Note to winguts: When you decide to draw up a sign accusing others of being incompetent or, you know, "morans," (or demanding that immigrants use the "offical language") you might want to double-check your spelling. Contrary to what you might be hearing, dictionaries don't hate America.

nah.! just a dumb breeder.
by dumb breeder, do you mean
they breed thru the backdoor
and hope it falls out the front?
Do these people understand what "tea-bagging" means?

Let me guess they are redefining the term for clean family fun the Republicans like it with little Suzy and Johnny.
Next they'll redefine felch as a green way to clean up around the school yards.
To that guy with the "MORANS" poster a few years back.
Priceless!
Dictionaries don't hate America, but are written by the "Liberal Elite", therefore dictionaries are irrelevant.
the truth has a distinct left wing bias. you cannot be expected to spel competnce wen your' a moran.
Obviously good grammar has a left wing bias.
"Anyone that makes less than $150K in this country, has no business voting Republican."
I ain't Irish!
Of course, maybe that wouldn't be so bad:

You don't see the irony (which I find quite delicious) in somebody pointing a finger at the President and calling him incompetent, without even being competent enough to spell-check?
Ah, well... More delicious irony for me! :-)

For too long we have been "ruled" by an elite composed of mediocre assholes with unmitigated sense of entitlement.
... saw a sign at a protest in San Francisco: FIVE YEARS TO MANY.
Are you kidding? I'm personally very pleased that I can finally many.
It's the irony not the spelling. If the sign you saw had said 5 YEARS TO MANY FOR THAT IDOIT BUSH it would be a fair comparison.
She probably fears the "Liberal" use of vowels.

I'm so glad to see your posts over here. I am a big fan of yours and you never fail to give me a good laugh. The 2008 election night live blogging was a blast. Keep up the good work.
effin rich idiots
That's the sad part. Most people aren't. Rich, that is.
If I remember correctly, the misspelled "picket" sign. I think they spelled it "pickutt" or something like that.
what a dnce.

Don't you know that Dictnries have a libral bias!
Reminds me of the guy in Florida that put the "Obama is a muslin" sign on his yard.
HA! I don't think I heard about that one. If Obama is a Muslin I guess McCain's a polyester double-knit.
how the 1%ers get the villagers to do their dirty work for them, int it?
As the wingnuts told the protesters during the Bush administration, it's a free country, so if these teabaggers don't like it they can leave! I'm sure there's a nation somewhere eager to accept bottle-blonde McMansion Moms in their cable-knit J. Crew sweaters even if they ARE illiterate Republican authoritarians.

Poor people protesting taxing the rich...who mostly got rich by stealing everyone's money is pretty funny.
What's also funny? Calling Obama a socialist while he's giving all our money to the Uber rich.
America has some pretty stupid people in it. FEMA should build some camps to put them in.
all this time i was understanding that some of the money to the "rich" was loans. i guess i better watch the henry paulson deception....i meant the BUSH deception oh yeah your into the obama deception
As the saying goes, when you owe the bank $100K, they own you. When you owe the bank $10 million, you own them. Well, these banks owe us TRILLIONS, so guess who owns us?

I think you have a romanticized version of what socialism actually does to a society.. (Clokes elitist rule with lip-service towards humanitarian virtues, while threatening you with incarceration would you dare not give away your earnings to people who did not earn them.)

Don't get me wrong, I dig C&L and check in multiple times daily. But I have been surprised by the frequency of grammtical and spelling errors and mostly mixed up word order in the articles on this site. They mostly seem to me like the kind of errors that come from a lack of proof reading.
i'm personally going to give c&l a break vs. the fun with someone who was challenged with a sign consistening of 6 words for public awareness.
But were they incompentently pointing out another's incompetence?
Additionally, I've been to sites we're you're lucky if they update once a month.

top 2%.
Of course, they are very influential now that they own nearly 90% of the wealth. Imagine the tea they're using to protest. They probably wouldn't give that Jasmine Downy Pearls tea at Pete's to their servants, much less waste their piss on it.
even protesting about? Do they know? The one that has the top rate going up a few % or so in a few years? They probably could not tell you.
but Hannity told me it was a socialist plan... And I'll be damned if I let a socialist take control of this country. (sarcasm)
What's new? Everyone knows that Reslugs are certainly uneducated, dumb-Asses, after voting for Dumbya.
Relugs surely have a monopoly on dumb-blonds that obviously flunked out of grade school.
Every time I see that picture of that moran in the Cardinal T-shirt holding the Moran sign, I shudder. I'm from St. Louis, and I am a Cardinal fan. We're not all Morans!
So...we're simply trying to clarify the percentage of the population that is? ;o)
"Anyone that makes less than $150K in this country, has no business voting Republican."
Actually, living in Missouri, I know there are lots and lots of Morans in this state.....after all, McCain won Missouri the Moran state by some 3000 votes.
Not to mention also that fat boy is from Missouri, he must have a pretty big following among his home-town bretheren. Helping to dumb down his state so that he can feel superior to everyone when he visits.

Yeah, every time I drive from St. Louis to Memphis to visit my sister and her family, I have to drive through Cape Girardeau, where Rush the Pig Limpballs is originally from. I am tempted every time to try to find his boyhood home and take a dump in his front lawn.
With all due respect to people who live in this part of Missouri (the boot heel), and with all due respect to people who live in Arkansas, here's a joke: What would happen if you annexed the boot heel of Missouri with the state of Arkansas? You'd increase the I.Q. of each state by 20 points!
You mean that Rush's hometown has a French name.... I think that town should be completely boycotted, lol. (jk of course) Well, at least not boycotted because it's French, maybe boycotted because of Rush though, that's fine

She is not smart at all
Look if we're trying to show what morans wing-nuts are, then we ought to use evidence that actually supports our claim. And i'm afraid this picture doesn't measure up. Okay, so she forgot the second "e". Oh wow, what moran would forget the second "e".
I think it's fairly obvious that in this case the poor wing-nut woman ran out of room and so, like any reasonable person, decided to remove the second "e" knowing that people would still be able to understand her intent. If she had spelled the word "compatnce" that would be one thing--but she didn't. So rather than publicize crappy examples of the argument that wingnuts are morans (which I happen to believe is true), find examples that actually prove your point. Otherwise, you just end up looking like a mean-spirited captain of the "gotcha" police.
actually it looks more like the 'e' was omitted for lack of space ... poor planning and failure to think ahead ... kind of like the last 8 years.

Excellent post!
Rothbard > Rothschild
then it means she wasn't smart enough to plan out her sign before she started writing on it. Kinda like Repugs and their "shoot first, devise exit strategy later" method. I mean, c'mon, what kinda idjit just grabs a piece of posterboard and starts scribbling...oh.

A "reasonable person" wouldn't be making a stand about competence when she is, in fact, incompetent and is displaying it.
Besides, C&L is obviously not a bipartisan forum. There is evidence up and down this website of nut-jobs, and this happens to be funny. I think you need to find some humor in such dark times.
"______ not my wealth!"
"Member of top 2% says: not my wealth!"
"You can touch my titties, but not my wealth!"

I didn't know that wealthy whatchamacallits knew how to "protest" like the commoners.
im done.

what bothers ME more (as a sign maker) is the PINK CRAYON...

I've never seen change without a fire
That, and the lack of gloves on a cold day. She was following Michael Steele's carefully detailed instructions. Yeah, that's the ticket.
As much as I would like to believe they are morons, when I text I tend to leave out vowels yet the word is still understandable. If I were txt the word competence it would look like competnc.
Roll the tax brackets back to 1963 levels. Then I will say they have something to complain about.
What really cracks me up is, they obviously don't know that the plan is to LOWER TAXES ON EVERYBODY BUT THE TWO TWO PERCENT.
Look through the photos. What they're protesting is higher taxes, and I can't see a single person who appears to be in the TOP TWO PERCENT of wage earners. In fact, they're probably OUT OF WORK, if they have time to protest.
....I start nit-picking on spelling. Maybe we should focus on the topic of debate instead.
