Fighting For Conservative Values Like Shooting Laws We Don't Agree With
by Abby Zimet
Ron Gould, a Tea Bagger from Arizona running for Congress, has a new ad in which he advocates homegrown border militias and then blows away a copy of the Affordable Care Act with a shotgun to prove he's a "straight shooter." Tag line: "Washington doesn't get us." No, actually. The rest of us get you. We just think you're a dangerous imbecile.

His administration has deported more illegal immigrants than the Bush Administration at this time in office.
And Ronald Reagan gave amnesty to 2 million illegal immigrants.

I don't. Some of the people that live in my neighborhood are this way.

I have the same problem with armed neighbors who are crazy as a shithouse rat. However, as far as I'm concerned the best way to marginalize these people is through ridicule.

I alway get nervous. Could someone take this as a "call to arms"? Remember Gabby Giffords?
