This is my blog just for the Truth; Wisdom; Satire; and Comedy I come across on twitter. Its all part of the Tweet Stuff Progressives say Everyday On the #P2 Column of your Twitter World.
Socialism: Any of various political philosophies that support social and economic equality, collective decision-making, and public control of productive capital and natural resources
Teabaggers: A small cult of extremist who believe that ALL government is bad; Any government is too much. No one should have to pay any taxes. Any social responsibility for your fellow man is never a function of government. Rape, pillage, and plunder the earth's resources. Anything you don't like and/or is a Democrat idea must automatically be labeled Socialist and targeted for obliteration.
[Note: You see the stupidest thing on the #tcot hash tag or from the tcot's on the #P2 column. Every single time you see one of them yell 'SOCIALISM' as an adjective, adverb, or noun; it becomes abundantly clear how much they are clueless as to what it means. It becomes so annoying that after seeing such an excessive abuse of the word it finally made me snap off on them one day and this is how it all came out.]
“We must throw the Teabaggers down the WELL. Then my Country can be FREE!"
Hey Teabaggers: THIS is Socialism!

Another thing Teabaggers, We're keeping the flag since our blood fought for all that Socialism agains fascist like you
Teabaggers, since we're keeping our flag, you can keep your Confederate flag. It will make it easier to identify you
Just for the record Teabaggers: Our Constitution, Bill of Rights, Founding Fathers? ALL Socialist so GET YOUR OWN
Why Teabaggers can't be on our Socialist Internet>RT @whiteshot: TOILET PAPER, U should stop EATING it after USAGE
BTW Teabaggers; As per your 'Purity Test' Reagan was a REAL Socialist. But we're going to let you keep him
Hey Teabaggers: Government by nature is Socialist. Please restrict yourself to the Rushpubic of Teabagistan
Right now Teabaggers wondering where to go? I'm thinking we might have to go ahead give them Texas
[Right after that tweet went out I started getting some feedback from some Texas Progressives that were not at all willing to surrender the Lone Star State. So I ran a quick retraction to keep Texas for now. At the very least it will be a big bargaining chip for when we negotiate the divorce settlement]
RETRACTION: Teabaggers can't have Texas after all. You will have to stay put in your fantasy Rushpublic of Teabagistan
Teabaggers turns out we never did care for you guys so we've filed for a divorce. Cheer up, we're giving you Lieberman
Teabaggers: In the divorce we are also going to let you have both Wars AND the Patriot ACT (never were ours)
Divorce negotiations now underway with Teabaggers being represented by law firm of Dewey, Screwem, and Howe
Take an average teabagger, slap a beard on him and rewire his ideas from Christian Jihad to Muslim Jihad, and you have Osama Bin Laden.
Don't sweat it Teabaggers, we're going to give you entire Fox Network; you just can't use OUR Socialist airways
My collection of tweets 'Hey Teabaggers: This is Socialsim!' Now on "Tweet Stuff On #p2" http://bit.ly/cyNgOo
[PS: Please feel free to jump into the fun. If you have another tweet that needs to be added to this list, please let me know; I'll ADD it!]
His delivery is way too slick:" -GottaLaff "Laffy"
"For the record, I am not using any teleprompters today because I loaned them to President Obama,"
Jonathan Krohn said to laughter from the CPAC.
By GottaLaff Okay, once and for all: This is one of the stupidest memes since the genesis of memeology*. How it persists in light of HandNotes McAlsoToo is beyond comprehension.
Let's review: When you give a big important speech that will be watched by the entire world, "winging it", or even attempting to memorize it, would be reckless and not too wise.
Every word, every syllable is parsed. Experts in any given field use notes for speeches. Who wouldn't? More:
[*Definition of Meme: a pervasive thought or thought pattern that replicates itself via cultural means; a parasitic code, a virus of the mind especially contagious to children and the impressionable ] _____
The following tweet is one of several Tweets by @GottaLaff about her post. It was the one I saw first and the one that started me ranting on the 'Hand Palm' vs Teleprompter hypocrisy.
Its the most blatant of Teabagger craziness that has spilled over into the larger GOP and the Conservatives represented by the Carnival that is CPAC, the Conservative Political Action Committee.
It is a sideshow that has been eating on me since all of this foolishness showed up on the nets. So I was glad to see that GottaLaff or Laffy or anybody for that matter would show the obvious about what this debate is based on. Here's her tweet:
@GottaLaff:
“I had to rant: VIDEO: "Genius" 14-year-old speaker is back at CPAC, makes lame teleprompter joke” http://bit.ly/aZI2nm

From @larrydhalstead Yesterday I did a series of Stupid stuff GWB said but Obama using a teleprompter is heresy? Treason? http://bit.ly/aZI2nm
From: @vaspersthegrate Teleprompters are for morons. Odumba sealed his college records so we assume he flunked his classes.
[Note: Now comes the truth about Obama using the teleprompter for media press conference and not for 6th grade class in a whole other room. But don't try to tell that for won't let go of another reason to be an Obama Hater. This from @Coopster04 on this next tweet:] From @Coopster04 Did you see this debunking Obama using teleprompter with 6th graders that the #TCOT use all the time? http://bit.ly/8YHPyr
[Here's the photos from that link. Notice the room for the Press Conference has green carpet. The picture below it with the President speaking to the 6th graders has tan carpets and guess what's missing? THE TELEPROMPTERS!!! Those vary things that people likeStephen E. Streight aka @vaspersthegrate won't shut the hell up about already. And we haven't heard the last of Stephen yet.]
Press Conference = Green Carpet
6th Grade Class = Tan Carpet
Looky Teacher: No Telepromters
Any Questions students?
From: @vaspersthegrate: Obama's so stupid, he used teleprompters to speak to 6th grade students!
[Your not paying attention Stephen. Bad Student! Go sit in the corner.]
From: @OxyConservative: MUST BE LIKE A MENTAL 'SHINY OBJECT' TO THESE FOLK
[Ok, Stephen, just shut up now. You don't want to look at the pictures. You hate facts. You like being ignorant. We get it! Now just shut up for the rest of class so the 6th graders that ARE listening to the President speak WITHOUT a Teleprompter, can do the real learning that you keep showing us you are incapable of doing. Back in the corner. Put the dunce cap on. And NOT another word from you.]
From @larrydhalstead I took heat on Teabagger websites 4 my Palin's Hand Job Jokes. Now I think I need to write some more http://bit.ly/aZI2nm#p2 @GottaLaff
From: @vaspersthegrate: Obama's so stupid, he used teleprompters to speak to 6th [SHUT UP!] From @larrydhalstead: Here's one: "I'd rather have a teleprompter from Obama than a Hand Job from Palin" http://bit.ly/aZI2nm

He's a warmonger. :^( From @larrydhalstead @GottaLaff Go ahead, take a break, have some coffee. I'm all over this telepromter foolishness http://bit.ly/aZI2nm#p2 From: @vaspersthegrate: People, from pastors to Presidents, who read scripted speeches & sermons are dumb. Extemporize! Let the spirit flow! Be Authentic!
[Stephen, you just going all kinds of crazy now aren't you? Are you saying that Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, Martin Luther King's 'I have a Dream' speech are what? Big huge mistake on their parts? Do you know how long Lincoln poured over The Gettysburg Address? Someday Abe is going to kick your ass for that one.] From: @vaspersthegrate: Cut the puppet strings of your Overmasters! Throw away your teleprompters & canned speeches! Speak from the heart! If you have one....
[Professor 'Speech Class' Stephen, you done gone and lost your entire marbles on this whole teleprompter business. I'mma gonna have to leave you along now.] From @pancakes007: Is it #obama or #palin who thinks there are 57 states? #p2
[Sheeesh, another one. Stephen, is this your wife?] [NOTE: The Topic veers off in the direction of the stuff I see pop up from the tcots that I am now collecting for a post on the 'Stupid Stuff tcots Say'. Some of these comments are part of the tweets posted above] From @larrydhalstead: Turns out tweets that are addressed to Press Sec Gibbs are archived. I'm doing some archiving of my own!

From @Jaison96: - Scary? That is not the word to describe it. Frightening is the word. Or Holy F&$k! is the right word.
From @larrydhalstead: Everyday twitter teaches you NOT to debate the tcot lunatics. Either you let them win or they fly their planes into your house
From @larrydhalstead: @GottaLaff How's the coffee break? (Ps: Still not done with your teleprompter vs Hand Job post yet) #p2
