A Call to Arms
No, not guns.

I was just wondering about teabagger events in north Texas and went to see what they had planned for Tax Day. Seeing that there will be a demonstration near me in Grand Prairie, TX, and that a local group will be caravanning up there for the event, it occured to me that I should engage in some covert reconnaissance of this group to see first hand what they are really about. So...

First, I'd like to call on as many DUers (and liberals beyond DU) to infiltrate the closest teabagger event and gather on-the-groud intelligence on this group to learn what they're saying and thinking in the trenches, away from politically correct mainstream media camera lenses.

Second, I know many of you have already done just this sort of action. Please offer any stories, advise, or tips that the rest of us should know and have before engaging such a mission.

1. Shouldn't they be looking for jobs?
Shouldn't they be out applying for jobs instead of whining all the time? I mean seriously, don't these people have jobs to go to? What, are they spending those unemployment checks at Wal-Mart creating their stupid protest signs instead of putting in the required number of job applications to qualify for their unemployment benefit?

And what about these seniors? Obviously if they can travel the country in an RV bitching about taxes, they have the spunk to get back to work like everyone else.

My thoughts on these stupid teabaggers anymore, is quite simply:

"GET A JOB", losers.
