SUPER BOWL OF RETARDATION

Maybe Waiting In A Thousand-Person Line To Get Into A House Office Building Should Be The Time To Realize, ‘What Am I Even Doing?”

A top secret operative sends us this video of the line of folks looking to get into Longworth, which is super lengthy. Clearly the guards are ACORN thugs trying to slow down the security process, the bastards. But hey there’s another House office building right across the street, so they will just run back and forth between the two buildings all day trying to find the shortest lines, as one would do at the supermarket check-out.

  1. I would really really hate to be one of those poor guards today. Imagine the crud these headcases are bringing with them.

  2. Cassawary says at 3:21 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Look at all those hippies.

  3. I counted 1.7 million people in that line.

  4. Baconcat says at 3:22 pm, November 5th, 2009

    I look at this line and all I can think is

    GET A FUCKING JOB!!!!!

  5. AbstinenceOnly Ed says at 3:22 pm, November 5th, 2009

    REAL AMERICA waits ON line. Only leftist commie intellectual snobs wait IN line. Internet > Skating, k?

  6. thefrontpage says at 3:22 pm, November 5th, 2009

    This is what awaits these morons when they arrive at the gates of Hell.

  7. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 3:23 pm, November 5th, 2009

    They’re waiting so patiently to go on a destructive rip-it-up rampage.

  8. V572625694 says at 3:24 pm, November 5th, 2009

    AbstinenceOnly Ed: You have that exactly backwards. “On-line” is East Coast elitist talk. Real Murricans — that is, people from the Midwest — wait “in line.”

  9. thefrontpage says at 3:24 pm, November 5th, 2009

    You know there’s a whole crew of U.S. Capitol and Federal Protective Service cops who are itching to “go rogue” on these idiotic lunatic basket-cases.

  10. el donaldo says at 3:24 pm, November 5th, 2009

    That’s a lot of fanny packs to check.

  11. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 3:27 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Which Bill– Clinton? Ayres?

  12. You won’t see this many white people in a group again until the Palin booksignings start up.

  13. engulfedinflames says at 3:28 pm, November 5th, 2009

    What awaits them?

  14. freakishlystrong says at 3:29 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Douchetards. The congress critters have probably all slipped out the back. I know I would.

  15. Scruffy_The_Janitor says at 3:29 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Are these the same guys who are deliving a million pink slips tomorrow???

  16. Scruffy_The_Janitor says at 3:30 pm, November 5th, 2009

    If teabaggers have to wait in line, the terrorists have already won.

  17. 4tehlulz says at 3:30 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Baconcat: This. Also, the guards should check for Medicare and Social Security cards and kick those jackasses out for being disingenuous fucktards.

  18. JadedDIssonance says at 3:30 pm, November 5th, 2009

    engulfedinflames: More pointless postulating about populations of pep rallies.

  19. SayItWithWookies says at 3:32 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Lobbyist #1: “Hey Ed, we’ve got a request from a client to try to mobilize citizens to rally against a bill that’ll give them affordable health care and won’t let insurance companies drop them from being covered.”
    Lobbyist #2: “Holy shit, that’s a tall order. But tell ‘em we can do it. Hell, tell ‘em that we’ll get ‘em so riled up that we’ll have thousands of people taking time off work and drive cross-country to wait in line to oppose it. Yeah.”
    Lobbyist #1: “Damn, Ed — you’ve gone completely insane. This is gonna be fun.”

  20. I can smell the swine flu from here.

  21. One Yield Regular says at 3:34 pm, November 5th, 2009

    thefrontpage: Not to mention every poor Congressional staffer in Washington, who are all this very minute probably plotting their revenge on Michele Bachmann.

  22. Keeel the beeel!

  23. germansteel says at 3:36 pm, November 5th, 2009

    I know a sure fire way to get those retards to pack up and go home: Tell them the line is for signing up for the Army.

  24. choom gangster says at 3:40 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Min: Ssssh! Don’t give away the secret liberal plan to get all of these morons sick.

  25. Cassawary says at 3:41 pm, November 5th, 2009

    The security folks should take a nice long break to show how well smaller government can serve the people. Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em!

  26. el donaldo says at 3:41 pm, November 5th, 2009

    With any luck, the security process will slow them down and thin them out so much that they’ll step into the bright fluorescent light, realize that the screaming hordes aren’t next to them, realize they have no fucking idea what they’re doing there without someone feeding it to them second-by-second, and then chicken out and run.

  27. shadowMark says at 3:43 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Palin doesn’t have a note up on Facebook praising these people and saying she stands with them. Splitter!

  28. rmontcal says at 3:44 pm, November 5th, 2009
  29. choinski says at 3:45 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Its the Healthcare reform game! Teabaggers can sing ‘I’m Just a Bill’, the entrance to Longworth is ‘Passage’, and the line / security / wait is ‘In committee’. Spend hours getting past obstructionis ‘Lawmakers’ only to be led to another long line (another committee)!

    Fun, huh?

    The Leiberman shows up and chains hinself to the entrance.

  30. Scruffy_The_Janitor says at 3:47 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Someone should just walk up and shout: “On my mark, release the hounds of hell!!!!”

  31. Extemporanus says at 3:47 pm, November 5th, 2009

    el donaldo: The hardest part is differentiating fanny pack from fupa.

  32. the problem child says at 3:47 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Those death panels aren’t moving fast enough, look at the back up in those lines!

  33. Come here a minute says at 3:48 pm, November 5th, 2009

    ZOO: You are a linguistic bigot. A funny, funny elitist.

  34. choom gangster: Ohhh, I see. And once they get sick and take advantage of their own generous health care benefits, then they’ll realize how selfish and mean-spirited it is to oppose decent health care for all Americans…

    No, it’s too subtle. It’ll never work.

  35. mollymcguire says at 3:52 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Cassawary: Agreed. I can’t wait for the open letter from Congressman Douchey McFuckface (R-Real America) complaining about how government services (such as public transportation, police, etc.) were slashed as part of the Obama-Pelosi campaign to fustrate the teabaggers.

  36. Extemporanus says at 3:53 pm, November 5th, 2009

    I’m guessing that at least half of them think that they’re waiting in line to get into Woolworth’s, and that the rest are hoping that the Longworth Building is some kind of gay sex club.

    (Which, when I think of it, kinda is…)

  37. joementum says at 3:55 pm, November 5th, 2009

  38. RandomNickname says at 3:59 pm, November 5th, 2009

    I’m still looking for…. um…. I know there’s gotta be some somewhere… and…. there it is! NASCAR clothing! And a leather jacket too! Noice!

  39. norbizness says at 4:00 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Proposed sign: THIS WAY FOR THE ROCKETSHIP DESTINED FOR THE HEART OF THE SUN

  40. thefrontpage says at 4:07 pm, November 5th, 2009

    norbizness: That’s funny!

  41. Why are they chanting “KYEE-ILL THA BYEE-ILL!” Is that teabaggereese?

  42. not_very_snarky says at 4:14 pm, November 5th, 2009

    I was stuck near those freaks for 20 minutes today. They must have noticed my brushed hair and clean scent because they started grunting about whether or not I read the bill and if I supported the public option. Nothing like watching a Walmart fashion show with backwoods Billy and his 4 teeth.

  43. AnnieGetYourFun says at 4:15 pm, November 5th, 2009

    V572625694: Commies (Canadians) wait in a queue.

  44. binarian says at 4:20 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Baconcat: Agreed. I can’t help but think whenever I see this kind of silliness on a workday that it’s ironic that these are the same people who accuse the homeless and underemployed of being lazy and having no work ethic. Oh, but it’s ok for YOU to play hookey from work; ’cause this is IMPORTANT, right? ‘Cause you’re saving country from those OTHER lazy motherfuckers.

  45. President Beeblebrox says at 4:21 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Saw a Live Shot on CNN this morning of the teafools standing outside the Capitol waiting for their noontime rally on the steps. CNN was trying its best to plug the “angry electorate is just itchin’ for 2010″ meme that the rest of the MSM is pushing, but at best there looked to be about 1,000 or less losers in the crowd.

    I swear I saw at least two morbidly obese white folks on Rascals in the mix.

    The rest of them were pasty, dougby, annoying white folks who looked like they’d be just as happy at an old-timey lynchin’ as they were standing outside the Capitol waving Gadsden flags and crudely-made and densely-handwritten protest signs.

    America, fuck yeah!

  46. Way Cool Larry says at 4:21 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Decker: is that what they were saying? I thought it was “kill boy kill!”

  47. Is there a single visible racial or ethnic minority in that video? Or is it all white bitters? The second, right?

    If you statistically picked, oh, 100 Americans what are the chances that not a single one would be a minority? Pretty much zero. Of course if you picked 100 Republican bitters at random, it’s actually quite high. I guess that answers it then.

    GET A BRAIN, MORANS!

  48. AbstinenceOnly Ed says at 4:38 pm, November 5th, 2009

    V572625694: YOU WOUDN’T KNOW REAL MURKA IF IT BOUGHT YOU A KFC FAMOUS BOWL AND HELPD U UNDRESS!!! It’s en-line, just so we don’t get confused with West Coast Sissys and East Coast Snobs. Murka!

  49. Jim89048 says at 4:40 pm, November 5th, 2009

    So I take it the Longworth Building has one of those ritzy rope-line bouncersto determine who gets in according to how cool or attractive they are? I don’t see what the holdup could possibly be.

    Silly, silly teabaggerz…

  50. PoignancySelz says at 5:04 pm, November 5th, 2009

    Extemporanus: A little consumer trick of mine, when at the check-out line always, always go to the line with the least amount of items, regardless how long; being stuck behind that fupa with a full cart is like falling into a septic tank.

  51. Meh, the lines to pick up BO inauguration tix at Longworth were much longer. BTW, tried looking people in the whites of their eyes today as per the rally organizers’ instructions, and it just freaked ‘em out. I was, however, able to diagnose mild jaundice and an obvious hangover.

  52. FlipOffResearch says at 12:08 am, November 6th, 2009

    They are all so ugly.
