All the mispelled teabagger signs leads me to believe that many are either paid shills whose hearts

are not truly in it or attention hounds along for the ride till it gets rough or boring.

If I was sincerely trying to get my point across on a a protest sign that very possibly would be viewed by thousands of people -- in person, on TV and the internet, you can be sure I'd care enough to spell check. The whole movement reeks of fabrication.

1. No, the signs were made by ignorant people who can't spell.

And I doubt it ever even occurred to them to check their spelling. Some people are too stupid to realize that they're stupid -- which defines the teabaggers pretty well, I think.

5. I'm sure to them they are correctly spelled. They probably even checked with
each other just to be sure!

7. I don't think homeschooling has anything to do with it
Some people just can't be taught. You'll find those people on the far left side of the bell curve, and at Tea Party rallies.

6. They are ignorant. It's obvious they do not read or they would know
what the hell the damn truth was. Spelling goes hand in hand with reading. They have probably burned more books than they have read.

8. Bad spellers AND a Fattie! A two-fer!
We all know that obesity -- especially when it comes along with middle-age and ugliness -- is an infallible indicator of moral degeneracy.

--d!

10. I Suspect It's Actually a Sign of the Opposite
Paid operatives would be more likely to make their signs professional. These are the same people who misspell words on those handmade signs for rural produce stands.

11. I don't think they are sophisticated paid ops. It's more like. Here's a grand, fill up the RV,
stock up at Costco. You can scream during the day. Barbecue at night. And just keep the rest of the cash. I don't know. Maybe you are right. Maybe they are just ignorant.

13. This is recreation and leisure posed as politics.
Phony as Woodstock II. They cleared out casinos, dog tracks, KOA's, Good Sams and Bob Evans for thousands of miles for this horse shit.
