Fixing The Internet
Posted on April 17th, 2010 by Tintin
Look what K-Lo found on teh Internetz! The bestest Barbie evah:
Except, well, there are some problems . . .
Fixed.
CREDIT: The Teabagger Barbie that we fixed was originally ripped off by Op-Toons, a conservative “humor” site specializing in amateurish photoshops, from Atheist Barbie, the creation of Jen at her marvelous blog Blag Hag.
She looks like Orly Taitz. Or is that a feature rather than a bug?
The awesome of the “fixed” is so bright I must wear my shades.
Yes. comfortable elastic waist pants! That’s more like it.
And can she have some tea bags dangling from a hat?
Where’s the swastika?
She’s a true TeAmerican™!
Now we need an image of Teabagger Ken.
You forgot the backwards “B” carved on the forehead.
She needs gray hair and a megaphone.
“She looks like Orly Taitz.”
Nah, Orly is more plastic looking.
“Now we need an image of Teabagger Ken.”
Now that’s just silly. Everyone knows that Ken has no testicles.

Though granny Barbie should probably be scowling… or shouting.
More than half of America believes President Blackula is moving the US towards socialism.
Angry old white male is ANGRY!!1! I haven’t seen any 7 foot tall rail thin blondes who are unable to move their extremities, though.
But I bet if we just compromised some more they’ll love us.
Barbie’s haid is also squooshy and empty!
I think the sign should read
SOCILLISM is “NOT”
AN AMERICAN
“VALUE”
because everyone knows quote marks are for “EMPHASIS”
Photoshop WIN.
“massive” culminating teabonics rally in DC yesterday:
A day earlier organizers downplayed expectations, saying only about 5,000 to 10,000 people were expected to show up because they have encouraged people across the country to cultivate protests in their hometowns.
The crowd at the earlier of two rallies scheduled for Thursday was not a huge one by Washington, D.C., standards, coming in at about 3,000 to 4,000 people.
compare:
The Guardian, Monday 17 February 2003 02.01 GMT
Last night’s protest in San Francisco was the last in a weekend of American mass demonstrations.
In New York on Saturday organisers counted 400,000 demonstrators who, forbidden by a court order from marching, rallied within sight of the United Nations amid heavy security. They were joined by the South African archbishop Desmond Tutu, and actors Susan Sarandon and Danny Glover.

Hell, on the 4th the lines for the porta-potties are longer than that.
To be complete, you’d better include a Social Security check stub and a letter telling her about her Medicare benefits.
I think she should be riding one of those motorized scooters.

“massive” culminating teabonics rally in DC yesterday:
We had a thousand show up in downtown Chicago with their hasty-pastyness.
But it doesn’t matter. Like Caribou UglyBarbie, they get the attention even though they don’t do shizbit but whine. And anger. And bittery buttery frosting at the mouth. At teh poors.
Y’know, people like themselves.
Meanwhile, people marching for Comprehensive Immigration Reform are dwarfing the ertards but they get scant attention. Wonder why that might be…
Um, the bottom one should have a face contorted with rage.
Um… this “Tea Party Barbie” is a straight-up ripoff of Atheist Barbie, which is a reaction to someone else’s Episcopal Priest Barbie. (See here for details.) If they want to remix a Tea Party Barbie, fine, but to co-opt Atheist Barbie to do so… man, that’s low.
So are the bagwads now trying to convince people that the rallies are heavin’ with teh hawt? I can’t imagine anyone being fooled by that for long.
Contort yourself!

Time to dust off the old one from 40 years ago and turn it back on them:
Protest? On a Thursdsay afternoon?! Don’t these people have jobs?!
i was trying to play with my militia barbie, but if i don’t keep her boozed up on southern comfort she gets cranky and tries to cut my penis off
Glasses shows she reads … large print Lillian Jackson Braun novels.

Ha ha, I guess teabagger creativity has gone Galt. They should have given her a “Stop stealing from the productive!” sign.
Hurm…she strikes me as insufficiently radical. Shouldn’t she be proudly sporting a T-shirt with that Protein Wisdom Obama-as-rapist cartoon? You know, to _really_ shock-‘n-awe them…
Clam diggers: not too stylish for teabaggers
I’m more impressed by the sign she’s holding than the pants she’s wearing.
If Jesus had a sheckel for every time some broad offered to clean his balls…
WTF happened to Barbie’s b00bies?

Hmmmm. Not sure this link will work.
Everyone knows that Ken has no testicles.
Fun fact! Gay Bob was anatomically accurate. When Gay Bob , ahem, came out I couldn’t afford one but was lucky to have a friend who could. We glued together a Gay Bob and a Ken doll _in flagrante_ and put it in a display case in the student union at our Catholic college. Hilarity ensued.
duz teabag barbie come complete with armor-piercing mooselini voice or duz she speak teabonics-barbonics with patriotec speling?
Everyone knows that Ken has no testicles.
and to think i wondered why this sentence appears in the berlitz phrasebook for italians travelling in the united states
Ha ha, I guess teabagger creativity has gone Galt. They should have given her a “Stop stealing from the productive!” sign.
TaxationTheft is theft. That atheist Barbie is awesome. Especially her “California Cheeseburger”Most teabaggers first vote was probably for George Wallace; there is nothing creative or new about them.
Wait. Insty tells me that Tea Party protests are chock-a-block full of minorities. Tea Party Barbie should be black or Korean or maybe even brown – but Jindal brown, not terrarist brown. Not Messican anyways.
Screw this thread. The Hawks are playin.
Atheists,
but you have NO ANSWER TO DEATH… therefore you FAIL…

THE REAL QUESTION:
DOES ATHEISM HAVE A FUTURE?
AND THE ANSWER – NO!

you’re ANNIHILATED!
Atheists,
Repent and turn to God.
I read trollypants’ nym as “dada theism” – which was correct.
Oops, forgot to beatify myself. (that is what the kids are calling it these days, I gather.)
Oh, and piefilter.
LAMB POWER!
Oh my, THE outfit for conservative Barbie.
Repent and turn to God.
Up yours.
Deepak Chopra? I know somebody who played a round of golf with him, said he was THE BIGGEST poor sport whiny baby he had ever played with. Conclusion: ATHEISM WINS!
Jesus is “just” alright w/ me
Since God doesn’t believe in atheists, we must therefiore not exist so shut the fuck up and take your spittle cup with you.
d00ds, the second link in trolly McAntiAtheism’s ARGLEBLAHGULL contains a link to an Ed Current video.
Edward Current. I call fake parody troll.
you’re ANNIHILATED
didn’t work – are you sure ur doin it rite?
Not bad, for a parody of a rip-off of an unrelated parody. But something about it seems off. I think it’s the Turner Diaries. You expect the average teabagger to have read a book?
You expect the average teabagger to have read a book?
That is part of the parody, maybe – the fable Bagger Barbie is meant to spread is that teatards are smart and hawt.
Oh snap! Virgin Ben, no u di-int!

Won’t you tell me if you can
When you see this world we live in
Do you still believe in man?

Box Turtle Ben is such a smarmy douchebag. Conservatism in a nutshell. Exhibit 1 in the media perpetually sucking up to right wing shits. A known goddamn plagiarist too.
Domenech added his own apology: “I offer my sincere apologies to Ms. Kagan if she is offended at all by my repetition of a Harvard rumor in a speculative blog post.”
OK, what classless asshole did he plagiarize that from?
And speaking of Klass, the front of Ms Flagpants with her charming flag-shirted mate. The gaudy plumage helps them find one another, then they show off their racist shirts and threatening signs in a spittle-flecked mating display cornithologists have described as “horrifying” and “soul-destroying.”
So, if I’m an atheist, when I die I just die, then, is that it?
Ohhh noes!

and a chocolate moose for desert
So, if I’m an atheist, when I die I just die, then, is that it?
Of course not. Then you decompose.
Oh fuck yeah, man. Like totally.
I think that troll is… Victoria Jackson…and she’s still doing her Andy Kauffman shtick.
You get to be one with the ecosystem, man!
So says United States Code. Title 4, Chapter 1 . Why do conservatives hate America and constantly disrespect our flag?

Aw, man, I wanted to kick Ayn Rand’s ass in Zombiedome.
This troll has totes pwned me. I’m totes accepting Jesus as my savior now. UNLESS Satan offers me cupcakes.
You guys… duke it out. Fight over me.
Aw, man, I wanted to kick Ayn Rand’s ass in Zombiedome.
Insomnia has given me a persistent headache and you want me to think about Ayn Rand’s ass? You’re a cruel woman.

When people mentioned he was in the Hitler Youth, they said it was no big deal. It seems he formed most of his sense of decency and his moral compass during that formative period.

No virgins for you!!!
Good point. I don’t really want to think about what would make him that happy.
Needs more Open Carry – & a couple fewer teeth.
originality = socialism
There should be a trailer park tweaker Barbie.
Yes indeedy.
I believe the kids would type, “FTW.”
Oh, and Teatard Barbie needs more neck flab and/or Adam’s apple, depending on whether or not we’re going with the K-Lo’s dream version of herself, or more of a Mann Coulter kind of thing.
“LAMB POWER!”
I’d like mine in a nice curry, not too spicy please.

The guy deserves some credit for trying to turn plagiarism into an all-purpose career-saving excuse. If he sticks to repeating other people’s allegations, he should be safe from any consequences.

…”It looks like it’s growing, Professor!”
The godly chumps are really annoying with their “repent, heathens” schtick. When confronted with my lack of religion, I just tell ’em, straight-faced, “Thank god I’m an atheist!”. Totally fucks ’em up. I could not care less about their sensitivities, they have not shown me any compassion or acceptance. Domenench even steals someone else’s slur and then lies about his remorse at the inaccuracy of the original lie. The teatard Barbie was deemed a “Palin lookalike, and just as empty-headed” by creaturette, to much snickering. All in all, a great thread. Got here late, taking care her w/ two abcessed teeth, whilst sweating possibly pregnancy problems. At least I’m out of work (“layed off” last week), so I can.
Should she carry a copy of “Going Rogue” instead? Or do only male teabaggers wuv Sara?
Yowza. That guy makes Cheney look like a TeleTubby.
I suppose that would qualify as a true test of faith. God tapping a dude for head of the ministry who, in any other set of clothes, would be taken for the living, breathing appearance of Satan Hizzownself, sending animals, small children and weak men bolting from the vicinity. Seriously, does the guy wear aftershave called “Brimstone” or what?
I’d wear the fix on a t-shirt.
I’ve sometimes wondered, could we get rid of the teabaggers, if we advertised a huge tea party convention that was placed in the middle of nowhere, preferrable hundreds of kilometers from nearest city, in area with no cell phone connection, an unhospitable place at the end of some old abandoned road.
All we would need to do is set up signs on the road pointing to the meeting place (empty slot), and make sure the distance is longer the most SUV:s go on full tank.
Could one get the teabaggers hundreds of kilometers away from civilization, without working phones, without fuel to drive back, and without too much food (they might bring some snacks to the meeting, but how long would those last)? And what would happen?
And what would happen?
Google “the great disappointment.”
All this time I thought Deepak Chopra was a rapper.
Where is her hat with TeaBags hanging from it?
I’m only a Reformed Atheist, though I still have lots of Atheist Orthodox relatives and a few Evangelical Fundamentalist Literalist Atheist neighbors.

Shouldn’t that be a hat with a fringe of trucknutz?

When Prophecy Fails \ The falling motion…
There is something inexpressibly sad about the way the creator / plagiarist of Tea-Party Barbie has felt obliged to include the horn-rimmed glasses as a signifier of “shows that she reads”. If (a) you accept that you face a stereotype of “ignorant and illiterate”, and (b) you think that sticking glasses on a barbie will convince people otherwise, then you might as well admit that the cause is lost.
Any chance that
KlausTea-Party Barbie is a piece of snark, latched onto by Ms Lopez out of dimwittedness?then you might as well admit that the cause is lost.
Objection! Assuming self-knowledge not in evidence.
You expect the average teabagger to have read a book?
its an audiobook, stupid
The expression is all wrong.
Shouldn’t she have a look of seething white-hot rage mixed with frustration along with a healthy dose of vapid?

Ha! Glasses-wearing only shows that eyes were less intelligently designed than they might have been.
I’m only a Reformed Atheist, though I still have lots of Atheist Orthodox relatives and a few Evangelical Fundamentalist Literalist Atheist neighbors.
I find I vastly prefer the Reconstructionist Atheists.
And don’t even get me started on the Book of Athe weirdos with the special underwear.
And cankles. She needs cankles.
Evidently not. The original Tea-Party Barbie seems to be from Op-Toons Review. Op-Toons Review is trying to be a conservative version of The Onion, and is about as funny as you would expect a conservative version of The Onion to be.
The uncredited Tea-Party Barbie showed up on April 12, four days after Atheist Barbie was posted on Blag-Hag.
Op-Toons Review is trying to be a conservative version of The Onion, and is about as funny as you would expect a conservative version of The Onion to be.
It did not even live up to those low expectations. Every time I see something like this I am reaffirmed in my belief that liberals could make better, funnier conservative comics than actual conservatives. Hell, I bet liberals could even make more convincing arguments for conservatism than conservatives do.

One thing you can definitely say for atheists: the odds in favor of an irrevocable atheist schism* that leads to a long massive bloody war/s don’t exactly give a bookie a hard-on, eh?

Case in point: ObamaCare resembles Rhode Island Senator John Chaffee’s 1994 alternative to ClintonCare, which had half the Republican caucus as co-sponsors.
Has anyone told BlogHag that she was ripped off?
Doesn’t work here, either.
…I’m the one who made Atheist Barbie, and this makes me so incredibly sad. Teabaggers are so goddamned stupid, and now they’re sullying my creation. 🙁
Thanks for bringing my attention to it, at least.
Jen, kudos for the original! Maybe you can kick their ripoff up a notch for them, too… 😉
Ah, don’t feel that way. I can think of several good things about this business…
(1). It introduced people (including me) to your site.
(2). Your original Atheist Barbie was genuinely funny, and it’s now more widely known.
(3). In comparison, the Tea Party Barbie rip-off was so inept and humorless that the perpetrators made themselves look like jackasses.
(4). The whole thing gave us a fine opportunity to heap scorn and ridicule on right-wing jerks, which is something we enjoy doing.
Snorghagen, when you put it like that, I like it much better!
Though I still feel dirty for being associated with Tea Party people in any way. Must go wash away the stupid!
Though I still feel dirty for being associated with Tea Party people in any way.
Could be worse. The real Barbies now feature a “Ladies of the 80s” line, among which is a Joan Jett Barbie.
They even pared down her boobs to match JJs.
She’s missing the ubiquitous Obama-as-Joker image. It’s the essential Tea Party image. Unoriginal, and devoid of any message other than “Obama is bad.” Seriously, the Tea Party facebook group was using it as their profile picture.
Now I’m off to find Joan Jett Barbie.
The crowd at the earlier of two rallies scheduled for Thursday was not a huge one by Washington, D.C., standards, coming in at about 3,000 to 4,000 people.
A hundred thousand demonstrate in the DDR, and behold, the Wall comes down. A few thousand demonstrate against Obama and behold, his party bottles out. More than a million demonstrate in London against the Iraqi war, and behold, there is no effect at all. Now what does this tell us?
Why, yes, I DID laugh at “oo-e-oo-ah-ah.” Took me about 30 sec before I realized WHY.
Thanks for asking.
The book should be “Going Rogue” (“Turner”‘s for the menfolks), and the hair should be a short, gray, hairsprayed helmet. And the face should be much fatter, and pouting sullenly.
Then I would buy this action figure. As long as it came with a toy Junkpuncho, with Real Junk-Punching Action.
