The Tea party rallies are all too much about hating Obama

Quick post on the "we don't hate Obama, really" teabag/ 9/11 rallies. How do I say this, have they gone beyond nuts? Here are some of the signs at a 9/11 rally.

A sign with the mustache of Adolf HitlerAdolf Hitler imposed on Obama.

A sign that said, "Traitors Terrorists Run our government."

A sign that said, "Don't blame me, I voted for The 'American."

One that read, "Obama Bin Lyin."

Heck, at lest I should be happy that they didn't compare President Obama to Charles MansonCharles Manson or Jeffrey Dahmer. At least not yet.

The rightwing states that these rallies are about taxes and 9/11 but they end up about hating Obama. Strange, the right after 9/11 said we had to get behind the president and now the point that they take away from these rallies is to say Obama is an illegal alien. On one hand Obama is a marxist commie socialist ruskie and the next he is a bomb throwing Muslim who wants to impose Islamic law. What's next, Obama is a monarchist? Wait, I think they have said that one too. It's hard to do parody when the other side is actively engaged in doing that to their movement. I don't believe that opposition to Obama makes one a racist but if a person calls Obama a Muslim it is sometimes (though not all) code words for racism. Muslim means different (and that is the worst sin among the far right) and different is bad according to them.

There is controversery in kids being possibly told that they dont' have to say the pledge of allegiance. What's wrong with that? Kids don't have to recite the Pledge ,and if one place is the place to educate kids about what rights they might or might not have, isn't it in schools? Let's foster a debate if in a free nation we should even have a pledge in the first place.


Lastly, it has come out that Joe "you're a liar" Wilson is a member of the Sons of the Confederate Veterans. This is not surprising because I believe in the state of South Carolina one is legally required to join this organization. One is also required to disdain Manhattan liberals and dislike "Will and Grace." Wait, do they allow reruns of "Will and Grace" in South Carolina? If you are from South Carolina please leave a comment if that is in fact true. I will appreciate it and so wil bored gay South Carolians with nothing to watch on the television.
