Another Teabagger protest ends with a whimper and not a bang.

This courtesy of USA Today:

Traffic on the Capital Beltway around Washington was slow on Friday, but the culprits were largely steady rain and a heavy volume of weekday commuters, not a purported 3-day rolling protest by independent truckers. 

Video cams occasionally showed three trucks rolling side by side, clogging up cars and other trucks behind them, but the Beltway otherwise keep truckin'. 

At one point, according to the Virginia State Police, four commercial vehicles slowed traffic to 15 mph after the drivers rode side-by-side across all four northbound lanes of I-495 in Virginia. Police pulled the drivers over and warned them not to impede traffic. 

"No summons/ticket was issued," police said in a statement. "The tractor-trailers were then allowed to proceed on their way," officials said in a news release, WUSA-TV reports. 

Although organizers of the "Ride for the Constitution" said thousands -- perhaps as many as 10,000 -- trucks would take part, at mid-morning, only about 30 or so tractor-trailers were spotted on the Inner Loop of the Beltway that circles Washington through Maryland and Virginia, according to Corinne N. Geller, spokesperson for the Virginia Department of Transportation.

Okay I am laughing too hard right now to write anything.

I will leave it up to all of you to mock these morons, while I hold my aching stomach and wipe tears of laughter from my eyes.

    OK, 30 trucks. And, on a typical Friday afternoon around a major city, there would be how many tractor-trailers? Oh, about 27?

      You might try using tinyurl.com to get a much shorter link next time. But in this case, I'm glad you didn't so most people will ignore it. This was one of the dumbest sites I've ever spent 3 minutes on in my life. It's kind if like a low-rent version of Beck, Allahpundit, DailyCaller, Alex Jones-type of stupidity. I read about 5 comments and I will never visit it again. Take my word--- don't even be tempted to go to the site. I was reasonably intelligent before my visit, but now I'm reduced to a babbling idiot. Plus, I need a good hot shower with lots of lather, rinse and repeat with anti-bacterial soap and fungicide.

      Hopefully, this is a temporary situation, but that's the kind of site that should come with a bullshit warning label.

      Please don't try to waste the time of others on stupid nonsense like that again. I'd rather be rickrolled 5 times... honestly.

      BTW, I'm putting the Teabagger Idiots, including Sarah and her few remaining suckups, on auto-ignore with my troll-filter. They don't deserve attention nor even the time of day.

      Thanks G for wading through the Bagger shit and telling us the Cliff's notes version, so we don't have to. These dumbfucks aren't even funny when they serve as a distraction for the damage of *their* political allies who are doing real harm to our economy.

      There are drama-driven attention whores in every business, but there are fewer idiots than they pretend to represent. Million Moms, Sarah Palins fans, etc. All are insignificant but talk it up on social media like they're a power to be reckoned with.

      They're more like kids on the playground pretending to be BATMAN. Except that its a creative exercise for kids to do role play; for adults that are delusional and ignorant, it's just sad. They are so easily duped and misled.

      Yep, with idiots like Sarah out there playing ass-clowns in the social media, you can ignore the stupid shit she does for a day or so, and pick right back on different stupid shit that she is saying.

      I take a couple of weeks off on between ridiculing her stupid word salads for a day or so, and I've never missed a damn thing worth checking out. She sunk like a rock when she began to show her "stuff". She's toxic in many ways... in fact, any of em. All of em.

      She's a dirt track kind of "gal". There will always be a need for more dirt at those tracks. She meets all of the criteria, including big ole detachable fake tits and a malodorous, sweaty stench with a sticky forehead on a shiny, plastic mug.

      I can't wait until McCain either kicks the bucket or an old lady and is pushed out of office, and then Sarah is snubbed for Franks (or anybody but Sarah).

      Reckon she'll show her ass when even she realizes she was kicked to the curb after November, 2008?

    I forwarned my adult children who live near DC about the teabagger truckers' plans. It had been reported 3k, down from one million lol were going. My daughter left me a funny voice mail calling from her car on 495 during her evening commute there
    were no truckers holding up the
    beltway.

    I also informed them that typically very few of these tea party types ever show uo.

    I mentioned the 'Honk for Sarah' scheme in which they were going to lean on their horns from the shoulders of highways for America to join with them to stand with Palin.

    My daughter said "Great, people driving by would have said who are those dopes? Ahh...they are with Sarah Palin!"

    Of course the pond scum over at c4p are just so tickled to be noticed by her-for a change! Idiots all of them -from her post:

    Take a look at this great post by Michelle McCormick at C4P. I personally think it’s great not only because it’s hilarious and true, but also because I’ve had "One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish" memorized for 24 years now. It was Track’s first baby book, which was read repeatedly! Most of all, thanks to the great folks at C4P for all the wonderful work they do! "

    They said there would be 3 thousand trucks.The way the bagger rallies have been going lately I thought it would be 3 dozen. Turns out they didn't even get that many. There were more news people reporting on the trucker protest than there were trucks. Maybe the quitter queen can go down there and flag a few with her hooker getup (that pink sweater, water bra, wig, and stripper shoes outfit she had on for fox).

    Whoop-de-doo. So precocious Track was able to read a book to mommy so often that even she could remember it years later.

      I sincerely believe that policemen adore truck drivers and are probably jealous of them. On my way to work several years ago, my car was hit by a loaded double gravel-hauling truck that was running a red light on a major road at rush hour. My car spun around a few times, I was unconscious for several minutes but otherwise unhurt. The policeman who arrived at the scene was reluctant to ticket the truck driver because, as he said, the driver would probably lose his license. What ultimately resolved the issue was a cell phone call from a witness to the accident who stated that the truck driver had indeed run the red light. The policeman was not very interested in my telling of the story: "I never make my boulevard turn at the light without waiting until it is green and I know that the light for oncoming traffic has already turned red." And I also reminded the policeman that the traffic light turns red a few seconds before the other light turns green. I was so grateful to the witness who called the police station. Without his call, I was about to be ignored because 1) I'm a woman, 2) the truck drive was a guy, and 3) the truck driver was driving a truck after all.

  35. Turns out that the truckers were promised fuel money for participating. Donations were being solicited by Pete Santilli, but instead of giving any of it to the truckers, he ran off with, most likely laughing all the way to the bank.

    That said, Palin was in DC not for the truckers but for the million vet march which was relatively peaceful until the radical fringe tore down barricades, tossed them in front of the White House, and threatened the police on the scene. What did they think would happen?

    The truckers, not wanting to be outdone "rolled into DC in force" (about a dozen!) total, and tried to steal the thunder from the vets to make their insignificant "demonstration" look larger. They rode the vets coattails while making it look like the veterans were there to support them!
