The two basic rules of teabagism
1. Always fear the worse.

2. Obama is responsible for whatever's wrong.

Why the hell these people bother to get up out of bed in the morning is a mystery to me.

I guess blind, stupid hatred must be a great motivator.

1. Copying the rules for being a self-proclaimed "true progressive" isn't funny.

2. It's a little more simple than that, actually
1. Disengage brain.
2. Engage mouth in overdrive.

The problem with the baggers isn't their anger, they have a perfect right to be that angry. I'm that angry, too.

The problem is that they don't use that lump between their ears for anything but making sure the top of their heads don't go concave. They are just too ignorant and lazy to connect the dots to who is really responsible for their anger. Thus they're suckers for demagogues. Since the far right bought up our media, those are Republican demagogues.

9. You forgot the third part in that logical equation
3. Obama is the worst.

Then they could all agree that if a=b, and b=c, then a=c -- Obama is the worst.

:hi:
