I’m looking forward to the day they start bringing giant puppets to Tea Party protests.
The father of grassroots movements, something they claim to follow and support, and their heads explode. This must be like when I see constant tea partiers with pictures of Thomas Paine on their facebooks, when Thomas Paine’s views are more or less my own.
Wait, I thought the American Revolution was about establishing our individual liberties so we could create a repressive, xenophobic, anti-intellectual theocracy? Was I wrong?
If you see Teabaggers with Paine pictures .. it’s a fair bet they are Glenn Beck fans
