Teabagger: High-speed rail jobs "would probably have just gone to illegal Mexicans"
I heard some Teabagger defending Rick Scott's decision to reject federal money for high-speed rail in Florida, effectively killing the project. When it was pointed out that this project would have created nearly 24,000 jobs, their reaction was "oh well, most of those jobs would have gone to illegal Mexicans".

This is the fucking attitudes we are dealing with here in Florida. These are Rick Scott's supporters, the ones directly responsible for putting him in office.

3. The only reason for that is...
The teabagger is busy living off his government entitlements and social security, can't get his fat, sagging ass off the couch long enough to get a beer, let alone do anything useful, and doesn't feel like he should have to work at anything except pulling on those size 6 sweatpants over his size 18 ass (with props to the author of that comment).

4. Yup. The problem is too many jobs for people who aren't me.
Embrace the madness. Watch as the US self-immolates on the bonfire of the stupidities. Bring marshmallows!
