Here Tea Party assholes are questioned about cutting government spending. A fascinating glimpse into American stupidity.

"Cut everything that I don't use" was the attitude.

But they don't even know what they use! Or what to cut!

Harpity Darp Darp.

I like the signs like this one:

They amuse me. Where do these people think the checks come from? Santa Claus?

Of course it comes from the mighty, flying Tea Pot Party man in the sky!

Please, oh please, tell me this was a parody!

No. This is an ongoing problem. Romney ran a whole campaign and the only thing he wanted to cut was "Sesame Street."

(Too many little black kids on it getting government handouts!")

On the "foreign aid" question which drives tea bagging asswipes up the wall.

http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2011-...d-programs

Quote:In poll after poll, Americans overwhelmingly say they believe that foreign aid makes up a larger portion of the federal budget than defense spending, Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, or spending on roads and other infrastructure. In a November World Public Opinion poll, the average American believed that a whopping 25 percent of the federal budget goes to foreign aid. The average respondent also thought that the appropriate level of foreign aid would be about 10 percent of the budget — 10 times the current level.

Compared with our military and entitlement budgets, this is loose change. Since the 1970s, aid spending has hovered around 1 percent of the federal budget.

It is simply revolting that so many Americans could be utterly uninformed. No wonder we have a Moron Majority in the House of Representatives.
