Teabagger Nation blames liberals and teachers for the CT shootings.

[Archae]

It seems any and every nutcase far-righter is falling out of the woodwork nowadays to blame everyone except who IS to blame.

Then again, since it looks like the shooter and his Mom were far-rightists themselves, I can see why the far-right would blame everyone else...

Tea Party Nation head Judson Phillips sent out an email to members yesterday featuring an article by TPN member Timothy Birdnow attacking teachers over the school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut. He said that parents must “take away the power of the radicals in the classrooms” and lawmakers must introduce right to work laws to cripple teachers’ unions. He says liberals “destroyed the family” and encouraged the shooter to be “coddled all his life, given free rein to indulge his senses but not to face the responsibilities that freedom necessitates… He lived in a world of the Progressives making, not in reality.” Birdnow even suggests that President Obama will use the shooting to “to advance the cause of disarming the American People” and argue that people like George Zimmerman (!) should be guarding schools.

1. Wow. This is beyond reason, but so is much of the Tea Party thought process.

2. I'm gonna lose it

My wife and I watched 3 hours of this tonight....watching the pictures and stories of the lost go by.

And now on my 5th glass of wine to come down to this non-sense?

Teachers SAVED lives and GAVE their own lives you backward jackass. My friends, this is the vermin we deal with.

I told my wife tonight...if burying those 20 innocent children doesn't compel our nation to DO SOMETHING substantive with mental health and guns then we're moving the fuck out. We both have advanced degress...perhaps Canada or Germany or someone will hire me to do population research on endangered animals and my wife can work for some non profit. Whatever, I am getting sick to death of people like this. I'm losing my grip with it.

3. Good. Hope they keep it up...

Cause that's going to work out so well for them.

So YOU'LL teach us a lesson, eh? And kill us??
