Just saw my first Teabagger Rally around here |

I live in a very blue area where we have not had much teabagger activity....Some but very low key and very outnumbered.
Today, whilst driving downtown I saw a small group of them standing on the town square holding signs like "I want my country back."
I was tempted to give them the finger or something equally mature as I drove past them, but my better sense prevailed.
Well I have to admit I admired their commitment as it was pouring down rain and they were still standing there....I could have offered them an umbrella, but I figured "Fukem."

1. I wonder what they will do when the catch pnuemonia and have to go to the hospital? |
|
I hope they stay to their austerity and pay for all of it out of pocket.

3. They used to try and do rallies in the our town square |
|
but people like me discouraged them. When ever I walked by I would stand next to them and yell things like GRRR I'M MAD ABOUT NOTHING and RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE!! They didn't like me to much. :rofl:

4. "GRRR I'M MAD ABOUT NOTHING" |
|
:rofl:
I remember one such (counter-)protester whose sign read "I forgot what I was mad about!" :rofl:
If given the opportunity, I want to counter-protest a Tea Bagger rally with with a sign that reads "Next time we'll come armed with explosive diarrhea!"
Counter-protesting is an art and can be quite fun!

6. Nah, just their street clothes...Kinda boring visually |
|
No three-cornered hats or Obama masks or anything like that....I didn't realize it was a teabagger rally til I read their signs.
