Very Angry White People

So I drove to the St. Clairsville Mall in Ohio today to hit a couple stores, and I drove across a crowd of very, very, angry white people:



I couldn’t get better pictures because when I saw all the War on Coal signs, saw the Romney/Ryan bus (which you can barely make out on the far left there), something in me made me drive by honking my horn yelling “FOUR MORE YEARS and “OBAMA/BIDEN 2012.” After the third trip by being belligerent, I couldn’t even hear the speaker ranting about the 14th amendment (was Rush talking about that this week?) I was getting booed so much. Pro-tip: Driving with multiple Obama stickers as well as a WV Public Radio sticker and stickers that say “I’ll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one” on a Subaru honking it’s horns and terrorist fist jabbing while yelling FOUR MORE YEARS will make you persona non grata at a Romney rally. I had fun, anyway.


Turns out the teahadists were doing this all over the state of Ohio:


Tea party members geared up for the upcoming election with rallies Saturday in Harrison and Belmont counties.

Crowds of people listened to discussion about the top issues candidates will face come November.


An Ohio Congressman and candidates on the campaign trail sent out a bold message about the so-called “war on coal” and mandates from the Affordable Care Act.


One tea party member said he believes certain liberties are being threatened.


“It’s not necessarily a freedom of religion or freedom of speech that we can fight that, or at least voice our opinion of that,” said Barry Momyer, a rally organizer in Harrison County, in reference to the contraception mandate. “But also that they are going to force them to do it.”


So I guess we now know that the Romney campaign is coordinating with what ever PAC is supplying the war on coal posters. On the upside, I really actually prefer all my angry white people out in public screaming than sitting at home cutting holes in their pillow cases for the Klan rally. So I guess we got that going for us.


Plus, if I gave one of these 70 year old fascists a heart attack, my work is done.
