1. Have your gonads always been shriveled and useless?
Male or female. Just curious: if you know it is a teabagger, WHY THE FUCK would you agree to a date?

4. Why do you oppose health care coverage for all Americans?
And for you, WHY are you dating a teabagger? I would rather beat my head into a wall.

23. I've actually asked that one! Or really close to it.
Last month I had the chance and I asked a person who was ranting about tea parties what rights Obama had taken away from Americans then since he'd been in office. He said he couldn't afford to buy ammunition now because it had skyrocketed in price due to Obama being president. I told him if the prices had went up it was because it was being manipulated by people taking advantage of uninformed consumers. He told me I was a "fu**ing liberal idiot.

The man was batshit crazy.

get a little sludge on you when their head explodes.

22. What was the last opinion you ever formed independently?
You know, without Rush, Hannity, Glenn, Sarah or everyone on Fox news telling you what your opinion was?

Or, if you want to take a more gentle approach (like, if he's a hot tea bagger), then ask him what parts of the Republican / Conservative Party platform he disagrees with? Find some middle ground!

Good luck and report back!

24. If you are against big government....
Edited on Tue Dec-08-09 10:53 PM by Bjorn Against
does that also mean you opposed the creation of the Department of Homeland Security, believe the military budget should be slashed, believe Bush's warrantless wiretapping program was too intrusive, oppose all faith-based initiative programs, believe the Patriot Act should be repealed, believe that the government should not be able to torture any human being, support a strong separation of church and state, oppose our government meddling in the affairs of Iraq and Afghanistan, believe that the government should have no business preventing consenting adults from marrying, believe that women should not be prevented by our government from having an abortion, and you believe the Republican Party was wrong when they used the government to interfere with a patient's medical care in the Terry Schiavo case?

Make sure to ask it all in one giant question like this and then watch their heads explode when they all of a sudden realize that they have a large number of big government programs they have to defend.

29. How can Pro-War mesh with fiscal conservativism?
"Defense" spending ranked the #1 largest sector of ALL govt spending from 1982-2008. Surpassed only by bank bailouts this year.

80% of our $12+ Trillion national debt is due to "defense" spending.

36. I would never go on a date with one in the first place.
Besides, I'm a lesbian, so the teabaggers would have nothing to do with me.
