Let the Mocking Continue! Sinfonian, Teabagging In Paradise!
So my buddy Sinfonian from the Blast Off blog went to a Fox News, FreedomWorks, teabagging party today. And of course he told people the truth and was roundly booed. That's gratitude for ya!
It's almost like they didn't WANT to hear the truth.
I didn't attend any of the Bay Area teabagging parties because I know that the right-wing KSFO listeners are really right on the edge of violence and I didn't want to be a target, what with my DFH shirt and all.
As I predicted, a fight did break out at the SF event. And as I also predicted a caller to KSFO said that it was "Acorn types" that started it. I should have further predicted Brian Sussman's comment on the scuffle, because I think he might read my blog. I like to show off my mind reading capability because it gives me geek cred. I did predict that the ACORN types would get blamed by "getting in the faces" of the real American and the real Americans just had to respond. "I had to punch him Mom, he called me dirty word!" What did he call you honey? "A conservative."
It is actually hilarious how the right seems to think that we operate like they do. The projection of their tactics, view points and ideas on others is constant and boringly predictable.
They like to say that any PR is good PR. I disagree. The tea-bagging protest did get media coverage, but it was easily mockable and showed how pathetic and disjointed their messages are. And yet I try not to get complacent. You do not turn your back on these people.
Many of them are on a hair trigger. These people have guns with ACTUAL triggers -- it's not a safe situation. They don't even bother to suggest they aren't going to kill people. They want us to know they are just about ready to snap--with gun in hand. They say those guns are to stop an out of control government or home intruders, but it's funny how energized they are now when under Bush the Bill of Rights became the Bill of 9 suggestions and one right-the Almighty 2nd Amendment!
I'm proud of Sinfonia for getting up and having his say, I gave him some advice on what to say, but his delivery and timing was all his. Well done! I forget to be funny sometimes when I'm dealing with the right wing because they are very serious with their anger. So I'm pleased he was able to make it funny and true at the same time. I'm also glad that nobody decided that he was threatening him and had to "stand their ground".
Live Long and Prosper Sinf.

Great post, and much better said than I could have. Linked to you at Heroes Of The Revolution.

Spocko: Please feel free to help yourself.
I thought Sinfonia's rant was masterful, and really put the wood to the idiots out there "protesting." Or whatever it was they were doing. I'm not sure they even knew.
Completely off-topic: I sent you an email a week or so back about a gift I have for you from the Freewayblogger, and have not seen a reply. Did you get the message? I'd appreciate a follow-up, if possible. If you didn't see it, or don't remember, just drop me a line and I'll resend. Thanks!

Thank you, Spocko, for your kind words. YOU'RE the hero for taking on KSFO. I only said something for a minute ... you did your thing, well, you're STILL doing it.
And thanks for your advice, too. Never thought I'd have occasion to put it to use ...
(P.S. It's "Sinfonian," with an "N" at the end. ;) )
