Its a Teabagger Jihad: White Evangelical Protestants & Muslim Extremists



They're Cousins, Identical Cousins Don'tcha Know. 
Take this simple test to see if you can spot the difference.



A new study from the Pew Research Center shows that White evangelical Protestants are roughly five times more likely to agree with the Tea Party movement than to disagree with it.

By contrast, American Jews are nearly three times as likely to disagree with the movement.
Tea Party supporters are "much more likely than registered voters as a whole to say that their religion is the most important factor in determining their opinions on ... social issues" like abortion and same-sex marriage, according to the Pew analysis.

"They draw disproportionate support from the ranks of white evangelical Protestants," the analysis said of the Tea Party.

You've got to be carefully taught.


You've got to be taught
To hate and fear,
You've got to be taught
From year to year,
It's got to be drummed
In your dear little ear
You've got to be carefully taught.
You've got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made,
And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade,
You've got to be carefully taught.
You've got to be taught before it's too late,
Before you are six or seven or eight,
To hate all the people your relatives hate,
You've got to be carefully taught!

Arizona TeaBaggers Oppose Trash Collection Change. "Recycling is Socialism"


According to AZ Central

A decision by the Fountain Hills Town Council to hire a single trash hauler and begin a curbside recycling program has been met with angry protests from residents who accuse town leaders of overstepping their bounds and taking a leap toward socialism.

Little known fact. Trotsky was big on recycling.

Marx and Engels? Yep, you guessed it, recyclers.

Stalin.... Stalin was a HUGE booster. Had a seven-year plan just to implement recycling.

Guy was a fanatic about it.

And don't even get me started on Lenin.



Hitler.... well, not so much.
