Sign FAIL - "Tax Every Body"
chuckdevore.com ^ | July 1, 2009

Posted on 07/02/2009 11:37:27 AM PDT by Lou Budvis

One of Chuck's staffers is live in Sacramento. He reports:

"I'm standing on the west steps of the CA State Capitol right now, and there's a huge SEIU rally underway, opposing the budget cuts that will make SEIU a neutered force in politics -- and none too soon. There are literally thousands of purple-clad 'workers' here."

Notice the sign in the back "I CAN'T MAKE IT - TAX EVERY BODY!"

Great pic at the link of a protestor at a SEIU rally holding that sign.(Sorry Freepers, but I'm not tech savvy enough to post the pic. I hope someone else will do it.)

The people depicted need a “touch-o-the-cat’. If administered with love the lashing may make them better people.

I know someone who, er, has those skillz... she’s kind of expensive for that sort of thing, but maybe we could take up a collection.

These rallies would be prime spots to check immigration status, if we were still interested in that sort of thing.

I see a lot of people in that pic who would look really good in orange.

I think it says:

"My job as a state employed sex therapist for Hindi speaking transgendered inmates with dyslexia is absolutely essential."

They should all go on strike. Isn’t that what unions do?

I can’t read the red letters, but I imagine it might say: “Another mama for 0bama.”

“Administrated with “love”??? Ookayy. I was thinking of a different type of “cat-of-nine-tails”.

I was once shown a real one in an antique shop once, and these days I would make one out of a sawed off broom handle, duct tape, fishing line, and split shot fishing weights. However, I would give them far less than 500 lashes, like the Iranians did recently.

Do you suppose the “Tax Everybody” sign is a PROTEST WARRIOR sign?

For those you REALLY “love”, wouldn’t fish HOOKS be better than split shot? They’d stay on the line, for one thing. Maybe those little #12 ones they make for salmon eggs.

Plus, with hooks, the whipper would get a better workout... you’d have to yank back hard on the return stroke to pull those barbs through the flesh and back out.

Just my 9 cents worth...

No. Your way the line would get tangled up too much, and the hooks tould often hit the wrong way. (no barbs hitting the skin) Balls of shot, work better. (I think, not having done any such thing)

You sick puppy (he says, with a tone of respect and admiration.)

Clearly you have thought this thing through... I defer to your superior judgment!
