Propagating the notion that Tea Partiers must be stupid.

It's the "Teabonics" Flickr set, collecting photographs from Tea Party events that depict signs with spelling or grammar errors. Example:



The first commenter says: "I guess that's why they call it 'fee'-dom." A few comments down someone asks if maybe it's Photoshopping. Yes, it's so easy to Photoshop errors onto people's signs. (I wonder if there are any defamation lawsuits based on the photographic lie that results.)

Via Wonkette, where commenters are having fun mocking someone who wrote "I did’nt serve 22 years for Socialism":
I love the “Did’NT Serve” sign.

Seems the three Rs for Teabaggers is Retardism, Racism, and Recidivism not that librul reading, riting and rithmatics.

Simpleton white dumbfuck retards, all.
So, one man served in the military for more than 2 decades and then misplaced an apostrophe, and another is skilled in the detection of racism and the use of mental disability as metaphor.

Why are liberals so hung up on race? What is the point of referencing the race of the protesters?

For many, using the Wonkette commenters as an example, I think the plan goes something like this:

Plan A: elect transcendent post-racial, post-partisan leader to take us into the Age of Aquarius

If that fails, Plan B: result to puerile name-calling and feces-flinging

The hatred of white middle class folks is quite remarkable.

Goes back to the contempt for white men. On TV, white men are invariably depicted as doofus retards and outright racists.

I'd ask why, but I know... We're all just hillbilly racists, waiting for the slightest justification to re-launch our local Klan.

The Republicans are pretty worthless, because they won't fight against racial and sexual quotas designed to punish white men. (That's why Sarah Palin, despite her negatives, is the best candidate to run again Obama. At least she can go on the offensive and criticize him. If the Republicans run a white man, he'll do what McCain did... chicken out in fear of being called a racist.)

But, the Democrats are just plain vicious assholes.

And the assholes carrying on this way are invariably white. Usually white women. This contempt for white men that is so characteristic of educated, liberal white women... what can I say?

I left them a long time ago for a Filipina. A Filipina respects her man and wants to build him up. The worthless white woman wants to tear her man down.

And, for you retard racists out there. My Filipina makes more money than most of you. She owns real estate in the U.S. and the Philippines. And, unlike the wretched liberal white woman, she knows how to cook.

How did liberal white women become so preposterously ugly and vicious? They worked really hard at it.

Any white man who wastes his time on a white, liberal woman... well, you've got to be a masochist. Look elsewhere for a woman who'll give you respect.

If I saw a misspelling that changed "Free" to "Fee" for a group that is concerned primarily about TAXES (ie, fee's) I wouldn't assume it was a typo.

Of course, for liberal protests they tend to get corporately made up signs that all say the same thing, so I don't know why they think their protests would be any better if their people actually made their own signs.

We all know that by virtue of their political party affiliation Democrats have a far superior intellect than Republicans.

Fortunately, we are lucky enough to pay the salaries of intellectual giants such as Democratic Congressmen Hank Johnson who has the wisdom to question a high ranking military officer about the possibility that the island of Guam could tip over and capsize from over-population.

Luckily, the admiral has apparently considered that possibility and reassures the astute Congressman, "we don't anticipate that". Whew!!

The term "teabagger" used by liberal haters is so unacceptable, I have started calling those who use it "dickwads" and "cunts" to their faces. This last Monday, while we visited a friends home, an acquaintance of our friends that I had not previously met started on a rant about teabaggers. I interrupted with "why do cunts like you always insist on using such derogatory terms for "tea partiers". She was stunned - strange for such a mouthy person - not the least because her 11 year old daughter was sitting next to her. Our friend looked at me and said "that was out of line" and I said "exactly - just my point" and then told the 11 year old exactly what "tea bagging" is. The girls mother left the room with her daughter in tow.

Sad when someone else has to educate a liberal"s kids in how evil their parents can sometimes be.

The reason they are so hung up on race is due to the fact that they are projecting their subliminal hate for themselves onto others. Simply put, they are spoiled children who have never been disciplined or held accountable for their actions. They have no understanding of the value of anything because they never had to work for it.

If signs are misspelled I can only say that;

1. They are a victim of an educational system that is more worried about eubonics and feelings (How does that make you feeeeel?) Do our schools actually have spelling and grammar tests these days? Judging from some of the marquee's I see, as well as business signs, it doesn't appear to be so.

2. At least the signs in question were printed at home rather than by a bunch of SEIU thugs extorting the taxpayers to support the sign production and their cadillac retirement/health system.

Pity the entitlement crowd. They have no souls. They worship Darwin fancying themselves as superior until the proverbial bad guy threatens them. Darwinism and the survival of the fittest will be their undoing.

Since the Democrats have gone from being reliant on the "Solid South" to relying on the "Black" and "Hispanic" vote to maintain their majority in Congress, it is important to make sure that "people of color" stay with their groups.
The old tactics still apply; one just switches targets and the adjectives used.

Whatever, let them have their fun. Making fun of perceived stupidity on the other side is a time honored tradition for those who want to avoid the substance of the argument (fine for a break, but, when continuous, shows that one has no substance).

What I'm more amazed at is the incredible cognitive dissodence that has to be ignored to accuse a group of racism while also using the phrase "simpleton white dumbfuck retards."

lyssalovelyredhead,

I wasn't really arguing for "white superiority" yesterday.

I was arguing that white men should aspire to compete equally with black men on the basketball court and the football field.

It's indicative of just how poisoned our attitudes have become toward white men that arguing that white men should aspire to compete on an equal footing is regarded as preaching for "white superiority."

Likewise, I'm repeated told that opposition to racial and sexual quotas designed to punish white men marks me as a racist. Expected to compete for a job on an equal basis is playing the victim, according to the diversity-philes.

My point is, the reaction to it shows that the overwhelming attitude here is to reject racism. Those who cry racist are assholes and liars.

You're having some fun, here. What a childish game you're playing!

I'm an independent contractor who must constantly search for work. Every job goes first to the diversity candidate. Fortunately, few women and blacks gravitate to the tech field in which I work, so some employers are forced to hire me, despite their determination to fill their quota spots.

So, every time I seek work, the first considerations are racial and sexual quotas... And, I'm hung up on race!

Fuck you, Charley. I know when somebody's eating my lunch.

The reason the TV commercials are so overwhelming in negative depiction of men is now hard to fathom. I've been working in the tech/entertainment field for decades. The "creative" departments in LA and New York City are predominantly gay. In some shops, you'd better not apply unless you're gay.

The "Feedom" sign reminds me of the "Chains you can believe in" sign.
It might be a misspelling. But I doubt it because he correctly spelled the very same word elsewhere on the very same sign.

Of course, if you hate the "teabaggers" so vehemently that you believe they are ignant racists all, why would you give them credit for being clever with language?

No. They are knuckle dragging mouth breathers and they can't even spell the word they claim to love and revere so deeply.

Oh I don’t like it either, but I suppose I’ve become mostly immune to it on this blog, since some people just seem prone to do that. I’m a little curious why I was called “charley” because, wtf? Am I supposed to be a member of the Viet-cong or something? Weird.

As for this: “why can’t ya’ll stand apart from this group of dum-dums”…nobody likes improper spelling (although I think the Feedom guy was making a rather obvious point) or bad grammar, but that doesn’t mean a person is evil, or even wrong about the substance.

I thought about commenting on that, but I was going to give him the benefit of the doubt that he was just choosing a common name.

But, it reminded me of when I was in college and waitressing at a restaurant called "O'Charley's." Around Memorial Day, they put up the sign advertising some specials that said something along the lines of "Celebrate Memorial Day with Charley!" Someone called and complained about the reference to the Viet-cong, or Asians, or something. We laughed about it for months. Good times.

I doubt it either, but I believe that has more to do with someone who will call their opponents "Tea-Bagges"....I doubt using a nasty epithet is going to raise the consciousness of a Klansmen, but I doubt much of anything would.

I still like the apporach....it calls "your" unconscious decisions to the fore...

"Hey, you can't call me THAT!"

Prairie Wind...It's like my Pa..very Southern....a certain nut, can't recall which one, was called, colloquially, "N*gger Toes." And the word "N*gger" was tossed about quite casually by his class and generation.

Now Pa wasn't a bad man, in fact I think, that on the whole he was a pretty decent one, BUT he had that big blind spot....

So personally, I believe any time he dropped the word "N*gger" around a Black, a good response would have been to casually call my Pa a "C*ck-Sucker".

Because for a man of his age and class that was pretty much the WORST thing you could call a man....

It might have gotten my father's attention....

"Well, this bunch of N*ggers were standing around..."

"And then you showed up, eh C*ck-Sucker?"

One of the best ways of keeping the Tea Party movement motivated is the lame attacks and disparagement from the left. It fans the flames and simultaneously admits to fence sitters that the movement is working and their opponents have no arguments to counter. In addition, the middle is starting to sympathize with the movement as an underdog under attack. That's why the President has started to acknowledge them as valid, but he still attacked and blew that opportunity.

Love it.

They're using old clips, which the Keith representative conceeded are the property of the network for their own use. Sounds to me like those saying that Fox is misrepresenting are the ones who are actually doing the misrepresenting.

Then again, take a look at the comment boards on DU or Kos (you may as well go off your meds that day) and then you'll know why outfits like ACORN and ANSWER feel obliged to hand out printed signs at their demonstrations.

I'd drop the "Faux News" ting there Alpha. You realize that it's audience is larger than CNN's and MSNBC's...COMBINED. .

You need a refresher on logic. The size of the audience is not indicative of the accuracy of the news.


Yes, we all know MSNBC is known globally for its faultless accuracy.

As for the tea-bagger label, I'd bet that there are some liberals who use it in all innocence.

Let's get this straight. The teabag verb and the teabagger label were first used by the tea partiers, themselves. There's the famous sign "Teabag liberal Dems before they teabag you."


That's a lie and you know it. It was first used on CNN. Some idiot commenter and Wolf Blitzer were chortling over it.

Here is a Google search of the Snopes.com web site for the text string "Fox News".

Again, I don't expect hundreds of facts and examples of Fox News deliberately reporting falsehoods to their gullible listeners to sway any conservatives who are deeply committed to their views. They need to believe Fox News.

The reason people comment on the misspellings and grammatical mistakes in protesters' signs is because there are so many of them.

I doubt it.

The tea bagger crowd evidently thinks any form of government assistance is leading us down the path to full out Marxism or socialism, and it's patently ridiculous.

His desire to bring as much as a third of the economy under government control with nomianl private ownership is the classic textbook definition of National Socialism.

...as well as a peacenik)

He's the one on record as being "uncomfortable" with the idea of Japan surrendering to the Allies on the quarter deck of the USS Missouri. He also promised us he would leave Iraq (well...).

Or that this health care bill, which relies on the private (pirate) sector insurers is a "government takeover."

The Zero is on record (and videotape) saying his ultimate goal is single payer (i.e., government control) health insurance. And didn't a bill adding the public option, widely regarded as the first step to that, get introduced as one of the "fixes" to ZeroCare?

Or that the government is the enemy of the American people ...

Does the use of the punchline, "We're from the government and we're here to help", among the overwhelming majority of the American people ring a bell?

...and the corporations are our saviors.

OK, first, nobody views aid to veterans as socialism. It's viewed as a debt owed to men and women for their service.

Second, most people do not need Medical Assistance. It's only for people who can't pay any of their medical bills, the welfare form of Medicare.

Third, as a veteran, he may not need Medicare. Veterans' benefits may do the job for all he needs.

One problem that nobody wants to address is that, as the younger generations object to paying for Social Security and Medicare because they know it won't exist for them, socialism, and that's what it is whether everybody who uses it is a hypocrite or not, is going to be under increasing attack.

Whatever, let them have their fun. Making fun of perceived stupidity on the other side is a time honored tradition for those who want to avoid the substance of the argument (fine for a break, but, when continuous, shows that one has no substance).


The problem with letting it go is that the Progressive Jews and the non-Jewish Left then control the language. Just as theoreticians like Herbert Marcuse
That is a permanent power shift.
If one faction of Americans can say:
"Stupid pasty-white supremacist inbred backwoods blue-eyed Southern teabaggers, of overprivilege in all good jobs so far" with impunity, socially, on TV, in front of children" letting it go signifies that it is an acceptable and legitimate thing to say.
But the drill is that similarly vile words directed at the Other side are evil, intolerable, and All Sides must immediately come forth and Apologize! Apologize! for "Offending minorities of race, sexual identity, gender". And we must all support the firing or other punishment of those that say "hate speech, or just unacceptable things."

Imagine the reaction if someone in media or office said "Stupid, on the down-low, fat-lipped nappy-haired inbred product of three generations of welfare mommas black guy"?

Why the only question would be when the denuciation chorus and job termination would be faster than the death threats and the "official investigation"? On how anyone who said that was ever admitted to college, allowed to have a job..and if there are any "criminal sanctions" on top of civil lawsuits for the hurt minority to lodge..

Imus says nappy-headed Hoes "jokingly" and a coalition of perpetually outraged blacks, sponsors who follow PC, ernest liberals, and progressive Jews in CBS management all agree he should be fired immediately.

Anderson Cooper, a closeted dicksmoker, goes on TV multiple times talking about ill-educated, stupid white teabaggers living in trailers and absolutely nothing like what hit Imus happens. So Anderson Cooper and Bill Mahre and others feel free to say "stupid almost all-white, racist, violent teabaggers" just about every other show.
They can get away with it - and liberal Moms then begin to teach their kids about "evil white teabaggers"

.............Which brings up Chase...

I think the situation of 30-40 years of one-sided, Alinskyite incivility is collapsing into mutual incivility as America declines.

Say what you will, but what he called - "The Cunt and her daughter" while explaining what Mommy really meant by teabagging..may just lead to a cessation of Mommy using teabagging as an acceptable word to teach the 11-year old.
"Is calling a stranger a ball-sucker as bad as using the bad word for vagina, Mommy?"

And of course both sides adopting the confrontational language established by Progressive Jewish polemicists like Alinsky, Neuer, Chomsky and Herbert Marcuse and certain trendy Gentile Hard Left means the social fragmentation will accelerate. We have trend now where younger people aren't dating or forming relationships with others outside their ideology.

Besides the communist, post-communist, and socialist radicals who use nasty words and insinuations for the grand strategies Alinsky and Marcuse envisioned changing America through it's discourse and intolerance of the "oppressors" speech - many on the Left and many normal everyday liberal Jews and blacks now use vile words because it is tribally reinforcing and feels good to demonize the other.

Chase using the words dumb cunt, and explaining what Mommy meant by teabagging was effective, But it also SIGNIFICANTLY lessened the chances Chase and "Mommy" will ever socially interact again, but less civilly debate their political differences. Extremists have won the day, making some wedge into oppositional camps insult words completely acceptable. Now others of a different ideological stripe have said "OK, now we play by your rules!" An ominous sign is leaders like Dick Armey telling right wingers to: "Read Alinsky and Marcuse. Study their tactics for destruction of the Establishment. Employ them, while keeping within the law."
So we have started to see the Right devolve into the speech and tactics of the hard left.

"Tell us about the illegitimate bastard in the White House who is a secret Muslim who wants to murder white elderly with his Obamacare. When he is not murdering innocent Afganis w/o trial with Hellfire missiles."

Open discussions on how meetings of notable leftists, ACLU, leftist foundations and key Leftist speakers might be disrupted, and speech shut down.

The banner of Obama as Joker with the words Socialism underneath was another tribal warfare warning shot. That caused the smirking Anderson Cooper considerable consternation on the "utter meaness, the subtle racist undertones of it".

It is really too bad because the balance of the commentators tend to stay on the well chosen topics and debate them with good cheer, reasoned arguments and well written ripostes. The quality of the commentary by two or three of these foul mouthed "progressives" is tiresome.

Only 13% of of American voters say they are part of the Tea Party movement.

But they hold a favourable rating, as compared to both Republicans or Democrats....
Membership is not voting strength.

You might profitably read teh article, it doesn't necessarily say what you think it does....

Again I'm only a racist, retard but I did understand the that point, again the voting public is only 13% Tea Party, but the MOVEMENT has good favourble ratings, amongst voters.

Or they just enjoy tormenting people that clearly hate, hate, HATE being called a teabagger. The same people using the term teabagger are constantly called commies, traitors, fascists, etc, by teabaggers, so you might guess it's sometimes irresistible to use it. Also, "teabagging" can just as easily be deployed on the opposite sex as well, so it can't be a strictly homophobic term.

Michael - You've really got something stuck in your craw about people who refer to tea baggers...as tea baggers. And why do you continue to talk about "homophobes?" I guarantee you that there are women who handle the task just as well as men.

Here's the definition your friends forgot to look up:

The act of tea bagging a person while their face remains perpendicular to the floor. The one performing the tea bag must be nude in the lower region, get a running start and fly crotch first at another person's face. The key is good aim along with excellent timing, because it must happen when the victim has their mouth open and is unsuspecting.

*There's no mention of both parties being men.

Once again: the tea bagger crowd chose the name; a name that can obviously mean something they should have known before they elected to name their organization (if you want to call these fools organized) without doing their homework (home schooling perhaps?)

Quit whining and shave your testicles.

It just goes to show you that no matter how low you start, in America you can rise above it and look down upon those still confused and try to lift them up if they want to get out from under the balls of government.

Michael "The more I read by the homophobic liberal commentators the more I am convinced that they are products of very unhappy homes and very poor public school educations."

"The reasoning skills of this cohort were clearly not honed by demanding or well educated teachers and parents."

You think people who illustrate the fact that they're ignorant, bigoted and racist...carrying signs calling our own President the "N-Word" or denying he's an American citizen or saying he's not a Christian...to have proper "reasoning skills" and are "well educated??"

"It is really too bad because the balance of the commentators tend to stay on the well chosen topics and debate them with good cheer, reasoned arguments and well written ripostes."

Cedarford म्हणाले...

I had no idea about the power of the JEWS. Why has no one before Cedarford warned us of this? We got to do something about it, now! Who's with me? Lets get em!


The Russian middle class was not snickering about their power in 1920.

The Bolsheviks proved the power of a small disciplined group to manipulate and supress the "cattle".
That the Jews were ousted from primacy by Stalin who wanted to make Communism more local, less cosmopolitan and less Jewish (by 1925) likely hurt. But Stalin rather liked their ideas, their means of organizing and using state terror to maintain a wise, iron grip on the guidance of the proletariate. So the original Jewish Bolsheviks and the Menshiviks they folded in at least had the consolation of knowing that Stalin liked their approach. He also kept many Jews in high positions, many in his inner circle, many in leadership of state terror apparatus. Stalin's anti-Semitism was a myth until he turned on them circa 1952.

Same sorta thing happened in the 60s when blacks tossed Jews out of being the bosses of black unions, the NAACP, the local judges, prosecutors, heads of school boards and ownership of most stores blacks patronized, the Democrat party bosses in all black districts, and so on. Amidst much rancor - as Jewish socialists and communists warned black activists that they had not "evolved" yet to the point where they could competently self-rule themselves. And blacks responded, "get out".

The history books say that that 60s purge of blacks of Jews controlling significant aspects of the black community still has left a residue of ill will between the two groups today, though they ideologically agree on most matters outside Israel. It was all about who had the power over blacks.

Do you consider that some kind of straw man argument?

How about when Glenn Beck, a God to the tea bag crowd, says a man who has a white mother is a racist and hates whites?

Straw man argument?

russell म्हणाले...

"So many falsehoods, so little time"

OK let's take a look.

"The reason people comment on the misspellings and grammatical mistakes in protesters' signs is because there are so many of them.

As compared to what? Please give us your mathematical/statistical basis for your claim."

Compared to all of the other printed statements that appear in public on any given day.

The mathematical basis of my claim is the Flickr spread Althouse links to. A little over 120 examples of general lack of English skill. As compared to a lot less than that in pretty much any other public display I can think of.

So yeah, so many of them.

"The reason people talk about protesters being white is because the overwhelming majority of them are white.

As is America...are the rallies ALL white, mostly white and how does that compare tot eh racial/sexual distribution of the populace as a whole, or likely voters. Again, show us your work, for credit."

The US population is about 80% white. If you break Hispanics out of that, it's about 65% white.

So if the protesters were a representative slice of America, I'd expect to see about 2/3 non-Hispanic whites.

I see something more like 90-95% white, and I'm being generous.

So, overwhelmingly white.

"The reason people call the protesters "teabaggers" is because that is the name they have given themselves.

Uh no, we were just in the process of refuting/discussing that claim...a simple assertion is not proof."

Sorry, you lose. For example:

http://people.ischool.berkeley.edu/~nunberg/WOTY09.html

Look, if folks are unhappy about the bill, and they want to protest, more power to them.

But they're mostly white, and a hell of a lot of them have forgotten anything they might have learned in English class.

You can blame "the liberals" for picking on them, but a lot of the responsibility for their reputation as dumb white people belongs to them.

"Feedom doesn't come free". The dude holds a sign with four words on it. Some version of the word "free" appears twice. Two out of four words. He spells it correctly once, and incorrectly once.

That's not stupidity or ignorance, the guy just doesn't give enough of a crap to do it right.

If he doesn't give a crap, why should I?

If you don't want to seem dumb, don't act dumb.

I'll say it again, when the left resorts to the teabagger-racist retort you know you've won the debate.

Sorry liberals but calling me a racist as the same effect as calling me a poopy face.

Now tell me what in the world does the single payer system have to do with this insane "death panel" garbage?

Do you even know what a single payer system is?

Single payer health care systems have been highly effective for years in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom...and oh...right here in America via Medicare.

Are you aware of any "death panels" in any of those countries or here?

Can you provide any articles or evidence of anything of the kind?

It's just a single insurance pool, (with individual/corporate/government contributions) that spreads out the cost of everybody's insurance across the board. One source collects the fees, one source pays the bills.

I called on doctors and hospitals for years and never once heard a doctor, nurse or administrator not endorse sing payer as the best solution to national health care.

Michael म्हणाले...

Here's how. The term is a homophobic epithet. That is how it relates to homophobia. Imagine if all the protesters were called the N word but some of the protesters were white. The N word would still be racist. Get your mind around that. If you can.

But keep using a vulgar homophobic sexual term that describes people exercising their right to protest the Government. It reveals much.

Garage, I know that you have a child with a chronic condition. Have you ever worked closely with a person who has a chronic condition and VA care? I worked in disability, and part of my job was to sort through the med. records of the disabled and give them some support and help. There was simply no comparison between those receiving private care and VA. VA patients saw a different doctor every time, were rushed in and out, and were treated like animals.

VA does a good job at simple things, like a broken bone or the flu. It is miserable for patients who have complex, ongoing issues.

There's not a person here or on any blog that doesn't periodically misspell a word or create an inadvertent typo...even "The Queen" has done it on occasion.

I think you're giving our friend with the "feedom" sign more credit than he deserves. Especially since the sentence doesn't really scan giving the word the meaning you want to give it.

And, he's just one of many examples.

And yes, for the record, I have an adequately large set of balls.

Look, let me break it down for you another way.

Imagine you want to tell me something, something very important, and you want me to take you seriously.

But when you come to talk to me, you have a big string of snot hanging out of your nose. Or a big trail of toilet paper stuck to the bottom of your shoe.

When you talk to me, I'm not really going to hear you. I'm going to be distracted by the big string of snot, or the big trail of toilet paper.

And if you approach some of the less charitable among us that way, some of them will not only not take you seriously, they will make fun of you.

Maybe it shouldn't be that way. Maybe we should all just see through stuff like that and not let it get in the way.

But it does.

If you want to talk to someone and have them take you seriously, first wipe your nose, or take the big toilet paper streamer off of your shoe.

Or, make sure the words on the freaking sign you carry are spelled correctly.

Or not, as you wish.

But if you don't, you have no place blaming other folks for not taking you seriously.

Take responsibility for your own behavior. Isn't that a strong conservative principle?

If you want people to take you seriously, be serious. Make a tiny effort to do simple things correctly. If you can't go that far, I'm not going to take you seriously.

And the fault for that will lie with you, not me.

So you're claim is that because you saw 120 signs mis-spelled you'd claim that Tea Party folks can't spell....

What's your base-line for comparison?

That's my point? Go to ZombieTime, count up the mis-spellings in the Anti-War crowd and get back to me.

So NO, you DON'T have an argument....seeing 120 mis-spelling without any reference tot he total population of signs says little.






I see something more like 90-95% white, and I'm being generous.


Sadly your problem is based on "what you (want to) see."

Demographics show the Tea Party is about 12% non-white.

So we refute, right there, your claim of 90-95%...now that makes it whiter than "average" America, but I don't know if it makes it whitre than average VOTING America.....

A tea bagger's take on how the term "tea bagger" is h-o-m-p-h-o-b-i-c:

Michael - "Here's how. The term is a homophobic epithet. That is how it relates to homophobia."

No it isn't.

It just happens to be a term that refers to dropping testicles into a mouth (man or woman)...sometimes evidently with a running start, although that sounds dangerous...and there's nothing in that statement reflecting anything "homophobic."

If someone says they're going to stick their dick into someone's mouth...would you consider that to be a "homophobic epithet?"

I realize most married men can only dream of times gone past, but...women do actually allow penises to enter their mouths on occasion. (Booze or nice gifts usually plays an important part.)

And when you say: "Imagine if all the protesters were called the N word but some of the protesters were white. The N word would still be racist."

Only the blacks would consider it to be racist. The whites would consider it ridiculous. (At least the ones who even know what it means or how to spell it.)

And: "But keep using a vulgar homophobic sexual term that describes people exercising their right to protest the Government. It reveals much."

THEY picked the term, fool. Nobody (unless it was one hell of a joke via a liberal) called up this band of wing nuts and tell them they should consider using a term depicting a ball-dropping as their fucking moniker.

You're confusing making fun of these idiot's choice of their "team" name with homophobia.

And that just ain't the case, Dude.

Oh, and if they want to protest...tell 'em to vote like the rest of us.

A friend of mine is an actor and is a member of several casting networks.Many of the projects looking for actors are student films. The breakdown for almost every male character over 40 and Caucasian runs pretty much as follows...

"Mr.Philips...Late 50s, ex-military...aggressive , angry, racist.."

"Bartender Mike....Mid-40s , heavyset...angry, bitter , picks fight with black customer.."

"Travis...short crew-cut, former Marine in his 50s...hates gays and Latinos.."

"Rev. Hopkirk 40 - 50...fundamentalist Christian preacher who beats his daughter ..."

"Gary..drug addict and Militia member...in early 40s...ex-Military type ...racist and misogynist.."

So the future Hollywood directors and screenwriters have a clear vision of what they believe most middle-aged white males are all about. In two years worth of roles and scripts my friend hasn't seen a single white ex-US Military member portrayed in a friendly, good-guy role. What is going on out there?

Hmmm. It's not like there's EVER been a misspelling on a LIBERAL sign...No, no, not ever. Not possible from our intellectual elite, from our betters, our rulers! *genuflecting*

But what strikes me here is that the Liberals complaining that half the country are evidently ignorant, uneducated illiterates is that they are admitting that the very liberal, liberal-designed and liberal-controlled education system has failed to teach the basics.

Should we bring up the Democrat Congresscritter who is afraid that Guam will tip over if too many people board the island? I hope it's got lifeboats!
