Radical, Racist Signs Featured At 9/12 March
Radical, Racist Signs Featured At 9/12 March
This morning on ABC’s Good Morning America, Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) embraced the protesters at today’s 9/12 March in Washington, DC, saying that he was “glad they’re here to take back their country.” He characterized the attendees as nonpartisan, adding that “it’s not about President Obama. It’s not about the Democrats.” Several other Republican lawmakers, including Reps. Tom Price (GA), Mike Pence (IN), Marsha Blackburn (T), and Phil Gingrey (GA) planned to attend and speak at the event.
Members of ThinkProgress attended today’s march and the signs carried by these protesters were hardly nonpartisan — and were often racist, radical portrayals of Obama, despite DeMint’s claim. Some examples of what we saw:
In an interview with the Washington Independent, DeMint claimed that the attendees at the march were “a cross-section of the population.” When it was pointed out to him that almost everyone there was white, DeMint simply said, “It’s probably just the time and organization and the media that promoted it.”
Mark McKinnon, a former adviser to Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) presidential campaign, has warned conservatives from embracing events like the 9/12 March. “It’s bad for Republicans because in the absence of any real leadership, the freaks fill the void and define the party,” McKinnon said.

Tundra says:
Yes but DeMint said it is non partisan and not about Obama. Apparantly for many it IS about Obama
September 12th, 2009 at 4:34 pmIn their defense, they DID say they were there to take back their country.
They never said if their country was the CSA or not.

All I have to say about it is “Please, please republicans, run Glenn BecKKK for President in 2012″.
September 12th, 2009 at 4:38 pmWhat are they protesting?
The repeal of Jim Crow?
September 12th, 2009 at 4:38 pmI don’t understand the Ayn Rand sneaking in. In the early 60s When I was a kid in an independent Baptist Church (the Southern Baptists were too liberal), Ayn Rand was on a par with Satan and corrupting the good ole USA.
I know that Rand was against Govt intrusion, etc. So I can at least see a link that way. But I just can’t see the fundies baptising Rand.
September 12th, 2009 at 4:39 pmNot one of those teabaggers makes over $250K a year, so they’re not paying more taxes, and probably one trip to the ER would send them into bankruptcy — but they can’t contain their inner KKK anymore, so they march.
The black blood is just that powerful. :-D
September 12th, 2009 at 4:39 pmAs you can see in sign #1 (top-left), Obama is colored to the exact shade of brown as the Al-Qaeda members. That is simply putting two and two together. Same shade = co-conspirators. Good catch, my fellow teabaggers.

DeMint (and gang) are afraid of losing “their” country. They are hidding behind these idiots. For them not to distance themselves indicates that they agree. If the white protestors think that Blacks (or any other race) are reverting back to the times of “old,” they have another thought comming – no matter how loudly they scream.
September 12th, 2009 at 4:43 pmSo many of the “protesters” are aging fat white guys.
These men will have problems with diabetes and will have heart problems, if they don’t already.
After the first whiff of medical disaster, many of their insurers will drop them.
Many of those protesters don’t seem to have much material wealth or education.
What will they do in the event of catastrophic illness?
I hope that for their sake a Public Option will be around so even those morons can receive help.
September 12th, 2009 at 4:45 pmWhat is this $400 payroll tax reduction I’m seeing? I’ll call it a going-away gift from President Bush – and don’t you tell me any different! My wonderful Bush made it possible for wars and tax-cuts to jibe.

maple,
the rad right loves rand. but they
overlook this part of her philosophy:
Abortion
“An embryo has no rights. Rights do not pertain to a potential, only to an actual being. A child cannot acquire any rights until it is born. The living take precedence over the not-yet-living (or the unborn).
Abortion is a moral right—which should be left to the sole discretion of the woman involved; morally, nothing other than her wish in the matter is to be considered. Who can conceivably have the right to dictate to her what disposition she is to make of the functions of her own body?”

I think you have that wrong there Jimmy. The health care debate is “a critical battle for the heart and soul of the insurance and pharmaceutical companies” and for their bottom line.”

Maple Street brings up a fascinating point concerning the seemingly intractable differences between Ayn Rand’s philosophy and evangelical fundamentalism.
Those folks are not true libertarians.
They would avidly support an evangelical Sharia at the drop of a hat.
They just don’t want to pay any taxes, but they would gladly use a massive, all-intrusive government to enforce their “morality” agenda.
They throw the name of Jesus around with abandon, but quite honestly they have nailed John Galt (Atlas Shrugged) to the cross, and have transformed their notion of Jesus into an angry libertarian.
From the photos I have seen of that crowd today, I seriously doubt that very many of them have ever even read Ayn Rand, let alone ever having studied Objectivism.
It gets crazier and crazier.
September 12th, 2009 at 4:52 pmThere has to be some conflicts within that silly march as many of the guest speakers were of color.

Thats easy. I dont want to be defending Rand at all. She was a soulless harpy. However if the child is inside her. Its health is inextricably linked to the health of the mother and as long as the mother WANTS a healthy baby it is HER right that is being excersiced by prenatal healthcare.

September 12th, 2009 at 5:01 pm<<<…this is what we get with home schooling and No Child Left Behind.>>>
Just want to point out that not all homeschoolers are religious nutjobs, not by a long shot. Many homeschoolers are non-religious, and homeschool for a wide variety of reasons. Most have very well-educated, well-rounded, socially-adept children. Unfortunately, the media promotes the idea of crazy, religious, sheltered homeschoolers at the expense of the rest.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:02 pmLet them march, protest and shout all they want, if they keep at it, will only help showcase the insanity.
I feel for those aligned with this fringe, now everybody will see them for what they are and what they represent.
Their hatred and bigotry has no reason for being, yet the republican party is supporting it. Let them reap what they’ll sow along with the republicans.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:02 pmDoesnt look like a big crowd at all….many many more at the anti-war rallies
September 12th, 2009 at 5:03 pmIf these teabaggers could only comprehend the chokehold
September 12th, 2009 at 5:06 pmthat corporate healthcare has on our economy and our way of life.
What hypocrisy that they compare their actions to
the patriotism of the Boston Tea Party.
Just when you think these people couldn’t get more ugly, they have to go and fool us. I am glad that my father didn’t live long enough to see what has become of his beloved party. Even though he was a conservative all his life, he would be horrified by what the Republics have become.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:06 pmIt is NEVER mentioned by these goons on how to fix the mess bush left us but only complaints on necessary spending. Are these people so mindless they can not even remember what happened less than a year ago?
September 12th, 2009 at 5:06 pmI tried to read Ayn Rands books once…just couldnt do it, it was just..I dunno, nothing there, no dazzling new thinking hardly someone or something I would emulate, ever.

September 12th, 2009 at 5:13 pmI have said many times that it was an incredible mistake to have brought the confederate states back into the Union after the Civil War. Congress should have expelled the confederate states. We would be outsourcing our labor to them today making it easier for transport of goods and cheap labor. Toyota and Nissan already take advantage of confederate labor. It might even still work today. We’ll take the reformed healthcare, banks/wealth most of the natural resources and let the confederate wanna be’s have shrimp, coal, tobacco, poor education, substandard healthcare, high infant mortality and white inbreed mentality.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:15 pmHmmm…
Last fall, after the election, when the first hints of what to come started bubbling to the surface of this cell pool… I made a joke about “sweaty, balding, chubby middle-aged white men, arms linked together, marching down Pennsylvania Ave, chanting “We shall over come… we shall overcome… we shall overcome…”…
I guess it wasn’t a joke after all… or at least, a funny joke.

September 12th, 2009 at 5:19 pmTimmeh the brainwashed moron strikes again. Doing his duty as an ignorant punkass troll and showing for the umpteenth time how clueless and stupid he is. He FIRST cannot see racism in calling Obama the long legged Mack Daddy. Morons like Timmeh can NEVER see racism from white people or cons only from blacks and progressives. It is a symptom of being as stupid and brainwashed as he is. Then of course its time to change the subject. Just STFU Timmeh you will always be too stupid to contribute to an adult conversation
September 12th, 2009 at 5:19 pm@36 EmmTee – Thanks for the thumbs up on homeschoolers. I schooled my grandson for all of his years because we settled in KY and I saw how dismal education here was and is – compared to the schooling our daughters received in DOD (Dept. of Defense) schools and we wanted better for him. We developed our own curriculum and supplemented it with materials and programs from on-line. We believe in God and try to be good people but we don’t go to any church regularly. Our grandson was in a wide variety of activities like scouts, bowling league, martial arts, guitar lessons, etc. and had a wide variety of other kids his age to socialize with. He did well in school, graduating with a 3.8 gpa, continues to take college courses and works full time, has a wide circle of friends and activities, and turned out AOK – not like some of them that are socially-deprived and indoctrinated with a surfeit of religion.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:19 pmWell, thats certainly not what the astroturfers are about because what this free-market ideology would work if men were honest and not greedy, but that is just not feasible, people have these dark, greedy materialistic and controlling sides to them

September 12th, 2009 at 5:24 pmI embarrassed for the American education system. It produced these people. The Boston Tea Party occurred because they were protesting taxation from Great Britain without representation. These people have representation. You participate in the process every time we vote. These rallies happen because a certain group of mainly white people want to live in a fantasy 1950’s world that never existed.
I went to an Obama rally last fall, and there were people of all races there. These rallies are very different. I think these, mainly white, people are afraid.

What’s hilariously sad about all of this is that the tea partiers are being completely and absolutely p0wned by their leaders, most of whom support something their followers don’t want.
What those leaders support will result in higher taxes for the tea partiers and more power for the Democrats. I almost get the feeling like I’m watching a three card monty game or something.

Figure this one out. My brother in law is Chinese. He lives in mainland China. He had an aneurysm that caused a major stroke. He was rushed to the hospital near death where he recieved top notch medical care. He remained in the hospital for 6 weeks and has almost fully recovered.
His total out of pocket expense was aprox. $1,000. yuan (around $700. USD). How does some communist red state with a population 4 times that of the U.S. with a extraordinary amount of citizens living in poverty have better health care than the U.S.
Here, he would have died for sure.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:29 pmBeethoven Rules says:
God you are stupid and pathetic. Your strawman argument is so transparently bone ignorant that is is just pitiful. No one is saying it is racist to disagree with Obama. Then again you know that. You are a liar and a fool but even YOU arent that stupid. You just KNOW you cant argue the actual facts so you mangle them into something that a moron like you CAN make an argument about. What else would I expect from someone so bone chillingly STUPID that you dont even know the name of the Largest political party in America or so petty you dont want to use it.

September 12th, 2009 at 5:37 pmDeMint repeated his Waterloo remarks, announcing to the crowd, “Ladies and Gentlemen: Welcome to Waterloo!”
– - On every major measurement, the Census Bureau report shows that the country lost ground during Bush’s two terms. While Bush was in office, the median household income declined, poverty increased, childhood poverty increased even more, and the number of Americans without health insurance spiked. By contrast, the country’s condition improved on each of those measures during Bill Clinton’s two terms, often substantially.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:39 pmTundra says:
It doesnt work that way. You cannot replace those WITH the power and those WITHOUT and consider it the same thing. The history itself is different. The basis of racism is that you are saying or implying that they are inferior BECAUSE of their race. NO ONE in modern America could possibly take seriously a cliam that someone is saying whites are inferior BECAUSE they are white. Cons try that argument all the time it is specious and without merit.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:39 pmDeMint told Fox News that today’s attendees were “informed” and “outraged.” “I’ve never been so proud to be an American,” he said.

Yup, same as it ever was. They have a blind spot where they don’t realize how unhinged they are and the lasting damage they do to conservatism with all their fake outrage. They lost a lot of moderate votes during the last election when moderates checked out the blogosphere and realized how deeply disturbed wingnut trolls really are.
But I’m not sure how many of our trolls are actually interested in conservatism per se. I get the sense that many of them are essentially Stormfronters hoping for a Turner Diaries kinda thing.

I’m with you on comparisons and I didn’t want to delve an change the topic. I just wanted to know why China (and Cuba for that matter) have better healthcare systems than the U.S.

I know tros but if we can get him to do more than our old troll john kerry used to do and actually make a stand somewhere and try to defend it then he’s toast.
Of course he knows that and that’s why he runs scared every time.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:54 pmTim43 says:
I have an idea. Why don’t you write an article about how your beloved organization ACORN is helping people promote underage prostitution.
I watched the two videos, and at no time do we hear James O’Keefe tell the ACORN employees that the girls in the prostitution ring (which he did come out and say that it was) were underage. Not once. He only said that they were underage during the voiceovers. Not once is he on film telling them that the girls were underage. Prostitutes? Yes. Underage? Absolutely false.
Not that any of that excuses what the ACORN employees did, but just don’t try to make it out to be worse than it was.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:54 pmI’ve never read Atlas Shrugged – even though we had a copy at home. I’m glad I didn’t. It might have turned me into some slobering, gelatonous mass of overweight xenophobic white trash.
Or not.

Let’s get real here. The tea baggers are neo fascists. Americans died in WWII fighting the same kind of fascism. The tea bagger movement is a threat to American democracy. They seek a one party system that doesn’t tolerate dissent. They are not patriots. Their intentions are anti-American.

He wants to pretend that white guys in suits crying racism is reasonable.
Tell us T, how have these poor white guys been oppressed? eh?
September 12th, 2009 at 5:59 pmTundra. First I didnt see any insult to white people in the statement. It was a statement about the demographics being different than the demographics of America. Where is the insult. Second I dont see where I ever said it was OK to insult people period in THAT POST. Third the point is that it is not always racist to do to whites the same thing as to minorities for the reason I clearly stated. I am saying it is a specious and frankly dumb argument that you can just replace a minority for white and it is the same dymanic. It isnt. It isnt anywhere near reasonable to say it is.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:59 pmROFLMAO!

It’s a good question… I just didn’t think you can quite say “it’s because they keep their citizens poor” like Tundra did. If you know much about China’s history, going back to the Imperial years, thru WW II… the Chinese have had a long, tortured existence on this planet. For all their problems, I do give them credit for the enormous gains they’ve made as country in the last 50 years.

It doesn’t. Medicaid does, but not medicare. Those are two different things. You lie.

Health care can quite literally “make you whole.” Under the current “system,” you need money to buy it. Or do you pray away the sick?

September 12th, 2009 at 6:11 pmTRoS,
I studied Chinese history in school – and ten years later married a Chinese woman. I’ve studied the past and she keeps me up to date on the present.
You’d (maybe not you directly) would be amazed at how well the Chinese government is trying to (slowly) bring their entire country up to everyday modern standards. In many ways they are far far ahead of us.
It’s for good reason the 21st c. is going to be known as the chinese century – and it won’t be because they’re invading everybody.

September 12th, 2009 at 6:13 pm- – From Andrew Sullivan. Very much worth reading:
Congrats to the tea-partiers for the impressive crowds in DC today. One wonders where these people were when Bush was massively increasing debt, spending like LBJ, detaining citizens without charges and torturing them, and nation-building in Iraq and Afghanistan? I guess limited government is an elastic notion. But any serious grass-roots movement against constantly expanding government is fine by me. But then you see the images and pictures and hysterical rhetoric … and you see that this extremism and demonization of the president is as damaging to their cause as ANSWER was to the anti-war movement.
Here’s a test: when you see as many posters lambasting Bush and Cheney and the GOP for getting us into this crisis in the first place, I will take these people seriously as genuine small government non-partisan conservatives and independents. In so far as they can pressure the Congress and president into taking the debt seriously in the future, good for them. In so far as they are proposing no practical solutions, and echo truly disturbing hatred of a president barely eight months in office, facing huge crises on all fronts, they are doing their own cause far more harm than good.

Remember, we were the ones who freed the slaves. Believe me, id take a black republican president over a white southern baptist democrat any day of the week.
In our alternate reality, what you said is true. Other than that, the south got their ass kicked, can’t get over it, and you’re here to take credit for breaking the back of slavery?
In one line you say, “We judge people by their actions not what color their skin is.”
In another, “id take a black republican president over a white southern baptist democrat any day of the week.”
In fact you’re judging one by the color of their skin by taking a preference. Notice the inconsistency?
September 12th, 2009 at 6:31 pmHere’s something for the teabaggers to ponder:

Tundra says:
Never claimed to be. But because I am an average American I should just roll over and take anything you will give me, regardless of the costs to others?
No, you’re perfectly free to not seek treatment for any medical conditions you have. If you have health insurance currently, you’re perfectly free to rely on that. In fact, I don’t see how this issue affects you personally at all.
Being part of any nation/society involves a certain amount of cooperative enterprise. If you don’t want to be part of this country, then I invite you to leave it.
.
Tundra says:
They need to work the prices of the treatment not who pays for it.
The relationship between who pays, who gets paid, and how has been exhaustively demonstrated to be the cause of how much it ends up costing. If you don’t understand such basic economic relationships, then you’ve got no business pontificating on the issue whatsoever. This entire issue is clearly over your head.

Tundra says:
Nice redirect, we were speaking of China but feel free to throw any country not here in there.
The fact remains that the U.S. is at #37 in overall quality of health care, and the #1 nation does it for 40% less than what it costs us per person. Your claims that not adopting a system which is similar to the many, many industrialized nations who have an actual health care system because
China doesn’t have a good health care system at all (#144), so I don’t see how it’s very relevant. But as Rich H. points out, the mere fact that they cover people nationally means that “not being rich” isn’t a terminal condition there, as it too often is here.
September 12th, 2009 at 6:35 pmyeah reggie, I have repeatedly tried to get him to address his defense of “reverse discrimination” from an earlier post.
I sure would like to know how these white guys are being oppressed and if they are not what are they opposed to if it’s not a black president.
September 12th, 2009 at 6:36 pmDear Conservatives,
You may not all be racist yourselves, but you clearly haven’t done enough to stop crazy white racists in your midst. Ever since the Southern Strategy, you’ve been courting racists because you need the votes. This is why the vast majority of non-whites won’t vote for right-wing candidates now.
It’s a losing game for you because with every passing year the country gets a little more racially diverse and the racists in your party get a little louder and crankier. This is one of the many reasons why you’re well on your way to becoming a Southern regional party with no ability to shape the future of this great nation.
Good luck with that.
Signed,
America

This is what happens when you accept any argumentative premise from a wingnut as true for the purposes of any discussion. Don’t believe anything they say, no matter how apparently innocuous it may seem at the time. If a wingnut mentions in passing that they’re left handed, it’s a lie. It doesn’t matter whether or not what they mentioned seems relevant to the discussion at hand. It doesn’t matter whether it would be unsurprising if that was true. Call them on it before they use it to construct a bigger lie.
I can’t find any evidence that medicare covers prenatal care. Unless Tundra cares to provide a credible citation, I am going to firmly believe that it does not. Not that it even matters, but never give a wingnut an inch.

September 12th, 2009 at 6:53 pmI was just thinking. I wonder how many hateful comments were made today in the name of God. And I wonder how many people who held a racist sign or made a racist comment will be in church bright and early tomorrow morning patting themselves on the back for what ‘good Christians’ they are. I better think about something else, because this thought makes me sick.

How does some communist red state with a population 4 times that of the U.S. with a extraordinary amount of citizens living in poverty have better health care than the U.S.
Ummmm. Because it keeps an extraordinary amount of it’s population in poverty?

“If Democrats say anything inflammatory, derogatory, mocking, sarcastic, mean or hateful about Conservatives, Christians, Republicans… it’s “Exercising Their First Amendment Rights”.

“However, if Republicans even voice disagreement with Democrats/Liberals, it’s “Racism, Bigotry, Closed-minded, and Hate Speech”… Got it?”

Isnt that somethiing, the ‘free market’ capitalism put more people in our country into poverty while Chine took people out of poverty. And then we bailed out wall street to boot.
Ayn Rand was wrong about free market capitalism, its leads to robber baronesque wages, offshoring of American jobs, and thru deregualtion [gutting of Glass Steagall] a huge recession with many people losing 40% of their 401k and people losing their homes.
Ayn Rand was a fiction writer and she really, to me, didnt understand the unacceptable face of capitalism that woudl rear its head.

Wow, the trolls are out in full force aren’t they? Could it be that everyone knows the Righties inflated the number of protesters? Michelle (Wing-nut) Malkin claimed there were 2 million! YEAH RIGHT! Officials state MAYBE, maybe, 50,000 to 60,000. Big Deal. The protests for the Iraq War put that measly number to shame. AND those protests weren’t sponsered by Big Business. Some Movement! Just a bunch of White Breaders upset the Big Black Man is the President. Lord knows they didn’t give a sh*t when Bush was running up the defecit. Now it’s Obama’s fault! Give me a break!

September 12th, 2009 at 7:39 pmEarlier today I saw a shot of the crowd and it looked to be pretty good size. But!

You are requiring me to purchase. Regardless if I would or not.
So what you’re saying is that you don’t want to buy health insurance, so that if you require emergency care somebody else will have to pick up the tab. We’ve already established that you couldn’t afford a large medical bill. So you also want to deny us the opportunity to offer you preventive care that could make it cheaper on the rest of us, or to finance your coverage through an open system rather than piling unpaid emergency bills onto other peoples’ bills off-book, which is more expensive.
Just like the requirement for automotive collision insurance, there are some (rare but catastrophic) circumstances under which others would have to pay for what you seem to view as only “your problem.” That makes it everybody’s problem.
Face it, you’re just another wingnut freeloader trying to leech off of my taxes while also trying to deny me the option of structuring your leeching so it’ll be more efficient and cost me less.

Sooooooo… you’re basically telling us the vaunted “Creamed Corn and Spittle” demographic that powers Fox’s ratings isn’t nearly as big as we’ve been led to believe?

September 12th, 2009 at 8:17 pmWhy are ‘numbers’ so important to the Righties? Remember the marches against the Iraq War? Hundreds of thousands of people showed up, and MSM pooh-poohed it as if it was no big deal. Now we have the ‘Birthers’ and ‘Tea-bagger Parties’ with tens of thousands (even that is debatable) and we are supposed to be impressed?
September 12th, 2009 at 8:17 pmOn the Wiki page on my comment at #346:
“5% of the population had protested or made a public opposition against the war compared to 21% who attended a rally or made a public display to support the war.”
5% of the population in America had protested the Iraq war!

They may have been outraged, but they were clearly not informed. And neither are you, Senator.

September 12th, 2009 at 8:32 pmSince NOTHING can be brought forward by these folks as EVIDENCE all of what they say is happening out in the world is actually occurring, one has to ask one’s self ‘Where is this spew coming from?”
In a chat on CNN this evening featuring Bob Greer of Florida fame (that was the head of the school districts that grew infamous by being the moron that wanted to keep Obama indoctrination last week of his school kids away at all costs) and David Sirota (Columnist) the schism between FACT and COMPLETE FICTION couldn’t be more obvious. It is my contention that Rush, Beck, O’Reily, Hannity and their brothers nationwide (I could have used world wide but these folks don’t recognize that the rest of the world actually exists) have communicated repeatedly and are on a mission to destroy not only Obama and his administration – this is PURE racism, but are also take the US BACK 100 years to another time in our nations existence when white people ruled the roost but we as a nation were coming into our own and could beat up any one we pleased… That’s is EXACTLY what chimpy bush and his gangs of thugs represented to these folks.
This represents totalitarianism and a benevolent dictatorship which bush represented but which presented no threat to the people internal to the nation that wanted to be as violent as they wanted as long as they were in agreement with bush’s rule..
IF the tone, demeanor and rhetoric of the currently COMPLETELY mis-informed gang of protesters and the gang of media-types continues un-abated, violence will surely follow – and soon. This could get real ugly, very fast so do what you gotta do to prepare because there are a lot of these loons out there and they are just itching for a rumble…

Fox doesn’t do news.
What they do is more accurately labeled “news entertainment,” the same way that the WWE now calls themselves “sports entertainment” instead of a sport.
It would make more sense to show me a comparison of FOX show ratings to E! Entertainment channel, as well as the Stewart and Colbert shows. But that wouldn’t really prove anything either.

Sure, at least some of it. Go ahead and list me FOX shows, E! Entertainment, Stewart, Colbert, Olbermann, Maddow and that Ed guy.
My point still stands that it wouldn’t prove whether anyone was right or wrong about anything, only how entertaining the shows were based on how many people they draw. Fox doesn’t do news.
Also, this whole tangent is completely irrelevant to any matter of political fact.
September 12th, 2009 at 9:12 pmIs it?

September 12th, 2009 at 9:43 pmA lot of people out there have truly lost what’s left of their minds. I can’t believe the ferocious racism against Obama. My sister, also progressive, fears these people will bring him down.
September 12th, 2009 at 9:44 pmSince I only use my teevee machine for watching DVDs, I watch Olbermann online. I can’t be the only one.
I wonder how online viewing is counted?
September 12th, 2009 at 9:52 pmAre there no LEADERS left in the GOP who would actually stand up and tell these NUTS [including those so-called officials in the GOP] that they do not want their reputation as a party smeared by these lunatics? There is already a civil war brewing online, but I suspect it will not remain online for much longer but will eventually be taken to the streets and blood will spill. They are out to kill our POTUS. These non educated idiots believe they are being led by people with their best interests at heart when we all know they are being used for the corporate will. How can we make crazy people understand when there hatred is so palpable that they can’t hear? Is there a solution? This can’t continue!
September 12th, 2009 at 9:54 pm“I’ve never been so proud to be an American,” DeMint said.
Demint is a hate-filled, racist, inciter of violence. He is NOT an American. He is a monster.
September 12th, 2009 at 10:00 pm“Take back the country” for these terrorsists means “make it white”. Hateful racists.
September 12th, 2009 at 10:03 pmIt’s kinda odd, the tea-parties used to be legit when they were run by the crazy Ron Paul. It seems they have been hijacked by Glenn Beck, since then it’s been nothing but racism.
September 12th, 2009 at 10:06 pmAm I the only one who finds it interesting that the Foxnews.com website doesn’t have the Tea Party as its top story?
September 12th, 2009 at 10:07 pmThey don’t give a crap about health care/insurance reform.
September 12th, 2009 at 10:07 pmThe big deal is cap and trade.
That’s where the money is and they’re getting these dimwits fired up to oppose “cap and TAX.”
The behavior of the individual members of the rabid right is a mental illness brought upon them by a lack of education, and exposure to fascist propaganda.
They have joined a religious/political cult of sorts. Therefore, they will probably have to be deprogrammed just like the victims of other well known cults. How many of the victims of Jim Jones and David Koresh could have been saved had they been deprogrammed?
America will probably experience a “civil war” where they will attack Americans across the entire nation, all at once. They operating much like the Taliban, in that they are formed up into sleeper cells. They are currently arming themselves and preparing for the “go” command. They ply fear through their propaganda, and with their violent terrorism.
Once they receive the order to go, a lot of American blood will spill. Some of them are currently having difficulty remaining in the preparation mode, and have already spilt American blood.
There is only the hope that we can round them up before the killing begins and put them in some nice education camps. Unfortunately, it can be very difficult to deprogram cultists. They are taught to be close minded, because if they allow themselves to think, they will start to question their dogma.
I think I need to go find a nice sharp stick because I am going to enjoy poking them through he razor wire.
September 12th, 2009 at 10:18 pmI had to look it up, but a “mac daddy” (they’ve spelled it wrong, as usual) is a pimp. These people are a disgrace to America.

September 12th, 2009 at 10:31 pmsheesh, what do they have for brains? Air?
September 12th, 2009 at 10:34 pmWait, do they even have brains?
I think Obama needs to set a trap for these type of people. Hold a town hall discussion for Republicans to discuss health care directly with Obama.
The roaches check in, they don’t check out.
September 12th, 2009 at 10:34 pmThat’s a very dark prediction, Levi.
I agree with you that times are dangerous and I can see the crazy right taking a genuine insurgent stance and turning against their fellow Americans. I don’t think it’s likely, but I think it’s possible. There’s cause for concern.
Can’t agree on education camps and razor wire. Don’t know what that’s about.
I suspect the groups in the “preparation mode” you talk about are heavily infiltrated by federal agents. That should count for something.
September 12th, 2009 at 10:44 pmCNN has an I report stating that “thousands” attended the tea bagger festival. Not tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands.
September 12th, 2009 at 10:50 pmInternment/education camps are a last resort, but what other option is there?

Oh yeah, let’s just feed their paranoia there, LOL.
September 12th, 2009 at 10:51 pmI’m curious. Anyone on right now actually go to the Tea Party? Did they notice if any flags were at half-mast around the major buildings there today?
September 12th, 2009 at 11:20 pmDeMint told Fox News that today’s attendees were “informed” and “outraged.” “I’ve never been so proud to be an American,” he said.
And this is exactly why I voted Democratic and will continue to do so in the future. I had enough of the crazies, under Bush, running the government
DeMint is “proud” of racists, morons and vulgar people? He is one of the poorest excuses for a politician I have ever seen.

It is all about money, power and corruption. When is everybody going to wake up and see that we are all being led to the slaughter? When are you going to see that they keep using the racist card to keep everything stirred up? They will toss us aside once they are done with us.

September 13th, 2009 at 10:43 amThese are angry white people who have not been able to accept the result of the election last November. Nothing more or less. Bring out the white sheets and hoods and be honest.
September 13th, 2009 at 11:01 amI don’t want to sound like an ignorant, uneducated, radical/racist right-wing nutjob, but isn’t Progressivism just the current euphemism for Communism? Does anyone here think this ideaology would be better for us than what we have? Um, I realize that so many college professors laud the advantages of “Progressivism” but they conveniently omit the disadvantages: Loss of freedom of speech, the press, expression and religion(although some of you here would applaud the absence of the latter). Also it forbids the ownership of property, and anyone who makes more income than their neighbor will find that income “redistributed” arbitrarily. If you think this ideology is better than Capitalism, watch the movie “Dr. Zhivago”. You won’t think so anymore.
By the way, an annoyed American Communist Party spokesperson stated that the Democratic Party had stolen so many of their party platforms that they were going to have to come up with some new ones! How revealing.
Now, go ahead and vote me down, since I know you’re going to anyway.
September 13th, 2009 at 11:12 amDancer1977, you got it!! Both parties use fear and intimidation, often through race to achieve their desired results. YOu have idiots in this demonstration that were holding confederate flags or what have you, and you show the picture of the small percentage of racist morons that were there and you get your “its all angry racist white men” response. Just like if the right showed clips of the LA riots, youd get a response that all black and latinos are violent. Face it, there are idiots of all races, political affiliations, economic backgrounds and religions. We have right wing fear mongering on FOX and left wing propaganda on MSNBC. It never ends…
As someone who wants government to work for me and stay out of my moral and financial life while regulating the markets and enforcing reasonable laws (neither party seems willing to do that), I am saddened by both parties. I agree with some of these demonstrators in that the government is running out of control. I disagree with them that its Obama’s doing. There is ONE thing that both parties are interested in… monopolizing the power, neither one of the parties give a crap about you or me beyond the one vote we each represent (ok, 3 or 4 votes in Chicago and Las Vegas nowadays!).
September 13th, 2009 at 11:23 am#15 says: “As you can see in sign #1 (top-left), Obama is colored to the exact shade of brown as the Al-Qaeda members. That is simply putting two and two together. Same shade = co-conspirators. Good catch, my fellow teabaggers.”
Really? No, really? I think your comment sums-up everything we need to know. White, trailer-trash, racist,un-educated, oxygen thief.
September 13th, 2009 at 11:25 amYou know, there’s probably a good reason you’re called a “tea-bagger”. You might want to pick another name…you already look like a huge red a/s/s.
The Tea Party movement is not racist.The sign that says “Long Legged Mack Daddy” is a quote from Rev Manning-An African American Preacher. The entire movement is growing because the Government is out of control and is spending away our grandchildren’s future. It is Tyranny that these people are standing up against. The bigger the Federal Government gets, the bigger that crowd is going to get. The more aggressive the Federal Government gets the more aggressive they will get.
September 13th, 2009 at 11:45 amIt is becoming plainly obvious that this country will be headed towards civil unrest if more failing Government programs are added, more laws restricting freedom are passed and more debt is incurred.
wow. really wow. my feelings on your kiddieland protest group have gone from anger to pity. What a pitiful uneducated loudmouth pathetic group of losers you protesters are.
YOU HAVE NO IDEAS!! NONE! Your yelling proves it. You dont want to see improvement. You have no clue what you are even talking about.
By the way, long legged mack daddy is a compliment you stupid @sses.
September 13th, 2009 at 11:53 amLooks like a couple of ignoes pooped on this thread after everyone left. Yuch!

September 13th, 2009 at 11:57 amThese people are too stupid to know what communism is and to know they were closer to fascism under baby bush than ever before. No wonder the corporate whores play with the minds of the illiterate, angry, racist, right wing nuts.
September 13th, 2009 at 12:42 pmOh… my… goodness. Since when has name-calling, insults, threats, and a pure lack of consideration towards individuality turned into debating tools?
September 13th, 2009 at 1:24 pmLadies and gentlemen, we have a definite issue with communication skills in this comment section.
Before the “intellectual pummeling” begins, let me say that I am neither repub or democrat. They look the same to me in a lot of ways. I am for freedom, as offered in the US Constitution. I am for government responsibility and accountability. I am for a fair and equal judicial system, and sound currency.
Personally, I would have loved to have been at that Tea Party, because everything they were standing for was for EVERYONE’S benefit. One of the central themes was CHOICE!
Yes, there may have been racists at the gathering, but racism is exposed in ALL races. I think it will take several generations for that to be totally removed from our species, and that will be a glorious day.
Atlas says:
September 13th, 2009 at 11:45 am
Yeah? Where were you and these stupid teabaggers in the Bush years?
As far as I can tell, y’all rolled over for Bush/Cheney to scratch your tummies, and all the while spent more money than all the previous presidents put together, and narrowed our freedoms more than ever.
Where were you then? Cuz you know where we were? PROTESTING.
September 13th, 2009 at 1:53 pmYesterday’s event was a real eye popper. It is undeniably clear that this is the new face of Racism in America. But now it is openly corporate funded. Fascism is here, and Glenn Beck is the new right great white messiah.
September 13th, 2009 at 1:57 pmBush is gonna be remembered in history as one of the most freedom-robbing presidents in our generation, as well as an over-zealous war monger.
September 13th, 2009 at 2:11 pmHere’s what I really want. Bring me a real hero to the presidency that promotes tolerance of differences and bring back respect of the individual. Don’t “force” into law, what SOME people want. Offer something that EVERYONE wants. Some people would rather have government involved in every aspect of their lives. But, for those of us that want a more free-market approach, allow us to have that as well.
Freedom is not a racist issue, downriver. Government responsibility is not a racist issue, downriver. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is not a racist issue, downriver. I challenge you to explain where you come to the conclusion.
September 13th, 2009 at 2:19 pmThe whole point of the march had ZERO to do with race. Thank goodness more and more of our society can overlook color as a reason to judge people. I am certainly more apt to judge people by what comes out of their mouth than youth, beauty, gender, race, or appearance. Afterall, the true person is the one behind the eyes.
September 13th, 2009 at 2:37 pmDo you not see that the government is spending money that is printed out of thin air? Did, we, the people, give them that permission? Do you realize we, the people, will have to pay that back? And you’re ok with that? Do you know that the actual debt of this country, including federal expenditures is over $56 TRILLION dollars? I don’t know about you, but since I am making my money, can I decide what I spend it on without them stuffing me into impossible debt?
KinBee,
Take a look at the pictures above and the video on the thread above this.
What’s the purpose of the Confederate flag, if that woman is protesting for freedom and against spending?
What’s the purpose of the sign that says “Long Legged Mack Daddy,” if those people are protesting for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?
And finally, where were these people in the Bush years? Why no signs proclaiming Bush was a dry drunk over-spending war-mongering elitist?
Clearly you don’t understand racism when it stares you in the face. Maybe because you think exactly like those idiots, and can’t acknowledge your innate racism. I think you should take a little time to think over your racist leanings. You can only change a thing once you acknowledge it.
September 13th, 2009 at 2:44 pmToo bad these wingnuts weren’t around to save us from
the polio vaccine.
On the upside, they did manage to get a lot of soldiers and civilians killed in the bloodiest ways imaginable.
That’s why now they should get to call the shots after they’ve been very decisively voted out of power?
KinBee – if you supported the unnecessary, 3 trillion dollar invasion and occupation of Iraq, you have absolutely no standing to comment on, let alone protest against, sending some people to the Doctor who can’t go now.
Your morality is evidently as skewed as that of a cold-blooded killer, and no decent person should heed a word you say.
That you are not ashamed is a chilling and depressing idea.
September 13th, 2009 at 2:45 pmMy post at #461 goes for you too, “American”Dan.
Deal with your ignorance and racism. You’ll be a better person.
September 13th, 2009 at 2:46 pmDo I support war? No. Do I actually understand why racism is such an issue with you guys? No. Do I actually think that either of you research beyond the mainstream media? No. Both opf you have this thirsty desire to discredit anyone that just don’t accept your take on issues. Personally, that’s one thing I applaud about individuality, is that we can never really be the same.
September 13th, 2009 at 3:03 pmOut of a crowd of over two million people, the photographer centered in on some of the “racist” individuals to stir up dissent for the actual cause. Are you actually gonna believe that I would make my way through that size of a crowd, seek out the blatant racism, and go pat them on the back for their opinions? Get a life. I have several friends of all creeds and nationalities. You people need to get out more and realize that just because a picture insults you that it is reflective of the national average. I don’t care what race you. I wish noone cared what race you were. However, if I heard your slanderous spouts of prejudice at a party, I certainly wouldn’t go introduce myself… I like people that are already over it.
912′ers are poorly informed and massively manipulated.
September 13th, 2009 at 3:15 pmKinbee, all it takes is a few minutes looking at the faces in the crowd and their blatant racist signs. An example or two:
September 13th, 2009 at 3:17 pm
I have a family I take care of myself. I get, and have gotten, nothing other than the privilege of living in a developed country from my government.
And I disagree with you 10,000%.
Insult, insinuation, and rank prejudice is all you exhibit.
I’m ok with that, though, because I live in a Democracy, and you are part of a tiny minority of our electorate.
September 13th, 2009 at 3:19 pm“American”Dan,
I can’t believe you just used the “I know you are, but what am I” defense.
Hilarious.
You and KinBee need to go out and get some real world experience, and then someone might take you seriously.
Thanks for playing.
September 13th, 2009 at 3:19 pmSeptember 13th, 2009 at 3:20 pm
This place has some very weak debaters. Clearly, regardless of what AmericanDan and I say, we must be grand wizards of the KKK, rather than offering a discussion of some substance. Both of you are totally disregarding what we are saying. I feel for you both. But the good news is, you have to tolerate yourselves, I don’t.
September 13th, 2009 at 3:26 pmTa ta.
That’s funny, KinBee, because you are totally disregarding the evidence glaring in your face.
I notice that you didn’t answer a single question I posed to you. I guess you just don’t have those answers, do you?
September 13th, 2009 at 3:29 pmKinbee, I found your argument ludicrous for the fact that these people ignored fiscal responsibility for the past 10 years but now that a black man sits in the oval office 60,000 WHITES descend on Washington demanding accountability.
This is nothing but corporate sponsored racism and it is a SAD DAY for our country. The images from yesterday’s little party tell the story graphically.
September 13th, 2009 at 3:33 pmdownriver,
All I can say is “there are none so blind as they who will not see.”
September 13th, 2009 at 3:55 pmI can see that it really upsets you foul mouthed commies when over 2 million America loving patriots come together in one spot like DC.
Democrats were the party of the KKK
A Republican president freed the slaves.
Abortion was started by a communist to limit the number of blacks born.
A majority of republicans voted for the civil rights act
and a majority of democrats voted against it.
A government that does everything for you, will do anything to you.
This is your lesson for today, you can go back to your drugs now little kids.
God bless America and Glen Beck
September 13th, 2009 at 4:08 pmAh, it’s 2 million now.
You teabaggers are hilarious.
September 13th, 2009 at 4:12 pmBut you ignorant racists have the best view, huh? Got to find avenues for insult? Go for it… it’s a free country.
September 13th, 2009 at 4:14 pmYes, I did answer your questions, racist.
And, by all means, prove it’s corporate sponsored racism…
I DON’T CARE WHAT COLOR PEOPLE ARE .. Can’t you get that through your uneducated head!!?
Personally, Herman Cain would make a better president… research him….. he’s BLACK!!

Over 2 million..I am glad you are laughing.
September 13th, 2009 at 4:15 pmYeah…over 2 million… but you people at this rag wouldn’t care about anything called proven facts… you feel much better relying on fabricated assumptions just so your immature attitudes don’t get bruised
September 13th, 2009 at 4:19 pmDream on, little wingnuts, dream on…
September 13th, 2009 at 4:20 pmActually, I did serve in the USAF and was called a wingnut… how about you, tombaker? DO any time serving your country? Nah… you’d have a much different attitude about “whities”
September 13th, 2009 at 4:22 pmIf it were truly 20 million, it would still amount to no more than a reactionary fringe movement.
But it was 60-70,000 instead. There are bigger Star Trek Fan Club events.
September 13th, 2009 at 4:22 pm2 million…. not 20 million. and if you know how to use a Google search engine, and know who held the event, you can find the truth out for yourself… but, as I said, factual details aren’t that important to you, just insulting your fellow man, which seems to be much more entertaining for you… too bad.
September 13th, 2009 at 4:25 pmTossing tantrum in here all day does nothing to improve the R’s image or influence, Kin.
All that was accomplished in DC yesterday was the further repulsion of Independent voters, who do not want to be associated, personally or politically, with a bunch of foaming-at-the-mouth reactionary fringers.
September 13th, 2009 at 4:27 pmFreedomWorks freely admits it is corporate sponsored, and if there were two million racists at the fruitloop Messiah’s little whites only party it is time to lock and load. But of course 60,000 is a high estimate. Some sources are reporting 10,000.
If you really want to map connections there is a good website: http://www.muckety.com/
September 13th, 2009 at 4:32 pmyou don’t seem to have a problem insulting my intelligence with your outright lies, Kin.
60-70,000 – as reported by the agencies that know best, and who tally these kinds of events all the time.
if you were paying any attention to what i said, you’d have realized that i was saying
“even if the event was 10 times bigger than your lie about it, it would nonetheless be inconsequential”
you’re boring me now – i’ve got a football game to watch with my family.
bye.
September 13th, 2009 at 4:32 pmDude, you and your buddies consistently slapped me with unfounded name-calling , and everyone else if you scroll back, since I arrived… all because we are not die hard liberals. And I’m a Libertarian, a party that welcomes all other parties. You love tossing unfounded opinions out without proving a damn thing… you have nothing to back up your tunnel-visioned perspective.
September 13th, 2009 at 4:33 pmI hope your team wins, racist… have a great evening.

Pointing out that someone is a racist because they’re saying racist things is not being a racist. It’s the opposite.
I am just agog at the neocon meme that standing up to racism counts as racism. The sheer degree of chutzpah these bigots possess is just breathtaking.

Well, seeing as how you’re an ignorant racist, it’s pretty easy to spot you, but damn difficult to explain anything to you.

You can find someone RACISTS in any political party, city, town, but do NOT use that as a reason to label everyone else as racists…
You can if that party supports racist policies and promotes the worst of racists among them to leadership positions.
As has long been pointed out, the most pervasive kind of racism isn’t that which exposes itself by wearing hoods and actually wishing harm to minorities. Those are easy to call out and oppose. What’s actually more of a problem are the tacit racists who tolerate and lend quiet support to them. That would be you. That’s what you’re doing right here, in your post.

1)Where did Hollywood’s heroines go? Today’s films depict women as desperate, pathetic and frigid (but then, MEN make them)
2)Why men lie twice as often as women (and the 10 most common fibs)

You don’t know what “up to” means, do you? Picture caption in your link: “Tens of thousands of people converged on Capitol Hill on Saturday to protest against government spending.” Tens of thousands doesn’t even add up to hundreds of thousands, much less any number of millions.
But here, let me find some more links and we’ll try to figure it out…
OK. So where did the Guardian get that “up to 2M” number? Why, from Michelle Malkin of course. But where did she get that number? By rounding up a number she got from a twitterer who said he got it from ABC News. But ABC never said that:
Here is the original media report on the D.C. fire department’s estimate.
Philip Bump breaks down how this got passed from a twitterer lying about a news item through a wingnut blogger to a news outlet, as well as an illustrative example of the scope of the exaggeration involved.
Think about that: Some right-wing guy twittered that ABC said 1 – 1.5 million attendees instead of 60 – 70 thousand. Michelle Malkin used that twitterer as a source to post that there were 2 million attendees. And now here you are, embarrassing yourself in front of us because of how they lied to you.
How can you stand to let yourself be used like this? Aren’t you angry at the people who put you up to it?
September 13th, 2009 at 8:58 pmWell, I mean if it’s on a “tweet”, then how could it be wrong? [snark]
BTW, I was at the Nov 1969 anti-war protest at The Mall that truly was about 550,000.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:06 pmHey Stock,
Wrong again, buddy.
I’ve been here long enough to witness Nixon’s disgrace, Reagan’s falsehood, Bush I’s impotence, and Bush II’s puppet-show act.
I’ve also been around long enough to have seen many of your type pass by,
but I’ve still never seen any of you be correct about anything.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:14 pmoops – i must be gettin’ old – forgot all about Gerald Ford,
then again, so has pretty much everyone else.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:17 pmWell, I mean if it’s on a “tweet”, then how could it be wrong? [snark]
Or, would that be a “twit”? I don’t know all this new technology.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:27 pmMy stupid tea bagger ass was against the Bush administration as well. My stupid tea bagger ass was against the “Patriot” act and didnt want the Bush stimulus package anymore than the Obama stimulus package. My stupid tea bagger ass knows that Obama has spent in 6+ months what Bush did in 8 years(and Bush spending was insane). My stupid tea bagger ass is educated and informed and trust me-Im awake. We need to end the Private Federal Reserve System and get back to a liberty loving republic once again. Dont Blame me-I supported Ron Paul.

September 13th, 2009 at 10:34 pmHey Tombaker:
You might think I’m illiterate, but last time I looked at the constitution we are a republic, not a democracy. That’s why we say “and to the republic for which it stands”. They probably had already deleted that from your text books by the time you went to school. There is a difference.
KinBee, Stock and Atlas:
September 13th, 2009 at 11:42 pmSave your breath – you’re better than this. All you are exposing yourselves to is childish name calling. I find it interesting how they think they know who we are. For all they know I could be one of the ACORN workers that blew the whistle. They only want to exchange their hate mongering amongst themselves. It’s kind of like masturbating.
I’m Not talking about anarchy-but what this administration has done is expanded Government Control and Spending-as did the last administration. Even as a Liberal-you must concede that we as a nation will see continuous government intervention should the American people not stand up and say “Less Government NOW”. If that makes no sense to you there is no Olive branch left to extend to you-there is only division in this country. I beg of you-please let us sit down and reason with one another. Let us not perpetuate control over the lives of individual citizens. End the FED end Slavery.
September 13th, 2009 at 11:50 pmAtlas says:
I’m Not talking about anarchy…
That’s because you haven’t actually thought through the consequences of your own “philosophy.” Always assuming that any government equals maximal government inevitably leads you to no government, aka. anarchy.
The rest of us are pretty much moderates on these sorts of issues – some things should be private, others public, depending on whichever method actually works best. But let me ask you this – at what point would any libertarian say “that’s about the right amount of government, let’s not reduce it any more.” Try to imagine some circumstance under which a libertarian would hold that position. You can’t. That’s because libertarians are anarchists*.
* Exception – if you say “only have military” then libertarians support military dictatorship regimes instead. If 100% of the remaining government is military, then that’s the result.
.
Atlas says:
I beg of you-please let us sit down and reason with one another.
OK, let’s be rational human beings and reach a reasonable compromise based on facts and logic…
Atlas says:
End the FED end Slavery.
…well, that was short lived.
September 13th, 2009 at 11:59 pmI think I will save my breath-you either get what I said or you do not believe in the Constitution of the United States of America. Thanks Dancer1977. I am better than this place. I tried reasoning with people and they choose to use broad generalizations and character defamations to further their close minded tyrannical Governmental control support over a purportedly “Free” populace. Never did they try to incorporate Consitutional principles into the debate. Ultimately we all meet the same fate on the path we are on-regardless of political affiliation.

Man, I can’t believe you actually just said that. I will be merciful this time and slip you a clue: the two terms are not mutually exclusive. A republic is one form of democracy.

For all they know I could be one of the ACORN workers that blew the whistle.
What whistle? What are you talking about?

Atlas says:
you either get what I said or you do not believe in the Constitution of the United States of America.
… or I’ve read it.

Atlas says:
Never did they try to incorporate Consitutional principles into the debate.
OK, let’s do that:
Happy now?
Or how about this: under the U.S. Constitution, what body is empowered to settle disputes regarding the interpretation of the U.S. Constitution? Hint: it’s not crazy rednecks with ridiculous signage.

Atlas says:
I just shrugged.
Ayn Rand is just what a stupid person imagines a smart person to be like. Her crap is nothing more than a description of pure moral evil wrapped up to look like a political philosophy.
September 14th, 2009 at 12:35 amprobably not. unless of course you’re having someone read the page to you then dictating your responses, but I’d refrain from presuming that much.
i also don’t recall directing any comment in your direction.
here’s a little civics quiz question for you though:
In the Republic of the United States of America,
what political methodology is used to select leaders and make decisions?
I’ll give you a hint, because you seem to be struggling a little bit with the fundamentals:
it starts with the letter “D”.
Have a terrific Monday, my friend!
September 14th, 2009 at 1:26 amI am sure you all have one common ideal, support a president that has a ZERO back ground, support idiot elected officials that want to continue destroying this nation with mindless spending.
Fox News has claimed another victim. America weeps.
September 14th, 2009 at 9:00 amIt is not the South that is going to rise again – it will be Sherman who rises again.
These folks need to be expoused as the evil they are and rejected by the masses.

Oh crap, they’re on to us – everybody hide!

AmericanDan says:
…the evidence currently produced within the corruption of ACORN…
Cite some, please? Anything? Anything at all? Is all of this “produced evidence” kept at a password-protected site that only wingnuts can access? Because they keep talking about it, I keep looking for it, and it keeps failing to actually exist.

AmericanDan says:
YOU are no different than those that would say “no” to abortion yet would use a handgun and kill an abortion doctor, of which that doctor had a right to life…
Except for the little “not being murderers” part. A small but (I think) significant distinction there.
.
AmericanDan says:
…that have no clue what this country is all about.
Life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, democracy, checks & balances, freedom of speech… but I digress.

AmericanDan says:
had every single ethnic back ground, blacks, oriental, jewish, white, middle eastern, you name it, they were there,
I’ll admit there might have been some tokens, but I await evidence of your claim.

AmericanDan says:
…and to STOP allowing corruption and useless “bills”…
Yes, Congress should stop passing all of those scare-quoted “bills!” Man, I can’t get enough of watching you people demonizing even the normal functioning of government. We can’t have the U.S.A. without a government, don’t you realize that? The day you “win” in eliminating government is the day the U.S.A. ceases to be.

…so much misinformation and sadness in your life…
I’m perfectly happy, educated and informed. Please quit making so many assumptions about people you don’t know – it leads to utter and abject failure in trying to debate with them.

AmericanDan says:
…when you got done with your toy, was it a girl ZOOEY or a boy ZOOEY that flopped out of you? Play? yeah that is all you are about.
I’m sorry AmericanDan, but could you go into some more detail regarding what you’re talking about here? I don’t quite follow the political scenario and/or economic model that you’re describing in this section. Perhaps a more detailed and in-depth explanation of what you’re proposing at this juncture could convince me to “see the light” and become a fiscal conservative. Thanks in advance.
P.S: Zooey, how do you manage to get their goat so thoroughly? I must know the trick to it.
September 14th, 2009 at 10:57 amWait, did AmericanDan just posit that masturbation makes babies?
O_o
September 14th, 2009 at 10:57 am“American”Dan says:
Too afraid to even be on video and to make yourself be shown? Oh right, I forgot, you were soooo busy with putting the batteries in that toy of yours to stimulate yourself, you did not care what was going on in the rest of the office at ACORN. So what was it ZOOEY, when you got done with your toy, was it a girl ZOOEY or a boy ZOOEY that flopped out of you? Play? yeah that is all you are about. Play. Get a mop and go back and clean up the mess that oozed out of you while in that closet, will you? Your co workers at ACORN say they don’t like your smell.

You charmer, you.
I can tell you’ve put a lot of thought into your comment, and I’m sure your local authorities are on a first name basis with you, and roll their eyes when they roll up to your filthy apartment AGAIN.
Let’s do this again sometime. ;)

It’s a gift. What else can I say? ;)
They always think they’re the first to post ugliness directed at me, and only the least intelligent of them fall for the taunting. Like our friend “American”Dan.

Goats? Are we discussing agricultural industry reform now?
September 14th, 2009 at 2:33 pmSpeaking of the turnout again, the teabaggers have been sending around a fake photo to “prove” their claims. One problem:
Oops!
Number wonk extraordinaire Nate Silver also tackles the headcount.

September 14th, 2009 at 10:07 pmyet is all “a ok” for you to do the same thing to a republic Press, Right?? it does not feel so good when the table is turned.
Keep up the good work and God Bless
September 14th, 2009 at 11:16 pmif i am concidered a racist be cause i don’t like Berrys way of doing thins than well darn it —- i guess i’m racist, either way Berry and his henchmen can go straight to hadies
September 14th, 2009 at 11:24 pmWe need to get this Democrat vs. Republican thing out of our minds, it’s getting old!!
I know most of you all don’t agree with Glenn Beck, but he is the only one on television who holds both parties to task. I’ll bet many of you didn’t realize Beck called for George W. Bush to be impeached.
Don’t continue to follow a corrupt bunch because they have the letter “D” followed by the letters “emocrat”. The majority of the 9/12 marchers have thrown away the Republican party, and believe it or not, there were Democrats there doing the same thing.
When I see people on the board who marched against corruption, now following so willingly a corrupt administration- I see a group that is standing on a broken structure- a structure that will collapse.
A drop of bacteria infused water can ruin a bucket of water. Sometimes you need to dump out all the water and start over.
And by the way, these posters are friendly compared to some of the anti-Bush rallies a few years back. Some of the above posters actually speak to some truth, but the truth isn’t always popular as we’ve witnessed recently.
“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.”
September 15th, 2009 at 1:44 pm10 Lessons for 9/12 Marchers:
1. President Obama Cut Your Taxes
September 15th, 2009 at 2:54 pm2. The Stimulus is Working
3. First Ronald Reagan Tripled the National Debt…
4. …Then George W. Bush Doubled It Again
5. Republican States Have the Worst Health Care
6. Medicare is a Government Program
7. Barack Obama is Not a Muslim
8. Barack Obama was Born in the United States
9. 70,000 Does Not Equal 2,000,000
10. The Economy Almost Always Does Better Under Democrats
American Dan you are a vile poster, a coward behind a keyboard. You and your kind are responsible for the mass migration of Independent voters to the Democratic Party and until such time as leadership emerges in the opposition that puts a lid on your type of obscene, peculiar “patriotism” you are destined to be marginalized to the fringe, where you obviously belong.
September 15th, 2009 at 8:48 pmYeah, good luck with that.
On a side note, it’s interesting how closely the photos from 9/12 resemble this photo of conservatives protesting from years gone by.
September 16th, 2009 at 10:09 amThank you for your sharing.!
September 16th, 2009 at 11:33 pmAbsolutely abhorrent behavior out of this part of the American population. karin estetigi
September 17th, 2009 at 8:24 amWhat a fascinating look at the conservative psyche. LOL!
September 17th, 2009 at 9:17 amYou know what I am sick of this liberal bull shit being spewed from the mouths of the masses, its not un-American it is American, we all have the right to protest, yet for thinking Obama is bad we are somehow radicals? I did not care when you protested against Bush you know why because it is American, so quit labeling us a Radical nut jobs!
September 17th, 2009 at 9:31 pmThe sick leftist heart. It hates with all its might that which it cant control, corrupt or silence. Soon the patriot will turn the light of liberty back on. Not EPA-approved, mercury-laiden, compact fluorescents, but pure light. You cockroaches will scatter back into the shadows…into your filthy nests. Pray, if there is one cell inside you that believes in a higher power, that the light is peaceful. If not, you may wish you had chosen a different path.
September 19th, 2009 at 4:20 amSays the right-winger who hates his political opponents so much he dehumanizes them as “cockroaches” and warns them to “pray” that his fellow far right nutjobs will choose to be “peaceful.”
Nice job making terrorist threats against your fellow citizens. I’m sure Hannity thinks you’re a great American.
