Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

"It's not about bashing Democrats, it's not about taxes, they have no idea what the Boston tea party was about, they don't know their history at all. This is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up. That is nothing but a bunch of teabagging rednecks. And there is no way around that. And you know, you can tell these type of right wingers anything and they'll believe it, except the truth. You tell them the truth and they become -- it's like showing Frankenstein's monster fire. They become confused, and angry and highly volatile." -- Janeane Garafolo

"The Bowler" speaks.

Ha! Spud luffs watching rtards get all wound up over Janeanne. Spud may not always agree with her but finds her opinion worth listening to. The histrionics that surround her appearances are awesome to behold. Best part was when she was included on the cast of 24. The favorite program of blood thirsty, torture-happy mouth breathers everywhere now has the woman that draws more fire from the right than Ann Coulter does from the left? Whaaa?! LOL!

In this regard she's semi-correct. Of course there is an element of racism inherent in these TeaBag parties. The Klan sure as fuck didn't vote fer Obama ya know. Spud's problem with Garofolo's statement here is that it doesn't really go far enuff. The haters involved in these angerfests also include the talibaptists who hate anyone who aint like them and who think they're doing "God's work" by attending these rallies. The homophobic evDEVILical element also attend. The gun nuts who are convinced Obama is personally coming over to their trailer to take their guns away are also represented. Pissed off semi-literate neo-con holdovers who hate socialism despite a complete inability to describe wot it is (or democracy fo that matter) round out the numbers alongside bored, unemployed FOX watchers who blindly obey their electrobic master's call to arms without hesitation or thought.

Let the bashing begin!

KO: Congratulations, Pensacola teabaggers. You got spunked. And despite the hatred on display, a few of you actually violated the penal code. But teabagging is now petered out, taint what it used to be. And when you co-opt the next holiday, Fourth of July, try to adopt a holiday food that does not invite the double entendres like, you know, franks and beans.

What made Garafolo's comments so fucking stupid was her speaking in absolutes. This is ALL about racism. These people are ALL teabagging rednecks. Were some crazies present at some of these rallies? Of course - this is true for ALL protests. Were there an awful lot of normal people disgusted with the monstrosity that our government has become - the out-of-control spending and suffocating and unsustainable national debt? You bet your ass there were.

It is possible to be favor small, limited government and NOT be part of the lowest common denominator.

It is possible to disagree with Obama on policy, advocations and actions taken without being a racist.

What made Garafolo's little rant on Olberman so humorous to me is that she failed to recognize the irony in emulating the supposed actions and dim-wittedness of those she was castigating. She accuses ALL of these people of being the most vile pieces of shit on the planet, but in the process acts like a vile piece of shit herself.

As do you. Check and mate.

Yeah, normal people always drag their kids (infants) around on spring break so they can hold Partisan signs (instead of playing) containing words and phrases (some quite obscene) they cant possibly comprehend just so their parents can hear the same people who "Stayed the Course" into financial ruin repeat the last eight years worth of nonsense!!

Surprise, another retarded lefty pulls out the old racism card. Aren't the teabaggers funny enough without having to make shit up?

Tru that but the irony, of course, that the current GOP is committed to the idea of making government so big and so much in debt that it can no longer function.

Yes, it is but to try and disavow the racists in the GOP is to be blind to reality.

Did Garafolo paint with too broad a brush here?

Undoubtedly.

Were her observations correct on a more limited scale?

See above answer.

Hell, just check out the vid KO played to open that interview. A guy comes out and thanks the veterans and gets a big round of applause and continues getting applause as he castigates government for overspending. Then he lays a large portion of the blame on the Bush Admin (quite rightfully) and the crowd stops cheering and starts booing.

A thing of beauty was that.

And a case in point.

Be Well.

The pant-pissing teabaggers should be pissed off at their "intellectual betters" that planned, promoted and paid for this abortion of a protest. They were the ones too stupid to do the 10 seconds of research that would have found out what teabagging means.

Don't get pissed at the other 99.7% of America that thinks you are all idiotic fools for falling for this crap. We aren't laughing with you. We are laughing at you.

PLAGIARIZED CONTENT AHEAD:

As it happens, opponents of abolitionism were among the first to appropriate tea party references in their rhetoric; James Austin (Massachusetts AG from 1832 to 1843) went so far as to liken the murderers of abolitionist Elijah Lovejoy to Tea Party patriots.

MORE CUT'N'Paste AHEAD:

December 8, 1837

Elijah Lovejoy was not only defending the freedom of the press, but he was under his own roof, in arms with the sanction of the civil authority. The men who assailed him went against and over the laws. The mob, as the gentleman (a previous speaker) terms itmob, forsooth! certainly we sons of the tea-spillers are a marvelously patient generation!the 'orderly mob' which assembled in the Old South to destroy the tea, were met to resist, not the laws, but illegal enactions. Shame on the American who calls the tea tax and stamp act laws! Our fathers resisted, not the King's prerogative, but the King's usurpation. To find any other account, you must read our revolutionary history upside down. Our state archives are loaded with arguments of [American statesman] John Adams to prove the taxes laid by the British Parliament unconstitutionalbeyond its power. It was not until this was made out that the men of New England rushed to arms. The arguments of the Council Chamber and the House of Representatives preceded and sanctioned the contest. To draw the conduct of our ancestors into a precedent for mobs, for a right to resist laws we ourselves have enacted, is an insult to their memory. The difference between the excitements of those days and our own, which the gentleman in kindness to the latter has overlooked, is simply this: the men of that day went for the right, as secured by the laws. They were the people rising to sustain the laws and Constitution of the province. The rioters of our days go for their own wills, right or wrong. Sir, when I heard the gentleman lay down principles which place the murderers of Alton side by side with [James] Otis and [John] Hancock, with [Josiah] Quincy and [John] Adams [all colonial patriots], I though those pictured lips [pointing to the portraits in the hall] would have broken into voice to rebuke the recreant Americanthe slanderer of the dead. The gentleman said that he should sink into insignificance if he dared to gainsay the principles of these resolutions. Sir, for the sentiments he had uttered, on soil consecrated by the prayers of Puritans and the blood of patriots, the earth should have yawned and swallowed him up.

END CUT'N'Paste

For you mouth breathers, Elija Lovejoy was a prominent abolitionist who was murdered by a mob of pro-slavery goons.

It just dawned on me where Schlog-boy Johnson stole his writing style from. Pre civil war Slavery proponents. It all makes so much sense now!!!!

I think the underwhelming support and success of the teabaggers is completely due to their inability to protest. They don't know how. You can't lick authority's boots your whole life and then become a guerrilla granny.

Perhaps if at some point in the last 40 years so-called conservatives had gotten up off their fat asses to prevent --rather than elect-- big government douchebag politicians this "movement" might have gotten some traction?

As it stands most of these protesters would have been better served by yelling into a mirror with a cat-o-nine-tails and wailing away until their own culpability sinks in.

By the way, when you're telling these little stories, here's a good idea. Have a point. It makes it more interesting for the listener.

hmmm... Rednecks, Didn't know their were any rednecks in lower Manhattan

Timbicile,

Redneck is a state of (lack of) mind, not a geographic designator.

Notice the slack jaw, the vacant look, the spittle dribbling from the left corner of the mouth. See the teabaggers and count the rednecks. Any honest person would say at least 75% were rednecks.

Americans pay about half of what they earn on taxes. To equate this to racism is fucked up.

Actually redneck is a term for Southern farmers. The farmers sweat used to cause the red dye to run on the hankerchief wrapped around their necks.

Then again I am sure you would prefer to remain ignorant.

I was near City Hall for a meeting yesterday with a vendor and I saw people dressed in suits and business casual. I am sure about 25% were unemployed liberals looking for a handout from Bloomberg. Bloomberg and his lesbian lackey Quinn are all too happy to oblige the weakminded NYorkers looking for a handout


Americans pay about half of what they earn on taxes. To equate this to racism is fucked up.

#30 | Posted by Ray

So why did these rednecks protest against the Black President over taxes owed under the Bush administration?

I didn't see Bush's picture on any of those fucking signs.

This was a gross diplay of ignorant filled hate from the worst of our society.

Sorry to have to call your bullshit what it is, but you aren't even close to reality.

DING DING DING: Wrong again Timbicile.

The origin of the term REDNECK was the red kerchiefs the goons coal mining companies hired to beat up striking mine workers. They wore the kerchiefs so they would not beat each other up by mistake.

Do not pass go, do not collect your welfare check this week.

Looks like someone has a Mancrush on Borat/Bruno.

Sorry but Bush isn't the President Obama is.
Furthermore, the liberals use of the word "rednecks" is racist. It is the equivalent of calling black people certain terms characterized by the media as being racist.

The signs I saw in City Hall seemed to me more about irresponsible spending.

I am actually suprised more people in NY aren't concerned about taxes as NY state and NYC taxes are out of control.

NY State gets over 10% of its tax revenue from financial services and NYC gets close to 10% as well. Guess what that tax revenue will be signifigantly smaller for years. MTA is raising subway fares and closing down subway lines and bus routes. 1/3 of NYC's tax revenue goes to paying pension benefits.

There will soon be a tax crisis in NYC

Barfaolo is the discharge of a syphilitic leper cock.

Hmmm... It seems you know a lot about welfare.
Nice try at your bullshit explaination.
Let me guess you went to public school.

So why did these rednecks protest against the Black President over taxes owed under the Bush administration?

Coincidence does not prove cause and effect. The economy has worsened considerably since Bush left office and April 15th brought a special reminder. People are losing jobs, taking pay cuts and furloughs while the states are increasing taxes to stay afloat. They see their savings and 401Ks collapse. They're taking a big hit on the value of their homes while real estate taxes stay the same. In short, Americans are caught in a vice of falling income and rising costs. Taxes are easily a household's largest expense. If Obama was white, it would have made no difference.

Olbermann LOL. He is rather funny. He has this giant ego yet he has no reason for it. He ratings are in the toilet. Rather sad actually. I bet Ed Schultz will get better ratings than him.

Timby,

You are the one that fucked up the origin of Redneck.

There are a couple of different origins cited and only one involves a red kerchief. The coal mining one.

You seem to have combined the two origins into your own.

Farmers didn't need to have red dye to make their necks red. The sun did that.

Timbicile,

Admit you are wrong, pussy. And I'd put my 1960's vintage public school diploma up against your dishonorable discharge from 'Mrs. Schlomoe's Home for Wayward Adolescents' any day.

Spud, most of us appreciate being informed by your personal reports concerning the people among whom you live and with whom you associate.

Now do you have an abode in another trailer park in the U.S., or are your Canuck neighbors, your "parkies," also interested in the lively American political system?

Sometimes you're so indirect. Are you "bragging" that you have a "vacation home" in a trailer park in the U.S. as well as your trailer park home in Canada?

You are not collecting welfare in both countries, deth, are you? Is that lawful?

Quite naturally, we would expect you to bluster against any action that might lead to a reduction in "benefits" to non-productive indigents. In a consumer society, deth, do you maintain your self-esteem by pretending that consumption of what other people produce, is an essential function?

What's the basis for your entitlement, deth? Are you aged, or disabled, impaired by the same ailment that causes you to mangle orthography and refer to yourself in the third person? If you require an affidavit, deth, if there is controversy concerning your elibility, I'd be more than willing to submit an affidavit in your behalf regarding your addled thought process as an impairment which limits your functioning. I'll also testify to your extreme anger control problems and the need to denigrate others. Poor soul.

With all compassion, yours in Christ.

You have become his target audience. I am sure he gets a kick out of infuriating the loons on the left. If I want to know what Rush said in his radio show all I have to do is watch MSNBC

Obama's single most effective campaign strategy when he ran against Hillary in the primaries is white guilt. Gee I wonder if it will work now that he is President

1. "artificially raising the costs of energy,"
2. "wasting money on health care, and lastly"
3. "baing out irresponsible real estate buyers who can't afford their mortgages"

Every one of these proven false bullshit talking points was delivered directly into what Timbiciles jokingly calls his brain by direct contact from G-D. He never heard them from Rush or the talking heads on Fox. G-D gave them directly to him.

We are all wrong calling his a Flushbot dittohead.

(Somehow, I think G-D could have spelled 'bailing' better than that.)

Unless they were displaying or shouting racial slurs, you are a total fool. Really. The tax burden averages somewhere around 50% of income. When is it too much?

Ray,

Examine your own finances. Can you honestly say that you pay nearly 50%. There isn't a single person making over $250K paying anywhere near that much unless they have Timbicile for a financial adviser.

Be honest, now.

Well, Rev. Wright's disciple is showing his true colors. He's an equalizer with a grievance, and in one of his presentations indicated that he would prefer everyone have less, even "the disadvantaged," if there would be a more equal distribution of goods.

Because of his origins, he identifies with minorities, and blacks particularly. His wife has declared that she would always seek black preference.

Naive Americans will find that the compunctions they have concerning "fair and equal" treatment, which has been a priority in American society while whites have been dominant, is not a value shared by others, who seek preference for themselves based on group identity.

We are in a crisis situation in the U.S. with California the "canary in the cage" demonstrating the impossibility of supporting large groups of people, who lack the ability and the motivation to develop skill sets necessary to sustain a higher level of living in a technological-scientifically based industrial society. In many third world countries, this is addressed by maintaining a bifurcated system with rich and poor.

We had a balance in A merica with the black community as a particular burden. The proportion of underachievers, those unable to master skill sets, is larger in these two minority communities. But now with the influx of the Latino population, there is a higher proportion of underachievers, those unable to equitably contribute to the commonweal, but who are nevertheless sustained by the society. This group has grown to proportions that mitigate against a sustainable level of the current relatively high standard of living. So, Obama is committed to distribute goods and services "equitably" according to number, among all groups. The process and controls stifles productivity and freedom and initiative and entrepreneurship, and results with less for everyone. But that's Obama's mentor's value system that Obama is translating in to a reality.

And is this maddrassah indoctrinated individual, who instinctively submits to an Islamic monarch, also a believer in Islamic world dominance?

What planet to you come from where the tax burden is 50%? Really.
#64 | Posted by axe

The cost of government, federal, state and local adds up to about half of GNP. It's disbursed, hidden and pushed into the future so you don't see it.

Do you have an idea how much debt and obligations the federal government has accumulated? I'll tell you: $70 Trillion, more than the GNP for the whole world and $200,000 for every American man, woman and child.

The art of taxation is to fleece the people without too much protest. Over time, taxes reach such a punitive threshold that the protests increase and tax evasion increases. That's where this is going.

Check out this collection of "Sane, Rational Thinking" Teabagger protest signs. Some of those sure seem racist to me.

How about Earth, homeboy?

Let's see: income taxes, state, federal, and in some jurisdictions, city taxes. Social security taxes. UIB. And the mandatory insurance, workers' compensation that is deducted from net earnings in determining if there is a net profit, actually a tax levied on the workers. Oh how about deductions for MediCare, an insurance program?

And them of course, there are sales and use taxes, and property taxes, real and personal.

But I suppose that among some people there is no cumulation.

Oh, for a realty check, examine the California state income tax rate, and the sales tax rate, to which some local communities have added their own levies, and there are the special districts. And try New York which also has a city income tax, doesn't it?

And flippity floppity it is. The Right makes fiscal conservatism and budget balancing one of their base issues - unless they are in power. At least the Left is honest. They don't hide their penchant for spending other people's money.

Let's face it. Left or Right, politicians cannot control their spending.

reinheitsgebot,

Am I to conclude from your post #19 that Damon Wayans, the person who created the Homey the Clown character, is in fact a racist?

Why is it racist when a non black person refers to comedy skit, and when a black person does, it's humorous?

I think this is a bit of a double standard. I don't judge a person by their gender or the color of their skin. I judge a person by their honesty and ability. Your comments seem to indicate, and I mean this in the nicest way, that you are lacking in those qualities.

I am waiting for BHO to improve his do/say ratio. I realize that he has only been in office for about 90 days, but when are the excuses going to stop?

The situation we are in was caused by more than eight years of one administration. I really don't care who was responsible because I can't change the past, and I would venture to guess that nor can you.

I'm looking for someone who can fix this mess and not spend me into the poorhouse. That was the real meaning behind the 'Tea Parties'. Honest protests against a NEW policy of bailing out everyone who made bad decisions, with the money from people who didn't.

I said, 50% is a national average.

The most insidious hidden tax of all is the inflation tax. That's from the new money created by the Federal Reserve to cover federal deficits.

Most protesters have no idea how much they pay in total taxes. What they see is that their net income buys less and less every year.

If you study the rise and fall of nations, they have the common elements of mass corruption, excessive taxes, weak currencies and excessive debts. This is going to get ugly in the years ahead.

The people are angry, but they don't know why other than the fact that they have lost their jobs.

This isn't a real worker revolt.

Unfortunately.

You know the sexual conotation for the word tea bagger is inaccurate. It seems to Me if what one partner does to the other partners scrotem would be Roasting Nuts instead of Teabaggery. Seems to Me if You were "Tea Bagging" You wouldn't have a big old lump in the center of each nut sack for in replication of tea. It just doesn't make sense to call it "Tea Bagging. Roasting Nuts is more apt in My Opinion.

The irony in all of this is that those who are posting criticisms of the protestors stand to benefit most if the protestors suceed in blocking these tax and spend policies. At the end of 2008 the national debt was $10 trillion. 2008 fed revenue was $2.5 trillion and expenditures were $2.98 trillion. The 2009 proposal is to spend $3.9 trillion with revenue of $2.2 trillion. Last week Treasury acknowledged 2009 revenue will likely only be $1.9 trillion. Add $1.2 trillion for TARP and $787 billion for stimulus and the Obama debt for 2009 will be $4 trillion, 9 times the deficit for the 2008 budget. The average 20 year old who graduates from college will pay $140,000 just in interest on this debt while the average 50 year old college grad will pay $81,000. This isn't about race, this is about federal spending and the crushing debt load that today's families, students, and children will be forced to bear. See Table S-1, pages 114-116 of the Obama budget on the www.whitehouse.gov website. The fact that Bush spent too much doesn't mean that Obama should spend three times as much.

Nope.

Deficits don't matter when Dems are in charge.


Sincerely,

The Obama tea-baggers

...If you in any way agree with her or Olberfilth, you are too.

~Wrecks Zootsuit

The other day Olbermann came out and sed "Mr President, You are Wrong".

He was talking about Obama' decision to not pursue charges against those who tortured under orders from BushCo.

Do you agree with Obama or KO there?

/At the very least Spud'll have Rex on record agreeing with Obama and that's Win Win!

Be Well.

What I don't understand is that our government is racking up debt at an unsustainable pace and the Obama tea-baggers are cheering. These people don't appear to give a shit that our government is burying itself in debt that it can never re-pay. This government, Republicans included, are royally screwing our kids and grandkids, and so on.

A movement arises protesting this and all that the Obama teabaggers can do is find ridicule. I can't believe any of you assholes don't give a rat's ass about a mountain of unsustainable debt and the consequences that future generations will bear as a result. Greedy fucks!

If all federal taxes for all US citizens were tripled this year the tax revenue would still not cover the cost of expenditures proposed by the Obama Administration for 2009. And, Nancy Pelosi and President Obama are even now beginning to discuss an additional "stimulus" spending bill. While I agree that it is unpatriotic to pay taxes that are lawfully due - how many members of Congress and the Administration have failed by this standard? - it is patriotic to defend the futures of the young and the futures of generations to follow.

Sadly the reichwing only likes deficit spending then a reichwing jackass is doing it... not a democrat.

And nothing is learned.

Bush spent too much doesn't mean that Obama should spend three times as much.

This article has a graph that puts it in perspective.

"A movement arises protesting this and all that the Obama teabaggers can do is find ridicule."

"Obama teabaggers"? That's pathetic. Try thinking up something original.

I would like to know if the numbers include all the money that bush took out of the budget(war spending etc.)

These people don't appear to give a shit that our government is burying itself in debt that it can never re-pay.

It *is* possible to be against unsustainable debt and the massive corporate welfare state being created by both parties (on the backs of the working classes) while still noting the cynicism and hypocrisy of the Tea Parties being orchesrated by the self same entities who are benifiting from the corporate largesse and promoted by the same propaganda outlets who cheered on the profligate spending when BushCo were doing it.

Of cours the reaction to the teabaggers by the left was forseen by those who originated the idea.

The "49/51 Percent Solution" TM continues apace.

Classic divide and conquer.

Half the nation wrapping their hands around the other halfs throats and vice versa.

Meanwhile the real villains make out like the bandits they are.

That all sed there is a minor difference between the two parties which is that the Rs tend to obey their corporate taskmasters w/o question w/o delay while the Dems tend to try and recognise nd meet the needs of the average American a little bit beyond rhetorical flourishes.

Spud applauds any protesters who are informed on the issues and concerned about the long term sustainability of the US economy and Spud decries any submoronic shills who snowballed into the protest bringing their anti-choice, homophobic, racist and gun nut agendas with them.

Sorry fer all the nuance there.

Is complicated world.

Be Well.

Actually, an awful lot of "reichwingers" howled very loudly at the recklessly irresponsible fiscal policy of the Bush GOP.

It is the left who finds fault with Bush deficits yet cheer when Obama and the Dems are poised to quintuple those very deficits.

Given what he walked into, a deficit budget is certainly understandable for our new president. Having said that, his numbers are an impossibility.

For the life of me, HagCeline, Kanrei and Phoenix notwithstanding, I am hard-pressed to find a single lib on this site who demonstrates even an iota of care about all of this.

How about "Obama fellators"?

If this was indeed a worker revolt against the corporate/militay/intelligence complex that owns and controls this country then I would think it a good thing.

I certainly understand the hypocrisy charge and this movement would have more cred if it started a couple of years ago.

That pretty much sums it up.


"Actually, an awful lot of "reichwingers" howled very loudly at the recklessly irresponsible fiscal policy of the Bush GOP. "

Yeah, did you see their march on Washington in November, 2004? Or was that a march to the voting booth to vote for Bush?

The lessons of history never learned.

"A dangerous vicious circle comes into action. Increased state expenditure on the army, the bureaucracy, the welfare state commitments brought abut a continual unbearable tax pressure. Tax pressures grew heavier and the tendency to evasion, illegal or legitimate, on the part of high officials and large landowners, was increased ... and was the end of the state."
-Aurelio Bernadi, The Economic Problems of the Roman Empire at the Time of its Decline

If this was indeed a worker revolt against the corporate/militay/intelligence complex that owns and controls this country then I would think it a good thing.

I think that's part of it.

An awful lot of people are sickened by a bloated and wasteful government and the rapidly accumulating debt and its short AND long-term implications.

I just wish this movement would have started before now - it DOES come off as more than a bit-partisan, given its timing.

It IS partisan, Jeff. Not that there aren't sincere people participating, but the backers and promoters of this are GOP politicos, organizations, and fat cats.

There were some, like you, who stood up for what you believed, but most said nothing until it was useful to try and make this seem non-partisan. Now that political points are at stake, suddenly all the "me too's" are crawling out of the woodwork and claiming "we always felt this way".

A Bailout that can help this nation is somehow bad and the tea-baggers want their money back?

OK! As long as I can have my tax dollars back that went to the War in Iraq that you all so desperately wanted and enjoyed.

Let's look at it this way:

One of these cost almost a trillion dollars, 4000+ US Soldiers lives and in the end, we'll have little to nothing to show for it.

The other, caused by the same man who wanted the War, will also cost a trillion dollars and may help save the economy.

Guess which one makes the Bush base the most upset??


Pssssst....it's the one where people don't die.

Apparently pretty stupid.

Politics isn't a zero-sum game.

The fact that Bush was irresponsible shouldn't be a green-light for Obama to do the same.

Bad policy is bad policy regardless of who is in office.

Oh fuck off jeff.

Your sole contribution here is to blame liberals for not being democrats which is the whole fucking point. Democrats are not liberals.

There are no liberals in power.

Not one.

"Democrats are not liberals"

I would put it slightly differently. They are corporate liberals, progressive on social issues, mildly reformist on economics but unwilling to challenge corporate domination of politics, culture, and the economy.

These idiots are going to completely reverse much of what has been accomplished in terms of race relations in the past 30 years. They are throwing around words like "racism" so much that it will completely remove all stigma about it.

Thus:

As of now, I AM PROUDLY RACIST.

I have no idea how you construed that from my posts.

Bull fucking shit nullifidan.

They TALK a lot about being progressive on social issues, but when it comes time to see their proposals for things like heath care, they pay off their pimps like good corporate whores.

So they don't advocate lynching fags/niggers/towel heads: as if this is progressive as opposed to just not be stupid. Big fucking deal.

Everyone acknowledged this during the last 8 years so why is it ok for Obama to do it even more now?

~BPH

There is no left left in American politics just as all conservatives are now faux conservatives.

Both parties are corporatists and centrists first and foremost.

They both play a 49/51% wedge issue game that effectively divides the electorate into two armed and angry camps.

Obama is slightly more progressive than most of the corporate whores in DC and is willing to try some new things or at the very least eliminate some of the worst excesses of the last admin which effectively made him the only candidate worth considering in the last election.

Describing him as a Marxist/Communist/Socialist just indicates that you don't have the first clue as to the grim realities that urrently set the governmental agenda.

Conservatism and liberalism are not the enemies nor the realities.

Corporate fascism is all too real and all too prevelant and has only been growing in strength since Ike first warned of the burgeoning MIC.

The enemy of the elected officials on both sides of the aisles is an angry, aware and organised electorate.

Always has been.

BTW, the whole "saviour" and "White Guilt" things like the "secret Muslim" and "marxist" things are products of the fevered imaginations of right wing morons like Rush and have no basis wotsoever in reality.

Spud, Barfalo is no FAN OF FREE SPEECH, what part of that did you miss?

O Rly?

Spud musta missed the part where she said the protesters didn't have a right to assemble and protest.

Wot's that? She didn't say that?

She simply excercised her right to free speech after the teabaggers excercised theirs.

Or did you miss that part?

^_^

Also part of the problem of the protests was that it wasn't free speech in the sense that it was bought and paid for by right wing shills in order to simulate a real grasroots movement ans was then was promoted by the propagandists over at FOX to an embarrassing degree.

Be Well.

If I understand correctly, the reason there have been jokes about "teabagging" going around originated in an email from Michael Steele:

Republican National Chairman (RNC) Michael Steele is urging Republicans to send a "virtual tea bag" to members of Congress tomorrow.

So on this Tax Day, April 15, the Republican National Committee is asking you, along with hundreds of thousands of grassroots activists across our country, to assert a real patriotic act by sending a virtual tea bag to Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and the rest of the tax, spend and borrow Democrats. Let them know enough is enough and you don't approve of their plan to pass the largest tax hike in American history.

And when you send your virtual tea bag today, I hope you will also take this opportunity to make a secure online contribution of $25, $50, $100, $500 or $1,000 to the RNC today to help fund our efforts to resist the massive tax and spending increases Barack Obama and the Pelosi-Reid Democrats are attempting to ram through Congress.


Source

"virtual tea bag" -- LOL

Holy crap Shawn, you have posted...

------------

Ah the victim pose. The last refuge of the intellectually incontinent.

Garafolo and KO are fully aware that not all the "Tea Party" participants are racists. But so what? They saw an opportunity for political attack, and they took it. That is how both sides work, truth and reality are irrelevant. What do the right's 2009 Tax Day Tea Parties have to do with the sexual act of Teabagging? Nothing. But it was a way to mock and declaw the effort. And it worked to a large extent, because that's just how dumb people are. They saw an opportunity for political attack, and they took it

But what's up with the crybaby act from the righties? Johnson, Ray and JeffJ, need a rattle and pacifier, widdle babies? Haven't Rush, Hannity, Bill O. and their ilk been forever characterizing their targets as "Liberals", "Socialists", etc., regardless of any bastardization of these terms that takes place. All for character assination of their opponents, regardless of they really stand for. Political attack. Maybe the poor, brainwashed dittoheads don't even consciously realize they have selective memories and selective reasoning, as they simultaneously cheer on George Bush's record and Rush's distortions while they cry like babies when the exact same tactics, coming from the left, blow up in their faces.

Boo-mother-f***ing-hoo rightards.

Corporate fascism is all too real and all too prevelant and has only been growing in strength since Ike first warned of the burgeoning MIC.
The enemy of the elected officials on both sides of the aisles is an angry, aware and organised electorate.

The political class finds it to their advantage to let people complain and demonstrate to let off steam. Then business as usual. They are confident that the protesters will vote Demopublican on the mass illusion they have control over government.

All this name calling between parties and ideologies misses the issue. The problem is not between any of them; it's between government and the people. Government is the enemy of the people and people are their own worst enemy. Despite the corruption, they voted for it anyway. Now it's too late. That's why party labels and ideologies don't matter anymore. It's all converged into naked aggression.

Garafalo went too far to say it was all about racism, but for a very large number of the teabaggers, it honestly was.

Our resident 'suck-the-white-guilt-tit' speaks again.

How long will it take Axe? until white guilt is assuaged?

Did you even learn that big, whitey word in gobberment skool?

And this talentless bitch is relevant because????

It takes a real forward, progressive, free-thinker to inspire calling anyone who disagrees with Obama's policies racist. That's original!

I would think that the bulk of blacks voting for Obama strictly based on his race would be considered racist but again, that rule only applies to whites. What happened to that whole "not by the color of their skin but the content of their character" we heard so much about from that MLK guy that blacks & the left celebrate & exploit but who's message they continue to ignore?

Fuck Janeane Garafolo

"Garafolo on teabaggers"

It would be difficult to find anyone worse then the LOW LIFE SCUM BAG Garafolo.

This SCUM BAG has so much hate for opposition that she embarrasses people that call themselves Demoncrats. Democrats should disown this bitch.

As a college instructor, I must say that Ms. Garafolo is way off base here. The tea party that I attended presented speakers such as a tax attorney, M.D.'s, local business people, a missionary from South America, other university faculty members, and several individuals from within the community. No one was spouting off about guns, no one was screaming or shouting obscenities, all very reserved, a somewhat older crowd. There was no partisanship - there were democrats, republicans, and independents there, Obama was NOT the center of the event,and was not mentioned by the speakers. This was a small community and everything was organized by those in this community (no FOX network to be found). The whole point of these tea parties was to protest how our money is being spent. My great, great, etc., grandfather fought in the Revolutionary War, my great great grandfather fought in the Civil War for the north, I can assure you, Miss Garafolo, I absolutely know what the first Boston Tea Party was all about - do you? Do you have ANY idea of how much my relatives (and others) have sacrificed so that you, a rather dull appearing actor, can spout your ridiculous views with impunity? You have that right because of my and others' ancestors - not because of a bunch of actors that don't know how to do anything else but pretend to be other people. Who are you pretending to be with this diatribe? As far as being racist, I am Caucasian/American Indian, and I am hoping with all my heart that Michael Steele (an African American) soon runs for president - I will vote for him and I bet you won't - are you a closet racist, Ms. Garafolo? You have morphed yourself into such a joke that one can only laugh and wait for your next show of ignorance. I previously thought of you as a good actress - now you are only rather pathetic. Perhaps you should stick with your acting at least you know how that works. I have seen many here in this forum calling out "racist" at many others - it has been my experience that the proverbial pot is always calling out the proverbial kettle for a characteristic that the pot itself possesses - if you don't know what that means, how about "go look in the mirror to see the racist".

You are delusional. The pitiful pant-pissing losers were pathetic. 90% of them didn't have a clue where they were or why they were there.

#154 | Posted by axe


Uh, all were there to protest the spending. LOL

Were you there? I was. It was very clear.

LOL. Where did you read this? Or did Obermann tell you to say it. LOL

Can you name one billionaire?

Who is the head of the "Tea Party"?


LOL.


Again, where did you read this? Who told you this?

Ummm, not true. They gained fans, won awards, sold more albums and sold out shows wherever they went after those comments despite efforts from the highest levels to sink them by getting them banned from airplay and the like.

Not in this country, Spud...

No one tried to "sink" them. They lost their fan base here for saying something stupid! That's all.

Plain and simple, is was just another Republican Clusterfuck. The party of FAIL strikes out again.

Enjoy the next 12 years wandering in the wilderness, assholes.

I don't think you understand.

The Rich face being taxed out of existence. The next core group of tax payers are pissed off and are protesting the spending (Tea Parties).

Where do you get 12 years? Looks like we organized just after 12 weeks!

And the funniest part of your post is that you started it out with "You are delusional." LOL!!!

Axe, you and other "delusional" Libs are rambling on about bullshit you wish were happening. But, one thing is clear. The Tea Party groups are real and are growing. I'm part of one in Colorado Springs and these people are really fucking motivated. I would say on the order of the anti-Vietnam days. (Except we have all the money--youhave George Soros)


LOL!! Keep wandering, uh, wondering.


DETHSPUD: Reading your thread, I find your misinformed. You sound like your talking about Liberals.


By the way, I didn't realize you were such a big ASSHOLE!

Ozzie, Misinformed is an understatement.

These people are making shit up in desparation because of the success this week.

Why would Garafolo make such a fool of herself?

Her Agent is probably beating her with a big stick right now. This bitch will probably have no future.

Axe?

Oh Axe?


Who is the head of the Tea Party?

DOCDICKHEAD: Is it true that you and Garafolo were romantically linked when she was a man?

I feel sorry for libs! how the fuck do they get so stupid?

I don't care about the name-calling.

What bothers me is that so many, and this is true of both sides, are so blatantly partisan that they jump up and down and cheer when our governmnet spends trillions more, in 1 frickin' year, than it takes in.

Are you and many of your leftist ilk so ideologically blind as to the impending reality that will soon come to roost as a result of unsustainable accumulations of debt by our government?

How you people can be giddy over this is beyond me.

In fact, these people are going one step further. They are even talking about controlling they way that the rich give contributions. You will only be allowed to give money to government-approved charitable organizations.

Thank you Victoria, but I think Spud and other like-minded fools want you to believe something else. And all they are doing is making fools of themselves.

I too, attended a Party and noticed that the crowd were a crowd that you would see attending a University, except older, maybe 20 years later. You know, after a few successes, paying taxes, understanding "the way things work in the world", raising a family...

Garafolo probably never experienced a normal American success story, like most of the people who attended the Parties.

#180 | Posted by Eddie

The Dixie Chicks were within their rights to say anything they wanted. People are also within their rights to respond by not buying their products anymore. You put yourself out there, particularly when you're a public figure & you risk turning people off to that point. Consequences are a bitch.

That & the fact that their most recent work sucked out loud & was CLEARLY aimed at a more "progressive" audience and abandoned the bluegrass/country base that made them rich in the first place.

Hi Eddie
I think you're right. I keep hearing individuals saying strange things about these tea parties (like the type of person that attended, why they attended, etc.), I think these individuals are in denial but I'm not sure why. They can still prefer their political pick without liking what is happening. I love my teenager, but I sure don't like some of the behavior that I see! Why do these people not see what is happening to their future, their kids' future, and the future of the country? Perhaps it would be relevant to state that I am registered as an Independent and have no stake in any political party, simply am an EXTREMELY concerned citizen about our wonderful country. If there are those that aren't happy here in the USA, Mexico and Canada are simply a few hours away - perhaps you would prefer to live there? As my family has served this country since 1680, I would be happy to serve you by helping you with your move, if you were to make that choice. Au revoir.

well lets see

shes ugly
shes stupid
shes rude
shes not funny at all even with writers

and shes completely full of anger and shit

YEP...sounds just right for olberman.

the shame of it all is that socalled JOURNALIsTS including the closet queen whose name is REALY vanderbuilt said virtually the same thing on cnn.

AND FORGOT TO ADD

remember during the campaign when most of us on the
"RIGHT SIDE" of that campaign warned all of you about something

THAT ANY PROTEST OF OBAMA WOULD BE MET WITH CHARGES OF RACISM...

well VOILLA.....I sort of expected it from a poverty pimp but I guess its just as good from a hollywood whore.

HEy thats a pretty good line....

Seriously, is anyone surprised by her comments? Everyone knows that she's a militant, unattractive, man-hater. That automatically qualifies her to be an extreme left-wing hatemonger. But seriously... MSNBC? More conservatives saw her than Olberman fans, because there's only about 50 actual viewers of his bile.

Since she's so good at catagorizing large groups of people, I guess she wouldn't mind me catagorizing a bit too...

All Liberals simply think they're smarter than everyone else, they turn their snotty little noses down on anyone that doesn't listen to their swill, and they're insecure whiny little babies who were born angry, stupid, and believing that they're more important than anyone else. They're egotistical assholes.

why doesnt she give some of that back or give some to a charity?
double standard maybe

Good grief, I thought the description of Garafolo as "ugly" by a poster was just a bit of rhetorical hyperbole intended to demean her. But instead, I saw a video of her that proves that everyone excels at something, and she wins in the ugly category. Not only is she naturally repulsive, but she has tags on her that would disfigure a normal person's appearance. But then, maybe she was trying to use them to distract people from evaluating her. She's ugh ugly. And she augments the physical image with her presentation of herself. Garafolo is a "five ugh" ugly person.

C'mon. You gotta have 76 rusty trombones for the big Fourth of July parade in the village square!

What Liberal poster here on this board is willing to stand up for this Gerafalo? All I see here is pot shots about BUSH (typical Lib tactic) and what happened under his tenure.

Where is the outrage from the Left that this person has gone too far? How are WE ever going to come together (Lib and Conservatives) if we cannot even agree on something as basic as identifying this Gerafalo as a hateful racist?

Libs and Cons are both arguing that the other side cannot have it both ways, yes?

So, can we agree that this is hate speech? Can we agree that she is WRONG to say this?

If not, then clearly electing Obama will do nothing to unite this country, but in fact his election will divide it even more than it is now.

If we cannot even agree that this was WRONG, then folks this country is screwed. Neither side can have it both ways, at some point we are going to have to agree on SOMETHING as opposed to agreeing on NOTHING.

The Tea Parties were about Americans across both parties agreeing on SOMETHING; Our Government is not the solution, it is the problem. Spending $$ we do not have to get out of a situation where WE ALL SPENT $$ we did not have is not the answer. It will only get us deeper into debt and MORE dependent on foreign countries to finance our budget deficeits (which are skyrocketing).

Being careful about how, how much and WHERE Taxpayer $$ is being SPENT is something that is and should be in the best interests of ALL taxpaying Americans. It makes no difference what color the President is.


How are WE ever going to come together (Lib and Conservatives)


Said from the outside looking in.

< Snicker >


Right on, homey.

Er, no racial connotation intended.

I can only work a half-shift today as I have some other commitments. I think we should form a "right-wing conspirators association" and "demonstrate," organize and demand overtime for work on holidays, weekends, swing, or graveyard shifts. After all, just because we work in behalf of the conspiracy is no reason we should forfeit benefits.

Also, possibly we might get "special duty pay" for working under conditions where we are subjected to ridicule, obloquy, and contempt by the dullards, who delight in displaying how uncouth they are, and who oppose this broad-based right wing conspiracy.

Well, here's to posting "unclean" thoughts that do not abide by taboos some of the folks try to use to prevent critiques of their leftist positions, which they want the State to sanctify as a religious belief.

Keep some of the tenets in mind. The primary commandment nowadays, however, is that minorities have a license to perform any act or take any position, and are exempt from criticism because they have an accumulated bag full of grievances that provide them with exemptions. Also, any action by a minority is evaluated on another standard as they are due extra credit for their perception of prior grievances limiting their true performance abilities.

Well, I have another conspiracy meeting to attend today. We now often meet in groups of three to escape detection and oversight by "Big Sister," who is trying to infiltrate our organizations. They are stymied in some respects as they were so opposed to the military and avoided military service so that they do not have operatives able to penetrate veterans' groups.

Keep it to yourself, but we met at a Boy Scout activity last night. They avoid these activities because of the exclusion of known homosexuals from participation in positions where they can sexually exploit young males. We have an American Legion meeting today.

I understand that Boy Scouts and service in the U.S. military are "unpatriotic" now since Newspeak identifies "patriotism" as recognizing the entire world as your "patria."

Wait. It's Saturday. I need to perform a sacrament in behalf of the conspiracy. Breaking open the six-pack Sir, and with due reverence, I shall consume the same.

What is it called when you continue to believe something that has been shown to not be true?


Ah yes, self-delusional...

Buy up assets now. With the coming inflation, no one will require a bailout. In terms of dollars owed, you may pay off your mortgage with a printed piece of paper called a Federal Reserve Note with big numbers on it. Why, it will be so worthless that you can give the banker a million dollar note to pay off a $300,000 mortgage on your humble home, and tell him to keep the change as it wouldn't buy anything and will have no value except to pay off antecedent debts.

Historical U.S. Debt Outstanding - Annual 1946 - 2008

Another example of an impoverished mind of a lefty at work.

Did Ms Ugly choose to work in such a confrontational atmosphere, or was she dragged kicking and screaming into the clubs where she would interact with hostile drunks? Did Ms Ugly have any other alternatives by which she could earn money to sustain herself?

What was your intent in focusing on Ms Ugly's life options and choices? Are you a "right wing conspirator" in mufti acting as a provocateur and to condemn Ms Ugly for what she is while posing as someone defending her?

The Reich Wing of the GOP has nothing.

Are the "teabaggers," the disgruntled citizenry, the GOP, or a more comprehensive group with another agenda, retrieving control of governmental apparatus from the totalitarians who have seized it? People did not respond instinctively to oppose Hitler in Europe, but Americans with their heritage of freedom have identified the slicksters who are trying to destroy our heritage of freedom and subject everyone to their totalitarian ideology and control by those authoritarians.
They have no one save for seriously dangerous crazy people in their corner.

In your dreams. Using the "bandwagon" technique to discourage opposition to destruction of American values.
Speaking as a harmless 60+ former hippie, the Department of Homeland Security SHOULD be watching them!

Here someone with the acknowledged "hippie" freeloader mentality, who as an idler has been supported by the work of provident people for at least a portion of his life, enabled by a degenerate society that provides such support, calls for totalitarian oversight of others. Is he a true "hippie," who rejects control, or a hypocritical liar, who never had the state of mind of a "hippie," but was just a bum looking for some ideological cover to provide a euphemistic description for his life choice of lazy bum exploiting the work of other people to maintain himself. Ods bodkins.

"Johnson" speaks of American Legion and Boy Scouts and cracking a ritual sixpack. I presume that on Sunday he (?) will "worship" in a temple of his (?) choice, receive some kind of absolution and on Monday feel clean as he (?) launches another week of hating his (?) betters. herm

Herm,
Did you receive a lot of wedgies from right-wing/religious kids back in school? You write like one might expect a person with a permanently sore crack to write.

To everyone: the headline is about Garofalo. Not a name associated with fairness or accuracy in commenting on politics. She wasn't even that good as a standup and as for her movie career - well it speaks for itself (loud flushing sound)

We Americans do not have "betters," herm.

Also, I don't attend church every Sunday any more except when I'm visiting some of my children, one of whom works for the church and who with his wife, is considering missionary work, which provides faith and hope to converts.

By the way, some of us, those who believe in salvation by faith, don't require absolution, herm.

Also herm, since you are such a sanctimonious fellow, if I did require "absolution" from any human being, what in your opinion would be the acts or thoughts for which I required it? Unlike your buddy lefty, Jimmy Carter, I think that lust is a human feeling and oftentimes a precursor to "love," one of God's gifts to humanity.

Also herm, just whom have I expressed "hatred" for. It seems to be the leftists, who are convulsed by hate. I'm not. But it seems that you folks are preoccupied with "evil," despite your claims to be secularists, and you condemn evil as you see it with a religious fervor, and damnation. You lefties are the modern day Inquisitioners with your sacrosanct beliefs and desire to punish transgressors.

You folks declare your need to silence and punish others, who disagree with you, and resort to rather uncouth descriptions of those who disagree with you. Somehow people who have another model of "How Things Work," that threaten your stereotypical beliefs, evoke much anxiety for you.

You realy are a dumb shit. It wasn't about obama, it's about a very big and expanding government.

to protest against obama is not racism racism is a get out of jail card for him to use to make his opposition tiptoe in with their complaints--his supporters should remember that people will soon get tired of their whinin

note to janeane - better to be a teabagger than a three bagger, eh?

Cyclone42 you are so right

Jeff J is disillusion and must live in a bunker in Rural "Kaantukeey..." NRA or Die, right Jeff? I think his last roommate was Timothy MacVey (sp?) or worse... Does he really believe his own BS? Just because he has a relative grasp of historical events, he thinks he can re-write history. He thinks the EVIL Bush admin walks on water and will not give our new President a chance. Blatant racism! He must come from a shallow gene pool.

He tries to come off as a moderate, but I think in his perfect world, he'd be t-bagging little Dickie Chaney! Sour Grapes - right Jeff J? That's what happens when you add teabaggs to grapes.

You lost. Get over it!

I love guys like you Cyclone is against Obama so he must be a racist. People like you are so weak-minded. I wonder what he is going to say when poor inner city Obama supporters start turning on him as inflation gores out of control

Lefties always seem to know what's going on in everyone else's mind. These people weren't protesting high taxes and reckless spending from both parties, like they said they were. Subconsciously, only beknownst to Jeneane Garafalo, these people were protesting the fact that a black person is president. Good thing Americans have liberals around to tell them how they really feel - we'd be lost without you.

I love it when our "Johnsons" sputter in outrage. "Those who believe in salvation by faith, don't require absolution" is surely one of 2009'se best sputters. Exuding smugness, guaranteed a cloud and harp on his/her own by faith (faith is the ability to believe what common sense tells you cannot possibly be true) and "American's don't have betters" is the final, ultimate Johnson conceit. herm

Well herm, I do need to correct myself. Most Americans don't have "betters." Apparently some folks such as you, know their place in the pecking order and are in the thrall of diversity. You recognize some unwashed Bushman with an IQ of an imbecile and living in primitive conditions, as your equal or superior. In the pursuit of "equality" and worship of "diversity," you also acknowledge that some unwashed Islamic who blows up people and himself, or kills his daughter because she wears a miniskirt is your "equal." But that's you, herm. It's not most Americans. We believe in American exceptionalism.

Well, the racist lbs have succeeded in diverting attention from Obama's policies by raising their pennant over their HQ. Talk racism. What racism is redefined as in the lib lexicon is unwillingness to accept bad and destructive policies, and opposition to totalitarian rule with description of dissenting political positions as "terrorism," and also directing attention away from the domestic absolutism sought by the left, and the submission of American interests to those of others, including our titular leader paying obeisance to an Islamic sovereign.

There only people whom the lefties dare oppose is the domestic right because they think that it represents no violent threat as it accepts civilized restraints within a society. But these lefties cower before any threats from foreigners, and the noisier the foreigners are, the more the left recoils and advocates that these antagonistic foreigners not be agitated because then, they would "really get mad," and possibly increase their logistical ability to harm us. Cringe and defer, lefties. Cowardice becomes you.

In fact, these people are going one step further. They are even talking about controlling they way that the rich give contributions. You will only be allowed to give money to government-approved charitable organizations.


I read about that somewhere... I really feel bad for charities, they are going to get fucked hard. If you try to tell rich people what charity they have to give to they simply will not give. all this lib shit will eventually come crashing down hard...

It's human nature to be greedy and human nature to want to compete. This is why capitalism works. no matter how much the libs would like to change this, they can't!

Obama sold you on Hope and Change...


"I use emotion for the many and reserve reason for the few. " Adolf Hitler

The Obama entire campaign was based on emotion rather than reason.



"From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs. " Karl Marx

I think I saw this one on an Obama bumper sticker

"One man with a gun can control 100 without one. " Vladimir Lenin

Obama is going to attempt by either legislation or Treaty to radically go after the 2nd Amendment.

"The goal of socialism is communism." Vladimir Lenin

If you believe in Socialism then you are also wanting Communism.

"The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation." Vladimir Lenin


"The best way to destroy the capitalist system is to debauch the currency" Vladimir Lenin.

Run up national debt and destroy the currency. Obama is doing this. He just had the Fed print over a TRILLION DOLLARS.


"I think when you spread the wealth around it's good for everybody" Obama

So why did these rednecks protest against the Black President over taxes owed under the Bush administration?

I didn't see Bush's picture on any of those fucking signs.

#32 | Posted by Manypaths

You hit the nail on the head there Manypaths, the Teabaggers are simply the Bush lovers who don't know what to do with themselves, now that they cannot simply sit back and watch their enemies being utterly crushed by the media and various powers-that-be.

Now that the shoe is on the other foot, let the whining commence. Oh, the hypocrisy of our adversaries, and after all we did for them while we held the reins for 8 years!

Ah for the good old days when a TV diatribe like Janine's could be turned into a national issue (a la MoveOn/Petraeus)!

The right-wing bloggers, Fox News et al. seem rather perplexed as to why the nation has not joined in their cause and risen up in anger against Obama. I'll give you a hint- if somebody paralyzed your child in an auto accident, and then called you up to complain about how their insurance company was dicking them around, how much sympathy would you have? This is about the state of regard that most (i.e. numerical majority) Americans have for the old-line "real American" message nowadays, given the events of the last 8 years.

Bush's face and name are absent from the signs at these rallies it's true, but his people and message are there as if nothing ever happened.

Sarah Palin, Joe The Plumber, teabaggers, how many more media gimmicks are going to blow up in their faces before they get the message that maybe it's time to change tactics? Not that there seem to be ANY tactics at all right about now, unless you count "let's try yet another con job, and maybe everyone will fall for it this time" as an actual strategy.

The racism accusations will not go away no matter how much the bloggers and Lou Dobbs whine that it not be so, for the simple reason that white people are the only demographic that the hard right has a corner on anymore. Small businessmen? Not the ones I know.

Yes it's truly terrible that people like Janeane G. can point to a few nuts in the crowd with signs and say the teabaggers are all racists. However I don't recall too many freedom-loving right-wing commentators or bloggers making the analagous point in defence of the anti-war protesters in early 2003, for example. Of course, there were no thoughtful or educated people in those protests, only leftie nutbars, or so you would have thought from watching most TV stations.

I'd also like to applaud the newfound gay sensitivity, suddenly and unexpectedly evident among so many r-w bloggers. Thank you for pointing out the callousness in people like Oberlmann and Garafolo - the nerve of them, making gay jokes! This must be the reason for the massive outpouring of condemnation against MSNBC eminating from numerous national gay and lesbian organizations. No you say? Sorry I underestimated their reluctance to even appear to align themselves with a demographic who would like to kill them.

BTW, tea bags were not invented until the early 1900's and so the tea thrown into Boston Harbor in 1773 was simply bulk tea in crates, no bags in sight. And so not only are tea bags as symbology a complete vulgar joke, it's historically inaccurate as well. Get used to it folks, it's Dukakis in the army tank, except in this version imagine he's got a cock in his mouth as well. It's an unmitigated, embarassing diaster, people, and firing blanks at the mouldering corpse of Janeane Garafolo or anyone else is not going to change that.

Alright, go on now, move on to the next conjob or else change tactics -- end of lesson!

Hey shitbags.... Read my posts and see what the tea party was all about. It's about Government you douche bags. Government run by ANY party you nit wits.

The anger is not against OBAMA, it is against the Congress of the U.S. that continually spends more and more of OUR $$ each year, $$ we DO NOT HAVE. So, we borrow it. More and more borrowing over all the years. How do are we going to pay for all the borrowing?? Taxes!

So, the outrage is that in this last year we have gone on a record binge of spending and borrowing (assuming the Chinese and other foreigners actually buy our debt). RECORD SPENDING AND RECORD BORROWING. Considering the past administrations wasteful spending, the fact that we are setting RECORDS should not go unnoticed. It hasn't, people went to TEA PARTIES to voice their DISSENT.

But no, people want to make this out that it is against Obama. Why? Obama does not write laws, he signs them. Congress writes laws and Congress appropriates money and Congress is doing a sh##tty job considering they are spending our $$ for a "stimulus" package and a "financial bailout", problems that are ALL CAUSED BY GOVERNMENT IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Funny thing is they aren't even READING the laws that Obama is signing.

Please, Liberals, tell us all that the spending will be OK. Tell us and assure us that ALL working Americans will not pay higher taxes in the future to fund ALL the programs and entitlement programs for illegal immigrants to baby boomers. War? Oh we still got war! Sending more troops over there and that costs $$ The higher tax argument is not about just Income tax and it is not about this year or the next, but ALL the years or of children when they grow up and THEIR children. When we borrow $$ to fund things for today we are STEALING THE LABOR OF FUTURE GENERATIONS WHO WILL HAVE TO WORK TO PAY OFF THAT DEBT. The money will be long gone and spent by then, but THEY WILL OWE IT.

Can this be any more simple? Liberals, is it really that hard to understand what the tea parties are all about? The FUTURE GENERATIONS HAVE NO REPRESENTATION because they are either too young to vote or have not been born yet!!

Perhaps we could abort all future children and solve the problem that way and make the Tea parties moot? Perhaps, although the Chinese will not like that since SOMEONE is going to have to WORK to produce SOMETHING so they can be TAXED by the Government and pay back the loans taken out years ago from them. Those future Americans will be black, white, yellow, brown, etc. Those Americans will be straight and gay, they will be young and older, they will be Liberals, independents, environmentalists and conservatives. THEY WILL BE AMERICANS since the Chinese don't give a F$%$ WHO pays them back the money they loaned us just so long as it IS paid back.

Get it now?? Our Government is Destroying the future of this country and has been for some time. Only recently have we taking the LARGEST steps in the wrong direction in terms of spending, bailouts and BORROWING and people are ALARMED. We are taking BiG, Giagantic, steps in the WRONG direction in the last 9-10 months under Bush, and now under Obama with the bailouts that don't work and the massive spending that no one has read. This is on TOP OF the largest ever Budget Proposal EVER in the History of the U.S. $3.55 TRILLION.

Where does this stop? That's what the Tea Parties were all about.

Can this be any more simple? Liberals, is it really that hard to understand what the tea parties are all about?

Yeah, It's easy to understand. You hate liberals and blame them for all ills. The party you elected to control government starting with Reagan and concluding with total control under GW Bush and its insane ideology wrecked the nation, and now we have to pay for it. You are a parrot. You lost an election and you are now throwing a tantrum over your own shit on the carpet, paralyzed with tears as others clean it up for you.

Remarkably Aelxandrite, you have lost. Do you think that you will be exempt from the consequences of the runaway inflation that will ensue due to the printing of so much paper? Get it? Lots of paper dollars. No significant change in the supply of goods and services, and things become more expensive.

Then add the transfer of control of productive capacity to persons incapable of utilizing them providently, and voila, we emulate Zimbabwe with its pervasive starvation, breakdown of the healthcare system, etc.

This prospect must please you since I sense an attempt to communicate your exultation concerning the state of affairs.

Party time for Alexandrite.

I don't understand what is racist about watermelon and chicken. There is a fried chciken restaurant on my corner owned by arabs. Over 90% of the customers are black at night. Yes they also have watermelon there during the Summer. I sometimes eat luch there and yes I get the watermelon too.

Dobbs On Garofalo Tea Party Comments: "She's Just Nasty Nasty Piece of Business"

Jeff Poor
Business & Media Institute
April 18, 2009

It was Fox News against the world about tea party coverage, but CNN "Lou Dobbs Tonight" host showed he's just as disgusted with some of the coverage as many conservatives are.

Dobbs, on his April 17 radio program, criticized comedian Janeane Garofalo on his April 17 radio show for her vitriolic attack against the April 15 tea party protests.

WAAAAAAH, we lost!

#242 | Posted by Alexandrite


if you mean "lost" as in you are lost to the meaning of the Tea Party, yes.

But, Alex, the Tea Parties were a huge success and made fools out of a few elitest Liberals, a bonus.

But Alex, if you want to push the issue and join the elitest Liberal idiots, then that's your choice. You just look as foolish as they do.

If you read through this thread, it's very clear that the Left were hysterical over this.

Yeah, It's easy to understand. You hate liberals and blame them for all ills.
#240 | Posted by BetelG


If you attended any of the Tea Parties, you would have quickly understood this is not at all true. Instead you would discover that the Tea Parties were a protest of spending which rails against 95% of Congress and 100% of both the Obama and Bush Administrations. Obama gets focus only because he's the guy currently in charge.

In fact, the liberals, as you say it, are in charge and are, indeed, responsible for the current spending.


So why did these rednecks protest against the Black President over taxes owed under the Bush administration?


I didn't see Bush's picture on any of those fucking signs.

I understand why you're still a little confused about the episode---it really was quite a long and exhausting evening---so let me clear things up for you, 'kay? She was (and remains) a woman. You were a girl then, I believe for the first (or was it the second?) time. It was a threesome and we were all cavorting in a cabana. And the moon---oh, gawd, the moon!---was so, so bright on that tropical night. I swear I could hear the waves lapping against the shore, even with all the moaning and groaning. Thanks for the memories, Oozie.

Don't worry about Manypaths, afkabl2. He's a White Apologist.

If he would only find out the truth about Tea Parties, he would be really embarrassed that he even participated in this discussion.

Garofalo is a pathetic and angry woman....

and she is a spokesman for the democrat party in addition

and if she isnt, then someone show me where a democrat has come out and denounced her venimous bullshit attack.
I mean if that applies to rush then surely our 'fair and balanced' bloggers here as well as the media will be doing that..RIGHT????????

Where is Spud?

Embarrassed?

I saw people coming out of the woodwork on this thread telling you how wrong you are, there, Spud.

Good.

After reading through the thread, I went back and watched the clip from the Obermann segment on the article. I got quite a chuckle watching this idiot make a fool of himself, then Garapolo doing the same.

THEN! Spud posting it. Classic!

I saw people coming out of the woodwork on this thread telling you how wrong you are, there, Spud.

Then you should have no problem quoting Spud verbatim and explaining exactly where Spud is wrong.

Dobbs, on his April 17 radio program, criticized comedian Janeane Garofalo on his April 17 radio show for her vitriolic attack against the April 15 tea party protests.

As a guy who's accused of being a racist more often than most anyone else on air of course Dobbs is gonna slam JG fer her take on the racism prevelant at the tea parties.

By now that's kind of a knee jerk repsonse with him.

Be Well.

2003 Janeane Garofalo on the subject of dissent:

.....There has been so many inappropriate responses to dissent which is the most patriot thing you can do and the First Amendment guarantees everyone's right to speak out.

So glad she is on the left.

So glad she is on the left.

Where in Janeanne's rant decrying the racist element at these teabagging events does she state that the people involved don't have a right to dissent?

Nowhere?

Kk, Spud has an idear...

/Not trying to stifle yer free speech there, btw, just trying to piss you off cos it's fun fer Spud.

Be Well.

Haven't commented since the election, but here's my take: The only racists are those who voted for Obama. The fact is the only reason they voted for him was: 1: he wasn't Bush 2: he's not a republican. Considering that Bush wasn't running and the junior senator that was has no real track record,(the junior part is the clue), that leaves the obvious. Sooooooooo, if you vote for someone because of their skin color...Bingo you win.

The only racists are those who voted for Obama

Spud thinks race entered into the equation far more often on the right than it did on the left.

Which is to say that there were more republicans who voted against Obama (despite being less than enamoured with McLame) purely because he's black than there were democrats who voted for Obama purely because he's black.

No way of proving it, of course, but the history of racism within the GOP plus a few other indicators like increased death threats against this POTUS laden with racist imagery and an uptick in extremist rightwing element in general would seem to bear Spud's impression out.

The Dems are unquestionably the more tolerant and inclusive of the two parties.

Be Well.

She is an angry lesbian nothing more .
I don't know why anyone listens to her. She is irrelevant. She has failed at becoming a successful actress. She has failed at becoming a radio host. Her life is marked by failures and I guess she doesn't like what is in the mirror. She would rather blame the vast right wing conspiracy

The Dems are unquestionably the more tolerant and inclusive of the two parties

Yes they must be. That is why Democrat leaders such as Al Gore Sr. tried to stop the civil right act.

The Democratic Party will alway be the party that found it appropriate to appoint a former KKK member to their Senate leadership

If it's purely coincidence, then why even bother to put watermelons and fried-chicken on the protest signs?

For the same reason that they promote beer on St. Patrick's Day. Are Irish-Americans the only people that drink beer. If that was true it would make little sense for Anheiser-Busch(50% of the beer market in America) to be located in St. Louis. NY/NJ or Chicago would be more appropriate.

Using your logic any promotion that uses Irish heritage to promote beer is an ethnic slur.

Yes they must be. That is why Democrat leaders such as Al Gore Sr. tried to stop the civil right act.

LBJ was the Democratic POTUS who made civil rights for minorities in America a reality. He did so by spending the political capitol that was incurred by the death of JFK. He knew that by doing so he was sinking the chances of the Dems in the south fer at least a generation. He also knew it was the right thing to do so he did it. Many arms had to be twisted by LBJ in order to make the Civil Rights Act become reality. Some of them, as you note, were Dem arms. Most of them were Rethugs. Even a cursory understanding of race and politics in America will tell you why when an Rtard claims racism is the exclusive province of the left, people with more than half a brain in their head start pointing and laughing at the moron who sed it.

The Democratic Party will alway be the party that found it appropriate to appoint a former KKK member to their Senate leadership

Key word in that sentence being "former".

Byrd spent decades making up for his racist past but Rethugs with a talking point are like a terrier with a rat in it's mouth.

They just keep shaking it long after it's dead.

No sorry son the key word in KKK. The DNC found is appropriate in the decade following the civil right movement to elect a leader that had a racist past. Out of all the other elected Democrats serving in the Senate they found a guy that used to belong to a hate group more qualified

"they found a guy that used to belong to a hate group more qualified"

Oh just shut the fuck up. Nobody gives a fuck, except partisan hacks, what party [republican] a former KKK member [david duke] belongs to.

With help from the Urban Dictionary, I was able to add another "Music Man" reference for the holiday with "beans and franks"...

Heres the deal on Racism folks.....


Every human being is Racist.

That's a fact.

Why is that a fact?

Because Racism is quantifiable.

Heres an example... Lets rate Hitler 100 and the old white lady that clutches her purse more tightly when two young black males get on is a 10. Everyone of us falls somewhere in between that.

Doesnt anyone else graps that?

You really ought to check out the real world and try living a real life, nully. It's infinitely more fulfilling and gratifying that trolling complete strangers like me. You might be surprised.

Anyway, my dirty underwear is more interesting that trolls. Have fun with the troll thing, and in all seriousness -- I'm glad it works out for you. Everyone deserves some sort of fulfillment in their lives, even though what you choose (trolling me) would not do much in the arena of intellectual stimulation for me as it does you.

Wow, what was that, about 500 words I baited Goattroll into writing? LOL

Meh, not a particularily effective troll attempt, Goat.

Trite, dull, unimaginative and overly repetitive.

Spud gives it a 2/10.

Thanx fer contributing to the Spudthread tho.

Always appreciated! ^_^

Be Well.

Spud gives it a 2/10

Oh, my. Excuse me while I bawl my eyes out. The grandiose opinion of the phoniest person on any blog I've ever seen means sooo much to me.

Thanx fer contributing to the Spudthread tho.

Always appreciated! ^_^

I don't understand the reasons, but I do understand that you, tosser, and da bOoB get some sort of cheap thrill about high thread counts on your threads, so if I am able to contribute to your banal and meaningless lives in such an effortless manner, I am more than happy to do so. I believe everyone deserves happiness, no matter how trite your version of it may appear to me.

And I hope this post adds a simple-minded thrill as well.

You are most welcome, deth.

Wow, what was that, about 500 words I baited Goattroll into writing

Honestly -- is your life so meaningless and your obsession with me so strong that you now count the words in my posts? LOL

Love you too, nully baby -- but not that much!

Seriously, though -- I want to hear the story again how I am the troll even though it is always you coming after me first. As I said, as far as self-delusionary tales go, you have the best ones!

Another 100 words or so from Goatman. LOL. This post ought to be good for another 100 or so. LOL.

Another 100 words or so from Goatman.

I just want to hear the 50 or so from you where you explain that I am the troll even though you always come after me first. Or are you on the anti-delusional meds tonight?

(watch this obsessive freak count the words again) LOL

You need a life, null.

If you can't relate that funny story again, I'll miss it, but I'm sure once the meds wear off, I'll have it again. So have you last word -- you can't live without it. LOL

(watch)

"So have you last word "

Goatman giving someone else the last word? LOL. That'll probably prevoke another few hundred words.

Nullifidian, Those quotes are all real. ty google and look it up.
