Send ASTROTURF and teabags to Pelosi and your Congresscritter
Vanity

Posted on 04/16/2009 10:39:48 AM PDT by Oscar the Grouch

I just saw Pelosi on the news. I couldn't believe her sneering at the tens of thousands of tea party participants, saying that the tea parties weren't a grassroots movement, but was an artificial "Astroturf" movement that was bought by nameless unknown parties.

Let's show Pelosi and our Congresscritters how much we care. I plan to snip a 1 inch square of my artificial turf doormat and mail it and a teabag to Speaker Pelosi, and to my elected "representative". Wbat a great way to protest her snide statement!

I hope everyone will join me. Go out and buy a doormat or somehow get a piece of artificial turf. Let's send Congress enough Astroturf so that they won't need to spend any tax dollars on recarpeting the Capitol for a few years!!!

I saw a short clip of Nancy Pelosi saying this on the news yesterday.

QUESTION: DOES SHE THINK WE'RE DUMB LIKE HER? Gees.

Take it from a Fake Catholic, with more Fake body parts than robocop.

Sorry Nancy, too many real Americans saw the truth cause they were THERE! We know how we got there, and why! I guess you should stop removing the collagen from BO’s butt and stop speaking. You look like Bagdad Bob!

***Go out and buy a doormat or somehow get a piece of artificial turf.***

It will be a waste of time. After the Anthrax scare all mail is checked and anything objectionable is removed before it goes to the Congresspersons.

Don’t mail any object to congress. It won’t get to them.

If our tea parties are astroturf, then what do community organizers do?

That’s a fact. But you can send the tag and string. Mail the label on the back of the mat.

That’s a good point.

Whatever happened to all those bricks that got sent to Washington to build the wall?

“The DC organizers still have 1 million tea bags they need to disperse.”

You know how they tie ribbons to those wrought iron fences, maybe we should tie the teabags to the fences the same way ribbons are tied to the those very same fences.
