This has to be the dumbest sign at a teabaggers party.

[rateyes]

I mean, this is an admission that Republicans are allowing taxpayers to pay their mortgages, is it not?



Wouldn't you think that Republicans would ask:

Honk if I'M paying YOUR mortgage?

[MadBadger]

1. I think the "No taxation without representation" signs are the dumbest.

[rateyes]

2. Yeah. I defer to you on that one.

[polysciguy420]

4. that is

classic.

[Barack_America]

12. Weren't they switching that around?

And this blog suggests it may have been intentional.

http://whyimnotademocrat.blogspot.com/2009/04/how-about-no-representation-without.html

They think you shouldn't be able to vote unless you pay taxes.

[MadBadger]

34. I saw here the one that was switched, but yesterday in Madison I saw plenty the right way

[Kalyke]

37. Then illegal immigrants could vote.

They pay sales taxes when they buy their food just the same as you or I do.

Stupid teabaggers.

[FSogol]

17. Yesterday someone said they saw a "No Representation without Taxation!"

Just plain baffling. :shrug:

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

30. Here:

[Lex]

44. OMG--stupid just can't be fixed.

:rofl:

[Mr. Hyde]

22. I think the dumbest sign is the sign that you're sending to Americans

that you think it's cool to piss away other people's money on stupid shit to the tune of trillions of dollars and that you speak for the Democratic party. I'm a Democrat and I'm fucking furious over the manner in which my money is being spent by this administration. We were supposed to be the responsible ones, the adults. Does that ring a bell? We clearly aren't. We're spending money like spoiled drunken teenagers with limitless credit cards. We are no better than the previous administration with regards to deficit spending. I was furious with Bush over this, why the hell shouldn't I be furious with Obama for it? Because he's Obama? Because I'm a good Democrat who falls in line like a good Republican? Fuck that, he's accountable now.

[RandomKoolzip]

24. Duh.

:thumbsdown:

How does that republi-scrotum taste?

[Historic NY]

25. How much stupid shit did * do with your money?

[Mr. Hyde]

32. Bush isn't President anymore, is he?

[ForrestGump]

33. Never

was.

[uppityperson]

43. Am I wrong in assuming you realize that the bush policies don't magically

simply...stop, when Pres Obama was sworn in? That it takes time for what he put in place to wind down? That Repubs in Congress are still continuing his policies?

Am I wrong in assuming that?

[Mr. Hyde]

45. No, you're just wrong for defending bad policies because "our guy" is responsible for them.

[uppityperson]

46. So you are saying yes, that "our guy" IS responsible for them.

Thank you for clarifying.

Senate Majority Leader Lisa Brown, D-Spokane, is among those who have spoken about a need for higher taxes, and she said the rally does not change the situation. But she said she respects the right and ability of protesters to organize and tell their story at the Capitol.

"My reaction is that at the federal level, what my mom would say is, it's like closing the barn door after the horse is already out," Brown said of the federal-debt concerns. "In other words, I think that the Bush administration dramatically expanded our national debt and created the conditions for these bailouts. I think they are laying blame in the wrong places, blaming the Obama administration for the fiscal mess the country is in right now."

[Historic NY]

26. How much stupid shit did * do with your money?

[TheKentuckian]

28. Just popping in after worshiping at Regan's grave?

We need to spend wisely but clearly we need to be investing in our country while we have the option instead of handwringing about deficits. The overwhelming will be there, the question is will we have actually bought anything of substance and into our people or just pissed it into the sand and the pockets of robber-barons.

[Mr. Hyde]

36. I think the economic indicators reveal the answer to that question.

Foreclosures are still at record highs. Unemployment still at record highs. GDP shrinking precipitously. Retail sales down. And the administration is creating massive debt to fix a problem caused by massive debt. That's not change. that's more of the same. We are, for all intents and purposes, at the point now where we can't even make interest payments on the debt without creating more debt. That makes us slaves to bankers. That's what's going on. That's what people are angry about. They're figuring it out finally. Good for them.

[Javaman]

29. huh, so are did you enjoy the teabagging?

you are angry at Obama, but are you angry at moron*? You know the guy*, he wrecked the nation and brought on this mess. I'm sure his* name rings a bell.

[Mr. Hyde]

38. Bush did lots of things that I disagreed with. Why then should I agree with Obama when he does the

same thing?

[Javaman]

39. LOL because moron* destroyed the nation, that's why. LOL

getting angry at Obama is like getting angry at the mechanic for not being able to fix your car someone else destroyed. LOL

have fun with that. LOL

[gratuitous]

35. So those two invasions should be over with a snap of the fingers?

Ocean liners should turn on a dime. Skyscrapers should be erected in minutes or hours, not months. Travel between New York and Los Angeles should take 30 minutes, tops. And the airlines should offer door-to-door service instead of making everyone go to crowded airports.

I'm just trying to get this all down, so I know what else to blame the Obama administration for. Any I've missed?

[blondeatlast]

41. Mortgage crisis began on 1/20/2009 at noon, . Got it--and you are someone I should gice credence to.

Not.

:eyes:

[Tommy_Carcetti]

50. You want to go against Chuggo?

Fuck that!

YOU WANT TO GO AGAINST CHUGGO?!?!?!

YO, FUCK THAT!!!!!!!!

[Vickers]

3. Not only do I not get it, I don't even get what they are TRYING to get me to get.

:shrug:

[old mark]

5. I saw another one just like that - I have no idea what they are talking about -

I doubt if they really understand what they are saying either.

mark

[ForrestGump]

8. Same here

And I've seen a few for which it seems, at least to me, impossible to tell whether they're held by right-wing loonies or by more reasonable people who're taking the Mickey out of them. It's a sad state when the morons participating in these events are so mired in self-parody and oblivious irony that their efforts are distinguishable from actual parody; basically akin to how a good and increasing proportion of news headlines and stories these past few years read exactly like something that The Onion would run.

[JVS]

9. Hint to getting it: what color is her skin and how would tax money going toward her mortgage...

resonate with the other teabaggers?

[rateyes]

13. Yeah, but what about the bumper sticker from the TN GOP?

Do they plan on clandestinely putting the sign on African-American's car bumpers? :shrug:

[Tim01]

6. It's better for the bail out money to go to executive bonuses,

than to help with mortgages so people can keep their homes.

[Mr. Hyde]

23. You're kidding right? Execs have received billions but we can't even refinance an 11.75% mortgage

You've got it backwards.

[Tim01]

31. Sorry, forgot the sarcasm tag.

[JVS]

7. Oh great. The one black person at one of these rallies and rather than being upset about her...

taxes like all the white people she masquerades as an "irresponsible homebuyer" getting the white folk's hard earned money. :puke:

[ForrestGump]

11. "They're a very musical people,

aren't they"

[Tim01]

42. Ah, you should watch this youtube video. Ha Ha.

10. Black women for McCain/Palin...

is she lesbian too?

[doctor jazz]

14. Apparently the Sarasota Republicans just hired her for some pictures

here are a bunch of other ones
http://www.rpos.org/

[Gidney N Cloyd]

18. RPOS? '...Party Of Sarasota' was not the first 3 words that came to mind for me.

[doctor jazz]

20. Me either...that's why I was so curious

:rofl:

[YOY]

15. Well that's the most oblivious black woman in America...

Unless she can't read English.

[whatchamacallit]

16. It might be a fiendishly clever sign

She was either duped into holding that sign, or she's a self-hating black republican volunteering her skin to perpetuate the myth that the mortgage crisis was caused by reckless minority borrowers.

[sinkingfeeling]

19. Somebody call the Tennessee Republican Party and ask them what the hell that means.

[Sukie]

21. The image is from the Republicans for Obama .

Notice the Obama logo in the O? These people are supposed to be for Obama and bipartisanship. http://www.republicansforobama.org/

If you double click on the image, it will say Republicans for Obama. This must be a swipe at the signs that say Honk if I'm paying your mortgage.

[rateyes]

47. What I noticed was the fine print on the bumper sticker.

"Paid for by the Tennessee Republican Party." The picture came straight from the Sarasota Republican Party website.

[rrneck]

27. Nice "fill in the blank" corporate framing.

"Honk if you're paying my..." They don't even know they're being herded (over a cliff).

[ItNerd4life]

40. It's called sarcasm. I like sarcasm. nt

[omega minimo]

48. .

:crazy:

[Solomon]

49. To me the stupidest sign is the one that said

"Tax The Poor".
