The Illustrated Tea Party Dictionary

Ever wondered what "Real America" means? Or how precisely Sarah Palin defines communism and fascism? Look no further. Using misspelled Tea Party placards, from this excellent Flickr gallery, we've compiled the first comprehensive dictionary for this new dialect.

Here are 24 key words, and their associated misspelled placards, that are now charged with the fevered, dog-whistling undertones of Fox News and the new right.

Click on the images to enlarge.

Welfare and unemployment, after all its not their responsibility to pick up any book that isn't church approved, you know like the bible? All those school books are to liberal, schools should only teach the 3 R's, Reading, Righting and Rithmatic. Hey look I'm speeling tea bagenese.
