"Stop ObamaCare" -I Saw My First Teabagger In Real Life |
|
I think I saw my first teabagger in real life. There was a woman at a major Central Florida intersection with a sign that read "Stop ObmaCare".

Either she was there a long time or not very committeds. Because when I went past the same intersection thirty minutes later she was gone.

12. Wait, is this what we've come to? |
|
Epic fail for democracy in general and you in particular, if so.
If not, you might want to put something that indicates tongue-in-cheek into a post like that.

2. I saw a bum with the sign "Obama wants change, so do I." |
|
Maybe they were the same person.

3. Did you tell her to "get a job and stop living off of govt. assistance?" |
|
That would have screwed her up.

because I am 77....she was probably a senior and you should have stopped and asked when in the hell she was going to give up social security and medicare. And how does she feel supporting the killing of Americans by insurance companies and the republicans.

7. We have a rather large, very loud teabagger contingency around here. |
|
They actually marched in our St. Patrick's parade last Sunday. I was quite sad to see someone I used to be friends with marching along with them, proudly carrying a "Don't' Tread on Me" flag. This is a friend who used to talk smack about George W. She hated him. What happened, I have no idea. Quite frankly, I don't care. I can be friends with your run of the mill Republican, but not a bagger. I refuse.

9. I haven't seen any GOPhers that don't at least have tea bagger sympathies |
|
There's plenty of tea baggers around my neck of the woods. Even those who claim to be mainstream Republicans won't condemn Hannity or Beck and get defensive if you point out their stupidity. So even among Republicans you have a lot of closet sympathizers even if they aren't card carrying tea baggers.
I don't pick my friends by their political affiliations. I can be friends with even a tea bagger and I have a few that are. They certainly know my political leanings and so long as they can deal with it, I can deal with theirs.
What the tea baggers are doing is giving the GOP obstructionists a cheering section. My favorite question to pose to a tea bagger or a tea bagger sympathizer is asking them if they hate democracy. They certainly like to think they don't, but you can't love democracy and love obstructionism at the same time. They are mutually exclusive.

10. I've got one right next door...... |
|
I asked him why he hated America, and then pointed out, his "Don't tread on me" flag was flying higher than his American flag. His solution, he took down his American flag. This guy is convinced the local convenience mart is run by a terrorist. (owners from India) :shrug:

17. I live in Western Washington State. |

I would never thought I'd see them here but by God, there was about twenty of them in a Fred Meyer parking lot last year. I was stunned.

Best way to irritate her.
