"We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds"



" The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
Help me out here, I'm a little slow. You have your powers not delegated to the U.S., then those left over delegated to the states right? Basically you want sloppy thirds?


I'm supposed to be at work, don't take my picture!


Homeschoolin' and home haircuttin'


As opposed to yesterday?


You didn't get the memo about minimum sign size?

That's it, I'm done, it's all I can stands and I can't stands no more! Enjoy.

1. So was there some security gate blocking people who don't have big pot bellies from attending?
:shrug:

12. Lol. That reminds me of what I saw last night.
I saw SouthPark's "Imaginationland" trilogy last night on their website, and it seemed so prophetic in retrospect. This huge crisis was going on but fat little Eric Cartman was ingoring it, on this crazy mission to make Kyle put his balls in his mouth. (Teabag) Now it just seems so appropriate that the teabaggers seem chubby.

17. I'd stopped watching after they made fun of Gore w/ the manbearpig thing.
Basically dismissing global warming -- it was the last straw I could take from "libertarian" Matt and Trey. Note to the creators of South Park: there are not always two sides to every story.

Anyway, I bought Imaginationland after I read that ROM: Spaceknight was in it in several places (the greatest of the Marvel superheroes. Ran from '79 to '84. Google it.), and I interpreted the Al Gore thing to be their way of apologizing, perhaps finally admitting that Climate Change is real.

31. Yeah, I had written them off too, until some recent apologetic episodes.
Like 'Margaritaville', where Stan's father forms a "cult of the economy", totally against spending, worshipping the free market economy as God. Kyle becomes a heretic to the cult (in a story line following the life of Christ) for saying that spending can be good. He uses a limitless credit card he got in the mail to pay of the debts of every one in town, in his metaphorical crucifixion, saving everyone. The economy recovers, with the obligatory Obama nod at the end. It was quite entertaining, and not big L libertarian at all.

I think that was the taco security area. There is a Taco stand there, where I had just eaten. They really wanted these guys to move on, it actually hurt their business because people couldn't get to the door from those "massive" crowds. Why do tea baggers hate small business?

16. So, he's multi-tasking?
Like some sort of a teabagging roadie? :rofl:

I hope they plan more of these embarrassing events -- maybe on a weekly basis.

By the last pic, he's lost the extension cord.

7. Funny, I have seen a ton of those signs today
I guess they had a place set up to tell the freeps what they needed to put on their signs. Since they didn't really know what they were protesting.

Saw a number of Children with "piggy bank" signs too.

13. Hah! A slogan/spell-check station...
... staffed by Fox interns dispensing clever slogans and magic markers... for that authentic "grass roots" effect.

18. The sign in the first picture
almost seems like the "R" was an afterthought.

9. Oh BLAH!
There's no color in these teabagger pics! Liberals dress so much more interestingly than these folks. Our signs are funnier, and there's art at our rallies. And is that guy in the first photo carrying some kind homemade power tool/sex toy? WTF?

29. Hell, it looks like they had trouble with the word "liberty"
look at the smear of red, as if they had to wipe it off and do it all over and they still had to force the "r" in there.

:rofl:

20. why hasn't ANY reporter asked them where they were when bush was destroying the economy in iraq?
Edited on Wed Apr-15-09 08:18 PM by dysfunctional press
i doubt if ANY of the teabaggers has seen an income tax increase since bushcheney oozed out of office...and many have probably already seen a tax decrease.

they are what they are- SORE LOSERS. the boston tea party that they seek to emulate was about taxation without representation- these peope HAVE representation- just not the particular brand of corporatist that they may have voted for.

21. RWers are clearly the WORST sign-makers in the world.
Did they never graduate from remedial coloring in kindergarten? It seems like they start printing out the words before they know exactly what they're going to say. No sense of spacial reasoning whatsoever. It bewilders me how these people can dress themselves each morning. I guess that's why they only seem to wear jeans or sweats. Just make it stop.

26. The First Pic: He Clearly Forgot The "R"
Notice how the "R" in "Liberty" is hastily squeezed in.

28. Well dipshit number one is a clueless fool
Clinton put us in the green, they voted for fuck nuts bush(twice) who put us in the red. A debt, regardless if obama was prez or not, that would have to paid back and done so by a couple of generations.

I am quite sure I am still paying for Nam and Korea. I was born in 74.
