These people are just sick!

I spotted my first Christine O'Donnell witch on Pennsylvania Avenue, wearing a black pointy hat with pouches dangling from it. "I have some tea bags with dollar signs on them, because corporations are funding the tea bag—the tea partiers," said Julie Gordon, who flew in from Green Bay, Wisconsin, to attend Jon Stewart's Rally to Restore Sanity with her daughter. Running through the crowd was a mock tea party activist in Revolutionary War garb, wielding the movement's iconic "Don't Tread on Me" Gadsden flag and shouting "Ohmygod Snake! Heelp! Scary snake!"
And up ahead was a group of zombies in bloodied Reagan '84 T-shirts and McCain-Palin hats, demanding "the braaaaiins of liberals" and posing for pictures as they lurched through the crowd. "It's a really dangerous moment," explained one of the Reagan zombies, George Federoke, a 20-year-old college student from West Virginia. "Maybe our clever costumes will convince people to vote!"
If the rally's get-up of choice was Ironic Macabre, the entire convergence felt like an afternoon spent in liberal purgatory, where disillusioned Obama supporters could expunge their frustrations with political hysteria and right-wing nuttery, drawing solace (and bemusement) from legions of others who felt similarly. "There's no way to revolt, because I feel it's so corrupt it's going to be really difficult to change," said Gordon. "I'm just getting discouraged and want to get more fired up again—we're all together and not going to them walk all over us."

Seems to me Zombie Reagan would do about 100 times better a job than Obumbles could ever hope to do.
But maybe their clever costumes will encourage people to vote!
“...a self-avowed member of the American Community Party, wielding a sign that read, “As an actual Community, I can tell you Obama isn’t one.” “
He must have worked for a long time to get that sign exactly right.
Right? He sure didn't spell 'communist' correctly.
These people are just sick!
I’m just stunned that anyone still reads Mother Jones, though from the two anemic posts in the comment section maybe no one does.
They are a brain damaged bunch,
I’ve met winos that would do a better job than Obumbles. While passed out. And, no, I’m not taking about Biden.
Let them have their fun now...in about 72 hours they won’t be very happy.
‘I’m just stunned that anyone still reads Mother Jones...’
It seemed fitting actually because today’s rally was like a bad throwback to Woodstock.
And I also thought that this wasn’t a very complimentary article for the left. If you’ve lost Mother Jones...

So worldly at age 20, Georgie Pooh
One day you might actually have to work and pay taxes
Real Americans will laugh at the fool’s, Then Tuesday they will fix the problem.

You’re right. The whole tone of the article was one of “Well, this didn’t amount to all that much.” From the hippie Sports Illustrated, that’s sayin’ something!
I’m just amazed how a 20-year old skull of mush would know what kind of president Reagan was.
Don't worry about the zombies. They'll starve if they only eat the brains of liberals.
bloodied Reagan '84 T-shirts
That was the spray from Mondale being pulped. It's like being in the first few rows of Gallagher smashing watermelons.
Just who were these people trying to convince or encourage? Seems like the crowd was a bunch of loonies singing to their own choir. Oh, I forgot...these people don’t go to church. So, who was paying any attention other than more loonies there? Looks like it was a “try to outdo each other with an uglier, more offensive sign/shirt/costume” party. Sad, sorry people. Maybe they got the rally date mixed up with Halloween??

Their original reporting is actually pretty good. Besides, it's good to have a source for Prius-driving, civil service type thinking. It's important to know what makes these pinheads tick, since there's so many of them.
