Other than that, definitely a teabagger. Are they all white men of a certain age with beer bellies and facial hair? Is that the teabagger costume?

I know, right?

It's like they all just love being parodies of themselves. I wonder if it's a defense mechanism? Can a parody be a parody anymore if it's the truth?

That's one of the things I love about being a liberal, we're all so different! If you go to a left-leaning event, you get folks of all ages, colors, styles, cultures, etc. I love it! You see a pic of a teabag rally and it's overweight old white guys. (Do people say "sausage-fest" anymore?)

I saw a car here with 5 NRA stickers on it in a parking lot with the window rolled halfway down. I thought "I bet there's at least one gun in there for the grabbing".

Don't advertise what you've got going on in your car or at your house.

9/10 on the creativity and difficulty level.

My only criticism is that he should have inculded a few rounds in the empty chambers.

I'd kick his mail so far back into the chamber he'd have to lose weight to get his social security check.

I wonder if it measures 42 inches from grade to the bottom of the mail box? If not it's in violation of the postal code, don't matter

how pretty it is.

Buchko said the unusual lawn ornament wasn’t designed as a political statement. He was just hoping to pick up work for his cabinet-making and metal fabrication business.

“It’s just to drum up business, because I’m broke,” he said.

to make ends meet. He could have fabricated something else but this did get people talking.

Maybe it will get this guy some orders for his cabinets eventually.

I hope it does.
