Teabaggers, Their Tiny Brains Filled With Hate Talk Radio Nonsense, Are Now Coming After Republican Congressmen
>
From the beginning of the Republic, the kind of conservative assholes who now call themselves Tea Partiers-- but were originally known as Loyalists or Tories and took up arms against the Patriots who fought the Revolutionary War-- were not just willing, but eager to see democratic government die. And they still are today. In the video above between mainstream conservative Aaron Schock and his constituents, including more than a few brainless teabaggers, the 'baggers demand that Schock commit to voting against any bill that includes funding for the Affordable Care Act. They insist Schock vote to close down the government rather than vote to fund Obamacare. "If you’re going to take a hostage," Schock says, "you gotta be willing to shoot it.” One of the 'baggers quickly demanded, "that's ok, kill it." But Schock isn't willing to make the commitment and to bow to the threats being hurled at him.
Far right Republican Party front groups like FreedomWorks, Club For Growth and DeMint's Heritage Action PAC are already threatening Republicans who aren't towing the line-- including shutting down the government. Schock implies that they're all a bunch of Fox News and Hate Talk Radio zombies without the intellect to understand anything that hasn't been drummed into their heads by Limbaugh and Hannity.
Club for Growth has already announced they are looking for a Tea Party candidate to primary Schock. Why Schock? It isn't because he's a closeted gay or even because he's supporting comprehensive immigration reform (including a pathway to citizenship).
Aaron Schock likes to portray himself as a defender of economic freedom, but his record is not consistent with that portrayal. His website claims that he’s focused on “fighting the massive expansion of government spending and debt.” However, one of the first votes Schock took in the House was against cutting all of the spending projects from Obama’s failed $800 billion stimulus bill, joining only 43 Republicans. He voted for the August 2011 debt limit deal that gave Obama a $2.1 trillion increase in the national debt, and he’s been a consistent supporter of keeping Davis-Bacon wage requirements for federal projects, nothing but an anti-free market giveaway to big labor.Lucky for Schock, Nancy Pelosi reappointed the least competent DCCC chair in that body's history, Steve Israel, who isn't even bothering to recruit a candidate to run against Schock.
CHECK THE RECORD:
• Voted to increase the debt ceiling by $2.1 trillion.
• Voted for a budget extension that funded ObamaCare
• Voted to keep all of the spending in Obama’s stimulus
• Voted for the "fiscal cliff" deal that raised tax rates and delayed automatic spending cuts
• Repeated votes against the budget proposed by House conservatives.
• One of only 13 Republicans to vote against blocking funding for a National Labor Relations Board lawsuit that would have infringed on a worker’s right to a secret ballot in union elections.
• One of only 41 Republicans to vote against cutting $1.2 million from the Botanic Gardens.
• Repeated votes for Davis-Bacon wages on government projects, which are nothing but giveaways to Big Labor.
• Voted against numerous spending cuts that would have reduced the size of government (Link)
Funny, another Republican-- also a closet case-- North Carolina's Patrick McHenry, was also given a hard time by the 'baggers at a town hall meeting he called this week. And across the state another conservative Republican was being pummeled by 'baggers who demanded he get behind the concept of shutting down the government. They brought them on themselves and they certainly deserve it. The only thing that would make it sweeter is if 'baggers started bringing guns to the meetings and shooting these Republicans who voted against sane gun control policies.

I'm sure Howie is just being provocative here, and it it would be one ironic Karma fruit basket.
Well done.
