21. "Morans" guy wasn't technically a teabagger...
...since he was one of the anti-antiwar protesters during the run-up to or after the start of the Iraq invasion.

Of course, he's almost certainly a bagger now, so maybe that's just a nitpick.

27. Yeah, he's practically our mascot.
Isn't it horrifying to imagine that these people not only breed, they breed more than we do? In a few generations, Tancredo may be right about voters not being able to even read the ballots.
If these peope are actually spreading their DNA, their descendents may have trouble reading the ballots over their protruding beetle brows.

:scared:

7. That can be a real pain in the ass when you have slow access,
even slow so-called "high-speed" access. If you don't want to transcribe, fine, but you might consider chilling on the put-downs.

26. Which works OK if you have dial-up
Out here in the sticks where there's only satellite, we've got a two-fold problem. The speed sucks AND they nail you for bandwidth. It's not worth it in either case to try to download vids. But, hey, it's better than no access at all.

The transcripts are appreciated :)

18. Question: When did Kimmel become so cool?
I used to think he was just the sexist ass who hosted The Man Show, but, between this and the Leno takedown, he's been great lately.

19. I used to prefer Letterman and Conan, but the past couple years I've preferred Kimmel.
I especially like his supporting cast -- Guillermo, Uncle Frank, Cousin Sal, and Yehya.

40. The misspelled "N" word guy says it all
It's been said a million times on this board before but here it comes again: These people can't stand the idea of a black president. Yes, they'd be against any white or female Dem Pres, but Obama just drives them over the cliff. They can't (and won't) contain their racism, which is OK with me as it shows us who they really are.

Here's an excerpt from an L.A. Times article about the convention (I prefer to call it Klan rally) that tells me all I need to know:



Often those concerns were tied to the post-1960s culture wars.

"You took the radicals out of the '60s. They came into our colleges, they became teachers and they began to teach our children," said Alice Moore, 69, who got her start in political activism fighting against what she deemed inappropriate textbooks in her West Virginia town.

"The indoctrination of kids for 35 years or longer, this is what led us to the election of this president. It is why we're here," Moore said.

47. Shocking
The level of misspelling in those pictures is just crazy. Misspelling certain words is okay, even though you could check even hard words. However, the words they misspelled in the way they misspelled them is just silly.

28. The more you point out to them how stupid they look,
the more they look at us with that look that says, "You just don't understand." Problem is, we do. We do understand the idiocy and its tragic consequences. They're walking over a cliff, blinded by the belief they're going to be rich and live in heaven.

It seems the Tea Party people should try to spell check their signs. I know I have misspelled some words on this website, but at least I try to spell check the words I am uncertain about.
