Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Saturday, January 09, 2010

Political cartoonist Mark Fiore wrote on his blog that he's receiving death threats over a 90-second animated film he created that teaches viewers "how to speak Tea Bag." Comparing his predicament to that of Danish cartoonist Kurt Westergaard, Fiore writes, "Muslim extremist, meet Tea Party extremist. Tea Party extremist, meet Muslim extremist. ... Here's to good discussion even if we don't agree. Now please don't kill me."

Righties and islamic jihadists are only one baby jeebus apart as far as their philosphies are concerned.

What a miserable group of folks.

Do you realize how many death threats Juan Williams received for publishing a book about African Americans along Cosby lines?

You people are really stupid if you believe that these death threats are coming from anything other than an extreme fringe minority.

Yeah.

What Jeff said.

Eric Rudolph

An award-winning California-based political cartoonist says he is receiving death threats over a 90-second animated film he created that teaches viewers "how to speak Tea Bag."

No. It teaches viewers how to be an asswipe.

"Muslim extremist, meet Tea Party extremist. Tea Party extremist, meet Muslim extremist," Fiore writes on his blog.

This guy needs a good ass kicking.

Muslim extremist, meet Tea Party extremist. Tea Party extremist, meet Muslim extremist

The Muslim extremist doesn't weigh 400 pounds like his teabagging counterpart.

What a pussy. He makes a cartoon that insults someone and then whines about the threats that follow.

We need a follow up cartoon. "How to speak like a bitch"

What are they gonna do: throw his ink in a harbor?

Why can't he be more like reinheitsgebot, and STFU with a mouth full of salty nuts?

Wissy opens wide for his hero.

Simple comeback from a simple oriface.

It's not even than funny of a cartoon.

So the hate filled cartoonist claims someone is making death threats to him? Prove it. If he can't, the tea baggers should break his fingers.

Newsworthy. So accurate. If only the Christians would start reconstructing Palestine and face the Zionists..

Lefties and islamic jihadists share the same hate for everyone that doesn't believe the same things they believe.

I've been saying it. Fundo's are one step away from strapping the jihadbomb.

Clearly this is a fringer and I will also like to add that most people in the teaparty movement aren't violent like this just like most muslims aren't jihadists.

but I'm sure ed koch thinks that all teabaggers want to kill everyone not into teaparties.

but I'm sure ed koch thinks that all teabaggers want to kill everyone not into teaparties

There must be... three, four, maybe even five billion of them!

Fringe. Yeah. That's the ticket. Fringe.

These nutters are completely predictable and this whole 'tea party' nonsense can only result in two possible outcomes:

1. They will put their fringe candidates in the GOP primaries and vote for un-electable wingnuts and sabotage the Party of Fail's hopes of winning back a few House and Senate seats.

2. The Party of Fail will totally ignore them knowing that none of them would ever vote Democratic and put their corporate puppets on the ballot over the objections of the teabaggers.

I think #2 is the most likely to happen in most places although in the teabag belt, several Democrats will win red districts for he first time in 40 years thanks to the teabaggers splitting the Fail vote.

"You people are really stupid if you believe that these death threats are coming from anything other than an extreme fringe minority."

NO argument but why are they welcomed into the Tea Party movement? Why aren't they repudiated?

"What a pussy. He makes a cartoon that insults someone and then whines about the threats that follow.

CockToy, did you get your little feelings hurt as a teabagger? Get so upset you caught a yeast infection? Get a life loser

Danni,

They are. You might as well ask why islamic suicide bombers aren't repudiated by mainstream islam. They are but thats not news so you don't hear about it.

Hmmmmmm ........ no traffic for my Web site?

Why, I spent 3 whole hours creating an uncreative, vulgar cartoon chock full of predictable insults.

And still, nobody gives a flying fuck?

Well, I do have the light bill to pay. Better claim I'm the victim of something ...

Hey Vern, Doesn't your ladyboy Dimho teabag?

The bad part of that deal is it was public funded.

It never ceases to amaze me how many Americans cannot understand that being offended by others' exercises of free speech is the price they have to pay for their own.

If you want free speech for yourself and not others, you should move to Iran and become a mullah.

How To Speak Neo-Marxist:

Puke Kool Aid all over the net by making asinine cartoons to get your points across.

They think you're all simpletons and they know you watch comedy central for your news. Notice how the cartoon singled out one guy. They are afraid of the sheer number of people protesting. They are mad that they didn't drum up this type of public reaction to their cut 'n run strategy in Iraq.

We need a follow up cartoon. "How to speak like a bitch"

I love how most on the left talk about free speech but say something bad about Obama and they go crazy.

I think the cartoonist is an idiot. People are under the assumption that they can say and do anything under the title of free speech. The problem is that people's emotions don't follow the law of free speech.

There might be free speech but if anyone would stand in my face and insult myself or my family, they will receive a beat down. The assault charge would be worth it and I don't think the insult would happen again.

There is a huge lack of respect in the country.

Where's the "how to speak like a whiny Liberal" cartoon? Will it be just as unfunny as his other crap? There are nuts and rude people everywhere, but surely you Libs don't want to start keeping score, do you?

And I have to say that I don't find this cartoon all that funny, about up there with that robot Media Matters thing.

There's no hate like left wing hate!
Except for right wing hate.

I KEEEL YOU!!! I BLOW UP YOUR FEDERAL BUILDINGS!! I SHOOOT YOUR WIMMENS DOCTORS AND KEEL YOUR CARTOONISTS!!!

crazy farkin' biatches.

I like the DISEMBOWEL-O-TRON -- reminds me of Timothy Geitner.

excerpt from the author's blog:

Another aspect of the rabid criticism is that NPR, an organization living high on the hog thanks to the mother's milk of government (animal metaphors, all around!), should not be funding my anti-Tea Bagger cartoons with taxpayer money. But alas, NPR does most of its villainous work using sponsorship, pledge drives and good ol' fashioned Capitalism! According to the NPR site, a tiny one to two percent of their yearly funding comes via grants from crazed Socialist organizations like the National Science Foundation, CPB and (gasp!) the NEA.

That's one to two percent too many.

You people are really stupid if you believe that these death threats are coming from anything other than an extreme fringe minority.

Well DUHHHH! "An extreme fringe Minority"? REALLY???

No shit Sherlock-where'd ya hide yer Squad Car?

OMG...say the Tools of the NWO...Some of the Sheeple arn't buying the lies...They may be waking up to reality..Quick, turn up the diversion media...Throw Tiger Woods,Octomom,etc out there...they are still waking up...

Quick! To the Manual...What's the next step! RIDICULE THEM...Equate their movement to a "sexual act"...

To quote Alinsky:"Any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future"

Alinsky's Plan is falling back on them...

Where's the "how to speak like a whiny Liberal" cartoon? #35 | Posted by Dinsey

Oh you mean the one that goes like this:

"Why can't we feed all people? Why can't we shelter all people? Why can't we have health care for all people. Why can't people marry those they want to? Why can't we preserve our natural heritage? Reduce pollution that's killing our kids? Clean our water? Fix our streets? Make a nation proud of itself because it does the Jesus thing and helps us all take care of one another...?"

That Whining?

Shit, you Conservative Morons sure have a lot of fucked-up nerve. But I suppose it's the law of Unintended Cognitive Dissonance.

I love how most on the left talk about free speech but say something bad about Obama and they go crazy.

You mean you love how liberals use their free speech?

Spud thinks that's nice.

Someone linked to that one the other day.

Ask one of the other rtards maybe they'll relink it for you.

Same basic premise as this cartoon only the liberal was made to look absurd with a monotonal computer voice rather than the moron voice this bit used.

Be Well.

Ah, found it.

There's yer RW equivilant of this toon only, ...you know ...w/o any accompanying death threats.

No need to thank, Spud.

I just tend to think of them as "hatebaggers" at this point. Not the America I remember from not so long ago.

Shout out to Spud!!! The pride of taterkind.

If you want food go to the store and BUY IT!
If you want to have a roof over your head PAY YOUR RENT!
If you want healthcare, BUY IT!
IF a man wants to get married go FIND A WOMAN!
IF you want to reduce pollution tell the poor to stop smoking!
If you want clean water BUY IT IN THE STORE!
If you want to fix your streets, GRAB A SHOVEL!

JESUS didn't ask the Pharisees to care for him. He provided for others. If you want to do the Jesus thing go buy your neighbor health insurance. Dont ask your neighbor to buy yours

Wow; that is so Jihadist of you. I wonder what would happen if somebody made a cartoon embellishing upon the absolute fairytale nature of Christianity? Or, is God a bit less important to you than political affiliation? Party above God? That's a new level of political commitment, and just a tiny bit scary...

I guess you would understand of you would have read his post. I assume people here like to modify user's logon names in an attempt to either make them look stupid or mock them. He inserted a change into my logon name in an attempt to label me. But he ever told called me a teabagger to my face, I would show him how I felt about it without words or posting in this thread. I never claimed to be part of that group.

Some people do think they are internet superhero's. They brag about their freedom of speech while they tear other people down. Like I said earlier, It's lack of respect but it's not to late to teach some people that. You can attack my intelligence or lack of knowledge about a particular subject but don't go beyond that.

That was was rather funny. (and true)

***"We need a follow up cartoon. "How to speak like a bitch""

Uh, the TeaBaggers already have that mastered; from the rhetoric of fear, to the false tears of disdain, from the complete over exaggeration of anything to make a point, to the incessant whining anytime anybody says anything negative (regardless of how accurate) about them. The TeaBaggers have got the "speak like a bitch" down pat...

I wasn't insulting you, but there is no accounting for inferences...

I was just commenting on your defensive/offensive internet posturing; It really doesn't come across as intimidating as one might think. Personally I find it amusing, while others find it annoying and will poke fun just to get a rise out of you, because (if you hadn't noticed) it is the "internet", and it is "anonymous", and short of a court order you are never going to see any of these people "face to face". So, to get into a huff about it; to the point of making threats (even defensive ones) only serves to advertise your ignorance, as well as to tempt the more productively challenged here to engage you on that level...

IF you want to reduce pollution tell the poor to stop smoking!

Yes, because cigarettes are the only source of pollution, and only when smoked by poor people.

My, you're stupid.

Id threaten to kill him because his cartoon is stupid and not even close to being funny. It certainly doesnt insult anyone.

Hey Vern, Doesn't your ladyboy Dimho teabag?

Damn, that was funny. Not the video at the top of this thread, but T_man getting his nose out of joint because Spud called him T(bag)man made it worth the price of admission.

***"Your anus is making sounds similar to speech. Or is that you talking? It's hard for me to tell because I usually hear you squealing like a pig. I'm finished with you and your anus. You are dismissed."

I was actually writing, thus no sounds made. See "this" is "TEXT" not voice...

Sorry, different "anus". I know; they all probably look the same from behind your puckered lips...

You are truly an idiot if that is the best response you can come up with. I called you a hypocrite, and now I call you an idiot. And, your best response is insinuating that my anus talks, that we have engaged in anal sex and that I am here at your behest...

So, for the record: my ass is speechless, I don't fuck men (or even poor facsimiles of men; as in your case) and I come and go at my own leisure and am at the beck-and-call of no human entity...

You got nothing...

I'm finished with you and your anus. You are dismissed.

FYI, I am totally using that line on the next girl I hook up with.

I personaly didn't care for the cartoon. It wasn't funny. I did mind the fact that it was partially funded using my tax dollars. Oh 2% is all. Read this

en.wikipedia.org
According to the 2005 financial statement, NPR makes just over half of its money from the fees and dues it charges member stations to receive programming, although some of this money originated at the CPB itself, in the form of pass-through grants to member stations.[12] About 2% of NPR's funding comes from bidding on government grants and programs, chiefly the Corporation for Public Broadcasting; the remainder comes from member station dues, foundation grants, and corporate underwriting. Typically, NPR member stations raise funds through on-air pledge drives, corporate underwriting, and grants from state governments, universities, and the CPB itself.

and who is the CPB (Corporation for Public Broadcasting) and how many times it is listed for funing of NPR.
en.wikipedia.org
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) is a private non-profit corporation created by an act of the United States Congress and largely funded by the United States Federal Government to promote public broadcasting. Historically, 15% to 20% of the aggregate revenues of all public broadcasting stations have been funded from federal sources, principally through CPB

So is it really just 2%? I don't know but it's too much.

It never ceases to amaze me how many Americans cannot understand that being offended by others' exercises of free speech is the price they have to pay for their own.

If you want free speech for yourself and not others, you should move to Iran and become a mullah.

***"Plus, Spud probably wouldn't want to tell anything to your face because it smells like balls"

And I quote, "Plus, Spud probably wouldn't want to tell anything to your face BECAUSE IT SMELLS LIKE BALLS"...

I just thought that was worthy of repeating...

I cannot wait to slip that into friendly conversation; "I'd just love to discuss gun control with you, but "YOUR FACE SMELLS LIKE BALLS"". Kind of emphasize the "YOUR FACE SMELLS LIKE BALLS" part, raising my voice above the music and background chatter as I turn away for some more pate' and Champagne...

Behold, the new Christian gospel according to conservatives:

If you want food go to the store and BUY IT!
If you want to have a roof over your head PAY YOUR RENT!
If you want healthcare, BUY IT!
IF a man wants to get married go FIND A WOMAN!
IF you want to reduce pollution tell the poor to stop smoking!
If you want clean water BUY IT IN THE STORE!
If you want to fix your streets, GRAB A SHOVEL!
-timbci

Do conservatives ever read the Bibles they thump? They seem to believe Matthew, Mark and Luke were primarily about supply side economics, when in fact the only time Jesus mentions taxes is when He says people should pay them.

Or is that comment from the "stay away from my money, you filthy poor people!" Libertarian side of the conservatives?

You people are really stupid if you believe that these death threats are coming from anything other than an extreme fringe minority.
