President Barry Obamez claims that he’s trying to secure our border, but our tea-bagging heroes know otherwise. Sure, he’s all “stricter workplace enforcement” this and “fine, I’ll send more National Guard troops down” that, and blah blah blah, but has come up with any really innovative border-sealing ideas? Like, say, sending someone down to the border to tell the Mexicans, loudly and firmly, that they aren’t wanted? Do the teabaggers have to do all your work for you, Mr. President?
Here is a list of things that were actually done and said at the big Tea Party rally that took place in the midst of the blighted desert south of Tucson yesterday:
- “‘Instead of finding bugs in our beds, we’re finding home invaders,’ said Tony Venuti, a Tucson radio host who attached a huge sign to the fence that told immigrants to head to Los Angeles, where they will be more welcome, and even offered directions for getting there.” What language was this sign in, we wonder? English, the language of America, or Spanish, the language of the Mexico-insects? If the latter, who did Venuti find to do his translation for him? Did he inspect this individual’s papers thoroughly?
- “‘If I had all the national TV here, I’d probably climb the fence to show you how easy it is,’ Sheriff [Joe] Arpaio said from the rally’s stage.” Joe Arpaio doesn’t get all sweaty from fence-climbin’ for print media or local TV. Remember this.
- “Sheriff Larry A. Dever of Cochise County … said he had no doubt that migrants and drug smugglers were using lookouts to keep track of the rally. ‘They know this rally is going on,’ he said. ‘They are not fools. They’re experts. They probably know more about this than we do standing here.’” When will Sheriff Dever apologize for claiming that Mexico-insects are more knowledgable than real Americans?
- “Cindy Kolb, a border activist who lives nearby, yelled out through the thick metal slates in the border fence, which had been decorated on the American side with tiny flags, ‘Hey, don’t come over here anymore.’” PROBLEM: SOLVED.
Does anyone else think it’s weird that the people who have been complaining about the danged fence and how it needs building went to a part of the border where the danged fence already exists? We’d say that they were too scared to go anyplace where there wasn’t a wall of metal between them and the Mexi-bugs, but obviously anyone who dares to shout things at at a whole country full of Mexicans isn’t afraid of anything.

Man, it would have been cool if Antonio Banderas had showed up with his guitar case.
Amurrica, fuck yeah! Cave 26 is the best and all the others can go to hell.
That’s nice of the teabaggers, to give the Mexicans a nice little comedy show at the border.
Venuti, Arpaio, and Kolb… Them names sound funny to me. Not good US America names like Smith or Johnston or Shabadoo.
“Mr Obama! BUILD UP THIS WALL!!”
They need to get the brand new “Messican Off,” guaranteed to keep Messicans from getting into their beds. Jesus Christ, these people.
Also, the sheriff from Cochise County complaining about immigrants has no sense of irony. What these people need are Native Americans to yell at them to go the fuck back to Europe.
Mr. Obama needs to put on his Davy Crokett cap, fire up his repeating rifle, and get to work down there at the border defending Amurica, I’m sick of this.
“Does anyone else think it’s weird that the people who have been complaining about the danged fence and how it needs building went to a part of the border where the danged fence already exists?”
Yes, but is it 40 feet tal and 6 foot thick conrete with electrified barbed wire at the top and spot lights and a machine gun turret every 20 yards? Huh? is it? IS IT?
Not so snarky now, are we, Mr. Fruhlinger?
Is it possible for me to change my Wonkette name to Mexi-bug?
As we know, radio hosts telling the local populace to be on the lookout for “cockroaches” has never created any problems anywhere else in the world, right? Or at least never anyplace where the locals are armed with guns instead of machetes.
Helping fix their last national election so that Fox won wasn’t enough, but this might just push them over the edge. Then who’ll constitute the non-voting labor force for employers to abuse and underpay? Will The Gheyz do the harvesting and home building that we’ve come to expect?
On the plus side, if they leave, they might take Taco Bell with them.
Hundreds of tea party activists? Since none of the pictures showed more than 5 individuals, I’m calling bullshit on that claim.
Remember when we used to point and laugh at third world countries? HaHAHa!? Now they’re pointing and laughing at us.
BUILD THE GOSH-DARN FENCE!! PUT 100,000 TROOPS ON THE BORDER TO STOP THE MEXICANS FROM COMING HERE AND UH, BEING MEXICAN!
ELIMINATE THE DEFICIT!!@!
Next, the teabaggers will solve global warming by opening their refrigerators and yelling at the heat.
Wouldn’t it have been funny if Sheriff Joe did climb the fence, fall off on the Mexican side & a bunch of brown people descended upon him like a pack of hyenas on a limping gazelle? Ha ha…too bad it didn’t happen.
no group moonings?
This is Machete, with a special message for Arizona.
They left out how after all the speeches a prayer to Satan was read by Sheriff Joe “Aleister” Arpaio and then a giant bacchanalian orgy took place a good time was had by all.
I love the fact that “organizers had to urge participants to leave their weapons in their vehicles,” according to TP.
They weren’t just going to yell: they were going to use the little holes for sniper fire. They were going to show their courage, and their 2nd amendment remedies, by killing for peace.
[re=639258]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Nice try, but they don’t believe global warming exists because, hey, it snowed last winter!
She [Kolby] added: “We don’t like illegals hiding under bushes when our kids wait for the school bus. This border needs to be secure.”
What?!?
If we kick out anyone who came here illegally, then who will whisper to our dogs???
[re=639272]Domestic Goddess[/re]: See. They are horrible racist bigots, just concerned parents–who never matured past Kindergarten and still believe in monsters under bushes. Think of the children.
Sheriff Arpaio said that the problem could be solved if the immigration patrol were allowed to track down migrants on the Mexican side before they crossed. Preemption. That’s the “Arpaio Doctrine.” And I don’t see a goddam thing wrong with it.
[re=639272]Domestic Goddess[/re]: Those guys are not illegal aliens…it’s a Catholic Priest and your creepy uncle…
[re=639277]Mickey7[/re]: [re=639279]mookworthjwilson[/re]:
Truly, these teabaggers have dizzying intellects…intellects that make them dizzy…
My God! They’re plugging the holes in the fence with American flags!

[re=639278]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: I’m trying to follow that thread of logic. We head over there, find some people we think might be getting ready to cross over to our side of the border, seize them and bring them over here to lock them up(?), because we don’t want them here. Can anyone help me? I’m not understanding Sheriff Arpaio’s plan.
If the fence is so easy to climb, why build it at all, Sheriff Asshole?
Did we just miss a really obvious opportunity to move the border three miles north, throw up some guard towers and barbed wire and then wish these idiots “Vio con dias ” as they straggle back towards Tijuana to apply for re-entry into the country?
JESUS & STUFF!!!
We’ll fight them in the orchards; we’ll fight them in the strawberry fields; We’ll fight them in the lettuce farms and at the car washes. And when we’re done fighting them we’ll go take their jobs and elect Sarah Palin. And once more god will be on his throne and everything will be all right.
“Tea Bags? We ain’t got no Tea Bags. We don’t need no stinkin’ Tea Bags!”
Weren’t Mexi-bugs those things that Neil Patrick Harris was fighting in Starship Troopers?
Josh, it took me a while to see where you were going by using the attached poster graphic from that “Viva Villa” movie;
Villa himself was played by a real merikun gringo.
I’m still looking for cojones Sarah Palin wants to see in action. And if there’s a place to see cojones in action, it’s among the teabaggers.
Sheriff Joe Arpaio is 100 years old and fat as a Shetland pony. He’s not climbing any fences under any circumstances.
[re=639322]imissopus[/re]: No, you’re thinking of the bug killed by Johnny Rico (Casper Van Dien) that shot hot chili sauce all over the place until he fragged it and ruptured the Mexi-bug’s salsa glands.
[re=639258]SayItWithWookies[/re]: LOL
Wallace Beery, now THERE was a Messican’.
Teabaggers are the Sheeple that the Paultards warned us about!
I’d like to see how easy that fence is to climb under gun fire. Think we can get Joe to demo that for us? Asshat.
Maybe if the Mexicans switched from sombreros to floppy fishing hats, they’d be greeted in
a more neighborly fashion.
[re=639241]Serolf Divad[/re]: Don’t forget the moat filled with crocodiles.
A Tea Bagger rally in the Arizona desert in August. They should do more of those.
Home of the Brave, that’s for sure. Cindy Kolb, I wanna lick you silly just to say: “Thank you for protecting the Fatherland and My Freedom.”
I like the picture of the WASPy looking guy with his arm raised in a Nazi salute.
Machete – http://www.firstshowing.net/img/machete-poster-big.jpg
Sorry, i’m in a post links mood.
If they get their wish, who will do the work? Don’t tell me the tea-baggers will masturbate the tom-turkeys.
