>>There's no way to have a logical public discussion with the teabaggers. The best we can do is to mimic them. Show them a mirror and hopefully some will realize how ridiculous they actually are... Or maybe they won't even realize that they're being mocked, which could be even more awesome.
This brushed generalization (notwithstanding how "funny" it may be) from both sides of the political aisle is what's wrong with this country.
- ajkirwin 16y agoI'm sorry, but when it comes to the tea party, a collection of histrionics and hysteria, it's fairly accurate.
- markkat 16y agoI agree with you about the generalizations. However, I think injecting humor into the current political tension is really a powerful thing. I don't agree with name-calling, but it might do us all some good to take ourselves a bit less seriously. To me, the most interesting aspect of this rally, will be to see how the MSM deals with so many making light of issues that supposedly divide the country.
- eli 16y agoI really miss Billionaires for Bush. Clever satire beats name calling any day.
- caseysoftware 16y agoYeah, he seems to miss that insulting someone before you even talk to them is not a winning strategy. Unfortunately, that passes as rational discourse at this point.
- initself 16y agoIf you listen to the irrational speech that comes out of the mouths of teabaggers on a daily basis via all forms of media, you'll find that the phenomenon of ignorance is real.
- jacoblyles 16y agoGod forbid a grass roots collection of people mobilize to advocate for causes they believe in (if they're from the "wrong part" of the country). What could be more unAmerican than that? We obviously need to come up with sexually derogatory names to mock these people.
