Teabaggers are so stupid that thye dont know or probably do know they are just being used as a tool to get the repubtards back in power and you can bet your last penny that 99% of the teabag mob are also the same peeps who voted for mac-palin and got so pissed off that a black man is now POTUS and that is why these kooks came out from under thier racist rocks and that they will not admitt to even though they are doing it in front of tv cams as that is how stupid they are, My best advise to the teabag old mob, keep doing what you are doing as its going to backfire right in your faces just like it did 2008, Smart peeps learn from past mistakes and that leaves the teabag mob out, I would also bet most of these teabaggers also watch fox news and stormfront.org on the net.

Just look at teabag events, were are the blacks,litinos,chinese& japnese americans, if they are there you can count them on 2 hands and just to post it, yea i am a younger person and i am white anglo saxon too who has had enough of this hate shit from all these old fart white teabagger and i vote too and most young peeps fell the same way i do and they vote too, just take a poll from any highschool and you will find out that most kids diss you republicans & teabaggers and everything you stand for which is pure hate for anyone who does not confirm to your so called christian racist way of thinking as none of us want to go back to the way it was in the 1950,s and that will never happen so get that into your mindless brains, Now go to your old folk rest homes and bitch about it cuz you are not going to win,. Not now, not ever.

Don’t fool yourself, Greg. You say in your title: “teabagger attempts to kill muslim”. You know, as does everyone else, that people from the “tea party movement” as well as people outside that, call themselves teabaggers. And you have no indication that this guy was a part of that movement. None, zilch, nada.

Yes, the guy may have been a bigot, or he may just have snapped for whatever reason. Fact is, we don’t know. Fact also is that being a bigot does not automatically make him a teabagger.

May his actions be the outcome of the protests against the community center? Sure? Does that mean that he is necessarily part of the protestors or their movement? No.

Again, Beaker, I have said nothing about a political party called “tea”. I’m not even sure such a thing exists.

“That obviously drove him crazy and he became a teabagger.”

Again Greg, where is there any evidence that he was connected to the tea partiers?

Just because teabaggers may be racist, doesn’t mean that all racist actions are executed by teabaggers. You’re just making stupid statements without any evidentiary basis at this point.

Chris: The fist one is stupid, the second one, you can take to the bank? Did I get it right?

Yes, indeed, “teabagging” in the liberal blogosphere has become not too sublte dogwhistle for bigot. You caught us.

Just Sayin’, you may have missed the literary reference, but maybe not.

The coincidence is a bit painful because Larry is not a morOn, but it is even worse, because of the meaning of the word “Moran” in Maasai. But that’s how language works!

Check back tomorrow for more teabagging morans.

Will that include Larry Moran?

Compare and contrast two statements:

“All terrorists are Muslims”

“All bigots are teabaggers”

Enright’s FB page showed him as being a fan of Greg Ball, a teabagger politician running for State Senate in New York.

It has been scrubbed now, but earlier screengrabs can be seen at Talking Points Memo.

By the way, there is no mosque. It’s a community center.

By: Greg Laden

Greg Laden — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 15:09:55 +0000

He supports building the mosque? I don’t think so. He was a member of an organization that supported the mosque. That obviously drove him crazy and he became a teabagger.

And why do teabaggers insist on trying to distance themselves from racists and crazy violent people, when racism, craziness, and violence is at the core of the teapbagger philosophy.

I’m not quite sure what this “tea party” thing you’all are talking about is.
