We may disagree about various Obama policies,
but it's safe to say that teabagging nonsense is a load of shite.

How in the world did such an inarticulate mess of goobers corral that much publicity?

To this moment, no one inside or outside that "movement" (as in "bowel movement") can say what it is they want.

1. No kidding..my husband and I do not know whether to laugh or cry..
laugh at the ludicrous rationalization these people have come up with


or cry over the fact that these people ran our country for the last 8 years

4. Cry.
This lot is funded by the same people who funded the attacks on Clinton in the 90's.

16. And yet Bill left office with a 60%+ approval rating.
All that money did nothing.

They've learned nothing--just like good conservatives.

17. But we'll have to listen to the Scaife-funded haters
for four or eight years.

(With Summers running the economy, it will be four years.)

18. Honestly, I think that the media's reporting it because it's so goddamn absurd.
When even CNN isn't trying to positively spin these protests, you know they're just awful.

The media's covering them because they're kinda like a car wreck. You know you shouldn't look, but you just can't look away...

6. I'm sick to my stomach. Don't know whether it's laughter or fear. Probably both.

7. I have never seen such concentrated stupidity in my life

8. They have no clue what they want. They piss me off to no end.
They're angry about the financial situation and being manipulated by the same GOP dickheads that've been screwing them since Reagan. It's like somebody having the shit beat out of them by a thug, then taking sides with the thug against the cop that's trying to help them.
Ugh.

10. your simile is apt.
They remind me of the battered wife, rescued by a cop, who then starts pounding on the cop for subduing "her man."

All we need is some cheapo boxer shorts and a wife-beater T and we'd have a bad episode of "Cops."

14. Just like Palin got the Obama base fired up again during the election...
If I get down on Obama over some things I disagree with him about, I just think about the alternative.
