If you really believed that you'd shut your trap and grin and wave bye bye as their sun sank in the west,but you don't believe it do you peanut.

I've thought prior teabagger signs were stupid or in poor taste, but co-opting an image of suffering like that for your parvanimous dip purposes is straight-up offensive. Whoever made that can go himself.

[Wild Cobra]

So who had that sign anyway?

Without a name and interview, how do we know it wasn't a liberal doing it just to make the event look bad?

Michele Bachman and Repugs organized the anti-health care demonstration.

RIF, there's a link

Duh...

No Sherlock.

I was saying someone could have done that as a sabotage. Does everything have to be spelled out? the assumption that it was a right winger could be true, but it could also be false. Without knowing the truth. To remark as if fact, is ingorant.

I'm not judging the event by the sign, I'm judging that worthless -heel carrying the sign. Besides, I told you I went to one of the tea-parties, didn't I? They didn't need a liberal conspiracy to make themselves look like boors then, I doubt they did this time, either. Think about it: this sign follows directly from the notion of a "death panel." It just happens to go way over the ing line.

I went to one as well. I took several pictures The only disrespectful people I ran into were liberals who crashed the event. I also ran into people posing as conservatives until they got a chance to talk to you.

WC is saying 1000s teabaggers, aka the New Repug Party, are fakes (not the Astro-turf flavor of fake), really liberals trying to make Repugs look bad (which is pretty easy).

So was the "The Italians adored Mussolini's policies until it was too late" sign a liberal secret agent, too? It isn't a different message than the one that pissed me off above, but it is stated a bit more gracefully.

As far as the tea party here... this isn't Portland, so there were no disrespectful collegiate lefties trying to punk anybody. Just about 15K white folks angry about nothing in particular.

[DarrinS]

Yeah, that sign was tasteless.

[Nbadan]

...don't forget the tea-baggers

[EmptyMan]

If you don't like the sign, do something about it.

[boutons_deux]

Viguerie says teabaggers now ARE the Repug party.

Super-wealthy elitist and hate-monger Limbaugh is the face and mouth of the party.

[Marcus Bryant]

The arbiter of Taste has spoken.

Speaking of taste..

Conservative Hero Mic e Bachmann's primary source is a conservative blog led by a guy who sends dog crap to Congressmen as a joke...

Michele Bachmann, explained
The Minnesota Republican reveals her sources of information, and suddenly everything's a little clearer
By Alex Koppelman

Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., is the conservative hero of the day for having organized a protest against Democratic healthcare reform proposals that's taking place on Capitol Hill Thursday. In preparation for that protest, she participated in a conference call with supporters and press on Wednesday night.

While on the call, she gave this rundown of where she gets the information she needs to do her job as a member of Congress:

The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning out of bed, I grab my cell phone and I look to RedState ... and I feel like I at least am kind of prepared to get out of bed, and then I go read the editorial page of Investors Business Daily or the Wall Street Journal for a wider background of knowledge for the day... I just find it is one of the most credible sources of information out there.

Yes, Bachmann's "wider background of knowledge" goes from the conservative blog RedState -- led by a guy whose idea of a brilliant political tactic is sending fake dog poop to a Democratic congressman -- to the WSJ's notoriously ideological editorial page and then to the IBD editorial page, which is sort of a poor man's WSJ for people completely uninterested in anything but a strict conservative line.

Speaking of taste..

This one isn't bad taste -- it's just stupid.

Very nice print.
