3. Obama's skin color is the single biggest thing in the baggers' heads
No doubt to me. Taxes? Those idiots don't understand that Obama's tax plan benefits them. It's not taxes, socialism, foriegn policy, bailouts or anything so much as skin color. Some people cannot feel good about themselves unless they can look down on others.

4. The tea party movement is corporatist in character
because its funded by the Koch Brothers and hyped by FAUX Noise and hate radio.

However they DO appeal to racist imbeciles by blaming everything wrong with the country on the current occupant of the White House. Who happens to be half not white.

5. You bet they're racist.
The idea of a black man in the White House rankles them right to their racist undergarments.

6. I believe it is but it is hard to prove, so it makes more sense to move on to provable statements
since they are so very wrong on so many things that can be proven to be wrong

7. It's not 'Taxed Enough Already' it's 'Tolerant Enough Already.'
Because a black President was the last straw.

8. Sounds right.
Edited on Sat Oct-30-10 02:54 PM by Kurt_and_Hunter
Their taxes went down while the melanin content of the sitting President went up.

Funny occasion for an anti-tax movement.
