The Tea Party isn't so bright when it comes to anything
But when it comes to slogans, they REALLY suck:

1. This leaves me wondering what in the world they're trying to say.
Just like a lot of the teabagger signs I've seen. Expect us?

:wtf:

11. Heh heh. That one's sort of a dog whistle.
And after others have weighed in I've realized it's not the only one.

They stole it from 4chan.
If that's what they want their image to be, then... :rofl:

12. There just wasn't room on the bumpersticker for the last line.
"We are plagiarists, incapable of independent creative thought."

2. Um, are they really tying themselves to Anon?
Seems like a 23 yr old came up with this campaign. Of course, anyone who knows what this is in reference to is more than likely not a teabagger.

3. Isn't this an anti-Scientology slogan?
Wow, that's REALLY fucking lame if that isn't photoshopped.

6. They don't forget... unless it's George W. Bush
Then there is a memory gap there the size of the Great North Woods.

13. Oh No They Didn’t...(Full story here)...
Backstory: Earlier this week, The Oregon Tea Party prints bumper stickers with the slogan of a very infamous internet hate machine known as Anonymous, then backpedals when trolls start descending upon their organization en masse to remind them that they goofed. The tea party issues an apology, shuts down their website, and all is right with the world. Until today…

Apparently, The Oregon Tea Party is back for round two and ready to take on Anonymous. Bad idea…

14. AND even tho congress refused to prosecute the Bush
Administration WE WILL NEVER FORGET WHAT THEY DID TO AMERICA. We will never forget what they did to Iraq and its citizens, we will never forget they approved torture. We will never forget that they let corporations run wild and move all the good paying jobs overseas while Cheney filled his pockets with no bid contracts he gave to Halliburton.

THERE ARE A HELL OF LOT THINGS REAL TRUE BLUE AMERICANS WILL NOT FORGET ABOUT REPUBLICANS. And we will never ever vote for any of those bums.

17. "We are stupid. We are sheep. We are getting extremely tiresome."
That's my suggestion for their next signage.

21. The #1 rule of the internet - the ONE thing every person using it should know:
Don't provoke Anonymous. Just don't do it. Don't acknowledge them, don't borrow from them, just leave them in their own little vaccuum. If you try to engage them in any way, you are going to lose, unless you bring some epic win (see the old spice guy).
