"Obama and ACORN caused all our economic problems, not George Bush & the republicans."
On C-SPAN's Washington Journal this morning, some idiot called in on the republican line and stated that. You would have thought the idiot hosting the show would have at least pointed out that Obama wasn't President when this crash began and that ACORN didn't run the world's investment banks, but NO! She just moved on to more Palin teagbagger shit.

The crazies calling in on the republican line are more uninformed and brainwashed now than when Bushit was prez. I hate to think how stupid they will sound by 2012.

7. you're right. ask 'em what socialism is, same result
Edited on Sun Feb-07-10 01:01 PM by veganlush
I wish a rep. from the house would author a bill that is in effect, a referendum on socialism. Do any of the tea baggers know what percentage of the budget is socialized? Let them vote down all socialism, they can start with the socialized military, then go after police, fire-fighters, coast guard, nasa, centers for disease control, roads and bridges, public universities, libraries, nation weather service, on and on..etc...

What would the ignorant tea-baggers say when they see their repugnant reps. voting to keep a budget which is mostly socialized? Let them go after socialized security again while they're at it. It would be a great lesson for these morans.

edited to say: love the Edward Abbey quote....

6. Had a good crop of acorns in Texas this last deer season, got a 10-point...
buck with l7+" spread. Sat under an oak in a mott where I had seen some does stuffing them in. Saw nothing for 2 hours, then this nice-sized buck came into view. He (and a spike horn I got a month later) now reside in my freezer. All beef purchases eliminate.

See? Good things happen when you support ACORN.

9. Teabaggers love to rail against deficits, yet in the same breath they call for tax cuts.
Let's review.

Reagan slashed taxes on the rich - deficit exploded.
Bush 41 continued Reagan policies - deficits continued.
Clinton slightly increased taxes on the rich - achieved a budget surplus in his last 2 years.
Bush 43 slashed taxes on the rich - deficit exploded.

Do we see a pattern yet?

Hint: IF YOU WANT A BALANCED BUDGET, ROLL BACK THE REAGAN TAX CUTS!!!

10. Not that I ever watch that shit
but from what gets posted here, C-SPAN's call screeners love to put through the low-info 'backwash' of the right-wing's useful idiots.
