1. Oh man they overlooked a big one - look at the right edge of the photo

between the woman in the brown jacket and the power box

Yep that's paid by our taxes too and that's biggest one of them all in the photo!

You could also add that the grass is trimmed. Since it looks like a public street corner, that should also be included.

[alfredo]

2. Excellent

[TheCowsCameHome]

3. Good grief - They're even against turning on red.

Radical crackpots, they are. :rofl:

[Whiskeytide]

10. Now that's just good comedy...

...well done.

[gkhouston]

16. No, they're against being forbidden to turn right.

:7

[queenjane]

4. "Cut Taxes Not Defense"???

Sounds like my dipshit Rush groupie brother . . .

[LynneSin]

5. You have to ask yourself, how do we pay for defense if we pay no taxes?

I mean geez logic escapes these people like a breeze thru a screen door.

[Blue_Tires]

15. Those folks could be from Virginia...

That mindset runs DEEP here....

[MatthewStLouis]

9. They want everything for free. n/t

[spanone]

6. zero taxes? then get off my fucking city sidewalk

dumbfucks

[HappyMe]

7. They have no clue what taxes pay for.

Amazing.

[badhair77]

8. Excellent! A meeting of the great minds of our time.

Can I tell you how much I love Juanita Jean's site.

[LynneSin]

12. And if you merge all their minds together you almost get a complete one

:rofl:

[Brother Buzz]

28. I loved Juanita and her relentless attacks on DeLay

I'm convinced she single-handedly took him down.

[xchrom]

11. ...

:rofl:

[ProfessionalLeftist]

13. Used to know some folks in MENSA...most of them were OK

some of them - not impressed. One of them told me point blank that all being in MENSA proves is that you're good a passing tests. Same thing "no child left behind" does. Pretty worthless, if that's true.

[kentauros]

17. A friend of mine has a Mensa Meet-Up group here.

She throws great parties with them :D
Then again, she's also a belly dancer and those are great parties, too

[SharonAnn]

18. I'm Mensa member and I'd have to agree with the part about "good at passing tests".

After that, it's a wide variety of people.

Some of whom I wonder about, but then they probably wonder about me.

[kestrel91316]

19. I used to be a member. I guess I'm just not enough of a group person and joiner

to bother staying with them. And IIRC, Mensa was where I met up with the Libertarians who led me astray back in my youth, lol.

Mostly insufferable bores who came to the parties for the free food......

[Odin2005]

25. IMO MENSA's test, like most IQ tests, is biased towards concrete forms of intellegence...

...as opposed to imagination and abstraction. One can have a genius-level IQ and still be a very concrete, black-and white thinker that cannot think outside the box.

[Overseas]

14. K&R.

[eppur_se_muova]

20. Counterprotest -- "Our taxes paid for these sidewalks. If you don't like it, stand somewhere else."

[hifiguy]

21. That's a whole lot of stoopid there. nt

[HughBeaumont]

22. Meetin' for Senior Discounts at the Cracker Barrel later, I'm thinking . . .

Get off my planet, you angry ancient whiteys.

"Work Not Welfare"? Uh, your corporations you bow to lovingly sip more Gub'mint milkshake than poor people do, you dumb shits. That includes the two Koch assholes that fund your operation.

[TalkingDog]

23. The only thing you need to see is "Cut Taxes Not Defense"

I mean... where the hell does she think the money for defense comes from?

[dflprincess]

24. It's too bad none of the took advantage of the public education that was available to them

- outside of perhaps occupying a seat for 12 years.

[moondust]

26. I see the air they breathe is not black.

No cloud of black smoke belching out the exhaust of that vehicle.

Crosswalk and probably Walk/Don't Walk indicators making it relatively safe to cross the street.

[jmowreader]

27. So what do you think...

If someone were to come along and, say, drive up on the sidewalk and run about half of them over, would the teabaggers be in favor of spending tax dollars to find and prosecute the driver?
