Where were all these goddamned teabaggers when Bush was spending trillions on Iraq?

[Hugabear]

I guess they're perfectly okay with spending trillions to kill people in foreign countries. But a Democrat coming along to spend money to help stimulate our economy, to try and put Americans back to work - that's unacceptable?

1. It' OK to use the word trillion now! n/t

3. True - done.

2. Thanking God for guiding Bush to that war

This is not about money. It's about hate, pure and simple. Someone finally found a way of channeling it for a day.

This type of propaganda is as old as the hills. Whip up people's hatred and you can get them to do anything. Anything, no matter how vile.

8. Can't get their sorry lazy asses up to pick up all the trash they

throw out their car and truck windows or stop to pick up the tattered flags that fall off their Humvees, but they can manage to muster enough gumption to go do a lousy sorry replica of a protest.

They suck at it too!

4. That spending didn't count 'cause it was part of 'supplemental spending'. nt

[create.peace]

5. my thoughts, too

and you think they were supporting my friends and i when we were out there protesting the giant sucking sound being made by bush's wars....

6. Watching Ted Nugent

on the Glenn Beck show right now, and musing how, in another context, his all-white audience would be screaming "FILTHY HIPPIE!" at him - just for how he looks.

Politics sure does make interesting bedfellows.

He played the Star Spangled Banner, badly. An attempted rip-off of Hendrix.

Big fail.....................

7. Makes you wonder how much the (R) and (D) mean to people

Since the Republican oversaw the greatest expansion of government in modern day history while they sat idly by.

9. a graph everyone needs to see

[Barack_America]

10. At pro-war rallies.

Where else?

:shrug:

The teabaggers are, of course, filthy hypocrites when it comes to who got our country into this mess.

[Vogon_Glory]

11. Because...

They weren't there because they were too busy saying.."How dare you attack our great President George W. Bush, you dirty-lib, terrorist-coddling anti-American socialist traitor!"

William F. Buckley and an older generation of reactionaries could at least write coherently and be witty. The current bunch of reactionaries are the closest thing I've seen to psychotics in this quadrant of this poor world--they can't think, they can't remember, and they don't want to hear any different.

12. Let the fucking idiots protest

they are bushes 28 percent. No matter what any other President does they are not going to be happy. They are about as relevant as bush.

[guitar man]

13. that's what I ask

every time one of them approaches me or sends me one of their vapid emails. In Oklahoma, you run into a lot of these nuts....too many actually, but I always ask the exact question you just posed. They generally don't have any kind of an answer.

[katty]

14. where? sipping their tea, eating their crumpets, smiling

[kimmerspixelated]

15. Pertinent question!

Perhaps they thought they would be carted off to jail, with the mafiosos in charge!

[applegrove]

16. That is a good point. Except the rich had tax cuts then. And this is what the teabag parties are

really about. So that explains it.

[malaise]

17. Teabaggers?

Did you hear Rick Perry, the fugging governor of Texas?
