More on the topic of grammar.

People amaze me. As my prior post on grammar states, I am no spelling queen. But as put by the writers on the Good Blog (check out blog roll for the link), "It's not that you have to have perfect spelling to make a cogent political point. And sure, there are misspelled signs at any rally. But given the arrogance and xenophobia on display, you'd think these people would double-check things".

Here is a selection of photos from pargon's flickr stream, from a series entitled :: Teabonics :: . As described by pargon: "These are signs seen primarily at Tea Party Protests. They all feature "creative" spelling or grammar. This new dialect of the English language shall be known as "Teabonics.""

Tea Party rallies are part of a larger movement known as the Tea Party Movement. If you go by the messages on their protest signs, the group is anti-Obama, anti-Socialism in any form, anti-immigration, anti-Mexico in general, anti-taxes, anti-any language other than English and anti-grammar. They are however pro-racism and pro-Fox news.

Here are some particularly powerful signs that may sum up the general sentiment of the movement as well as the level of education of its proponents.

obama deserves the peace prize?

very interesting, no?
