Am I a bad person?
My Favorite Wingnut sent me this email:

"Got a call tonight from a national republican fund raiser. Told them NO. All my contributions are going to the Tea Party. They were really pissed off."

I emailed him gack: "Good for you!"

1. Not nearly good enough.
Encourage him to push for actual Tea Party candidates.

2. He already called the office of our teabagger Representative
Sean Duffy & ragged on him for going along with the debt ceiling bill, & he tells me he won't vote for anyone not endorsed by the TP.

4. Endorsed by the TP?
Does that endorsement have to come directly from Cornholio?

14. That's why I like those initials.
So much more dignified than just calling them asswipes.

3. Tell him he should go all in on Ron Paul - go big or go home.

5. I thought the funny part is
that you have a wingnut friend. But, at least you know how to play with him/her.

8. It will probably happen if the Republicans win next year and can't blame Democrats....
...on spending money any longer. When the tea party wing of the GOP pushes to eliminate Social Security and Medicare, the American people will raise the kind of hell that will dwarf the townhall meetings during the health care reform debate. This will cause non-tea party Republicans to back down, and the tea-baggers will want them purged from the Republican Party....and the bloodbath will begin.

9. Of course you're a bad person. That's why your posts are so popular.

10. I'd say yes, but he's going to pass that on.

You may have influenced hundreds of votes via the TB telephone tree, and that's going to help a LOT of people.

WTH, it's not as if you're ever going to be able to convince him to work for his (D) candidates, so you simply took the shortest route... toward his working against the (R) candidates.

Let that be a lesson to us all.

Fucking Brilliant.

12. Perhaps, not nearly bad enough, methinks. Job well done.

13. If that makes you a bad person then we all are.
That was puppy dog bad.
At best.
Or, worst I should say.
