We need our own billboard campaign. I'd like to see some that say...

TEABAGGERS ARE PATHOLOGICAL LIARS

10. Everyone sing.
Edited on Mon Apr-12-10 02:53 PM by wolfgangmo
On the 3rd day of Teabags my true love gave to me....
3 nailpullers pulling
2 hammers breaking
and a big old sign in the ditch, wheeeeee.



And lest I forget, don't forget to make the call from a public phone afterwards, claiming to be with the local GOP (figure out which GOP gasbag's name you will be using) and telling them that if they put the sign up again that the GOP will take it down again.

Then call the local TV, radio, newspapers and let them know that the teabaggers and GOP are fighting.

8. Silencing your political opponents
Edited on Mon Apr-12-10 02:08 PM by A Physicist
e.g., shouting them down, tearing up legally posted signs, free speech zones, clogging phone lines, etc. would be a characteristic of the rightwing. So why would you state something like that?

14. you just accused that poster of promoting something they didn't
want to tell me why? Sounds as if you were trying really hard to paint that poster and that poster's post in a bad light.

18. Sabrina 1 (Poster #1) didn't mention any of the things you fear
Edited on Mon Apr-12-10 08:35 PM by demwing
why accuse her of things she didn't do?

Now I, on the other hand, am all for:

• shouting them down - with the truth
? tearing up legally posted signs - that lie
? free speech zones - that go on forever!
? clogging phone lines - with the facts

I'm just sick of dealing with these fuckers so timidly. We need to get agressive.

4. My sign would say, "Teabaggers don't care about the middle class . . .
or the poor." But I'm not a pro, and I would go with what the pros find is a resonant message. That may not work, either, because it's all a guessing game. The one who wins is anointed for being lucky. I'm not sure it matters much, anyway, because I doubt the teabaggers will remain a force for long. I could be wrong--I was wrong about the swiftboaters--but we have to counter the opposition as best we can.

5. Bagpipes?
Aren't they usually played at funerals? Maybe this is a sign of the end of the tea party......

:wtf:

Nation of morons and fools.

Maybe education camps wouldn't be such a bad idea, considering the shape of this nation's citizenry?

9. Not exactly a cheap way of doing things.
Freeway blogger is just as effective and I would guess about 1/10 of the price.

11. What is it with teabaggers and bagpipes?? They demonstrated in Cincy a few weeks ago and had a
bag-piper. Is it because there's a "bag" in both words?

12. A tea person commented under the video
that the Marxist Democratic Underground is having a hissy fit.

Two problems - this ain't a hissy fit, and I don't think that person knows the meaning of Marxism.

As for the expense, I would bet that deep pockets are helping them.

I think that more than 50% of the nation think a little deeper than the tea people.

As with everything else, their sign does not say anything of substance.

21. Does that say "kick the scum out?"
I'm sure the irony is lost on these numskulls.
