here familiar with Rex's post history? It seems that Rex has a recent brain trauma and doesn't recognize the hilarity or his new chastity belt.

The point is, subhuman left wing trash like Anderson Cooper, Keith Olberfilth, Andrea Mitchell, and especially Racheal Maddow, used a sexual vulgarity to disparage a group of people that they disagree with.

YOu are right; it is so much better for the news to call protesters things like "traitors," "Saddam lovers," "ant-Troop," "anti-American," "Taliban supporters."

Soul, you can believe whatever you like.

I'm not even sure where you stand on the right left issue.

Somewhere along the line you must have felt slighted because of your opposition to the war. (which war?)

Well to put it to rest, I don't speak for Foxnews, so any problems you have with Rupert Murdoch will have to be taken up with him personally.

It is above reproach for Hannity, O'Reilly, Gibson, et al to question the patriotism and to accuse protesters of "giving aid and comfort to the enemy." What was I thinking?

If the shoe fits Kanrei.

Anyone else watching the Daily Show? Stewart just ran through line after line of obvious oral sex jokes on MSNBC and joked that MSNBC had become the new Daily Show.

The Daily Show is funny and is first and foremost a comedy program, why is MSNBC doing it though? It just takes away from their credibility IMO, but then again I don't watch any of the 24 hour news channels so I suppose it doesn't matter.

BTW, last time I looked, the wars were still going on and we are escalating the aggressions in Afghanistan.

Where are the 'No War in Iraq' signs at now?

That was too easy to steer you into.

The organizers and Fox News in particular are all guilty of sedition technically.

So now it is OK for the MSM to express opinion and not real news, but rather to be hard right political activist that that take their talking points from Rove, Cheney, and Snow?

Just another politican with all theory and no experience.

Wanna bet he couldn't change the trap on his bathroom sink?

Children rule us!

I get it. Calling someone a "traitor" for expressing their political views is justified, but referring to a teabagging sore loser as a teabagger offends Rex's delicate sensibilities.

This would be too funny if they weren't shooting cops.

I take it Kan, that your thesis is 'Fox news' called war protestors names and that they were correct in doing so.

I still have mine. I criticize Obama here every single day. I am pissed that we are taking troops from Iraq and, instead of bringing them home for some well deserved rest, we are putting them into another war zone. I am beyond pissed that Obama is continuing every bad thing Bush did. Check out my post history sometime Rex, you will be shocked.

My position is that there isn't a left or right for the uber-rich...not matter what 'team' they claim to be on. Fox News and MSM are just there to keep up the two-party illusion. You partisan types are too predictable...look at the stupid shit you'll argue over. Policies you loved when Bush was presisident, now get your panties in a hyperbolic bunch. Same with the left...policies they deemed horrific under Bush, are now visionary under Obama.

Goddamn I hate koolaid!!

I take it Kan, that your thesis is 'Fox news' called war protestors names and that they were correct in doing so.

No, my thesis is that you are in no position to call out one news organization for calling names when you supported another for doing the same.

My thesis is that after the barrage of names the right called anyone who dared question Bush, they have no room to criticize anyone for calling them names.

So is it all about 'you' Kanrei?

I thought this was about the MSM using a sophomoric sexual vulgarity in a dismissive description of citizens.

There are still some around - those who wanted, and still want an immediate withdrawal from Iraq.

The majority of us want a responsible withdrawal, which has been announced and begins shortly. If it doesn't happen pretty much on schedule I imagine you'll start to see more protests

As for Afghanistan, Obama has always talked about the need to refocus our assets there, and the majority of us agreed. Like many, maybe most Democrats, I supported Bush's actions against Afghanistan.

One of the most laughable and disingenuous parts is that most of the stupid teabaggers protesting have recently had their taxes cut.

Rex,
Now I have to explain sentence structure to you? (Sigh)

My thesis is that after the barrage of names the right called anyone who dared question Bush, they have no room to criticize anyone for calling them names.

My subject is established in the first part of the sentence, pre-comma. It is where I say "My thesis is that after the barrage of names the right called anyone who dared question Bush." My thesis is the subject naturally, but notice where I say "the barrage of names the right called anyone who dared question Bush," this establishes the "they" I refer to when I say after the comma (still part of the same sentence) "they have no room to criticize anyone for calling them names."

To rephrase the sentence in a way you will understand it:

After the barrage of names the right called anyone who dared question Bush, there is little room to criticize anyone.

Better?

Hahahahha, Soul this is pillow fighting, sophistic interplay.

In the old days I would have whipped out my chainsaw and things would have got bloody.

Well, maybe not, since I like you, Kan, and Sanatonio.

You and your teabagging friends are objects of national ridicule, REX.

Night Rex. I didn't realize it is so late. I am cranky and coming down.

Kanrei, by your logic, the 'right' was correct in calling war protestors names.

Oops. I'm sorry. I used a "vulgar sexual term" and there's a delicate lady in the room.

Sorry, REX.

Night Kan!.....have a good friday.

Most of my frustration stems from earlier battles Rex...not you.

See you tomorrow.

Actually, no. I am making it clear they were wrong by condemning their attempts at playing martyr now. They are crying victim of the very crime they themselves committed. There is absolutely no way you could honestly have read one word I have written and actually believe I think the right was correct in their actions.

Time to get off the ride Rex. You have been spinning too long and are dizzy =D

It's one thing to get stomped in the polls, but to bleat so incessantly is really too much. It invites ridicule, REX.

Night =D

'Night all.

So then the MSM is wrong to disparage the Tea party particapants?

Hahahaha, you can't escape your own argument my man.....

I never once said the MSM was right to do so, just that the right has no room to complain about it.

Your pious schtick is getting a little old.

Plenty of people bitched about Bush's spending habits, particularly his detractors, but also some of his supporters---including myself.

What Obama is doing goes far beyond any fiscal irresponsibility exhibited by his predecessor.

You seem to be far more interested in making Kanrei and His Edgy Consistency of Dissent From the Bourgeois Norms Narrative the subject of your posts than you do actually pondering the consequences of the public policy promulgated by the little douchebag who currently heads the Executive Branch of the Federal Government.

"The right" believes in limited government.

Obama is expanding the power of the government to levels unprecedented in American history.

Ergo, "the Right" does indeed have every right to complain.

And while I certainly understand the appeal of jumping up and down and flailing your little wrists at any perceived inconsistency between expressed attitudes of "the Right" now as opposed to 5 years ago, you need to understand that political reality is a dynamic thing---even without the sweeping (and incorrect) assumptions required to make your cool little hypothesis work.

In short, focus on the problem and quit making your ideological purity (and others' lack thereof) the subject of your posts.

You'll be taken more seriously if you do.

Whatever you say...

"Shehag"

PS- Post # 35 FTW.

One of the cooler aspects of tea party thing isn't so much the tea party's themselves as it is the sputtering reaction of leftist, "netroots" shit to them.

Watching these pathetic fucking maggots struggle for an explanantion---and then watching the default Marxist conclusion to everything (it's a reich-wing, FoxNews plot!) prevail---at least until Andrew Sullivan et al provides them with a more "nuanced" set of talking points to help put their world back in order....

The tea parties were neat because of the demographics of the participants. Real Americans---not twenty-something, trust-funded leftist shit whose only inconvenience was skipping their "Womyns Studies" class, setting TiVo to record Jon Stewart, and grabbing their pre-printed Bush=Hitler signs from the closet.

Real American actually felt compelled to make signs, organize, take time from their businesses, families, etc. and send a warning to Sir Hopenchangeitt. From the 15,000 who packed the spectacle in Alamo Plaza to the 500-1,000 in the dozens and dozens of little towns that were lucky to get even a fly-over of a news helicopter.....

It was very real, very ubiquitous throughout the country, and very significant.

Leftist shit understands that all to well, which makes the intellectually specious gymnastics they've exhibited in the course of coming to terms with it so very, very amusing to watch.

Let's see what happens.

Otherwise, you should probably shut the fuck up because I have a whole quiver-full of mean, personal, and pointless insults to throw your way.

Along with a superior command of the English language.

Deal?

Jesus.

How many handles does your bitch ass have?

Jerk me off has been trying to out-batshit Afkabibbleifjibill2. A valiant effort so far but he is hours away from doing a true Afkabibblejfiee2 effort. Then he will have to come back every day for the next 3 months with the same level of inanity to have a shot at the title.

You piggly-wiggly little dick must be raw from rubbing out all those 'loads'.

Give it a rest Jakoff...

You can always gag yourself and give me a fresh slate.....

Just a suggestion...

You tell 'em Axe!

You goofy-ass, semi-literate douche....

I'm gonna slip off to the white peoples' thread, okay?

You don't have an anti-Bush post to search for, you partisan dick smoke...you've NEVER written one.

And as for your childish insults...who gives a fuck. Sticks and stones bitch....let's play!

If you were really as intelligent as you fancy yourself...you wouldn't have to say it. And it would probably be evidenced in your posts at some point. Maybe you wrote something intelligent, but it got stained when you were rubbing out another 'load'.

"You can always gag yourself and give me a fresh slate....."

You've got plenty of fellow tea-baggers to help you there, sister.

Tripling the national debt(yeah, let's see some sources for that BTW) has nothing to do with Michigan's problems.

You don't have an anti-Bush post to search for

Not an "anti-Bush post".

A post critical of the amount of money he spent.

If you were really as intelligent as you fancy yourself...

I love it when little finger-sniffers like yourself say that.

Its like a Freudian slip.

A window into your insecurity.

And an ego boost. :)

Jak is a troll that is easily defeated. He little more than a washed up ranch hand that couldn't make it on the streets of juarez.

You proclaiming your a genius, and me pointing out that most geniuses aren't self-proclaimed...is a Freudian slip?

You just flunked Psychology 101. You're proclamation of your own genius, is the pinnacle of insecurity.

The pinnacle of insecurity is using 2 different handles in an anonymous chatroom to make spurious and off-topic attacks against your intellectual superiors.

To the extent I feel like fucking with you, anyways...

Jak is only capable of regurgitating El Rushbo's talking points night after night. He should be ignored.

He should be ignored.

And what an example you set.

I think he thinks I'm you rasta...

It must be true...he's a genius.

Good night Jakamo...it's been fun. I love you self-proclaimed geniuses...LOL!

Jak has accused me of having multiple handles. The alcohol has done long term damage to his ability to grasp reality.

Watching these pathetic fucking maggots struggle for an explanantion---and then watching the default Marxist conclusion to everything (it's a reich-wing, FoxNews plot!) prevail.

Noting FOX's obvious complicity in trying to turn the teabaggers into more than they really are is not Marxism, Mao-Mao.

It's simply observing and reporting a verifiable fact.

Yer slowly turning into Tadowe, dude.

Seek help.

Also, be careful when you pat yerself on the back fer yer "intellectual superiority" as often as ya do cos you might cough up a lung doing that.

Also worth noting, yer sophomoric frat boy insults are not quite the sharp, shiny barbs you seem to think they are.

They are simply more of the same old, same old, tired, trite, mean-spirited repetitive shite you always spew.

You need to get out more.

It's not the teabaggers fault if the decline of the Republic and "tyranny" just happened to spring up at the moment the first black president was elected.

You can ALWAYS count on Boyd to play the race card.

These protesters don't like being called names?

Tough shit.

The only story here is once-again a blatant bias of the MSM. It's pretty pathetic that the lefty media displays so much open hostility toward these protestors.

Ummmmm isn't it Intellectually Dishonest to call them TeaBaggers for the first Boston Tea Party they dumped the Tea into the Water in a show of rebelion. How can that be construde as tea bagging. They should be called Tea Dumpers and NOT Tea Baggers. To be a Teabagger means (NonSexual wise) would mean taking large quanities of tea and placing it into smaller tea bags. Just a thought.

"First Boston Tea Party they dumped tea into the water in a show of REBELION"?

Throw away your Berkely history book, or have you been talking to SANOBAMA, DOCDICKHEAD and DANNI?

The Boston Tea party was a demenstation about TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION.

So much for that liberal education.

OK, Ooze, I'm not going to correct your misspellings because it is proven futile.

Other than that, your comment is typical Oozie-dumb.

lefties protested for human rights and earth rights

righties protest when they lose an election

This is for you SANOBAMA.

"These small-time opportunities to SHOW OFF by correcting someone else's teeny-tiny mistakes are the lifeblood of Olbermann's MSNBC show".

Doesn't this apply to your small mind. I'll bet you got staight "A"s in third grade in your spelling bees.

By the way, Olbermann is an ASSHOLE.

I don't really care about your spelling, Oozie. I just enjoy annoying you and making you type ASSHOLE a lot. You have been a little stingy with the FLOP EARS lately, though.

You haven't a clue! The TEABAGGER comment is YOURS!

Democrats and their media stooges are those using the term to defame and revile those who don't like spending the future's 3 TRILLIONS, while you obvious liars whined for 8 years about less than one TRILLION.

You and the media are the hatemongers of politics, and which even the sexually repressed "Silent Majority" can now see, even though for the last 8 years, plus you liars have been saying that it was the rightwing who were the hatemongers.

I think you stupid Democrats have cut your own throats, what with antipatriotic efforts to revile our commander in chief during wartime, to try and lose the war to gain votes, to support terrorist organizations with billions, while you creeps criticise Israel for fighting back when attacked...

You are a party of craven cowards, anti-patriots and known traitors ...

Let's just hope Tad is a little more mentally acute than he has been recently. Otherwise we have another day of ranting, deliberately misconstruing other poster's words, missing the point of various threads, and prevaricating to try and cover his ass, to look forward to.

Wait... I just described any day Tadly posts.

Carry on.

Ah, an answer explaining that hatemongering from the Left is acceptable bigotry, while the Right's comments and discussion is about spending which has increase threefold in the last 8 months, under Demcrat leadership; whitehouse and congress.

It is okay for Democrats and their media stooges to use sexual innuendo to describe political protest ...

... which "political protest" from your ilk was defined as "Patriotism!"

Supporting our enemy by reviling our commander in chief is "Patriotic" but any comments from the Rightwing about unfair taxes?

The Democrats and news call them "COCKSUCKERS!"

Come on, Sanan, you leftist hatemonger ... show the good people how you treat facts and political commentary ...!?!

Come on Sanan, call me some names and tell everyone what an evil icon of the rightwing I am, you bigotted verminous creep that you are!

It's a refreshing break ya soda jerk.

Liberal protesting = patriotic
Conservative protesting = teabagging

More of the same. Considering most of the people at these protests had no idea what "teabagging" was, the left can take pride in contributing yet another rude, insulting, word into the American lexicon. That's their idea of "education" and I'm sure you all must be so proud.

Good article on the event

Just a point of order here Tad...

Teabagging is not a euphemism for "cock sucking"

Now, carry on, spew forth at will.

They don't like being called Teabaggers????

How about you call it "keeping an open dialogue" or "doing their patriotic duty" or "speaking out from being fed up with wasteful government" like you would be if they were "teabagging" for Obama like you continuously do?

To repeat what I said to Nanc earlier:

Perhaps, had there been a peep from any of you prior to Jan. 20, 2009, we might not be so critical.

Yet when WE talked about the dangers of the expansion of governmental powers and spending over the past several years, you called us traitors, subversives, mentally deficient, and then invited us to get out of the country.

Sanan claims, "Just a point of order here Tad... Teabagging is not a euphemism for 'cock sucking'"

Is that right? I'm just too old, I guess.

Back then, it referred to the practice of placing wet/damp teabags on the eyes to reduce dark circles and swelling.

Then, it evolved into the technique of one person hanging their head off the end of the bed/table/whatever and allowing a forward (never str8) shot down the throat, while the "teabags" covered the eyes of the "volunteer."

Now, it means sucking bags, huh? That's so much more gentle and kind of your ilk ...

To call the right of protest "Scrotum Sucking."

The news media and your nazi-like ilk should be so proud, what?

"Says the person who believes that if a woman messes around with a guy a little bit, then passes out drunk, she as good as agreed to whatever the guy does to her while she's out"

I spoke of responsibility, & keeping yourself out dangerous situations, & dealing in reality, not saying date rape was OK & you know it. But feel free to deflect from the issue at hand and look like an ass, again.

Sanan says, "Perhaps, had there been a peep from any of you prior to Jan. 20, 2009, we might not be so critical."

Your points are your own. It's only your support of a bunch of whining Republican teabaggers that is worthy of ridicule.

Axiom #103
take from it what you will. criticism of the tea parties is fair play. years ago, a broad swath of those participating in the protests yesterday would have been those who criticized those who participated in anti-war rallies.

That's some overwhelming support on my part there, Bill O'.

There at least two people who have been objective in this thread. You aren't one of them, but I doubt you're interested in being objective. Like most here, you're interested in further widening of the rift between left and right. Too bad the American people as a whole have to be the losers in that arrangement.

#311 | Posted by SanAntonioRogue

Nice try, I gave up on both parties showing any sense a long time ago. And please keep telling us how the left has always advocated smaller government when if you had your way they'd wipe everyone's ass as long as the evil rich were forced to buy the paper.

You're not traitors, just misguided & holier-than-thou in your "we know best for you" ideas. Don't feel alone as the right has plenty of those too. I think you're dead on with the mental deficiency though.

Sanan whines, "Yet when WE talked about the dangers of the expansion of governmental powers and spending over the past several years, you called us traitors, subversives, mentally deficient, and then invited us to get out of the country."

You are that, and now you are marching like good nazis, to spend trillions more than your hypocrisy protested against and now are seen as LIES to gain votes, not concern over money; which you faithless liars are spending 4 times more than you protested against. It is now obvious that you were acting SUBVERIVELY to defame a commander in chief for VOTES ... not legitimate protest. You nominated a known, if not indicted, TRAITOR to be president of the USA, and that, with the rest, more than demonstrates your mental deficiencies.

Especially now, as you continue to attack the rightwing because of the obvious lies being demonstrated now. 1 Trillion was patriotic to protest ... but 3 Trillion spending is justification to call protest "SCROTUM SUCKING!"

Like the good fascist propagandists you've become in supporting your perfect leader.

Hail Welfare! Victory Obama!

How about you call it "keeping an open dialogue" or "doing their patriotic duty" or "speaking out from being fed up with wasteful government" like you would be if they were "teabagging" for Obama like you continuously do?

Hypocrites the lot of you!

I can't speak for you, but I can tell you that many liberals here remember being called anti-american, traitors and all kinds of other names because they did not think the war in Iraq was justified. They were called all kinds of names because of their criticism of all of the policies of the Bush Administration.

Now, for some liberals, George Bush could do nothing right. For the majority of them, George Bush had an opportunity to capitalize on his popularity and the support he received after Sept 11. Instead, he squandered it. The right considered their criticism to be turning their backs on the President and wishing for "American Defeat".

Now the shoe is on the other foot and they remember the shit they had to put up with. I'd like to think that one day, we'll get it out of our systems, but we won't. It will get continually worse until we're just beating the shit out of each other instead of talking.

All I can say to your link, is "Wow", Rex.

What I love is that neither of those 2 clowns recognizes the irony in that they are emulating all of the very behaviors they are emasculating.

Leftists are a viscious and nasty bunch.

Axiom,

It's one thing for bloggers to hurl insults, it's quite another for professional "journalists" to display such open hostility toward people with whom they disagree.

If you haven't already done so, Click Rex's link above.

Some lies, "You're (Democrats/leftists) not traitors ..."

What is nominating a traitor to be their nominee for president? Isn't that at least supporting treason?

How about supporting terrorism, by giving Hamas (identified terrorist organization) billions for attacking Israel?

How about trying to lose a war for votes?

How about reviling our military as murderers and torturers?

How about allowing the CIA to spy in the USA?

How about using the CIA to lie about the war, while we were fighting it?

Are you an apologist for treasonous acting out?

Protesters of any stripe willfully open themselves up to ridicule; that's how it works: your ideas must be able to stand up to and rise above the ridicule, and be proven worthy of attention. Did the tea baggers achieve that? I don't know. I do know they should have used a little better judgment picking their symbol and encouraging folks to hang teabags from their rear-view mirror as a sign of protest. Were they so insular and unaware they didn't know people would call them tea baggers?

Whiners.

While were at it, if you're protesting something, chances are someone somewhere is going to give you shit about it. I suppose in that there is a license to compare screaming at mourners during funerals to tea parties. No matter how vile or run or the mill the protest, it's gonna yank someone's chain.

You put yourself out there.....

Some apologists says, "... if you're protesting something, chances are someone somewhere is going to give you shit about it."

Duh!

However, you equate and apologise for Democrat efforts to gain votes by dehumanization, while Republicans accurately described the actions of Leftists in protest.

Kerry is a known traitor to the United States during a time of war. Calling the mob who tried to make him into president of the USA as traitor supporters is accurate - not an hysterical, and obscene curse like "teabagger."

It was "antipatriotic" to try and gain votes by losing a war started by a Republican, while they hypocritically supported a war by a Democrat for the SAME REASONS or EXCUSES to conduct that war!

Calling them "nazis" is just repeating what Bush was called by the puling leftists, in their efforts to lose a war to Islamic terrorism, so that they can profit from that loss in votes ...

Instead of accurately describing the effort to protest spending Trillions of future, and increased, taxes the whining and cowardly leftists use obscenities and invective to INACCURATELY describe that protest ...

... and you equate the two "protests" as the same ...

Are you a stalking horse democrat, or what?

"Now, for some liberals, George Bush could do nothing right. For the majority of them, George Bush had an opportunity to capitalize on his popularity and the support he received after Sept 11."

I agree with most of that but I think "majority" is a bit of a stretch. The majority of libs hated Bush prior to day 1 & celebrated any problem, even to the detriment of their own country, just to stick it to him. The one's who made the even the slightest effort to not crucify the president were criticized & ostracized by the powers that be in the D-party.

"Instead, he squandered it. The right considered their criticism to be turning their backs on the President and wishing for "American Defeat".

Just like Rush & his whole defeat thing, wishing policies you don't believe in to not be successful isn't the same thing as wishing defeat on America.

As long as we keep doing this to each other & ourselves we're never going to get anywhere. Both parties suck outloud & it's our fault for keeping them in power.

It's the fucking media that's at each other's throats & manipulating everyone's feelings & views for ratings. Politician's should have to stump like the good old days & leave the big media out of it. I'm dreaming, I know.

TeaBagger!

"Revisionism is unbecoming."

#316 | Posted by SanAntonioRogue

Given that you are the DR authority on revisionism, you would know.

"The majority of libs hated Bush prior to day"

True, initially we certainly did not like Bush, and the circumstances around the election didn't help. But Axiom is correct. After 9/11 Bush had a 90% approval rating... which obviously includes the majority of Democrats. We supported him and his efforts, and most of us backed US action in Afghanistan.

Once he made the decision to (1) invade Iraq and (2) expand the authority of the executive beyond what we considered constitutional, support from both Democrats and Independents began to drain away.

He most certainly DID squander an opportunity to lead from the center and heal a lot of divisions. But his "my way or the highway", "you're either for or, or against us" attitude wasn't directed only at other countries who might disagree with some of his policies, but to Americans as well.

More misdirection, "As long as we keep doing this to each other & ourselves we're never going to get anywhere. Both parties suck outloud & it's our fault for keeping them in power."

You need to spout your patronizing advice at the dailykos and then over at freerepublic to get an idea of what "side" they consider you to be on.

Over here, you can see that the only "agreement" you get is when you repeat the excuse Democrats use for their invective and obscenities: The Republicans do it too!

That will be the same at Kos, but you will find lots of "agreement" for your other claims at the Free.

That's the difference, apologist, and not as your mealymouthed claim of "doing the same."

The left have become ends-justify-the-means liars and hatemongers for votes. The hate-filled mob acting in unison to defame and revile any protest from the rightwing; and the left in concert and "agreement" with the mainstream media.

Better start practicing your Sieg Heils and Heil Obamas ... as you can see that it was Republicans, not Democrats who "started it."

What do you really think when you are off your high horse "agreement" with the Left, and your effort to patronize righteous DISAGREEMENT?

Yet you're the one trying to backpedal away from what you originally said.

Sanan lies, "We supported him and his efforts, and most of us backed US action in Afghanistan."

BS! I'm here in the People's Republic of Oregon and they were complaining about going to Afghanistan, from the start!

How many months was it before the complaints about the FAILURE IN FINDING bin LADEN START? One, two, three was it?

Now, where is bin Laden? Why hasn't Obama captured him? IT MUST BE A HUGE FAILURE OF THE BIG GOVERNMENT, CIA SUPPORTING OBAMA ADMINISTRATON.

Don't you think Sanan? Isn't Obama a failure for not going after bin Laden? How long must we wait for that teabagging imperialist, nazi, murderer, and profligate spender of our future's wealth?

What scum he is for not capturing or killing bin Laden! And, will continue to be such a target for the same comments leveled by the lying leftists for 8 years ...

"Sanan lies, "We supported him and his efforts, and most of us backed US action in Afghanistan."

BS! I'm here in the People's Republic of Oregon and they were complaining about going to Afghanistan, from the start!"

No Tad, unlike you, I don't lie. Do even minimal homework and you'll see the support numbers for Bush and for action in Afghanistan. It was a substantial majority.

Of course there were people who were against that war - there are ALWAYS people who are against any war.

The rest of your post consists mainly of silly deflections and feints, so not worth my time responding.

TeaBaggers!

Tad -

It's one thing for bloggers to hurl insults, it's quite another for professional "journalists" to display such open hostility toward people with whom they disagree.

Click the one I posted above. I heard the ones that Rex posted above. I've already said in my post above that there is no excuse for a "journalist" to be openly hostile to the group he or she is covering unless they are intending to offer up commentary that could have angry looks and shouts directed at them. Violence, however, isn't ever justifiable when it comes to the use of harsh words against your cause.

If you're standing in the middle of a group of gay men and say "I wish these faggots would just go away", you might be lucky to make it out of there without being scratched or slapped or beaten with a purse.

Regardless. Criticism IS fair play. That's why it's the FIRST amendment.

I'm sure Bill O'Reilly will be along shortly to tell me how I'm showing sympathy and support for teabaggers.

Sanan says, "Do even minimal homework and you'll see the support numbers for Bush and for action in Afghanistan. It was a substantial majority."

I was posting here, at the time, Sanan and so you can't tell me that he had support from the yellow-dog-democrats, here!

You typically don't even try and justify the almost immediate partisan effort from the Democrats to criticize Bush for NOT capturing bin Laden, because the leftists on this site were using it to defame and revile a Republican president!

Meanwhile, Clinton had still not proven any genocide by Serbia, and NATO/EU had to murder Milosovic with a polonium cocktail to avoid a trial that would have proven Serbia's innocence.

Wow! And, we're still paying for Bosnia and invading Serbia! Just like we're still paying the Korean war, you leftists forget about, so you can blame Bush for Iraq's war length.

Hmmm, Bosnia started in '65 and continuing today, but Iraq is evil for lasting 7 plus years ...

The Cursing and Lying mob can't defend that Obama hasn't captured bin Laden!

Only call protestors "teabaggers" and pretend that their party is the "educated" and "civilized" ones ... utopianist fools ...

Of course there were people who were against that war - there are ALWAYS people who are against any war.

The rest of your post consists mainly of silly deflections and feints, so not worth my time responding.

"I was posting here, at the time, Sanan and so you can't tell me that he had support from the yellow-dog-democrats, here!"

And Tad moves the goalposts once again when shown to be wrong.

Don't let those pesky fact things get in the way of a good spittle-projecting rant.

You've embarrassed yourself yet again. Getting to be quite the habit for you lately.

Just like Rush & his whole defeat thing, wishing policies you don't believe in to not be successful isn't the same thing as wishing defeat on America.

Saying that someone who wishes to leave Iraq because they never attacked us, were not a threat to us and the war is being mismanaged can never, ever be equated to being a "terrorist loving surrender monkey", which many on the right, including Rush Limbaugh, are guilty of.

As long as we keep doing this to each other & ourselves we're never going to get anywhere. Both parties suck outloud & it's our fault for keeping them in power.

Agreed.

The fact that die-hard republicans and democrats will vote for the respective parties without questioning the policies of candidate pretty much gives the candidate permission to continue to be a useless fuck.

So long as the money keeps flowing in.

"What do you really think when you are off your high horse "agreement" with the Left, and your effort to patronize righteous DISAGREEMENT?"

#332 | Posted by tadowe

I'm not patronizing anyone & I sure as hell don't agree with the left.

I think that the protests using the image of what founded our nation in the first place are far more sensible, effective, & poignant than screaming at grieving mothers. I also think it says a lot about the left that they either truly don't or just refuse to see the distinction.

I also agree that the vitriol from the left is more intense & personal & seems to have little to do with getting things done & more to do with winning at any cost on their social engineering projects. Further, the whole "government should care for the little guy" approach is condescending & insulting. They care about votes. I don't care so much about the government caring as long as they don't implement policies that keep ME from caring for me & mine & my fellow man. Another fundamental difference from the nanny state the left wants. Control over families & private charities & businesses are not the hallmarks of the right in this country.

My point is, what's the fucking point? There is nothing on the R side of the aisle that leads me to believe they have much interest in anything other than their own power as much as the D's. I'm in a "lesser of 2 evils" situation at this point. I don't go through life reacting to what everyone else says & does. I feel & think the way I do & try to stay informed & not be a slave to any party or ideology. That kind of thinking on both sides is what got us into this mess.

Having said that, I'd take R's over D's anyway because I think their ideology is dangerous in the world we live in.

Sanan can't understand.

Too bad, Sanan, that you are self-blinded like this.

That's actually the attitude displayed by the brownshirts in NAZI Germany when they felt justified in beating Jews and destroying their businesses during the Pogrom begun to destroy them, genocidally.

You dish the insults out wholesale, but when someone complains or disagrees, your ilk put on your jackboots, and in league with the state media, call Republicans "teabaggers," and other names you issue like verbal batons.

None of your accusations are the "truth;" e.g., the war was a lie, Bush is a murderer, Bush is a nazi, Bush is an imperialist, Bush lied, Bush stumbled, Bush made a mistake, Bush this-and-that, over-and-over even up to the present.

Yet, you whine and moan like you're being waterboarded if someone comes along and reasons why your insults and hysterical lies are more applicable to you and your ilk of gang-like partisans.

What a pack of puling hypocrites you just happen to be!

#344 | Posted by tadowe

For all your deflections and contortions, you still can't escape the fact that you were WRONG again.

But your Nazi fetish today is kinda fun. And I'm trying to figure out why, in your clouded, deluded mind, it is OK for YOU to call people who disagree with you vile names, but woe unto any who dare reciprocate.

Funny that.

"I'm not patronizing anyone & I sure as hell don't agree with the left."

In effect you agreed that, 'Both sides do the same,' and that is in agreement with the excuse the left inevitably uses to justify their lies.

I, personally, have reviled and dehumanized Democrats/leftists/liberals/
progressives and others for their lies - not unreasonably just called them names, unsupported.

I reason my insults and describe why Democrats are what term I may apply to them, whereas Democrats make no effort to reason their own insults, but simply spout them in repetition from their puppetmaster bellwhether(s.)

That's why I always become the subject, because I'm effective in supporting my insults, and where the left are impelled to unreasonable, and lying propaganda.

Your "agreement," with Democrats is not considered as being reasonbly bipartisan, it is taken to mean that Democrats are correct in *everything* they spew against the Republicans, and including that there is no effort from the right to bipartisanship. Your "exception" in trying to reason used as a "rule" for them to continue to lie about that.

However, maybe you aren't swift enough for that understanding, or "slow" if you wish that appearance on my part to be, and can't see that "reason" from the right is nothing but "teabagging?" That your "agreement" is justification for using that epithet?

Welcome to TadoweWorld, Biggie.

Sanan joins in 'agreement,' "Welcome to TadoweWorld, Biggie."

See? That the lying is inveterate, and since this is the "Drudge Retort," dedicated to Yellow-Dog-Democrats, and isn't "TadoweWorld," at all?

However, go on and agree with Democrat excuses for calling a peaceful protest against taxes and this administration's actions, "Teabaggers." That's your right of free speech, after all.

(BTW, notice that Sanan makes me the subject, unreasonably? Eh? - I must be a "Teabagger," a name justified because, and you agree, Republicans "call names," too ...)

....Tad....

...the roofies are working great.......

The Tadowe method of deflection - keep talking and stalling and maybe no one will remember that you were WRONG AGAIN.

Ok, let's Come up with a list of alternative names we can call them:

1) Racists
2) Sore losers
3) Revisionists (for saying this mess is Obama's fault - and not W's)
4)Idiots
5)Fiction writers

A note to the "Teabagging Teabagers: The GOP lost. Your party has failed. You lost because you Elected Bush/Cheney twice. You can no longer be trusted to be logical because of that fact. Time to pay your fair share! You are the reason that America is in such a mess right now! Now Get over it. Care about your fellow citizen once in a while, not just your own check book.

You don't reall support our troops, you support the Military Industrial Comples and the CIA. You applaud fighting two wars in the deserts of the Middle East, at ~$30B a week but don't see how that killed the US Economy, along with Wall Street's Greed.

And please stop evoking the founding fathers theme in your "protests" - they were much smarter than you and were actually patriots. unlike you!

Oh, and FOX IS NOT A NEWS STATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

"How do you like them Apples...?"

Nice Rant BPMROX. Keep it up. Dipshits like you will put conservatives back in power.

- Racist, Sore loser, Revisionist, Idiot, Fiction Writing Conservative.

BTW Fox is more news than MSNBC

"For all your deflections and contortions, you still can't escape the fact that you were WRONG again"

You know, actually TADOWE is kind of right it's just unfortunate that he happens to be the kind of condescending lecturer that no one will ever listen to.

Following blindly any of these idiots is self-defeating to the American people. Tad, I understand the anger but you seem to expect better from the left in this country? Why? No surprise here. Nor should you be shocked at the media looking the other way or even worse, supporting it. Par for the course in today's American "journalism" profession.

Sanan can't stop with me as his subject! I love it!

Sanan says, "But your Nazi fetish today is kinda fun."

Well, I do get some schadenfreude from having my misanthropy justified by the blatant hypocrisy displayed by the Leftist hatemongers, the war profiteers in votes by wanting to lose a war to terrorists, and reviling our president during wartime as a "NAZI."

Right here on this site and soon after the Iraq invasion to end fear of WMD, imperialistic actions and threats, attacks on our ally, arming terrorists and conducting genocide against two of his country's major groups, stooges and dupes of the Left and Democrats called Bush that very name!

Now, you whining cowards for votes pule and moan when the epithet is used to describe your own actions and rank bigotry quite accurately as nazi-like and that your goosestepping agreement is proof that the People's Progressive Democrat People's Party is hand-in-glove agreement with Goebbels-like propaganda to dehumanize and revile Republicans and other concerned citizens as:

"Teabagging, cleaving to their bibles, gun toting, rightwing militia terrorists who may recruit rightwing soldiers to their evil cause of terrorism, and are liars because they support Bush who spent nearly 1 Trillion, the big-government murderer."

Napolotano stands by those accusations about our soldier citizens who volunteered to defend our nation - they may be "Teabaggers!"

For fuck's sake, the average democrat here has tons more in common with them than I do, but I manage to be seen by righties as somebody here who is reasonable (except when talking to fwad or theo I guess). You should ask yourself why that's the case.

#151 | Posted by Hagbard_Celine

As a non-teabagging rightie, you have my respect not because you don't insult me on a regular basis, but because you're unafraid to toss out a criticism toward those left of center when you see it. Kanrei's got the same respect, and he uses harsher rhetoric, and even voted Obama. It's the ability to set aside partisanship when your side does something wrong IMO. (knowing dems aren't your side per se)

Plus I love that you can so easily get Beletg to soak through his tampon as is evidenced by this thread.

Thank you LOD. I don't mean the "harsher rhetoric" most times, but I am having a bad year and still am not smoking, so my tolerance is way down.

#354 | Posted by tadowe

Hey, once you start lying and get on a roll, why stop? Soldier on Tad.

How do you figure dumb-ass? I hate the GOP! and will do every thing to keep them out of office.

Every Teabagging protester I know is a staunch republican who voted for Bush/Cheney...and doesn't want gun laws changed, and thinks .03% = 20%, and is probably deep down a racist. How about you?

I am the furthest thing from a Conservative!

The Fact that you support Fox speaks volumes about your political aptitude. So: Please do not reproduce - the world depends on it.

Do you agree with this effort? The Republicans are:

"1) Racists
2) Sore losers
3) Revisionists (for saying this mess is Obama's fault - and not W's)
4)Idiots
5)Fiction writers"

No reasoning these efforts - just spewing them like rote provided by their puppetmaster propagandists. The list has changed a bit, but at the beginning of Iraq, that list included: nazi, imperialist, warmonger, fascist, hatemonger, ad nauseam.

Now, those on the left and their media puppets mock protest as "teabagging," while the protests of Democrats are "patriotic" and "heroic."

Now, the whole world is becoming aware of just what party more resembles the NAZI, are inveterate liars, will abandon their allies for money, and actually support the money interests of the world: the Banks.

Obama and the dupes and stooges support the biggest business interests in the world, while they defame and revile American stock ownership; capitalism.

Gigantic, world class hypocrites and jackbooted scum, marching and saluting their leader in perfect unison ...

Tad's posts needs some correction:

He spent is career expanding government power, euphemistically called "defend our nation." Now he squeals when it turns against him.

Nobody accused the soldiers of anything, the report said right wing groups will look to enlist returning vets, not that returning vets are looking to join right wing groups.

Tad's posts needs some correction:

#360 | Posted by kanrei

I attempted to point out that hypocrisy to him a few posts back.

Unfortunately, we are both trying to communicate a concept that he is completely unable to comprehend. Because, you see, all that Tad says and believes is right and holy. Anything else is jack-booted Nazi treachery.

I tried the same thing last night with Rex, no go and Rex is someone I can talk to and reason with.

Sana,
I am proud of this from last night actually:

The ground available for the left to blindly support the office of the President and for the right to support the right to protest is diminishing rapidly. Hypocrisy takes a lot of room.

Kanrei agrees, "...while the protests of Republicans are "patriotic" and "heroic.""

Why take my comment out of context, if in bipartisan agreement, you say that I can do the same because both sides do that?

It is TREASONOUS to try and lose a war for votes, Kanrei!

Otherwise justify why it is not so.

It is sympathizing with our enemy, when you attempt to revile those who are fighting door-to-door with them, and agreeing with al Jazeera lies that those soldiers are murderers, not heroes fighting terrorism!

You take one incident, which turned out to be a propagandistic lie, and the party uses it to spread hate and revulsion for US soldiers, thereby agreeing with the enemy's even more exaggerated claims and accusations!

The Democrats did defend that Iraq should not have been invaded and that Saddam should have been allowed to remain threatening with WMD, blackmarketeering in oil with the EU, starving his citizens by selling aid to the EU for bunkers and military installations, to continue his known genocide against the Kurds and the Shiite majority ... what a lie that you didn't defend Saddam Hussein!

The rest of the insults have all been justified over-and-over here, by myself and others ... you blatant liars and hypocrites!

However, thanks for making me the subject, Kanrei, out of context. You all are so obtuse, it is pitiful ...

Just type "Duh" Tad, it will save everyone time and express the same lack of thought all your posts express.

Every Teabagging protester I know is a staunch republican who voted for Bush/Cheney...and doesn't want gun laws changed, and thinks .03% = 20%, and is probably deep down a racist. How about you?

How many total teabaggers do you know?

You're anecdotal evidence is just that.

So you know some douchebag Republicans and/or conservatives. Big deal.

I know some douchebag liberals and/or Democrats.

Where does that leave us?

PS - Enough with the race card already. If we learned one thing during the primaries it's that not only are liberals and/or Dems WAY more fixated on race than Conservatives; we also learned that the most blatant displays of racism seem to come from the left.

LoD,

I remember reading an op-ed piece about a week ago written by a British journalist.

She had one comment that was very apropos:

Americans seem to want European socialism at American tax rates.

Lol! I'm now the subject who "doesn't get it!"

Listen, you puling leftist liars and nazi-like hypocrites! I'm here to enjoy my bigotry and prejudice against the traitor and liars of the left, most of whom are DEMOCRATS!

I'm not your kind of slimey hypocrite who pretends to be "sensitive" and only use nice words to discuss issues, because I'm here to call you the same names you've projected at the rightwing since your mob of socialist cowards gained control of the Democrat party in '68!

I won't be nice to you stupid liars, and just as I will disagree with anyone from the right who displays the same stupidity.

See, we can read or that, or you could just type "duh" and either way, we would know you are an idiot, but one way takes far less time.

"I won't be nice to you stupid liars..."

Says the guy who keeps getting caught in his own lies lately.

While I voted for Obama in 2008, I am seeing him as a one termer. His plans do not match his income streams and he is just continuing GWB's march to oblivion.

I support nothing that Bush ever did. He caused this crisis by destroying the middle east like some green behind the ear power hungry "Texass" village idiot! I support putting those criminals from "the institutions deemed unable to fail (AIG)," or else as Bernake says, "that would cause a global economic depression" -- in jail. Exactly where Bush/Cheney belong. I don't really like a lot of the handouts going on with this admin...but Bush did this and them left office -- and the same FED is in place and is saying that this must be done, or else -- Cheney kept his boot on Bernake's throat just long enough to get away clean...sounds just like Enron, no? Dude, you are blaming the wrong person. Had Bush/Cheney been able to even get a meeting with the Congress, and somehow got another TARP like bailout, they still wouldn't have told anyone where it was going or who he was bribing or paying back for some coupe in some 3rd world country... or to pay his bill to the Mexican/Colombian Drug lords...yes, that's what I said. How do you think they keep our publicly traded prison system stocked with inner city prisoners? At least Obama articulated a plan, put it in place, with Full disclosure and within the law. Now we have to see if we can stop the arterial bleeding that Bush/Cheney forced on us to fill their pockets. Pray that it works, and stop teabagging, it's gross!

I'm now the subject who "doesn't get it!"
.......#371 | Posted by tadowe

.......truer words were never spoken.......

....you seem oblivious to reality.....a sane person has to wonder if there is any point to discourse with someone as severely delusional........

I only do it because usually within a couple of posts he'll tell some whopper of a lie, then try to weasel out of it.

What's with posters (like Tadowe here) cluttering up the thread with massive blocks of textual nonsense? Someone posts something, and you're lucky to catch it scrolling past the mountains of gibberish surrounding it.

Sanan says, "Says the guy who keeps getting caught in his own lies lately."

What "lie" was that, Sanan? Come on back and make this thread about me, and show all the casual readers how slavishly you do that to misdirect that you can't reply, on point.

As I've said, over and over, that's all you puppets can do, because your masters haven't provided you with any justification for your hatemongering and efforts to dehumanize political disagreement as, "Teabagging," sexual conduct.

The media, and you ilk, have forgotten that protest is "patriotic" and "heroic," when you told about the lies of WMD and efforts to let terrorism win in Iraq. Why is that?

Now, just an effort to disagree with massive government spending, and growing government way beyond all of the bounds you claimed Republicans were doing, is used to justify calling political protest "teabagging," inferring scrotum sucking, prurient and disgusting image of sexuality.

And, I'm the subject to ridicule, right?

Come on! I love it! Make me the icon of your hatemongering lies! Please!

I support putting those criminals from "the institutions deemed unable to fail (AIG)," or else as Bernake says, "that would cause a global economic depression" -- in jail.

Prison because they did a shitty job running a large company?

Had Bush/Cheney been able to even get a meeting with the Congress, and somehow got another TARP like bailout

They didn't have to. They abdicated their power by acknowledging their lame-duck status and allowing Obama to make the call for the second round of TARP money. BTW - More congressional Democrats than Republicans supported both TARP-bailouts.

still wouldn't have told anyone where it was going or who he was bribing or paying back for some coupe in some 3rd world country... or to pay his bill to the Mexican/Colombian Drug lords

The House of Representives controls the purse-strings, not the Executive branch.

How do you think they keep our publicly traded prison system stocked with inner city prisoners?

Because inner-city people commit the most crimes. Regardles, I DO feel that the penalties for drug use are too stiff.

At least Obama articulated a plan, put it in place, with Full disclosure and within the law.

His "plan" calls for corporate welfare on a never-before seen scale. His plan calls for a "stimulus" bill that is awfully lacking in real "stimulus". His "plan" calls for a $2 Trillion deficit in one year!. I understand that given his circumstances, a deficit budget had to happen. Nevertheless, the amounts of money we are talking about puts this country at an unsustainable level of debt and he's going to have to increase taxes accross the board to have any hope of paying for even a portion of this.

Now we have to see if we can stop the arterial bleeding that Bush/Cheney forced on us to fill their pockets.

How? By even more egregious spending toward the cause of lining the Dems pockets?

......but it's really not nice to make fun of handicapped people ...so I'll stop...

......so I'm off to the store to get some beer on my way home from work....

....hockey play-offs have started.....I'd love Chicago or Washington to win......

.....Washington's got Ovechkin......most exciting player in the game...........anyways.......

See, Big?

The slavish left is incapable of realizing their own hypocrisy; your agreement that both sides do it only allows them to continue with their calumny.

On the other hand, I should be able to conduct my commentary, as the Democrats do, by using insults because "both sides do it." However, the petty tyrants of the Left disagree!

They work to disallow any such efforts on the part of rightwingers, calling them this-or-that, like "teabaggers" all in order to dehumanize that dissent they allowed themselves when issuing from their opponents.

It is especially disallowed, if your insults are justified by the actions and words of those Leftists who permit themselves to act-out like NAZI propagandists! You've noticed, so you must be verbally assaulted into oblivioun for your temerity in disagreeing with their petty tyrannical efforts.

What a pack of verminous backstabbing liars they make of themselves ... hypocrites being the kindest term that can be used to describe them.

Sanan just can't quite find a lie he accused me of, "Yes. Yes you are. Must be nice to still be useful at your age."

See? You actually don't believe that I enjoy being made the subject of each thread I comment in!

It does confirm my comments, Sanan, but I guess you will never be able to understand that...

Someone please bribe the nurse to take his keyboard away...

"Sanan just can't quite find a lie he accused me of,"

I've pointed them out to you, and backed them up with proof several times over the past few days. All that does is start a new spate of bobbing, weaving, and more lying.

And just so you know, you couldn't possibly enjoy being "made the subject" as much as we enjoy making you the subject. Because as soon as you lie, you ARE the subject.

Teabagging is not a euphemism for "cock sucking"

Now, carry on, spew forth at will.

#307 | Posted by SanAntonioRogue

Ummmm, sorry but if you're teabagging then you are certainly sucking cock as well. You think they just lay there and lick each others balls the whole time? Safe to say that teabagging leads to sucking cock so he has it right.

Something like the $3 trillion Bush spent on his wars of terror? Or the Billions given to Saudi Arabia & The UAEs so they buy Boeing's planes? Or something like the corporate welfare under the 8 years of Clinton? - That's a joke... It was the most prosperous 8 years, with a manage & balanced budget, in recent history. You and Bush did this PAL, we are bailing out Bush! Because you Elected the Jerkoff twice. Nobody wanted to have to do this but Bush was asleep at the switch from day one and little Dickie Cheney was running the show. They and you are the Dark side of force -- and again, please do not reproduce!

I kicked and screamed over Bush's and the GOP's reckless fiscal policies.

Yet, Obama and the Dems are poised to make them look like pikers by comparison, and you either make lame excuses for them or rattle off a series of deflections and non-sequiturs.

Here is the difference Jeff.

Bush's reckless policies got us where we are today.

Obama's policies are trying to get us out of the hole Bush got us in.

You are a Teabagger Ray.

You know, the best financial move I ever made was to get over 100k in debt. As I have paid that debt down, I have become more wealthy. Maybe you missed economics, but it takes money to make money.

Just sit in the corner and watch. You can have your say again in 2012. Until then, enjoy your tea bags!

When your income taxes go up, we can talk, but face it, this bailout has not brought a single dime out of your pocket Live.

It just hasn't and you know it.

Let me know when Obama charges you more on your income than the last guy and then you can make your outlandish statements.

Until then, acknowledge the bailout has not had one negative affect on you or anyone that you know.

You are just bitching to bitch and you know that too.

Good, because that is the truth.

And as far as the bailout money goes, a lot of the banks are getting ready to pay back those loans with interest.

You are about to make some money on that investment Mr. Tax Payer. How does it feel?

Sounds like you've had enough first hand experience to be considered the expert.

But you're incorrect. Tea bagging, in fact, is not even always a sexual act, but is just as often done as a prank.

I kicked and screamed over Bush's and the GOP's reckless fiscal policies.

Tru dat.

Yet, Obama and the Dems are poised to make them look like pikers by comparison, and you either make lame excuses for them or rattle off a series of deflections and non-sequiturs.

Subsidised losses and bailouts and privitised profits aint capitalism or free enterprise.

It is the perpetuation of a corporate welfare state that will inevitably lead to a neo-fuedal society where a small minority of hyper rich will rule all while the working poor wallow in misery and suffering.

And that's wrong no matter who does it.

Spud opposed the Bailouts when Bush did 'em and opposes them now that Obama is doing them.

While the disparity of wealth between the US and much of the rest of the world has traditionally benifitted a large number of Americans this is no longer so much the case.

The trade off there has been that America has had to crush burgeoining democracies abroad (despite all rhetoric to the contrary) and support the worst dictators on the planet in order to achieve those ends.

All in order to maximise the profits of the investment class in the US and US based corporations.

Now the US government takes its marching orders from transnational elites and the same conditions once imposed on others by economic terrorism, subversion of foreign governments or their armies or outright invasion is finally coming home to roost.

Living standards for the working classes have consistently declined since the late sixties.

Since the late seventies even the college educated working classes have seen their prospects dim.

That's the big picture here.

All ideas and concepts comepletely inexpressable in mainstream Western media.

Meanwhile the "play both sides against the middle" game plan from DC continues apace with great success in terms of distractinbg the populace from uniting against their common enemies.

And so it goes.

Be Well.
