I'm going to tea party rally and I need some sign ideas

[cleveramerican]

I would like something that gives them a a sly slap, without being too over the top.
Something witty that can be taken both ways.

The first person I asked suggested "Tea Party= KKK"
This seems a bit too much.
I am leaning towards "Don't Be Fooled"

any ideas?

[Captain Hilts]

1. "Where Were You When Bush Ran Us Into Debt?"

[uppityperson]

7. I like this one. nt

[Captain Hilts]

16. It also disavows that this 'movement' is about money, because it isn't about money. nt

[uppityperson]

27. Or about "the gvt is too big, doing too much etc" as it isn't.Simple, succinct.

[Mz Pip]

2. How about

Thou shalt not bear false witness.

Or in the words of Sarah Palin: Stop making stuff up.

[Lochloosa]

3. Where were you from '00 to 08?

[Brigid]

80. There are many good ones here.

But this one gets my vote. :evilgrin:

[LisaM]

4. As some caller on a radio just said.....

ask them "What Rights Have You Lost?"

[sinkingfeeling]

5. I have a tee that says, "Stupidity isn't illegal. You're free to go". I'd think it'd be ideal for a

tea party.

[Captain Hilts]

13. I saw one of those on someone in Toronto. GREAT!

[kimmerspixelated]

45. BINGO!!!

DINGDINGDINGDING!!!

[Warren Stupidity]

6. Lunatic Central?

I'm with stupid? (arrows pointing to both sides of sign)

Teh Stupid: It Burnz!

[cleveramerican]

14. i like this one

[greymattermom]

8. Don't like government health care?

Burn your medicare card!

[SpiralHawk]

9. Stop the socialism of Social Security now

Down with Medicare
Down with Medicaid
Down with socialist firefighters!

[greymattermom]

10. Keep off

those socialist highways!

[greymattermom]

11. Don't flush!

Sewers are socialist!

[Arugula Latte]

Damn commie cops!

[Earth Bound Misfit]

12. Don't tread on me...

...or confuse me with FACTS.

[BurtWorm]

15. I'm with Glen Beck! I'm with Rush Limbaugh! I'm with Sarah Palin! I think for myself!

Or just "I'm with Fox News! I think for myself!"

[tabatha]

17. There are two simple signs that need no words:

[kimmerspixelated]

46. Holy Carp! What an eye-opener!

Good One!

[KansDem]

18. I always liked this one for the Tea Baggers...

Don't worry...

[SoCalDem]

20. Tea Party People Support PAYGO.. Just like Medicare Part D

Bush Tax Cuts

:evilgrin:

[FrenchieCat]

21. "Medicare = Socialism"

[CTyankee]

54. Best one EVAH! Good call, Frenchie!!! nt

[BurtWorm]

22. Quality health care for everyone is a socialist idea!

[pinboy3niner]

24. I think you're absolutely right

Insulting people never helps in geting them to listen. You can't be mean, or mean-spirited, or hateful. If you have some veterans with you, I'd go with signs like "Veteran for Obama" and "Combat veteran for Obama." The teabaggers' main objection is to our President, so it seems natural to counter that by demonstrating support for the President. If you think along those lines, you'll come up with some great--and positive-signs.

You and your friends will figure it out, cleveramerican.

Best of luck, and please let us know how it went.

[OregonBlue]

25. Abolish Welfare, Social Security and Medicare. Stop big government now!!

[damntexdem]

26. Close public restrooms: Pee Tardy!

[meegbear]

28. A photo of Lyndon LaRouche with a Hitler mustache ...

piss those people off.

[chaska]

29. "How's that double-digit I.Q. workin' out for ya?"

[DCKit]

30. Keep Your Damn Filthy Government Hands OFF My Medicare and Social Security.

This one should make 'em real nervous:

This one'll cause conflicting emotions:

[kimmerspixelated]

48. Dang! I remember my Mom had a thing for Charlton Heston,

And with this photo, I can see why!! MMMNice! She said he was a real man! She passed away long b4 all the gun stuff, so maybe she saw him at his best!!! Okay carry on with the signs!!!

[BurtWorm]

31. Intelligence in pursuit of socialism is no virtue! Ignorance in defense of republicanism is no vice!

[dorkulon]

32. "It puts the lotion in the basket" nt

[DearAbby]

47. SPEW

:spray:

You owe me a monitor

[dorkulon]

55. Heh.

Yeah something about that quote in that context really does it for me. :yoiks:

[GodlessBiker]

33. Teabaggers - Dip em slow and make em wet.

[safeinOhio]

34. Founding Father quote

"In monarchy the crime of treason may admit of being pardoned or lightly punished, but the man who dares rebel against the laws of a republic ought to suffer death"
Samuel Adams

[BurtWorm]

35. Good one!

Nice and subtle. Too subtle, no doubt, for those lunkheads.

[graywarrior]

40. I have a good Samuel Adams quote

either the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are universally corrupt.

Samuel Adams, essay in The Public Advertiser, Circa 1749

or just use the word Licentious because none of them will know what it means.

[struggle4progress]

63. I'll show you my Drivers Licentious if you show me yours!

[izzybeans]

36. Subtlety and a friend with a camera would be a good recipe.

"I loved my tax cut!"

"What about the economy?" (with the bikini jobs graph comparing Bush v Obama monthly job numbers embedded on the sign)

"Screw Democracy, I'm a Citizen of the Corporation!"
"Thanks for Improving Long Term Care!"

"The Founding Fathers Regulated the Economy! Woo Hoo"

"Deluded at Best!"

"AstroTurf: Not just for Baseball fields!"

"Orwell Was Right: This Farm is totally F'd!"

[BurtWorm]

39. 'Nobody can tell me what to do or think (except Glenn Beck)'

[B Calm]

37. Jail Illegal Employers! Illegal Immigrant Problem Solved!

[YOY]

38. I have a great idea!!!

Stay home and smoke a doobie. Watch Star Wars.

Time far better spent.

[madamesilverspurs]

41. Been getting this one ready...

[Mojeoux]

[BurtWorm]

A lot of teabaggers milling about with what-the-fuck expressions on their faces...

:spray:

[Iggo]

76. Here:

[mwooldri]

51. Where's the rally being held?

Ours is being held on Government Plaza.

If it's in some kind of socialist place like "government plaza" then a sign like "Socialism happens inside those walls..."

[slampoet]

59. "The Tea Party !!! Afraid of Spell Check and Black people."

[xultar]

60. Psychiatric help booth with a price would be awesome

A lady did that when Palin and Bachmann spoke and I saw it here @ DU and it was funny.

[progressoid]

61. If its happening in a public space...

Something about freedom to peaceable assemble in a socialist park or something.

Sorry, its been a long day. Maybe after dinner I'll get something better.

[struggle4progress]

65. US out of North America!

[IDemo]

67. "Decaffeinate, people"

[proud patriot]

68. freedom isn't free Quit your whining and pay your taxes

[Snarkoleptic]

69. Honk if you want to be teabagged.

Honk if you voted for Obama.


Stand 10-yards ahead of the 'baggers.

Both of these will make wingnuts less likely to honk in support of the spectacle.

[cleveramerican]

[haele]

77. A variant of a zazzle Tea-shirt I read about in the lounge -

"Tea Parties are for children with imaginary friends"
and some others -
"Hissy fits like this are for spoiled children and ignorant adults",
"This Tea-Party is sponsored by Grassroots organizations like Anthem-Blue Shield, Goldman Sachs, and Trust-fund Babies of America"
"Mission-Accomplished - Corporate take-over of the US Government by fake grassroots organizations and manufactured outrage."
"Hate - more mind-numbing and addicting than Heroin"
or "Go America! ranked #37 best health care for citizens that aren't millionaires or politicians"


Haele

[mwooldri]

78. The Tea Party need to stop their twinings and come back to reality... nt

[Zoeisright]

79. Make your sign say 'I'm with stupid' and have arrows pointing to the left and right.

It will take them a little while to get it because, well, they're stupid.

[AnArmyVeteran]

81. Is there a trauma center close to the tea party event?

Make sure you are close to a good hospital that has great emergency workers to treat knife and gunshot wounds. If you are going to carry a sign how sign ideas from 'Nut-the-Squrrel facebook site. They urge people to carry ridiculous, wacky signs, almost nonsensical to poke fun at the idiotic signs tea baggers hold. Below is a club you can join for sign ideas. I can't wait for the next Tea Party so I can carry a preposterous sign poking fun at the imbeciles in the tea party.
