"A federal government that regards two perverted homos as a genuine married husband-and-wife is a federal government I view as without any legitimacy. Ill happily see the country burn to the ground first. And Id even do my best to lend the matches to get it started."

This was posted after the OK marriage equality ruling. But on any issue be it electing a black president, an increasingly secular population or the role of women. The country no longer looks and thinks like their 1950's mind thinks it should so let's just burn the sucker to the ground. They are out to destroy the social contract we've had in this country, because we want to more fully include racial minorities, gays and non-Christians. Mind you these people call themselves patriots.
All their frothing about "liberty" and "freedom" from government is nothing more trying to find a excuse to have people they do not like fully recognized. They're sure as hell not conservative, when you think about it they're really a twisted branch of anarchism, because they so do want share resources with anyone that doesn't look and think like them, they want government completely gone.

(53,031 posts)not coming on time. Teabaggers are first and foremost selfish hypocrites. They take government dole through SS, disability, farm subsidies, and government contracts and claim they are entitled to those funds, while denouncing others receiving the same money as moochers. They have no awareness of what complete hypocrites they are.
