[K8-EEE]

For which they wish to pay "zero."

Free lunch whiners.

2. Signs are the same color as all these "protesters"

[ColbertWatcher]

3. Not to mention what we can't see in the picture ...

... the police who provided security, the emergency personnel and the system to call them in case those cars collide due to any of the traffic lights malfunctioning, etc, etc ...

[radfringe]

9. add to that list

--the city/town workers who clean up after the "tea-bags" and keep streets clean
--the city/town workers who processed/issued the "tea-bag" protest permits
--water/sewer infrastructure so the "tea-baggers" have something to drink and somewhere to poop
--the public schools, which "edumacated" the tea-baggers and their kids (although judging from the "spellink" on some of the signs, some tea-baggers didn't do so well in "skool")

4. Cut taxes, not defense. Uhm, how do you expect to pay for the defense if you cut all the taxes?

[Hannah Bell]

5. That was my question, too - how does she think defense is funded, it's something like half of the

general budget.

[K8-EEE]

7. "Support the troops" unless it costs you MONEY, in which case then

well that's different.....but we can PRAY for the troops! That's FREE!

[Lasher]

8. She's a neocon.

To her federal spending is bad. Except when you spend as much on 'defense' as the entire rest of the world combined. Then it's good.

10. Has to be a set up

Nobody's that stupid... no... they can't be....can they?

[Drunken Irishman]

13. She looks kinda crazy, so I'm gonna go with yes, they can be that stupid.

[progressoid]

19. Oh yeah,

I had a "discussion" with a Ron Pauler that was pretty frightening.

Somehow we would magically lower taxes but it wouldn't affect defense spending. Or Social Security. Or Medicare for the elderly.

[Warren DeMontague]

12. You know, those Stealth Bombers are made of prayer, righteousness, anti-TEH GAY and Jesus cheese.

That's all privately funded.

[Nostalgic]

6. Spread this far and wide.

[Jeep789]

11. Yep, get off my sidewalk you freeloaders

Exactly what I will say should I run into any of these asshats.

[democracy1st]

14. CUT TAXES NOT DEFENSE...oh my and how does that brainiac choose to pay for defense LOL

[Juche]

26. That was my first thought

Living in a bubble of right wing misinformation makes people believe absurd shit.

[Kitty Herder]

30. I don't think they think it through that far.

Reactionaries tend to respond emotionally and not think any further about the issue.

[Lochloosa]

15. Why do they have to be so damn

ugly?

[Norrin Radd]

16. kr

[raccoon]

17. Not to mention MEDICARE. If there's one thing that really chaps me, it's somebody who's on Medicare

bitching about "socialism" or a national health plan.

[K8-EEE]

25. RIGHT???

I've seen all these tea parties of older people with the ZERO TAX FANTASY BS and it's like, OK we'll give you every dime of tax money you ever paid back with 20% interest, only, no medicare. Go find a private insurer to insure your old freeper ass. Guess what, you won't find one! And would be exactly ONE medical event -- even a moderate one, away from being totally wiped out financially.

Idiots and ingrates.

[Odin2005]

18. "CUT TAXES NOT DEFENSE" Now isn't that a whole truckload of STUPID.

Somebody tell that woman that you need taxes to pay for a military.

[Spike89]

22. Extra layer of cluelessness too

Despite efforts to confuse, the truth is that Obama's proposed defense budget is slightly HIGHER than Bush's last version and taxes for most of will be slightly LOWER this year. In other words, they are actually protesting having exactly what they want! Incredible!

21. Cut taxes not defence

yes we can do that,will you and your brainless pals serve for nothing,didn't think so,go piss up a rope you dope.

[Fireweed247]

23. I know these people seem like moronic hypocrites...but we need to see what unites US...

Don’t Fall For the Old Divide And Conquer Trick
The powers-that-be are trying to distract us from the looting of our wallets by the big banks by creating a left-versus-right, us-versus-them drama. You know, the old divide-and-conquer schtick.
Americans from across the political spectrum are furious at the financial elite who have robbed us blind, and their enablers in government.

28. Please, Obama's approval rating is 66%.

The other third doosn't necessarily disapprove, some have no opinion or idea. Only about 100,000 in the entire country were dumb enough to go to these teabagger events. So divide and conquer conspiracy theories seem a little far fetched.

[4_TN_TITANS]

24. too many to list...

How about the clean air, the airbags required in the car/safety regulations/liscense plate, building safety codes for the buildings, all around them and they can't see what their taxes have done.

idiots.

[Critters2]

27. Zero taxes? Seriesly?

How the hell do these people expect a nation to function? And how are we supposed to even have defense without taxes?

Honest to God. I have furniture smarter than these people!

[onethatcares]

29. the old broad in the front, with the zero taxes sign

think she's collecting social security or using medicare?

Nice pavers too.

[Postman]

31. How many of these nitwits are on Social Security? I'd guess at least 3 of them...

[Vinca]

32. This is a great picture. Recommend!

(Oh, noes . . . to late to rec.)

[hay rick]

33. ZERO TAXES

If lower taxes are always better than higher taxes then the logical goal should be no taxes at all. Any other outcome is settling for "higher taxes." Inspiring.

[proud2BlibKansan]

34. That's awesome
