Given that my last post has video proof that O’Reilly is a douchebag, here is Roger Ebert’s take on the miscreant with the big mouth.

“But on the plus side, if Texas did secede from the Union, we could then invade them for the oil.”

– Jay Leno

So…more on the whole Texas secession concept. This is just the latest spin on disgruntled Texan behavior. It happened when I moved down in 1982 and spawned a militia during the 1990s.

Here’s a comedic look at this idiocy:

And here is a list of where Texas stands in relation to other states. It ain’t pretty. Five Thirty Eight lays out some other benefits to ditching the Lone Star State.

There isn’t much a chance for an independent Texas to improve things either. After we pull out the military bases, nuke bombers and MX missiles in the silos, there is going to be some pretty big unemployment. Since the US isn’t using the Houston Ship Channel and the Navy will be ditching Corpus Christi and the Air Force rides out of San Antonio – not to mention moving NASA – there are a lot of jobs leaving.

Plus, and this is key, apparently 35% of Texas’ income comes from – (drumroll) – American federal dollars. And yes, this is an amount far more than Texas pay in taxes.

Bonus fun: either the State Department is playing along or is just infested with Clintonite numbnuts but they had temporarily listed Texas as a foreign country recently.

Damn, if this keeps up I’m going to have to create a whole other category.

STILL more teabagging links. Sorry.

As I imagined, a lot of the asshats protesting for the rich last week were the same racist Palinite ilk we saw advertising their bigotry last year. Check out some of the images here for more proof.

In California, just for fun, racism had to compete with anti-Semitism.

You know, my father-in-law keeps trying to give Gabriel little plush elephants to turn him Republican. I know he’s a member of that party for economic reasons that haven’t made sense for decades. The ideas aren’t all bad, but the party obviously doesn’t push them. That said, at some point this trying to steer my son towards a racist, bigoted, Talibangelical point of view is eventually going to piss me off. Besides, he’s part Mexican, the GOP doesn’t want him.

On a lighter note, check out The Daily Show’s English correspondent John Oliver confronts some of the whack jobs in his own special way.

Still some tea left in the cup.

I think this article really addresses the teabagger issue. As usual, Bob Reich makes more sense than the supposedly knowledgeable Krugman.

Here we have someone honestly trying to reach out to the angry mob. Compelling argument for deaf ears I imagine.

Plus, some honesty on the whole bunch of shenanigans from Georgia.

A glimpse of what the fifth columnists are up to today:

Yep, they are teabagging. As Bob Cesca points out the majority of teabagging incidents are occurring in public parks and government grounds. You know, common areas for the common people. In short, they are protesting socialism in what are ostensibly socialist venues.

Then again, they are protecting taxes when most of them just started receiving the biggest middle class tax cut in American history.

Oh well.

If you are living a clean life and do not get the joke behind the dumbasses naming this a Teabagging Revolution, give the following a look. If you dare.

ooks like we’d better get Gabriel a passport sooner rather than later. Texas is apparently planning to secede and I for one want to be among the first to let them know to not let the door hit them where the good Lord split them.

This treasonous behavior is being cheered on by FAUXNews:

Look, I don’t know how many jobs our military employs in Texas, but I think it would serve the rest of the nation well if we took all of the tanks and helicopters out of Fort Hood, all of the fighters and bombers out of San Antonio and Wichita Falls, pull all of the MX missiles out of the Panhandle, and get the navy out of Corpus Christi. While they are leaving, we should pluck NASA out of Clear Lake and send their stuff over to Huntsville or out to California.

Why? One, they OBVIOUSLY hate Federal dollars in Texas so we should stop spending there. Two, frankly, I don’t think we should trust anti-Americans with high tech weapons systems, nuclear weapons, and a space program. I mean, they’re choices for secessionist president are two Bushes, Dick Armey, Tom DeLay, and the current tool Perry. Do YOU want any of these idiots with a nuclear weapon and the desire to hurt America?

Do you need more convincing that now is the time to cut Texas loose? Here’s some food for thought:

– In Texas schools, apparently you can’t score less than a 50 on your homework. In some schools, no less than 70. Yeah, you probably don’t even have to show up to school and still be able to graduate with a “D” average.

– Also in Texas schools, the state Board of Education is still trying to refute evolution and replace it with creationism. If their psycho state leaves, the rest of the nation won’t be as unduly influenced by their crazy hatred of science.

– Free speech is also dying in Texas. A city councilman was recently arrested for daring to challenge the installation of red light cameras in his town. He deigned to protest the violation of offenders’ rights and lost some rights of his own in the process.

I have family and in-laws there. I lived there for damn near five years. But honestly, that state is freaking fruit loops folks. If they want to cut and run, let them. Grab anything of value paid for with US tax dollars, blow up the roads and bridges at the borders and let ’em loose. Once we establish relations with the Talibangelical theocracy they put into place, I’ll take Gabriel to go visit the in-laws. Me and whatever pack of armed vets I can round up to protect my half-brown ass from the lynch mobs they’ll put in place.

Credit where credit is due, Paul Begala lays out exactly why the Republicans are idiots to go a’teabagging today.

Read this if you get a chance.

Once again, this would all be hilarious if it weren’t so sadly true.

You may remember earlier this year when I pointed out that KB Toys was planning on selling George Bush actions figures. Well, there’s apparently a “Top Gun” version too, amongst others. And to make it even worse, psychopathic hate monger Ann Coulter has her own doll. It apparently says some of the same demonic crap Linda Blair said in The Exorcist.

Speaking of clueless people, Saudi Arabia wants the world to pay OPEC subsidies should we ever stop using fossil fuels. Wait a minute…I already have a problem giving money to fundamentalist suicide bombers? You want me to do it on purpose?

How’s this for unfair? Employees at an auto supplier actually got taxed for their holiday bonus. Pathetic.

Speaking of pathetic, some morons decided to coin a phrase called “killographic” to explain violent video games.

Finally, I don’t know what’s worse: the story comparing us all to Paris Hilton or the one that says we are all nerds. Read, then decide for yourself.
