The “Lafayette County Republican Central Committee” of Missouri — an evil power of greater strength than the Chamber of Commerce and AHIP and Jackie Seal combined, times Halloween — has posted this warning on the highway: when the Second Revolutionary War comes… get your ass to New Hampshire and hide, because war is really scary!

Oh right, a black guy wants to give some people healthcare and NOW it’s all about fizkall responsibility.

I guess by not putting up any contact information, they figure the Secret Service won’t be able to find them and jail them for inciting to riot and making terroristic threats.

Fucking pussy retards. They keep flapping their gums about the “coming revolution” and “watering the tree of liberty” but none of these dipshits is volunteering to catch the first bullet for freedumb. Here–it’s a surplus ammo can of dicks. Dig in.

JMP November 20, 2009 at 3:43 pm

In reality, isn’t it much more likely to go like this:

1. Starve the Beast, keep your money.
2. Get caught by the IRS.
3. Go to jail.

slappypaddy November 20, 2009 at 3:44 pm

pissing up a rope is not “watering the tree of liberty.”

We need to reconsider whether the North actually won the Civil War. I’m thinking a true win would have had the fuckers secede.

Because every upcoming revolution is always announced via roadside billboards. How else do you think we were ready for the Cracker Barrel Insurrection, the Flying J Putsch, and the Love Travel Stop Coup D’etat?

I really like this advice. Please teabaggers, keep your money. Don’t pay your taxes. once all you fucking retards start going to prison for tax evasion, we will legalize drugs make room for you. Win/win.
Or just die. Win also.

Central Committee? Sounds pretty damn commie to me. Why are these Missouri Stalinists pretending to be Republicans? It’s almost like they want an all-seeing, authoritarian government that controls the press and accuses all its enemies of treason. Oh, wait.

[re=463908]Zorg[/re]: Exactly. How can Real Americans refuse to pay taxes IN A TIME OF WAR??!!11!!1!

AxmxZ November 20, 2009 at 3:50 pm

Wait, so the progression goes: “Illegal action, if that doesn’t work then legal action, and if that doesn’t work, all out treason and war”?

Well, if you must. I’m sure the federal government can build some more prisons to accomodate you all for tax evasion. Now you too can feel like Al Capone!

Extemporanus November 20, 2009 at 3:50 pm

I sure hope they put out a billboard-on-tape version, because there’s no way a wingnut from Missouri could ever read the whole thing while passing it in a moving vehicle.

Also, all that lip moving would send dip flying everywhere.

I guess there was some big sale on dumb ass bilboards , since look what’s going up in Wheat Ridge, CO:

Nyana45 November 20, 2009 at 3:52 pm

Well, okay. I guess once the so-called revolutionaries stop paying their taxes, they’ll no longer use the tax-supported infrastructure, such as public roads. Am I right? Can we expect to see less of them on our roads in the near future? I’d like that, actually, so go ahead. Keep your money, oh brave revolutionaries.

JesusButter November 20, 2009 at 3:53 pm

They’ll reconsider their position when, after having “starved the beast”, the beast cuts off their social security, their medicare, their clean drinking water and their sewage treatment plants and the electrical grid. They will also have to inspect their own medicine, meat, and other food and hey, good luck with that.

rmontcal November 20, 2009 at 3:53 pm

So I can’t yell “fire!” in a movie theater, but this is OK?

Yeah boy howdy, that ‘starve the beast’ strategy worked great over the 20 years (8 for Reagan, 12 for the Bushes) that it was tried. Let’s see: somewhere in there, we had a Dumbocrat preznident who raised taxes, and almost wiped out the national debt, until Greenspan said WTF.

These people will believe any goddamn thing.

FlownOver November 20, 2009 at 3:54 pm

I’m with MasterBlaster – Embargo on! Let ‘em revolt alone in the dark.

JMP November 20, 2009 at 3:55 pm

The Missouri wignuts also need some grammar lessons. For one, don’t use “A” with a plural like “citizens”; it should be just “Citizens guide to”. Now, they’re guiding to the revolution of the corrupt government; I guess this means that the government is turning on an axis at a regular rate, since as this is the government acting here it would contradictory for it to perform a revolution as in revolt instead of revolve.

Oldskool November 20, 2009 at 3:56 pm

I had no idea there were dumbshits in Mizzorah too. Suddenly my part of the South looks a little better.

Maybe we could incite some sort of mutually eliminative fringe war by notifying PETA that the LCRCC has demanded that Americans starve the beast.

germansteel November 20, 2009 at 4:04 pm

“Revolution of a corrupt government”??? Is our government going around something? Or, is it going around itself, like the earth revolving around its axis?

Do they have schools in Missouri? Do they teach English? If they do, they need to revolute them, first, into learning the ‘tards in the Republican party.

As a former Missourian, I’d point out, we voted for our deceased governor over ashcroft. Of course that cleared the way for him to become the AG, but we didn’t know that would happen. Also.

[re=463976]Snarkless[/re]: HST (and I don’t mean Hunter S Thompson) was from Independence, MO, a KC suburb. It’s pretty well known that all evil begins in the suburbs.

Snarkless November 20, 2009 at 4:24 pm

Actually Harry Truman was born in southwestern rural Missouri and moved to Independence before the turn of the century predating it being a suburb by sometime. I believe I have now proven my moniker.

germansteel November 20, 2009 at 4:25 pm

When Republicans say “Prepare for War,” their frame of reference for “war” is watching someone else’s kids on the tee vee, in Army camouflage, in a place none of them could locate using a good GPS or an atlas, while they reach for the cheetos bag and liter bottle of Mountain Dew, spilling ashes from their cigarette on their wife-beater, yellow-sweat stained t-shirt.

“If you’re really going to start an insurrection, consider bringing more than twenty or so of your closest friends.” – Attributed to John Brown, shortly before his death at the hands of federal troops.

This is the result of people buying into their own bullshit.

Just to put that billboard in context–Lafayette County is where that wingnut religious family has been arrested on numerous charges of beastiality, incest, molestation, rape, etc.
