5 Summer Reading Picks for the Thinking Teabagger

Read Time:4 Minute, 4 Second

Now before the right wing readers we attract type all in caps that “teabagger” is a horrible, hateful word, and how dare I use it, let me remind you that you started it. A photo of an older woman, standing next to a road, holding a sign that reads “Teabagging for Jesus” was the first, and most famous instance of a Tea Party member using that word to describe themselves. It’s not anyone’s fault but your own that none of you had a clue as to what “tea bagging” actually was.

With that out of the way, let us begin, shall we? Summer is almost upon us, and with the sun and picnics and vacations comes time to read. Some of my friends plan to catch up on their reading with current works, both fiction and non-fiction while others will revisit books from long ago. As I compiled my summer reading list, I wondered what fervent, right wing Christian conservatives might read over the summer. So, with tongue firmly in cheek, I present A Teabagger’s Summer Reading List.

1) Secrets of the Federal Reserve by Eustace Mullins. Mr. Mullins is a widely recognized anti-Semite and white nationalist, but this fact did not stop Glenn Beck from promoting Mullins’ book on his program. Mr. Mullins’ less famous work, “Adolph Hitler: An Appreciation” was written for the National Renaissance Party in 1952. In 1955, Eustace Mullins listed himself as the executive director of the “Aryan League of America.” I envision many folks in the Tea Party trying to get their hands on Mullins’ article about Hitler.

2) The Red Network-A Who’s Who of Radicalism for Patriots by Elizabeth Dilling. This book was also promoted by Glenn Beck, who said that Dilling’s book was “from people who were doing what we’re doing now.” Elizabeth Dilling was a noted anti-Semite who believed that “Marxism” and “Jewry” were synonymous. Dilling was also vehemently anti-Communist, accusing Eleanor Roosevelt of being a Communist sympathizer. In the 1950’s, Dilling wrote quite often for Conde McGinley’s anti-Semitic publication, Common Sense. For people sympathetic and supportive of Dilling’s views, it should be noted that she also wrote The Octopus, in which she attacked the Anti-Defamation League, under the pseudonym Reverend Frank Woodruff Johnson. Maybe David Barton has a copy.

3) The Fable of the Ducks and the Hens by George Lincoln Rockwell. To my knowledge, Glenn Beck has never promoted anything written by Rockwell, the founder of American Nazi Party, but I could be wrong. This piece is more of an epic poem, that uses various types of birds to illustrate Rockwell’s views on the racial problems in America and the world. There is also a video, narrated by an attorney, available to view online via links at Stormfront.org. And if you forget your log in information, the link is on the public page.

4) Demonic: How the Liberal Mob is Endangering America by Ann Coulter. According to Amazon.com, this is Ms. (Mr.?) Coulter’s “most provocative work to date.” This may be due to the statement she makes regarding the murdered college students at Kent State, saying “That’s what you do with a mob. They were monstrous.” There’s that warm fluffy gal (guy?) we all know and love! Coulter has written many books, all with the same basic theme-we (conservatives) are angelic sweethearts with rainbows coming out our rectums and YOU (liberals) are evil, twisted, horrible people. Oh, and Coulter believes we should throw Judaism away, and Jews need to be “perfected” by converting to Christianity. She (he?) said that on television!

5) The Pink Swastika by Scott Lively and Kevin Abrams. In this charming tome, Lively and the much lesser known other guy, take bullshit to a whole new level by claiming gays brought Nazism to Germany. The title of the book is a reference to the pink triangles homosexuals were required to wear in concentration camps. They were herded into those camps by the Nazis, FYI. Lively and Abrams’ book states that eight of the top ten serial killers in America were homosexuals, and that Adolf Hitler, along with a majority of Nazi leaders were gay. According to many historians, the only high ranking Nazi who was allegedly gay was Ernst Rohm, and in June of 1934, after having Rohm killed, Adolf Hitler himself mentioned Rohm’s homosexuality, negatively, in a speech.

Do you have any books to add to the Teabagger Summer Reading List? (I know, I left off the bible, but I wanted to go for more esoteric works.)

Thanks to Wikipedia, Stormfront,org (God that hurt to do), Amazon.com, Media Matters and Advil for getting me through this article.

I think they should start with “See Spot Run.” Then again most of them wouldn’t get it. Great list.

For a teabagger this will be about 5 years worth of reading material. Why? They don’t read, unless it’s the buy-bull.

You’re so right Jason. Gotta love that buy bull, known as the Silly Book, in Monty Python parlance.

I prefer to just go Zelda on them. Swords, bombs, bow & arrows, boomerang, hammers, clawshots/longshots, I can have fun with that. With the zombie nuts everywhere, it might come in handy.
