Wonkette
Brave Wonkette operative Matt Singerman is — and we say this with complete accuracy — just cold taking pictures of a handful of ill-informed dingbats wandering around in the freezing rain with their droopy signs about … well, take your pick, really. Remember when libtards were the ones who held the goofball million-cause marches? Well, now it’s the wingnuts’ turn, and they sure bring a new flavor to the proceedings. Mmm, tastes like racism!
Umm. What’s going on here, exactly? AH WE GET IT, libtards showed up and wore … boat captain hats, and rental tuxes, because that’s how the rich roll, right? This is a COUNTER PROTEST. And, as usual, not really funny, Billionaires 4 Bush, etc. Stop it.
No taxes, Nobama, Kill Socialists … shut down Gitmo? Oh, right, these guys just walk around Washington every day. Come on, liberals, let the teabaggers have their moment in the sun freezing fucking rain.
Wait, what does this sign even mean? Oh, right, nothing — it means nothing at all. That’s more like it! Happy teabagging day, teabaggers!
At first glance I thought that sign said “100% Tranny.”
Wingnut guy forgot to add “Caucasian” to his sign.
When do the teabaggers start snoodling?
A 3% tax hike on the 5% wealthiest is 100% tyranny?
WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE PEOPLE THINKING???
Asking another 3% in taxes on someone who may make in the hundreds of millions of dollars per year hurts the rest of us in what way?
The lady in the black dress in the first picture—-is the pixiliated area her lady parts? Also.
Heart + Soul= Nancy Wilson + Al Green? And what does this have to do with the Jews?
why is the second picture fuzzed out? I haz a confuzed
Laugh all you want, but I will tell you this: a lot of libtard friends of mine are having buyers remorse from electing Obama president in 2004, back when something could have been done to avert the current economic crisis.
Hey! It’s that Ron Howard guy/gal again! Way to get around, Paultard!
You can tell the wingnuts haven’t been at this that long. The libtards have costumes and readable signs with proper syntax, probably printed somewhere elitist like “Kinko’s”, while the wingnuts did it old school with Sharpies and highlighters and posterboard and just writing down the first 5 words that pop into their head.
Why are they protesting? Out of work people don’t pay taxes.
Hey, look! Its our man/lady/ron howard friend!
(in the last photo, dripping on the right)
chascates: Jeebus! This whole thing has got me so pissed off I can’t even think about what I’m ready!! Plus I just got up.
OBAMANAMANOMAMONANA ECONOMICS BAD
I kind of want to send that last picture to the superfluous quotation marks blog.
These people clearly left the cake out in the rain.
Dolts.
Come here a minute: Ron seems to have aged terribly since this morning. Seems like the red line commute and epic protest fail really take their toll on a guy.
i smoked a lot of crap in my day, including nutmeg, green tea (no shit), heavenly blue morning glory seeds, and the usual suspects, but nothing i ever smoked got me as addle-pated as whatever shit these teatards been puffing. this is the most revolting revolt IN HISTORY.
chascates: I meant reading. Goddamn it! I’m going to start drinking right now.
Which disaster did Obama cause?
The stock market fail, the Iraq fail, the Afghanistan fail, the bank fail, the mortgage fail, the FEMA fail, the DOJ fail, the no bid contract fail, the Plame fail, the domestic wiretapping fail, the torture fail, the 9/11 intelligence fail, the no child left behind fail, the medicare drug fail…
Stupid people protesting Gitmo- what’s the point in protesting an illegal detention center used for the torture of often innocent people when OBAMA WANTS TO RAISE OUR TAXES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WAKE UP SHEEPLES!
I am sure the DC residents, who know from “Taxation Without Representation” quite well, are loving these idiots’ ideas of unfairness.
Is that a math problem on the first guy’s sign? Let’s figure it out. . . Looks like we’re left with Christian + Soul which I’m pretty sure is just Gospel. IS GOSPEL MUSIC OK WITH YOU MR PRESIDENT? HENGH?
I just poured myself a nice cup of Earl Grey in my warm dry office to celebrate these noble patriots.
I just thought about all of the actual, probably drunken, post-protest conservatard “hook-up” secks that is going to happen tonight. And I died a little inside.
chascates: it’s satire. not necessarily good satire, but satire nonetheless.
Don’t Rain On My Tirade. Colossal Laugh Fest.
Fantabulous article on nonsense by Paul Begala at CNN.
“The Boston Tea Party, in case the clods at Fox didn’t know it, protested “taxation without representation.” Note the second word: without. The goofballs tossing tea bags today have representation. They voted in the election; they lost. Bush’s tax policies were a godsend to the Paris Hilton class, but they sent the country on the road to bankruptcy and helped ruin the economy. Give me a break. Instead of tossing tea bags for the cameras, the Fox phonies ought to go to Walter Reed Army Medical Center. There they would find better, braver men who have truly sacrificed for their country. They deserve nothing but the best — not the shameful and shoddy conditions they endured during the Bush administration.

Good thing we all prayed to Jebus to make it rain..oh, wait…
How uncomfortable to you suppose those people get whenever another photog walks away and they have to talk to each other again?
Is that Harry Potter in the last picture?
What’s the equation in the top picture?
Christianity - Capitalism = US heart and soul
or
Christianity = Capitalism - US heart and soul
Either way, it looks like Wingnutboy forgot a dash or three.
chascates: Please engage irony detector. Even low sensitivity should be sufficient.
“A man caused disaster.” That sign is more revealing than a Tarot card spread.
Advocatus_Diaboli: I can’t recognize teh satire cause I was up doing teh taxes. Of which I owe $700 to teh socialists. But I’m drinking tea this morning.
Fuck this! After watching all of these ignorant, lazy, trashy and comfortably stupid white people embarrass this hard working white male, I am switching sides.
Glory to Allah, Death to the Infedels.
Fucking white trash assholes ruined my country!
TaxWallStreet: nmmagayar: There is a magical water that falls from the sky, it’s called “god’s tears over the stupidity of his so-called followers.”
I read that second sign as: A 3% tax hike for 5% of the wealthiest is 100% TRANNY!
Then started pondering how these people became fans of Christian Siriano of Project Runway. Seems an unlikely match.
Anarchitect: The Repuglican losing power fail… and they are mad as hell… and not gonna take it anymore… so they are teabagging each other… and snoodling… next up, ATM.
Is it really sad that the counter protesters were more organized than the actual tea baggers?
burning obama effigy in 1,2,3…
StephanieInCA: And another generation of people too stupid to turn off Rush Limbaugh will be born.
White fucking trash used to stay in the South.
I, for one, am ready to surrender.
We’ve gotta know when to fold ‘em, guys.
Ken’s right. This is the kind of crap people spew when they can’t go around with signs reading ‘AH MAH GAWD, A NIGRAS PRESIDENT’.
Nerdalicious: “The goofballs tossing tea bags today have representation.”
I was just having this same conversation an hour ago… the FAIL is strong, so very strong!
Looking at these pictures, well… it’s like someone created a “stupid shithead magnet” and sucked all the stupidest, shittiest shitheads out of every McCain/Palin rally, gave them some cardstock and a sharpie and dumped them in front of some Fox cameras (the only people on Earth who give a flying fuck about any of this.)
Is there some secret code that wingnuts speak that only they can understand? Because, Jesus Christ in a chicken basket, I can’t fathom what sort of message they are trying to get across.
Billionaires 4 Bush! LOL I love those guys and gals! Haha. Funny how the rightwing come out and protest when the billionaires are getting more taxed but not about the Constitution or illegal occupations or torture and rape of people including children. Ah don’t you love it. I was waiting on the Jewish conspiracy and George Soros.
cal: LOL the Christian guy doesn’t know his Bible very well. Jesus said to give all to the poor and help those who are weaker. The first Christian’s in Acts actually did communism. Of course I’m sure it wasn’t called that back then since Marx and Engels wasn’t around to write the Manifesto yet. But anyways they shared everything and nobody owned anything of themselves and they helped each other out. So Jesus was a socialist and so were the first Christian’s in Acts. James was against rich people too.
toastandlove: LOL I love those sharpie signs.
LittlePinky82: most people who make an issue of their Christianity fail to espouse most of the things Jesus actually said and stood for. I, as an atheist, am usually more “Christian” in my acts than many of the bigoted, close minded, mean spirited Christians out there.
Plus, the asswipe in the picture missed the part about American equalling people of all races, creeds, and colors.
Cape Clod: Their message is don’t tax anyone, but protect us from the Muslins.
Atheist Nun:
They can’t even stay with one leader for 5 seconds. They have the attention span of a flea on crack. Today it’s the oh so statesmenlike Rick Santelli. What happened to Palin? Limbaugh?
HAHAHAHAHA. God’s raining on the Wingnuts’ big party day.
Heh. I think that the counter-protests are pretty funny. But then, I think Jon Stewart is funny, so I’m obviously not up to Wonkette standards of this-isn’t-funniness.
chascates: those are Borat wannabees, sir.
Mild Midwesterner: They are protesting that they got born to stupid people so they have to be stupid too. Not fair.
C’mon. We could hardly expect a serious economic crisis without the resurrection of Father Coughlin. I have no doubt that if Herbert Hoover were alive today, he’d be turning over in his grave.
LittlePinky82: Marx lifted the line “from each according to his ability, to each according to his need” from Acts.
Anyone out there protesting today against the administration or against tax policies that include tax breaks for the lower- and middle-classes is an asshole. Pure and simple, these morons are all psycho assholes.
Doglessliberal: Remember that part of the Bible where Jesus goes to the Temple and offers everyone subprime mortgages?
Nerdalicious: If he weren’t such an insufferable douche I’d almost say this article is…well-reasoned.
TaxWallStreet: nmmagayar: Raindrops keep fallin’ on my lens
I must quote a great great man who once said “the stupid was so thick you could saw it into blocks and pick them up with tongs.”
LittlePinky82: Isn’t it somewhere in Mathew where Jesus said “the meek shall inherit the earth through the cutting of capital gains taxes?”
Those teabaggers are getting all wet!
What they need is a good pair of Arabian goggles to keep them dry…
Or maybe a glass-bottomed boat ride out into the Potomac will help them get noticed…
Or perhaps they should get a brass quartet together to play patriotic tunes outside the White House. Although with all the rain, they may end up getting a rusty trombone.
ManchuCandidate: Well, it is DC. You could organize a big libtard protest just by picking every fourth person out of brunch line in Adams Morgan, plus one French tour bus.
The Helvetica Scenario: that is right near the part where he slaughters all the nonbelievers, right?
Nerdalicious: Someone needs to create a parody Wingnut Frankenstein Leader to lead them all off a cliff… Unless that’s already happened with Glenn Beck… deep in my heart I have a dream that he will rip off his mask on TV and actually be Joey Skaggs or one of the ‘Yes Men’ or something.
Anarchitect: Win. (cut & p**te comment–queebo*r* out)
Atheist Nun: The right will have its next Reagan when he explodes, full-grown, out of Rush Limbaugh’s massive gut.
I like the counter protesters. When the “God Hates Fags” assholes came through town, we had infiltrators holding signs that said “God Hates Figs” and “God Hates Kittens”. Comedy gold.
LittlePinky82: so were the first Christians in Acts.
Chap 4 Verse:32-35. They shared all in common.
From Methodist Me.
I’ll say this for us liberals, we do clean up nice. Three comparatively beautiful people, well-dressed and smiling in the midst of these cheeto-stained, scowling, troglodyte Paultards makes for a lovely picture.
The problem with the “Billionaires 4 Bush” people chiming in on this is that their Thurston-and-Lovey-Howell shtick isn’t really relevant to these fucking illiterate trogs.
Teabaggin mongoliods…
CaliforniaMike: Who is playing John Galt in the upcoming film version of Atlas Shrugged? Just prop that guy up and give him a script to read off a TeLePr0mTeRz, written by Alan Keyes.
LittlePinky82: dedicated love for the Billionaires for Bush…..I imagine the teabaggers think they are teabagging. haw haw
Judas Peckerwood: So did I!
Yeah, I agree - I’m a big fan of Billionaires for Bush. Their signs are kind of funny, but the idea of Billionaires for Bush protesting “with” the ill-informed teabag wingnuts? THAT’S hilarious. I mean how long do you think it’s going to take the teabaggers to figure out that it’s a counter protest? And can you imagine their smiles fading as they realize, via the B4B signs and then Norquist et al speeches, that that’s what the organizer’s message is? Hah do you think they’ll even realize that?
I hate America.
OBAMANOMICS: A MAN THEY CALL REVEEN
“Obamanomics: A MAN CAUSED DISASTER”
I just read it, and I can’t stop laughing… Oh, gawd, my side hurts…
sagaderisa: No… hell no! “Teabaggers” don’t do satire. Satire requires an intelligence advanced enough to realize “Teabagger” is an unfortunate thing to call oneself when not promoting “Hot-Gay-Mansex!”
Joey Ratz: I think the equation is: The square root of Christian - Capitalism divided by American Delta (heart) plus Soul equals one over zero or “Doh!”
Ok, this is the WORST article writing I’ve ever seen. This is more pathetic than FOX NEWS! How exactly does a sign saying Christian Capitalist equate to being anti-jew? Please explain.
Believe me, I am on board with the “idea” that this article is pathetically attempting to convey, but really, do your criticisms have to be as dumb as the signs themselves?? Its sad that you’re no better than they are!
Har Har, if this was an attempt to be funny, then next time try something a little more sophisticated. This is more on par with a bad fart joke!
Logicmaster: Wonkette is a satirical political community fixated on Trucknutz and buttsecks…
Y so srs?
Logicmaster: On par with a bad “fart joke”? You’re new to these parts, aren’t ya pardner? It starts with the fart jokes, and, also, rapidly goes down hill from here. Not like that’s a bad thing, of course.
Most of the teabaggers are repressed homosexuals. Publically, they would disparage homosexuals, while privatly, they engage in homosexuality.
Look at the blatent racism/classism in the 2nd photo from the top:
“America was buildt on the backs of poor people” “Why stop now”
