1. Hope he can keep a straight face

I know I couldn't. I'd probably be in hysterics.

[JNelson6563]

2. Awesome! Go Will!

Look forward to checking in on things. Thanks for posting the link annabanana!

3. I think he should take a survey of randomly selected baggers and ask them

(a) Do you work for a living?
(b) Why aren't you working now?
(c) Did you use public transportation to get to the Common today, parking is scarce in the area, so I'm guessing you took the T. . . right?
(d) How do you square your non-tax rhetoric with using public transportation to go to an anti-tax event?

[meegbear]

4. Hey, that's SUPER!

[peekaloo]

5. lol Constitution supporters railing against the Census.

He's correct...the stupid has landed.

[mod mom]

16. "Tranquility Base, the Stupid has landed"

:rofl:

[ShortnFiery]

17. I wish he'd find something better to do with his time. eom

[SidDithers]

19. It's his time, why do you care what he does with it?...

and, judging from the replies so far, he's providing entertainment to his readers. Surely, that's one of a writer's main purposes.

[ShortnFiery]

22. Because it's not the working class white teabaggers who are our TRUE ENEMIES.

It's not even "sport" to make fun of these folks.

I wish that the lion's share of us would stop making fun of "the ignorant" and focus our efforts on attacking their LEADERS.

[WilliamPitt]

41. (facepalm)

[ericinne]

20. I like it so far

Bookmarked the URL for the live blog. I'll read it tonight when I get off work. Hopefully the Medicare Militia hasn't corrupted him with their teahadist talibaptist rants of stupidity. He should go even deeper undercover and ware a tinfoil hat.

They are so strange:crazy:, is Obama a red or a Nazi?

10:25 a.m. - Just spent ten bucks on five buttons. I'm wearing the red one with the Soviet symbol replacing the "O" in "Obama." The others aren't as clever (koff), but I had to get the George W. Bush "Miss Me Yet?" one. I feel like part of the gang now. There is a speaker talking about the need to stay in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's a ball out here. Kill me.

Dana ; )

[DevonRex]

23. I hate people who say Obumma or Obummer. Dolts. nt

[bridgit]

24. I don't feel as good about this as allot of people do here - as Howard Fineman pointed out...

On Hardball the other night, and in response to Matthews' Q about there being no Dem rallies of any consequence anywhere while republicans are all over the map, 'Well its because Democrats are muted, lackadaisical, direction-less, nothing to say, etc...' so while it seems it to be a good thing following Palin around and doing what? Holding her feet to some mythological fire?

Heh, not judging by David Gregory's teethy twitterpated smile at the end of one of her clips the other day - totally mesmerized the boy was :eyes: So that now it now becomes decidedly incumbent for folks like Pitt, being a proper journalist; to report upon those moments in time when Palin just might say something truthful or be casted as part of the great LW lackadaisical muted...now isn't that a thought?

That she might as would a random processor actually say something truthful? If & When that is the case, Pitt must be compelled by professional standards to post that result as truthful as well - becoming then as a practical matter: Palin's mouthpiece - and that is the point at which, to *not* report something Palin has said as being somehow truthful; will become another divisive scourge upon the LW by the RW in that the stakes are higher than they seem

In that event; there's also a moment in time where Truthout would have to become TruthAboutIt. Or run the risk of having the RW co-opt every other LW intention right down to the Palin Tweet! But, you know...

Have fun William! I know the circus doesn't always come to my town every day either. I do hope there will be some beer involved somewhere for you & yours today. And where that is to be found the case hoist one for me

25. "Anti-baggers outnumber the teabaggers 3-1"

Ho-boy!? How do we cover that up?:hippie:

[GoCubsGo]

30. Too bad it won't get covered that way...

The M$M will report the anti-baggers as baggers, for sure.

[maddezmom]

26. "...ill, baby, dri.."

LOL!

[SidDithers]

29. Blessed are the cheesemakers?...

:rofl:

Sid

[hatrack]

27. This is perfect! The sound system's crapping out, no one can hear the Quittenator . ..

And people are starting to leave.

:rofl:

[Blue Diadem]

28. microphone/audio problems

:rofl:

[bullwinkle428]

31. It's completely falling apart!! How will Fox News edit this to make it

look like the "glorious rallies" that took place in Germany in the 1930s? Yeah - I went there! Fuck you, Godwin!

[DevonRex]

32. This is hilarious. Except for the baggers pushing protesters around. nt

[cilla4progress]

33. Laugh riot! Mike "quit out" on Palin!

Now she knows what it's like to be the "quittee"! Karma .... gotta watch out for it! And these are the people some want running things? Maybe they need to see if they can "run" a demonstration (and sound system) first!

Love it!

34. K&R

Thanks for posting the link.

Wonder what ridiculous number they'll use for crowd size.

I'm gonna go with Trigazillion. Cuz wasn't it a Gazillion last time? :crazy:

[one_voice]

38. Per MSNBC

Police unofficially put the crowd at around 10,000. I don't have a link, it was a guy reporting to Contessa Brewer.

[spanone]

35. dear will, shower for an hour after scrubbing with bleach concentrate

[hatrack]

36. Boston Teabagging - The Final Implosion - Freaking HILARIOUS

11:25 a.m. - OK, this is Boston, right? You'd assume someone told the 'Bagger organizers where they were, right? Wrong. They just closed the show with someone singing "New York, New York" by Sinatra, but with anti-Obama lyrics...except that's the song the Yankees play at the end of every home game, and the crowd of Red Sox fans here knows that full well. People reacted to the song like scalded cats, and in seconds, the singer had the Common almost completely to himself. You really can't make this stuff up. Cheers, and thanks for reading.

[chat_noir]

39. Lloyd Marcus singing

Twenty Ten by Lloyd Marcus

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZkvkLmkYVg


try not to laugh too much...omg...those lyrics

[krispos42]

37. I hope he has a stack of forms for withdrawing from Medicare.

I hope he stages a "Medicare-card-burning" event at the protest, too.

[LynneSin]

40. anti-'Bagger crowd outnumbers the Tea Partiers by at least three to one.

That's the kind of stuff that won't be reported on today's news.

and it pisses me off!

[underpants]

42. "Europe has fallen!"

is that Newspeak?
