'Reports indicate that the Tea Party Movement benefits from millions of dollars from conservative foundations that are derived from wealthy U.S. families and their business interests. Is appears that money to organize and implement the Movement flows primarily through two conservative groups: Americans for Prosperity and FreedomWorks.'

"Teabaggers" are the useful idiots of the wealthy.

1. TeaBaggers = The Billionaire (R) SuckerPuppets du jour

When the TeaBaggerites finally decide it might be worthwhile to acknowledge reality, they are going to be highly pissed that they have been SUCKERED so thoroughly.

6. Maybe, but the teabaggers are so consumed with hate and bigotry

that I believe that they would gladly sacrifice many of their own and oppose what may be in their best interests if it means that tens of millions of those that they absolutely despise and loathe would suffer as much or better still, much, much more.

Teabaggers are sociopaths, and care little about one another's misfortunes, other than what purpose that they can serve together in the short or long-term.

2. They really should be the Koch Party or Big Oil Baggers.

It bugs me that all the discussion is about The Tea Party wants this or that.

It is really the Koch Brothers' Party -- the Kochs plus other extreme right wing funders.

Planned Parenthood that reduces the need for abortions with more thoughtful family planning.

And fighting against reductions in carbon emissions! Geez.

It should be very big news that private industry has managed to elect a group of officials to our legislature that will do their bidding.

Throw in a cultural wedge issue that is false -- no federal funding supports abortion services -- to give the opposition the feeling of being driven by dumb enraged citizens who can't be reasoned with,

and then slip in that eliminate environmental protection and carbon emission control.

5. Do the Koch's own Women's Health Centers?

That would explain that chestnut.

7. No that is tossed in there to reinforce the grass rootsiness of the opposition.

And distract the press from the "oh, and by the way, eliminate limits on carbon emissions" and other annoying environmental protections the Koch Party wants to be freed from.

3. Therein lies the great irony...

...that for some reason, corporations know what Americans want.

Not "government" of, for, and by the people; No, no, we the people could never know what we want.

But "government" of, for, and by investors; Only investors know what's good for the people.

Teabaggers are either very stupid or highly-paid shills. I had to laugh at the hypocrisy of criticizing "Obama Death Panels," yet allowing private insurance corporations to deny care to legitimte patients who later died as perfectly acceptable...

4. Mike Ross = Corporate interests, Mark Pryor = corporate

interests, and they both like to talk about their conservative values. Lest we forget, what about Miz Blank (Good Damn Riddance) Lincoln, one of THE most useful idiots Walmart ever had?
