Teabaggers gutted the Town budget this weekend and their reasons

[Raven]

are fascinating. Here are some of them based on a very long discussion I had with one of their leaders today:

government is bad and cannot be trusted

abortion

because "they" took the 10 Commandments out of the schools

That's it folks... now, when I asked the guy how we could maintain public safety services, I was told that Fire would just have to respond to fewer emergencies. I then asked how he would decide who got the EMT's...would we cut responses to people 55 and older on the theory that they had lived a good part of their lives? Would we cut based on income? Would we cut on the basis of religious belief? All of the above, according to him, as long as they responded to his call.

So there you have it. This guy is a community leader and we, as a society, are in real serious trouble. And where are the good, decent, thinking people in Town??? Hiding out...they don't know how to fight this crap...not a clue.
