DUmp noob rixby comes up with a bouncy tale so poorly done, I suspect he's a mole trying to make the DUmp look even worse than it is:

I had my first discussion with a teabagger type saturday
I live in a bit of a bubble, just about everyone where I work is pretty progressive, and Minneapolis is a pretty progressive place in general, so it kind of surprised me. I was taking the bus back from a show I went to Saturday night, and this guy gets on and starts yelling "Michelle Obama for president"...and then a few seconds later, after looking like he was very confused about the words coming out of his mouth, starts yelling "Michele Bachmann for president". And then he starts talking about how the president is a socialist and we're becoming the United Socialist States of America. I had the misfortune of sitting across the aisle from him, and he was directing most of his comments my way, and the way of the older disabled guy sitting in the seat next to me. He's saying stuff like "I'm glad my tax dollars are paying for your disability payments" and stuff like that, in a very sarcastic tone.
I pointed out to him that bus fair is 60% subsidized by the government, and that public transportation in general is a very socialist idea. After I said that, he got very red in the face and gave me the 'death stare' as I like to describe it. I just turned and faced the other way, and he ended up getting off at the next stop and left me with the parting words "**** all this socialist shit".
My thinking is that if you don't want to be surrounded by progressive thinking, socialist public transit, etc etc, you should move someplace that isn't so full of lefties like Minneapolis is, or else you'll just be constantly frustrated by our willingness to help you despite your douchebaggery.

It's incomprehensible that even a DUmp democrat would believe this silly tale. But they do.

1. What a classy dude
Public profanity is still a crime in some states, if not enforced much....
I'm surprised at DUmmy n2doc. Public profanity is one of the defining traits of democrats.

4. From the moment he got on the bus and started ranting
I knew he was totally high class. I do have to give him credit for actually getting off the bus when I explained how socialist it was. I hope he had a nice long walk home to think about it.
DUmmy Warpy explains her method for constructing a bouncy tale:

3. Careful, he was drunk or crazy or even both
and you never know how those lunatics are going to react. These are the ticking time bombs and these are the ones hate media are trying to set off.
I usually don't confront them, I just smile and say "Everything you think you know is a lie," and leave it at that. They don't get my tacit agreement but they don't get an argument, either, and they usually manage to blow themselves out within a couple of stops.
Warpy must be one of those DUmmies who continually runs into raving lunatics in the checkout line. Such bad luck they have.

2. Tell him to move to NW Iowa.
Ain't no stinkin' socialists out in places like Orange City, except for the poor, destitute corporate farmers out their making a killing off government farm subsidies. He won't have to worry about socialism for the common man out in places like that.
Huh?

Public Profanity is only pubished for 17 year old brats who need to be scared straight.
Worth a shot.
Once in a while on the local police report online, updated daily, you'll see a 17 year old arrested for a long list of trivial offenses along with a serious one or two. Things like profanity, posession of tobacco and trespassing if they even stepped on private property during the arrest.

First off, we don't get on buses and start rambling on about Sarah Palin, etc., incoherently, DUmmies.
No cops, no bushes, no applause from the other bus riders.
Zero bongs.

Minneapolis has a bus fair?

It's kinda like a Scarborough Faire, isn't it? Lots of Simon & Garfunkel? Parsley, sage, and other herbs in abundance?

Zero bongs indeed. Standard bouncy without a shred of fact. Fail.

There is a Renaissance Fair not too far outside of MNPLS.

Someone needs to draw up a outline for them to follow.
Their bouncy's are lame.

DUmmie forgot to mention if this happened on "The Short Bus".
