What a real rightwing conservative says about teabagging:
"The irony of these protests is that federal revenues as a share of the gross domestic product will be lower this year than any year since 1950."

-conservative policy analyst Bruce Bartlett

Poor rightwingnuts; Fox "News" has used and abused and conned & duped & tricked you all. Again.

You just won't learn. :shrug:

1. But Junior's tax cuts generated more revenue, right?
Due to the enormous prosperity that we are resultantly benefiting from right now? I'm pretty sure that's the way they said it would work.

2. Well, if President Obama hadn't invaded Iraq, we wouldn't be in a deficit at all.

3. Yeah, and he caused the Obama recession too.
The one that started a year before he became president.

4. * Sigh * They don't make any sense at all.
How sad a life it must be to be an angry, uneducated right-wing wacko, enslaved by Fox "News" and trapped in a prison of ignorance. I almost feel sorry for the poor fools.

5. Unfotunately, this makes perfect sense to them...
In their distorted reality, you raise federal revenues by lowering taxes. Obama is giving us the biggest tax increase ever in this quadrant of the galaxy so obviously federal revenues will decrease.

Try explaining otherwise to them, ugh...

:crazy:
