Thanks, JD. When I read Justplugit's post, the first image that popped into my mind was one of a woman with a "Teabagging for Jesus" sign at one of the prostests. Of course the far right wing extremists, racists and those advocating violence are a very small number in the grand scheme of things, but they get the most attention. That's what I originally meant by "wingnuts".

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

That's what I figured. The movement *could* be productive but it is overshadowed by people like the morons in the pictures above. However, those idiots are possibly the only reason the movement gets as much press as it does.

Nut cases dominate the Democrats. Ever watch the Democratic National Convention? Pony tails and floppy hats., and that's the "men".
The fruitloop that Delahunt let go to murder 3 people in Alabama was a big time Obama supporter.
The press and JD and the left would like you to believe the Tea Party is all nut jobs (hence the handy pics that JD put up) but it really is a mistake to assume that.

You only read half of a post before you make a comment, huh?
This isn't like a picture book where you get the whole story by just flipping through the pages and looking at the pretty pictures.
