I just got this email from a friend. Further proof that the Tea Baggers are racially motivated:
"Shoot me in the face
I’m stuck with a train load of teabaggers on their way home from a DC rally, playing harmonica, singing a twisted version of the theme song from the Jeffersons and spinning conspiracy theories.
I think I’m gonna barf."
He added that they were saying things like, "Since when can a junior senator become President?" (As if being black in America is an advantage.) He also had to listen to a bunch of senior citizens ranting about Socialism. (Guess they don’t collect Social Security or use Medicare.)
Don’t ya think if Bush supported universal healthcare it would have been praised as compassionate conservatism?

Why are those teabaggers taking socialist public transportation? Don’t they have any morals??
A girl I knew in college went to the tea party in DC over the weekend. She rails against creeping socialism and government takeovers, but she has taught in the public schools since she graduated from college. When I called her on getting all of her money as well as her health care from that socialist public school system, she said that if it were up to her, all schools would be private but she just does what she can with what she has in the meantime. Like there aren’t any other ways to make a living if you feel that strongly about socialism and taxes that you will deny benefits to others and advocate overthrow of the government.
Paula: I know a public school psychologist who’s against Obama, healthcare for all, even investing money in under-performing public schools. Yes, of course, he earns his income from public schools (and, frankly, some old family money) and gets his insurance from working for the public schools. You’re right: If these people are so offended by the use of taxpayer money for the masses stop taking taxpayer money as one of the masses.
Jason: The Teabaggers probably think that because they paid significantly for their Amtrak tickets it’s not public transportation. It’s Capitalism.
