MY DAILY LUNACY FROM TEA PARTY EMAILS


I can hardly wait to get to my computer in the morning to open the hair-brained emails from the Tea Party. It is downright comical how these people talk down down to their denizens of warped ideology who haven't the slightest idea they are being hornswoggled. They are constantly asking for money, which should tip off even the dimmest of wits. But it doesn't. Here are some of their hilarious headlines:

I’m about to reveal something shocking to you.
We are in the gravest of situations.
URGENT ALERT FOR TEA PARTY PATRIOTS...
IT HAS BEGUN. Tea Party Uprising Is Spreading!
Something serious has happened and I need your help. I really thought long and hard but I have to share it with you.
I feel as if a jagged knife just ripped through my body and pierced my heart. This was like a punch to the gut that knocked the wind right out of me.
That last one sounds like it came right out of an Abbott and Costello comedy routine. and then they come up with the admonishments of armageddon:

Our military is crumbling.
Obama has your guns and ammo in his crosshairs.
They feature the clueless Donald Trump.
They feature Ted Cruz the insurrectionist.

I used to comment on their website and the reactions I got were the greatest collection of illiteracy I have ever experienced. But the highlight of Tea Party accomplishment recently is the election of Joni Ernst to the Senate in Iowa. You have to wonder if we are at the end.

I cant tell if they're trying to be funny or if they are serious.

6. "Warped," yes. But "Downright comical?" Hardly! I think it's downright dangerous.

For instance: Your quote "... Our military is crumbling.
Obama has your guns and ammo in his crosshairs. ...."

I think this is deliberately planned by the Tea Party leaders, so that their unthinking masses will go out and
get more guns and ammo, and keep them in a safe and well-hidden place. This is long-term planning -- just
in case there should be a serious future conflict between the left and the right. We all know that many leftists
don't own a gun, but most rightists do. Tea Bagger leaders want their followers to be armed to the teeth.
Guess who will win the conflict, if there should be one?
