Some brutal Honesty regarding republican trolls EVERYWHERE

15. Mom is a tea party troll

My mother is a birther/tea partier. She cheers cutting unemployment benefits needed by many of my former co-workers. (Company I worked for for 13 years went bankrupt last year and approximately 640 of the 700 employees lost work at different stages through the year.) She's posted many comments throughout the year saying that the long term unemployed are losers we should just cut off.  She refuses to acknowledge that anyone could have their job offshored and not be able to find a comparable job and benefits within one year. She resents the idea that any of her tax money would go to help anyone on unemployment or needing food stamps. And she cheers cutting education funds that benefit the inner city school my children go to. She also champions cutting entitlements like SS and Medicare for future generations like mine and my children. 
She does all this as an upper middle class housewife who has never had to work, who grew up poor on welfare, who collects SS. But she sent us a nice card for the holidays wishing us happiness and hope signed love mom. 
Tea party folk are disconnected from the reality of their theories and supported policies.
