Bet this "joke" gives a lot of conservatives a big laugh

The front window of the Sumner County Democratic Party office in Gallatin, Tennessee was defaced on Monday with a bumper sticker that refers to President Barack Obama as a “bro” and First Lady Michelle Obama as a “ho.”

This is just the kind of humor conservative Tea Party types like best (and I've received plenty of it in e-mails from them).  They call themselves "patriots" but will vote for a man who won't show his tax returns and who keeps his money in off-shore accounts -- and sends jobs overseas, while declaring 47% of Americans are "looking for a handout and don't take responsibility for themselves."  Many Tea Party types are racist to the bone--and proud of it.  Then there are those who are racist but won't admit it and don't mind at all being lumped together in a political party with KKK and neo-Nazi white supremacists.  They don't believe global warming is due to human activity, even when Super Storms now rage at them in proof of the effects of our human behavior toward the planet.  They have their heads in a bubble of Fox Faux News and will eagerly vote against their own interests in order to get that big bad black man out of the White House. 

They breezily dismiss the fact that Obama inherited the worst mess of any president in history from the Bush's feeble-minded eldest son and his puppet master Cheney. They ignore the fact that the deficit handed to Obama, along with two wars and a tanking economy, was impossible for anyone to overcome (although Obama has made great strides in spite of their opposition) -- and they made it especially impossible by making the GOP congress sign oaths against raising taxes on the rich.  The GOP members of Congress were instructed for the last 4 years to vote against everything and anything Obama proposed -- even if it was the exact same plans they had originally proposed themselves! (How's that for cutting off your nose to spite your face?) 

And now they blame Obama for not being able to effect the Change he had promised.  He didn't count on the "patriots" to dump their own country in favor of ideology that will take America and its middle class down to where it can no longer rise.  This is what the Tea Party types call "patriotism."  Such ignorance and stupidity doesn't deserve a place at the country's table -- yet they have claimed the highest places at the table for themselves -- and want Romney to be their king. They long for him to start yet another war!  They will cheat and say the most outrageous lies that fly in the face of known facts, and they will even flip voting machine votes to accomplish their purpose (the Romney family actually has investments in the voting machines).  They and their "leaders" Romney and Ryan have no moral compasses. There is not even a vestige of decency and real patriotism to be found in today's shameless GOP ranks.  They will say anything, do anything, and claim anything in order to achieve their purpose. They have turned America's democratic republic into an oligarchy. This they call "patriotism."  Our country's founders are spinning in their graves at what our country and the Republican party has sunk to with its takeover by the Tea Party.   And they are taking us all down with them. Woe is us.
