It's all unraveling and people are starting to see what a bad deal this was.
ReplyDeleteBy the way those rallies were before the bill unraveled.
Teabaggers don't hate government they just hate too much of it and the policies of this one.
lisa,
ReplyDeleteThe last Harris, Gallup, and USA Today polls all show a movement toward more people approving of the health care law.
It is the mad tea partiers who are unraveling--becoming violent--because they couldn't stop progress.
the teabagger mantra is they hate THIS Obama government, right lisa?

We don't really care what they think on Mars, you ignorant dolt. Down here in America, more and more people are in FAVOR of the legislation as they find out more about it.
Get your nose out of Limbaugh's taint for just a second and LEARN something.

ReplyDeleteOh, and you know, hundreds of thousands also stopped in DC to condemn the wars we're in. Somehow the MSM couldn't find any of THEM, but they always manage to find that gathering of 4 or 5 teaklanners with their misspelled signs.
ReplyDeletelisa, still on mars, sent in another one...
ReplyDeleteLet me get this straight......we've passed a health care plan written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it but exempts themselves from it,to be signed by a president that also is exempt from it and hasn't read it and who smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese and financed by a country that's broke.
What does the President smoking have to do with any of this, you miserable cretin? I'll bet your mom smoked while she was pregnant, didn't she? Probably drank a whole lot too.
As far as the country being broke.... why didn't you get on your monkey, before he turned President Clinton's deficit upside down and then wrecked the economy? There are few things I despise as much as I despise a hypocrite, if indeed there are any.
Now go put on your white sheet, and get that cross you bound those kerosene-soaked rags to. Darkness will be here soon, and you don't want to be late for your "social club" meeting.

ReplyDeleteReally lisa-that's all you've got?
Of course it is. Now run along like a good little girl and find out what Boortz wants you to hit me with next.
my troll FEEDS on attention, please ignore!
ReplyDeleteAh, this makes me feel good. And I just came away from TAO who has a very enlightening analysis of the screwed up mentality of the Buggers - backed up with stats and polls. A must read.

thanks L, I'll check it out!
ReplyDeleteWhew, for a minute there, I thought you let Ms. Inane-Broken-Record back over here.
ReplyDelete"7,813,682 petition signatures, 595,522 phonecalls, and 948,705 faxes"...I am proud to say that I was among each of these.
I am proud to say I was too JJ!
ReplyDeletelisa tried, poor thing. She'll learn one of these day, I hope...
lisa isn't going to learn; I've gone after her for probably years now, and it's always the same thing. Always.
ReplyDeleteStill.... she sharpens my teeth for when I encounter the Klanbaggers face to face.
sorry JR, I just had to delete her. I know you have fun but sometimes she just grates my nerves. I can't figure out why she is obsessed with this blog!
ReplyDeleteShe's been around for YEARS??? GREAT...
ReplyDeleteShe's been around for years? That's why she keeps repeating herself. She's senile!
ReplyDeleteMy name's not Lisa, so leave me alone blog administrator.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to know, when I'm sitting here all by myself and I get an email from moveon.org asking for a signature, that there are millions of people doing exactly the same thing.
sorry JR, I just had to delete her. I know you have fun but sometimes she just grates my nerves. I can't figure out why she is obsessed with this blog!
ReplyDeleteYou aren't "special," Sue. She's infested the blogs of quite a few of our compatriots, and I've attacked her on nearly every one of them. I was a little surprised to find her here when I looked it over that first time, but you know.... I shouldn't have been.
"Lisa's Thoughts," her completely blank blog, has been around a long time too. I will at least credit her with being truthful on her own blog; she's never posted a "thought" there, because she's never had one.
JR, I am too special!! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat is a nice thought Holte. I think we are pretty special don't you?
lisa -stuff it. We won both the election and HCR - get over it.
ReplyDeleteI notice that all off our signs are spelled correctly too!
Awwww, Sue. JR loves to feed the trolls. ;-)
ReplyDeleteNow that it has passed the most recent polls have approval nine points up on disapproval, despite the campaign of lies from the GOP noise machine.
Lisa G and TC, yup the polls are showing a bump, I hope it turns into a friggin mountain and the thugs fall off on the other side! lol
ReplyDeleteThe Republicans and bugger thugs are so stupid they don't understand that their rhetoric and behavior is turning off all Americans who are decent, law abiding and patriotic citizens.
ReplyDeleteTo demonstrate and protest is one thing. To use racial slurs and to throw bricks and to cut gas lines is unacceptable.
It's like they don't care L. They will do ANYTHING to steal back the power!

ReplyDeleteI notice that in many of the pictures posted the signs say "progress".
ReplyDeleteProgress sorta denotes movement. Movement implies direction.
Progress to what exactly? Where are we going, Sue? Do we know where, or are we just going to move without any destination in mind. Just one of the questions I always have.
@jolly...
ReplyDeletedisagree with the comment...but lol...limabugh's taint...really made me laugh. Seriously that was funny dude.
@Jolly regarding
ReplyDelete"Let me get this straight......we've passed a health care plan written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it"
I agree the smoking bit was stretching it, and you have a definite point about Dubya over spending.
For the record I was against his spending as well. Still, she sorta has a point about the rest, and just because Dubya started it does not give Obama license to accelerate to light speed. In his first year he did more to increase our debt that 8 yrs under Dubya.
Guys, Tea- Bagger is bad enough, now you gotta throw the Klan in there.
ReplyDeleteSad. Just sad. And offensive really. I am not a Klansman. I dont even know anyone who is. Never actually seen one in real life.
why am I automatically racist?
