The Anti-Healthcare Teabaggers FLOPPED in Napa,CA.
The local Republican teabaggers came, chanted, yelled and FLOPPED. They wore lapel stickers that I took pictures of and post the clearest one in the body of this post.
The organizers and funders of these events hope that no one will publicize their racism and hate.
Congressman Mike Thompson (D CA-01) attended a healthcare discussion sponsored by a group of HORRORS! Community Organizers.
One thing that helped the event organizers was that the event was held in a church building. The pastor was there to help keep things calm. There will be little publicly distributed video of an event where the teabaggers were kept under control, but I have some.
I am pretty far to the left of Mike Thompson, who is a self-identified 'Blue Dog' Democrat, but I admired him yesterday evening. He gave no ground to teabagging wingnutz.
Make the jump, this pic will make you sick.
Here's What Teabaggers Really Stand For:
There are two ways to view this image. (1) a reference to the 'Joker' in the Batman movie, and (2) as Obama in whiteface as a minstrel show clown.
This is dogwhistle racism.
These lapel stickers along with the usual 'Yelling Points Memos' and instructions on how to disrupt a public gathering were being distributed before the healthcare meeting attended by Mike Thompson (D CA-01) on Monday, Aug 3rd, 2009.
Republican Nirvana means folks with minds like this would be allowed to choose which Americans are good-enough to be allowed to speak in public without fear.
These are Scary Sick People who must not be allowed to 'win'.
