Becuase from that point on, it seems like many teabaggers have gone into hiding...

Of course O'Donnell's witch thingy helps itself...

3. Exactly, and as long as big money thinks the damned fools among us
can be used to keep the Republicans in power, they will continue to fund their Astroturfed "populism."

2. Are you kidding? Big Money always follows these Flakie Fundie types.

How better to tear apart our supposed "Two Party " system?

Get both parts of the two party system to become whores to the Big CorpoRATe Interests. (Matt Taibi has a great description of this when one of his recent articles portrays Reid running around BEHIND THE BACKS of several of the more aggressive House members and having the Repugs help him water down the Financial "Reform" Bill.)

So the word is out and people are FED up with it - and then...

Yes, and then before anything resembling a decent canddidate for the 16 percent of us that are progressive, WHAM! This Christian Fundie, TeaBagger nonsense.

We will now be free to vote for either Christian Flakey Fundie or the Same Ol' Same Ol'

It is a win for Big CorpoRATe America no matter how you look at it.

5. People misread Tweety
He thinks he is warning us, the liberals, about these crazies

It comes across as if he likes them - and that's his flaw. Everything comes out like you were watching a baseball game.

7. Yes, and?
Look he is one of us, but everything you said is correct.

He treats politics, something which can help people live, or make them die, as a sportscast.

I like him, but I don't always agree with him.

11. That's kind of ironic
that it's Tweety that does that, since Olbermann was actually the sportscaster

14. A Liberal, yes.
Although he has strayed from the path a lot.

He strayed on some of the worst votes of history. Invasion of Iraq, Surge...all that shit.

But, like many folks who don't always see that train headed for them, the capitulate.
