I see your teabaggers and I raise you a Canadian conservative
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/ottawa-notebook/ignatieff-liberal-food-and-a-cantankerous-tory-bowler/article1965484/

The Liberals wanted unscripted and they got unscripted Thursday when Michael Ignatieff visited a famous local diner.

And so Mr. Ignatieff went there to eat – he had a hot dog, fries and a Coke – and to campaign among the lunch-time crowd. Not all of the patrons were pleased, however.

A table of nine elderly bowlers, who appeared to have a standing reservation after their Thursday game, were not impressed by Mr. Ignatieff, who was seated nearby.

One man was muttering under his breath about how annoying the whole scene was. He used profanity to describe the Liberal Leader but his wife shushed him a couple of times.

He would not give his name and when Mr. Ignatieff came up to shake his hand, he refused. “That’s my prerogative,” he said.

Mr. Ignatieff turned away quickly but not before he told the group to “have a nice lunch.”

Later, the elderly gentleman said he was a Conservative. He thought the election, which he blamed on Mr. Ignatieff, was too expensive.

Offered a hot dog, he said he didn’t want to eat “Liberal food.”

:rofl::rofl::rofl: alright, I know teabaggers are morons. But how do you top "Liberal food"?

1. Outstanding.
You are fighting over hot dogs and liberal food.

We're fighting over styrofoam plates and plastic sporks.

The world really has gone crazy.

:rofl:
