Could it be that the main difference between the tea party and the 99% 'ers....
is who is treading on whom.

Now of course a lot of the people at these tea party events are nudged toward the crazy side by certain players on the right, but when you strip it all down to the bare essence is that they feel as alienated as we do.

I consider myself a 99%'er even though I can't make it out to any of the protests.

I was planning to go to what passes as the town square here in Westlake, Ohio but I was told that I might get into health problems because I rely on Oxygen.

I had to bow out because, in this sense, the better part of valor is discression.

2. Yes, 'they' feel as alienated as 'we' do, no doubt in my mind.
:thumbsup:

Thanks, WC.

3. Teabaggers financially are part of the 99%
but they just can't accept it, they really think one day they'll make it into the 1%. :eyes: Hey FOOLS, the system is rigged they will never let you join them in being a one percenter. :silly:
