5. I believe that would be assault!
When they can't win an argument they turn to violence.

23. Assault in both directions
since both participants have their hands on each other.

6. A shoving match is not one guy punching the other in the throat
I don't see the kid shoving.

Mean old man.

7. That old man needs to turn in his Medicare, his SS, and move out of the US
into Somalia.

Nuff said.

8. Harris Klein, "financial advisor"
Here's what he had to say on a local message board about our POTUS:


Harris Klein Says:
March 3rd, 2010 at 12:50 pm
We have known Karen and her family for many years and feel very strongly about her.She is a wonderful person and a strong conswervative.Her website(karenharringtonforcongress.com) is great). We want her to unseat Schultz. Schultz is no friend of the USA just like Obama, Pelosie, Reid, Dodd, Frank, Feinstein,Boxer,Hastings, Specter(the turncoat who finally acknowledged his leftist stance) and many others on both sides of the aisle.
The worst of the anti-USA folks are definitely on the same side as the strongest leftist and enemy of the USA, Obama. They have endorsed his apologies for the wonderful USA and backed his Socialist anti-USA activities.
One more big cheer for Karen Harrington and let’s all help her to replace Wasserman-Schultz and help bring good sense AMERICANISM back.
Also a big CHEER FOR OUR WONDERFUL USA.
Harris Klein
Pembroke Pines, Fl.

13. Is that a confederate flag pin on his collar?
What do the tea baggers and the confederacy have in common? Both groups are racist, only the confederacy was more overt about it.

14. No way I'd let that dude touch me like that
He's lucky it wasn't me he was touching.

My parents taught me to respect my elders but they also taught me not to take anyone's sh** either.

15. I know this is a generalization and I'm sure there are exceptions...
But so far, every person I've seen involved with the tea party has been a hateful a-hole.

20. Well, you know
99.3% of the racist, homophobic, consumed-by-hatred, uninformed-and-proud-of-it teabaggers give the rest of them a bad name.

21. You can't reason with
people who watch Fox news or listen to Rush, and I would figure that that is exactly what most Tea Partiers do. They've been brainwashed and dumbed down to the extent that renders their brains useless.
