Yep–thanks to the new super-secret Obama technology, ALL Teabagger calls are automatically flagged with the special “ASSHAT” tag. Recipient phone systems recognize the Teabag Tag and shunt those calls directly to the overflowing cesspit voicemail.

I heard this from someone on TEEVEE, so it must be true!

Maybe these brilliant patriots just need another bag of cheetos and a nice bedtime story — I hear tell “My Pet Goat” works a treat.

Senators who don’t listen to their constituents don’t get re-elected. Mary Landrieu may dig her own electoral grave. As will Ben Nelson. As will Blanche Lincoln if she fails to stop this Obamination.

Funny enough that–polling for the last several months has shown that the constituents of these three senators all want the healthcare overhaul bills to go ahead with strong public options.
The only abomination here are the right-wing pants-pissing racist fruitcakes like yourself who seem to think that just because you want something, everybody else must want it too. The fact that the vast majority of you people are too stupid to see what is happening to you right in front of you–in fact to cheer it on, only makes it all the more entertaining to reality-based persons like me when you don’t get your way.
Keep posting, bladder-brains, and say what we all know you’re just dying to say. At least have the courage of your convictions.

I know it’s been said before, but, teabaggin’ really sucks when nobody realizes how hard you work at licking those Congressional wienies. You can only swallow so much and take it on the chin so many times. Eventually you say “blow ME” cuz you’re tired of stroking those tools in Congress and getting no action in return. It’s enough to make a teabagger gag…

Silly soonergrunt! You and your elections and polls and other complicated stuff. America will not be refounded until members of congress do exactly what the eight people screaming out

Whoops, cat jumped on the keyboard and messed up my last attempt at snark. I’ll just say to stubborngeezer keep refounding, retreading, and releasing to photos of bachman, bible spice et al. We’ll just keep running things trying to rehab and re-do all your fuckups. Oh yeah, and re-electing.

ReHatmandu

Gee…you call and rant and rave and make veiled threats, and then you wonder why they don’t want to talk to you anymore?

I sense poor socialization skills.

Right–they say they want to eliminate government and take guns to rallies, threaten to burn government officials in effigy, and storm offices violently. Then they wonder why government officials are avoiding them and not listening to them.

They don’t seem to notice that the only time they’re trotted out is when one of Dick Armey’s clients want something from Congress.

If I recall my early American history correctly, these ‘redcoats’ were the people that we kicked out of our country back in 1770′s…why do these people hate America so much that they’d dress like British occupiers?

Oh horseshit! Republican Senators that don’t listen to their Corporate Masters don’t get re-elected. And to second soonergrunt, keep voting against your own best interests. It shows what a smarty pants you are, even if those smarty pants are Depend-lined (or redepend-lined in your case).

I’d like to know where the idea comes from that stupid putzes like stubbornestgeezer feel they have a line item veto on legislation. If it doesn’t fit their narrow wants/minds then it’s a crime for it to happen.

Is this somewhere in that KKKonstitution of yours, geez?

Meanwhile, real crimes that I had no line item veto on continue to go on and on and on. The are the same crimes that the teabaggers cheered on and defended by calling us sane folks treasonous and traitors.

That kind of stupidity has got to hurt a lot.

lunatic fringe who keep calling them up late at night and screaming stuff about the Federalist Papers.

My mommy always said there were no monsters – no real ones – but there are.

From a social science perspective, it would be interesting to evaluate the tea bagger movement for incidence of personality disorder and pervasive developmental delay (I’m serious here–no jokes about ASSperger’s). The fact that they are driven to threats and bullying and then fight amongst themselves indicates that a certain personality type with immature problem solving skills and limited ability to process detailed information is particularly attracted to this movement (e.g. protested tax reform that actually benefited most of them and seem to be unaware that their ‘grassroots’ movement is almost entirely a corporate funded lobbying scheme). Has there been another time in our history when a major political party exploited and agitated clearly troubled individuals in such a egregious fashion just to win a few seats?

Next thing you know they will be demanding that Senators and Representatives have to follow the dictates of the crazy homeless people ranting on the street corners. Oh, hold it, that is what they are already doing.

That kind of stupidity has got to hurt a lot.

But I don’t think it would hurt that much. The same disease process or congenital defect that afflicts the average teabagger’s cognitive skills appears to degrade their pain perception as well.
In essence, they’re too damn stupid to realize how painfully stupid they really are because not only are they immune to knowledge, but to pain as well.

Just heard Senator Alexander refer to medicaid as a “medical ghetto” that no one would want to end up in. Nice touch by the Senator from Tennessee, that is also the birth state of Nathan Bedford Forrest.

“I sense poor socialization skills.”

Spotts for the Win!

Greetings, stubbornestgeezer! Did you once post here at FDL as ‘Grumpy’? I ask because the tone in writing seems similar. If you are one and the same, please read below for some unfinished discussion regarding what is commonly referred to as the “Franken Amendment”.

On topic for this post – I second soonergrunt’s reply (#-4), and would only add that, in an honest discussion, one is entitled to one’s own opinions, but not one’s own facts.
__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __

stubbornestgeezer, if you are the same person that posted as Grumpy in this October TBogg post, I wish to thank you for replying (our exchange was at the end of comments, #30-33). I had given up waiting for a response, and am sorry comments there are now closed (and no one would be reading there any more in any case).

So was it your contention in that post that Franken’s Amendment should be scrapped – even if it would plug up a serious flaw in existing law – because it might create new areas of legal uncertainty, possibly resulting in a flurry of more lawsuits being filed? If so, can you think of any examples of past legislation enacted to rectify significant and serious wrongs – in the area of civil rights or otherwise – that has not had this side effect, and that could in fact be used as a model to improve Franken’s amendment without gutting its intent?*

*[If your objection to Franken's amendment is based on an opinion that no corrective action is required, then our disagreement is too profound, and I don't think we would have anything further to discuss.]

May I respond for stubbornestgeezer/grumpy/toddpalin?

puzzthzzzzzitttttzzz, puzzuuzzzzzzittttzzzzz *

* last 2 synapses done gone up in smoke

Heh, your response might be the most appropriate. However, I retain a trace of optimism – unjustifiable though it may be – that I will get some rational response from one of these folks some day.
[Hey, I gotta let my rarely seen hopey-changey sunny side out for exercise sometime!]

Trolls trolling trolls in my tbogg?

Golly, a kid’s gotta dream!

You’d probably have to go all the way back to the Know Nothings to find a similar situation. Hopefully these folks will have about as much success as they did in terms of electing people.

My local paper reports that there is a massive pumpkin-for-pumpkin-pie shortage due to weather issues, but, obviously, us Oregon folks are largely responsible for said shortage, us being a major player in pumpkins (that’s what liberals do). I’ve called my representatives to express my amazement. Pete DeFazio, my Congressional Rep, who I last talked to IN PERSON last month, was unavailable for comment. WTF?

I’m with you oldgeezer, if ObamaAfrican can’t solve a pie issue, how the fuck can he run this country?

Palin-DoughyPantload-2012!

Hey, don’t be taking credit for the pumpkin shortage. We in Illinois are responsible, dammit. Only fitting as the home state of the evil Obama.

Is there a creature on Earth that complains and whines more than a Republican? I think not.

I mean literally, every single time I’ve seen Samuel the Wurzelbacher or the Quitta from Wasilla speak about anything, two losers who can completely control the public discourse at will with the help of the BigMedia enablers, they’re whining about how they’re victims of some such thing.

Of course they know this, and that’s why years ago Repubs and BigMedia started projecting these negative traits onto Libruls, and they’ve basically succeeded in establishing this false and hypocritical talking point in the general consciousness. Thus, we must constantly mock them. It’s our only hope.

Thus, we must constantly mock them. It’s our only hope.

It won’t make any difference.

Oh sure, you fancy Illinois-ans, with your fancy imported exotic President want to take credit for everything, good or bad.

Can’t we Oregonians just have a plain, simple squash-type-thing to claim as our own weapon-of-total-collapse-of-the-world?

What doesn’t ObamaSizzle own?

Huh? What?

Us poor pumpkin farmers are revolting! No teabags for us. Pumpkinbags is what we got, also!

You and ObamaBowingToCrazyOrientals don’t own the PumpkinBaggers (yet)!

It’s gonna take a stiff Romney-esk chin to take a good PumpkinBaggin! In fact, if you can’t take a hard kick to the pumpkinbag then you’re not the type of patriot we require in PumpkinSquadUSA….

USA! USA!

yeah, so there, also…

This fake pumpkin shortage is just part of the government plot to force us all to eat acorn pies on Thanksgiving.

It’s shocking to me that congressional staffers won’t take the time to listen to these people’s very real complaints about how their liberal neighbor’s Volvo made their septic tank back up and that ACORN has planted an invisible camera in their mailbox that reads all of their mail and why doesn’t Congress just impeach Obama and put him jail because he’s not an American citizen anyway – he’s a Kenyan citizen and it’s a damned dirty shame that the CIA made Hellman’s change the recipe for their mayonnaise so that now it tastes funny and and Nancy Pelosi is gonna’ sell all of the National Parks to the goddamned Chinese to pay for mandatory abortions for all white women and why doesn’t Rush Limbaugh get money from the government to do his broadcasts when all of those stinking faggots who call themselves artists get money from the government to do their so-called art when all it is is a liberal conspiracy to turn our kids into a bunch of jizz-licking homos and…

I hope that doesn’t mean we have to stop?

Compared to what they’re actually peddling, most of that sounds plausible.

I hope that doesn’t mean we have to stop?

Did LT Ripley stop? Or Corporal Hicks? I think not/ But we may have to blast off and mock them from orbit — only way to be sure. :-)

WOW!!!!!

I’ve wondered around the “comments” sections of a “few” sites (and HemlockForLiberals still owes me a GOOD FUCKING GROVELLING for him being SO FUCKING WRONG——see last fall’s “Jesus General” exchange, also, thank you very much) but, WOW,I do believe you have this one nailed down.

My office “person” asked if I’d like to have “the same” on my business cards or if there were any “changes” needed for the next print run. May I, humbly, apply your words to my card?

Cheers!

…was just tossin’ the cat outside for the nite and noticed my porch-pumpkin was gone. there was a big ol’ pile of acorns there in the porch-pumpkin-place, and, well, they looked like acorns but tasted a bit like deer shit….

I have a friend who can only get aroused by dropping his nuts in a cup of boiling water.

It’s not my cup of tea.

Apparently the REAL Senators don’t agree with anything said subsequent to my post. They got it to the Floor but they still stagger and die trying to find 60 votes to agree on a bill. And if Harry tries to go nuclear, there is a deterrent under the rules which would prevent anything from coming back from conference. Just sayin’ ya know…

how about if you punch yourself in the nutsack every time your stupid projections don’t pan out?

He has a nutsack?

Gee, stubbornestjackass, you must be an Oregonian like ORMark and myself. Why? Because every day idiots just like you post endless fundie, conspiracy wingnut drivel on The Oregonian‘s website.

They’re all completely convinced they’re the majority, despite the fact that our state is almost always blue for the president and currently both senate seats are (progressive) Democrats, we have a Democratic majority in both houses of our state legislature and a Democrat gov (who, BTW, I don’t like that much and will be happy when Kitzhaber—a dem—is elected).

These idiots even convince themselves their rantings will be welcome here in Multnomah County, where MY congressman, Earl Blumenauer, wins relection with 83%+ of the vote.

DUDE!!! You lost, we won—all you have left are rantings and obstruction. The bill’s gonna pass and YOUR party’s going the way of the Whigs.

This one surely will not. Americans don’t want SOCIALIZED medicine and their doctors don’t either.

So you now speak for ALL Americans, as well? I’m an American, I support socialized medicine (and BTW, I have insurance), as does my cousin, an American and a doctor. Perhaps you’d do well to read my post, you fundies comprise maybe 20% of the US population. That’s quite a few million, but it isn’t ALL Americans, or even close ot a majority of them.

Funny, because the polling data shows that a clear and substantial majority do in fact support what you mislabel “socialized medicine.” Personally, I would love socialized medicine, like Canada and the UK, or socialized health insurance, like most of the civilized world, but nobody in Congress is proposing either.

Good luck in the Government Rationing lines. If you love it so much, YOU go to Canada or Britain. I’ll keep my Free Enterprise right here in the US of A. The polls are on our side. AND the logic is…Why should I pay for your health Care? I never will and most Americans won’t. You will see such civil disobedience the thing will collapse of its own weight. If it were to pass–which it won’t.

Polls are on your side? Try again loser! An overwhelming majority supports health care reform. As for civil disobedience, you aren’t even close to a majority, you’re merely loud and stupid.

BTW, not only do both Britain and Canada offer better healthcare (no rationing lines to be had, freak), but their people also enjoy far more civil liberties than we do here. But I suppose in your warped fundie brain, that means they’re actually slaves.

Apparently Orwell WAS correct, just 1984 is merely self-imposed by wingnuts upon themselves.

You are much more enjoyable as Grandpa Abe on The Simpsons, than you are here.
Please be funny here too.
Thank you.

Double wrong.

That’ll be two self-inflicted nutsack punches for you!

A friend’s young daughter said the most profound thing. I believe she was referring to you stubbornestgeezer.

You’re “butt crack stupid”!

The teabaggers begin to eat their young each other:
