AND YOU MIGHT BE A TEABAGGER IF.......
1) You’re offended at any suggestion that the Tea Party is racist, even though nobody objects when people show up at your rallies with blatantly racist signs and slogans.
2) Ronald Reagan is your hero because he was against raising taxes and big government… even though he raised taxes 11 times, doubled the national debt, and tripled the size of government.
3) You mocked Nancy Pelosi for getting emotional when she reflected on the murder of her friend, Mayor George Moscone, but you think it’s manly when John Boehner blubbers when he watches reruns of Flipper.
4) You were all in favor of George Bush bringing “Democracy” to Iraq by invading and killing hundreds of thousands of women and children, but you think Obama “blew it” by staying out of it when the people of Tunisia and Egypt toppled their dictators in popular revolts.
5) You think Climate Change is a big hoax because Senator James Inhofe, firmly in the pocket of the oil companies says it’s bogus.
6) You think president Obama’s birth certificate is a forgery, and that he managed to fool the CIA, FBI, NSA, Secret Service and the entire US government archive of documents with one Photo shopped image.
7) You think president Obama is a socialist, because he wants all Americans to pay their share of taxes, including the rich, and all Americans to enjoy the same benefits of an equitable society, including the same healthcare that Congress enjoys.
8) You think Glenn Beck’s theory of a Code Pink/Muslim/Communist alliance conspiracy to take over the world in a 21st Century caliphate makes perfect sense. ( it hard to say that one with a straight face)
9) You believe the Citizens United decision was all about corporate “free speech,” yet you’re against the Fairness Doctrine being reenacted, because you think it’s contrary to “free speech.”
10) You are absolutely pro-life, under all circumstances — except when an abortion doctor is executed in his church, because he asked for it. And you are for executions even if the person if found to be innocent because a group of 12 morns decided because he or she is scary they should die. The other exception is unnecessary war because the 3000 American military personal that died were from low income family’s and might have need a\some kind of social services some day. An another exception you want the baby born but if that same baby need social services or food stamps you would rather that child die you did your job and forced an unwanted child into the world. If you were pro life you would adopt educate, feed and provide healthcare other wise you pro life fu*k heads should shut the fu*k up.
11) You thought it was cool when Sarah Palin “targeted” Democratic seats on her website with cross hairs, including Gaby Giffords. But when Giffords was shot in Arizona, you didn’t see any connection.
12) You think Sarah Palin would make a good president because she’s a feisty conservative, but that Dianne Feinstein should be run out of town, because she’s a feisty liberal.
13) You think George Soros, a Hungarian born American citizen, is an enemy of freedom because he uses his vast wealth to meddle in foreign affairs. But you think it’s great that Australian-born Rupert Murdoch uses his vast wealth to meddle in American affairs.
14) The main reason you despise George Soros, is because he helped bring down three foreign governments; the Ukraine, Czechoslovakia, and Soviet Georgia. Three communist regimes. Ronald Reagan on the other hand, took down one communist regime: Grenada… Reagan: 1, Soros: 3. Ergo, Soros is an un-American commie. Besides, Sean Hannity said so.
15) You think being a Teabagger makes you more patriotic than liberals, because you own more guns than them wussies.
16) You screamed bloody murder when president Obama rescued GM and Chrysler, because they were “going to fail anyway.” But now that they’re both on the road to recovery, you think George W. Bush deserves most of the credit.
17) When Barack Obama was sworn in, the Dow Jones was at 6500. Today, it’s at 12,400, almost double where it was. And at that time, the economy was shedding 700,000 jobs per month, a trend that has been arrested and reversed ever since. From that, you deduce Obama’s the one who wrecked the economy.
18) You still believe Saddam had WMDs.
19) You are dead-set against “judicial activist” judges, but you were okay with it when the five conservative justices of the Supreme Court voted in favor of Citizens United, effectively guaranteeing our politicians will be bought by the highest bidder, rather than elected by the people.
20) You’re strongly opposed to gay rights, because you claim it’s not biblical. Except in the case of Ken Mehlman, Mary Cheney, and Ted Haggard, because they still vote “right” on the issues.
21) You want all illegal immigrants rounded up and deported, ASAP, no exceptions, period, period, PERIOD. But you don’t want any criminal charges filed against the corporations that have been hiring them in mass in violation of law. ( I wonder if Native Americans demanded the religious fruit loop puritans show there papers when they stumbled off the boat, what would America look like today?)
22) One of your stated concerns with Barack Obama’s candidacy, was that he was too inexperienced for the job, yet you want Herman Cain to challenge him next year.
23) You hate tax cheats, and people who abuse their status for personal advancement — but you admire Clarence Thomas, and have no problem with his wife “speaking on behalf of her husband” at the Heritage Foundation, a far right-wing organization. Also you think that acorn was some kind of threat to our voting system, but had no problem when Al gore won the popular vote but the right wing judicial activist on the supreme court negated the will of the people and for the first time in history the supremacist court place GW in the Presidency. You people are nuts when you speak of judicial activism.
24) You went ballistic when an illegal immigrant murdered an American in Texas two years ago, and you demanded justice. But when three members connected to the Tea Party murdered 9 year old Brisenia Flores, you and your right-wing media barely even mentioned it, nor the conviction.
25) You equate being a “community organizer” to being a Marxist, yet you claim to worship a God whose entire life was being a community organizer.
26) You claim Barack Obama is soft of terrorism and that he’s sympathetic to Muslim extremists. Yet during his first two years in office, his administration captured or killed more terrorists than George Bush did in all eight years of his presidency.
27) You cheered as Andrew Breitbart and his faux journalists brought down ACORN. But when Breitbart got caught doctoring footage of Shirley Sherrod, which brought into question his veracity, you accused her of waging a “race war.”
28) You support Israel’s policies regarding the West Bank and Gaza, because Israel is a democracy, like us. But when Arabs democratically voted in anti-American and anti-Israeli governments, it bewildered you.
29) Your spiritual hero, the Grande Dame of the conservative movement, is Ayn Rand; the dedicated anti-socialist. And yet, she herself in her later years, had no problem secretly cashing in on social security and Medicare.
30) You still think fascism and socialism are basically the same thing, because Glenn Beck has convinced you of that with his magic blackboard. And because of this twisting of history, you don’t think anybody can accuse you of being ideologically aligned with the Nazis… even though you are.
31) You hate science and the corrupt scientists who manufacture data in nefarious schemes
32 You still think global warming is a hoax
33) You think there are hundreds of Nobel Peace Prize-winning scientists who believe in Intelligent Design
34. You think Social Security, Medicare and "big government" are mutually-exclusive
35. You think God is an evangelical Christian conservative
36. You think Elvis was born in August
37. You think the "Soviet Union" remains one of America's biggest threats
38. You can see the "Soviet Union," or Russia, from your backyard
39. You think Paul Revere is famous for warning the British
40. You think the historic "Shot Heard Round the World" took place in New Hampshire
41. You think John Wayne Gacy was a rugged movie star
42. You think John Wayne was a serial killer
43. You think homosexuals can be "cured" by Marcus Bachmann
44. You think Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke has committed "treason"
45. You think there are "Death Panels" consisting of evil doctors who will kill old people
46. You think Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity tell the truth and that Fox News is fair and balanced
47. You think governors who advocate their state's secession from the Union would make great presidents of the United States.
48. You think that African American males like President Obama benefit more by government assistance than those hard-workin' white folks
49. You think President Obama is an illegal alien
50. You think Michele Bachmann really worked for the IRS just to get inside to better understand the enemy
51. You think the Founding Fathers abolished slavery
52. You love America but scowl when your opponents exercise the very Democratic principles which make it great, like free speech; separation of church and state; a free and open press; freedom of religion; checks and balances; freedom from persecution; and civil rights for all
53. And most of all, unlike your founding Tea Party brethren 238 years ago, you think "No taxation without representation" really just means "No taxation."
