** The Official Teabagger Nashville Fundraiser Watch Thread **

[Clio the Leo]

You can see all the fun and games here...
http://www.pjtv.com/page/Tea_Party_Convention/148/

No one is speaking now, but the last speaker dealt with voter registration drives. Spent most of the time talking about ACORN and dead voters (because, ya know, Obama won in '08 because ACORN managed to fake 10 million votes from the deceased) and seemed to have NO idea what "OFA" was. Seriously.

There was a great deal of talk about purging voter rolls to try and remove these zombie Obama voters but she refused to go in to great detail because "we dont know WHO is out there listening." (Like David Plouffe is sitting at his computer with a pen and paper taking notes or something.)

She also blamed the entire "Democrat" party for women not having the vote because US Grant was President at the time that Susan B Anthony began her movement. She seems to think he was a Democrat when, in fact, he was a Republican (civil war! Hello!)

I didn't catch her name, but she's from Smartgirl politics.

One of my Twitter-crush bloggers, Dave Weigel is spying reporting from the event. Here is a pic he took from the media room (there's no one there.)


I'm off today and it's a yucky rainy day. I think it's a good day to camp out in my PJs and watch this whole charade. I'll keep you updated. ;)

1. That media room is a riot! WOW. Looks like it could be way more entertaining than I thought!

I'll bake some cookies and we can veg on the sofa and talk trash. Good?

[Chipper Chat]

14. Reminds me of that ugly green background McCain "used"

in some of his appearances and ads. Depressing.

[Maru Kitteh]

16. How lonely is that television all the way back there? Looks like 200 yards of open field!

YAY Teabaggers! You really know how to show us a good time!

[Chipper Chat]

52. The wall is the color of Sarah Palin's blood.

Green, slimy, and cold.

[unapatriciated]

54. ah but that ugly green background made for some funny stuff.

McCain didn't realize he was providing the perfect green screen.

[Sheltiemama]

50. Perhaps if they had let state media in, it would look better.

They're interested only in national media, and as a member of the Tennessee media, that pisses me off. Not a smart move, guys, because guess what our story tomorrow is focusing on?

[The_Casual_Observer]

2. Sounds like a forum for far right-wing reactionary AM radio talk show banter

Illegal Aliens, Gay Marriage, Labor Unions, Guns, "the Deficit", abortion on Demand, public prayer.

[bobburgster]

Thanks so much for your thoughtfulness!

I really appreciate you starting "The Official Teabagger Nashville Fundraiser Watch Thread". I was worried I might miss an earth-shattering proposal that would cure all our countries problems.

:sarcasm: Yes, mine is spillng over today!

[Maru Kitteh]

9. Some of us like to point and laugh at the right-wing dingle-berries. Don't want to? HIDE THREAD.

Sheesh.

[bobburgster]

49. Huh, who said hide it?

[northofdenali]

58. I think maybe the irony/sarcasm thing didn't get understood.

Rock on Clio! The pic is :rofl: and reminds me of the freeper "counter-demonstration"............. 4 RWnutjobs and an outhouse........

[bobburgster]

59. No problem...

7. Is that the conference room?

All the chairs facing the walls so they don't have to look each other in the eye when they lie.

:rofl:

[Clio the Leo]

10. Now some pudgy kid....

... who looks to be about 23 is going to address us on the Next Generation of Conservative Activism. He's "Young Americans for Freedom" Exec Dir.

Now, I'm sorry for calling him "pudgy" but you have to admit there's a trend among .... them people.

And now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go eat some more Hamburger Helper. :)

[Clio the Leo]

22. Well, the pudgy kid was reasonably sane and intelligent...

.... talked about how he'd organized his campus against a proposed CA law that would limit the size of the TV you can purchase (to conserve energy) and they rallied supporters by tapping into the gamers.

Get him to lose a few ... change his political slant and we could use him. :)

[philly_bob]

11. Interesting site, PJ-TV. Looks like $5/month to watch RW blather.

Worth it for amusement and opposition research?

[Clio the Leo]

[tridim]

13. Is there any way to watch without registering at PJTV?

[Emit]

17. They're off on a tangent now about going into the schools and checking text books

to make sure there is no liberal bias in the texts - tax payers rights to check in on the way their kids are being educated - talking about the need to bring in more conservative teachers and to check the text books.

Talking about the liberal bias of high schools and colleges, how civic classes require students to go and volunteer for abortion clinics (!)

updated to continue...

Left leaning organizations lead to the decay of America.

[Roland99]

18. So, a liberal bias in school textbooks is bad, a conservative bias is good.

Wowsers.

[Emit]

20. Yes, of course, because Left leaning organizations lead to the decay of America.

dontcha know?

:D

[Maru Kitteh]

26. civic classes require students to go and volunteer for abortion clinics

[Emit]

[Clio the Leo]

35. Says "a McCain Presidency would have been a DISASTER..."

(Matthew 6:5)

[Clio the Leo]

37. Says the NY23 election sent a message to the GOP...

.... of course it might have sent an even BETTER message had the teabagger actually won.

"we wont accept liberal Republicans"

[Clio the Leo]

38. homeboy is STRAIGHT up out of "Mississippi Burning" central casting...

.... scary scary.

(and *I* am a white person FROM Alabama, so that's saying something!)

[Clio the Leo]

39. "our borders have been opened to terrorists who now roam among us!"

.... well, at least until the Obama-led FBI arrested them.

[Clio the Leo]

41. Now says that "Obama is trying to destroy our American heritage..."

"by promoting the homo-sex-yuls."

Cites apologies to Muslims and bowing to the Saudi king as further proof that he's the anti-christ.

Oh and he was too smug when he said "I won."

Again, this would be "Bu-RACK O'buma" he's talking about.

[Sheltiemama]

51. He actually said he's the anti-christ?

[Clio the Leo]

Who wants to bet that the T.V. in the back corner is tuned to faux news?

[Clio the Leo]

48. They're having a little round table discussion now...

.... again threatening the GOP against going "too liberal."

No idea how this applies to their new pro-choice, government-run health care supporting superstar Scott Brown.

[Emit]

tea partiers in DC back in September - remember that claim?
