My Recent Experience with a Teabagger

[Th1onein]

This woman was working in one of my offices. She came up to me and proudly declared that she was a teabagger. She then proceeded to tell me that the FBI had visited her house and told her that she no longer had freedom of speech and that they had shut down her blog. I looked up the blog right there, in front of her, and it showed that it was expired. She explained, of course, that the hosting company was just covering for the FBI and that it wasn't just expired, but couldn't be renewed when she tried to give them her credit card. She said that she had lost hundreds of thousands of dollars because they had shut her blog down because it was "professionally" designed. She said that they had shut it down because she had exposed that they were not keeping our borders secure. Very strange.

1. Typical teabagger irresponsibility, don't pay their bills or taxes, blame govt. for results.

[Whoa_Nelly]

2. Well, of course she's THAT important!

4. working in one of your offices... as what? resident nutjob?

as i read your great post, had to wonder, hmmmm with unemployment being what it is, how the heck did this woman even get or keep a job? um, does she just spend all her "earning" hours walking around doing her demented blatherations? I'm not being facetitious, i'm sure many employed folks are a little, shall we say, unwound -- just wondering how she keeps HER job, ouch.

6. and why does she need a job

if her bog was earning her hundreds of thousands of dollars?

5. You should have expressed your admiration for her skills, then told her. . .

since she is so obviously a threat to the Islamo-fasci-socialist takeover of the United States, it might be best if she not associate with you anymore, since most likely a member of the "brute squad" (possibly Fezzik himself) would undoubtedly be "taking her out" sometime soon and you'd rather not get caught in the crossfire.

Then shook her hand, thanked her for her service, told her how much you've enjoyed the very short time you had to know her, expressed your regrets at her eminent passing, then calmly taken your leave.

If she truly believes her delusions, that'd probably send her over the edge and her paranoia would then eat her alive.

7. That's funny

but mean. Poor lady is already nutty enough without pushing her completely over the edge. :)

8. Actually, she quit.

I wiped the sweat off of my brow when she did. I wasn't going to fire her just for being a teabagger, but everything else, well....sometimes those kinds of people just make your office a wreck if you keep them. I was glad I didn't have to wait for her to implode.

I don't think she liked me pulling up her blog, or the expired notice on the host's website. She felt it was a challenge to her credibility, I guess. Of course, when she came up to me and proudly proclaimed that she was a teabagger, she lost all credibility for me. I guess she expected me to share her "conservative" values and give her a raise or something. When I was less than enthusiastic, I guess she felt that she'd blown her opportunity to impress me. She had.

13. Thanks for not firing her for being a teabagger.

I am my office's resident liberal, and I would hate to lose my job just because of my political beliefs.

Then again, I serve as the entertainment when they are bored. All they have to do is start on the Palin should be the next president discussion and it is all fun and games.

[Th1onein]

14. I would never do that.

Everyone has the right to their own political (and religious, etc.) beliefs. I just thought it was kind of amazing, what she was claiming. I am glad that she quit, though.

9. spit my drink over my keyboard. does she normally lie like that

or is this something new.

[B Calm]

10. Republicans always lie. It's their strongest asset!

11. You should find a good psychiatrist for the woman. She's paranoid.

[Urban Prairie]

12. Not only do the teabaggers lie, they even embellish said lies

When polishing a turd when talking to co-workers, but also bronze it via email or text to their peers, and then gold plate it to or in honor of their rightwing blustering bullshitter (Limpbag/Dreckkk) or shrieking shrew (Malkinked/Coultergheist) heroes, when posting comments on their blogs or websites.

15. She spent thousands to have a professional design her blog but she never kept a backup?

Yeah, right.
