A Pennsylvania Tea Party group that goes by the name of Northeast Pennsylvania Spirit of 1776 sent out an email blast that includes images of our "Founding Fathers" joking about beating President Obama down in Heaven for being a "radical, socialist leader." The "joke" is derived from Robin Williams' '71 Virginians routine, where he imagines Osama Bin Laden being greeted by Virginians at the gates of heaven rather than virgins.
A member of the group confirmed that this garbage was sent out to other members, and added that it was funny because it's based on the idea that Obama is a Muslim. Which means it's totally irrelevant. Also, how many of these "Founding Fathers" owned slaves? We guess that's part of the joke. Good job, Tea Party. You never let us down.
