My response from a real Tea Partier. LOVE IT !
Edited on Thu Jul-08-10 11:27 AM by RBInMaine
Yesterday I sent an email to some Tea Partiers. One thing my email did was offer a list of government programs and services at all levels from the VA to local schools and colleges and asked which of these "socialist" programs the Tea Partiers would be willing to give up. I also had several other questions for them, such as why the Tea Party started only after Obama became President. Here is one of my responses just as written by the Tea Partier. (I like the grammar errors. :-) Gotta love it! If we can't smash down these kooks in November, shame on us. EVERY progressive and Democrat needs to come out and bash these nutcases down hard, especially at the polls. Below his response is my response to him. Enjoy that too.

The Teapartier: "Speaking as a disabled veteran. I will do everything I can to avoid going to the VA hospital, because it is government run health care.

To rest of your list i agree fully, and had the 16th amendment under Woodrow Wilson a democrat not been passed giving the federal government license to pick our pockets by income tax and allowing to grow into the monster it is today. I personally fought against medicare part d as well as the patriot act as they are both infringements on personal liberties.

As far as the war goes maybe you have forgotten the towers falling I certainly haven't. The main flaw in our approach is that we tried bring civility to war. To keep a good guy image. We should have waged an all out war. So that the people of the Arab nations were more afraid of us than the terrorists.

And I couldn't care less about Mr. Obama's skin color. I certainly wouldn't call socialist. He has nationalized the banking industry, automotive industry, and the health care system. He is by definition a Fascist. That is the reason we oppose Mr. Obama."


My Response To The Tea Partier:

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your response. You have fully illustrated the Tea Partier mindset: one of radical right wing ignorance and extremism bordering on utter insanity. I will pray that you receive the mental health treatment you obviously require.

1. Why bother
So you called him some names. Is that the best you can do? You know what they say about arguing on the internet...

2. I received some other responses too and answered those more fully. But this nut deserved exactly
what I said.

3. That's great
I just don't really think it's front-page MUST READ material.

5. OK. I took out "Must Read." But how often do we get it "straight from the whacko's mouth"? THESE

nuts and THEIR candidates with THEIR agenda or sanity with Dems is our choice in November. If we ATTACK these nuts as the nuts they are, we can motivate Dems and mods. I for one will not allow these crazies and their RePUKE allies to take control of this country.

4. Why so rude?
Unnecessary. BTW, both of your posts just kicked the OP back to the top. Being sarcastic is helping the thread you object to.

:rofl:

6. Because evangelizing someone like this person is a useless activity.
Have you ever changed someone's mind? Ever done it over the Internet? Here's guessing that if you have, that person wasn't nearly as radical as the person in the example above.

7. The point was exposing them for what they really are, not trying to change minds. We need to attack
these wingnuts at every turn. Don't you understand that? You win by ATTACKING, and we have MOUNTAINS of ammunition to use against these nutcases.

9. I'm confused - I thought I was backing you up.
I'm agreeing that exposing them was the only real objective here, and to go beyond the so-called "name calling" (and I wouldn't really call it that) would be utterly useless.

10. I tell you one thing he is full of bullshit
you can not tell me if he gets sick and needs to go to the hospital he won't go to the VA. And that he doesn't want social security and medicare. He is lying thru his teeth, and just because he says he is a veteran doesn't mean it is so. You can not trust one, not one, of those tea bags. Why--- because if they were any where near serious about the crap they spew they would have started protesting the Bush administration right after he invaded the WRONG COUNTRY who he said was responsible for the attack on this country. Following tea bags train of thought, Bush should have went after Saudi Arabia, after all the terrorist in the planes all came from there.
