Funniest Tea-Bagger Story Today (for me)
This older guy at my work (he is the "fix-it" guy who doesn't seem to fix anything) said something so funny today about Cap & Trade. He told all of us in the lunchroom that the guy in the White House (can't even say President Obama) is going to use Cap & Trade to not allow us to sell our houses. I asked him where he got that information. He said - why Fox News!! Now I work for a TV station (a NBC station) and I cannot believe anyone here would watch that channel. We are a News station. We report the news and we don't make up facts. Fixed News on the other hand is blantantly lying to these folks. I guess the least informed people are better for them!!!

1. That's why slaves weren't allowed to learn to read...
Knowledge is powerful, but so is ignorance... it's the yin and yang of societal intelligence.

5. Ha!
He sounds just like the guy they had on SNL's weekend update. You should send this story to them I'm sure they would use it.
