Mean, ugly, yawning Teapartiers boarding buses in Pittsburgh right now to head to D.C. to...
Edited on Thu Nov-05-09 06:29 AM by demodonkey

...attend rally to "kill healthcare" (as one of their interviewed leaders said on KDKA-TV just now.) He said they are going because why should we "destroy everything" to fix problems for just a few?

I am generally a reach-across-the-aisle type, but I am finding myself really hating these self-centered people. Why not; they certainly hate me. Indeed these people are actually wishing me dead -- I have no health insurance. Up to now I have been fortunate not to have any life-threatening illness or injury but that could change in the blink of an eye. If I got sick or injured and died because I couldn't get care, I think most of these teapartiers wouldn't care less and some would be happy for it. I am sure at least a few would figure that's one less rotten Democrat and no-good irresponsible bum who doesn't have health insurance on the face of the earth.

:puke:

1. They are the modern KKK. Flag-sucking half-wits pointed at the Democrats by career criminal
Dick Armey.

3. Yes, why destroy the profits of insurance companies? And, of course, everybody in the country loves
yearly 25% increase in insurance costs.

4. You think about these nuts over and over
They jump up and down and scream about jobs, don't want health care, don't want government policies etc etc. why is this so important now. How come when bush was steam rolling over the country and ruining everything in sight and spending money like a drunken sailor, they never once complained.

In eight long years the tea baggers didn't complain about bush signing EO and taking over all aspects of the government. They didn't complain that he (for the first time in the history of our country) invaded a neutral country. The didn't complain when cheney gave his companies Halliburton, Bechtol, Dyncorp all that billions of dollars, which by the way did trickle down, right in to his pocket. Eight years of this mind you. But the expect the Obama administration to fix everything bush tore down in ten months. I guess for one thing, they don't admit it, but they hold Democrats to a higher standard than they do republicans. Because in their black hearts they know that republicans don't know how to govern, and can't fix a darn thing.

6. What pisses me off even more is
wondering why there aren't twice as many people willing to stand in their stupid ass way.

- They simply cannot AND WILL NOT accept the results of the last election.

- They simply cannot AND WILL NOT accept the validity of the Obama administration or Democratic Majority.

- They simply cannot AND WILL NOT accept that their view is incorrect or flawed in any way.

- They simply cannot AND WILL NOT accept that the leadership of this country is legitimate.

If their "effing" football team was getting beaten by 77 points in the 4TH quarter, it would never occur to them that their "effing" team SUCKED! To them, the problem isn't that their team SUCKS, it's either that the "refs weren't fair", "the other team cheated", or worse...in their little pea-brained heads...they think; "we're not really getting beat 77 to nothing, the scoreboard is wrong, and all the plays I have seen are just an illusion...the real score shows us ahead by 14 points"

These fuckers will not stop, unless people show up in numbers to confront them.

7. The irony of the situation is
that many of these people don't have adequate health care themselves, or rely on government health care already (medicare).

Their ideology blinds them to reality.
