Hopefully, people will see the situation and Tea Baggers for what they are and reject the maddening hype in November.

I used to think that 'hate' was a very limited emotion, that it burned out. The Tea Bag movement and the rise of ignorant Christian fundamentalism (and I call it 'ignorant', because of how many of the followers overlook the seperation of church and state, calling this a country established under Christianity) makes me think not of the culture wars of the 80's and 90's but of the social battles that would take place in the 50's & 60's. <br /><br />But the opposite to the conservative movement were more organized and had more resolve. It always seems that those on the right are more focused and determined to make up things to fit their agenda, including history. Once that happens, who knows where the country will end up?Big Mark 243https://www.blogger.com/profile/10974573439218884164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736448434152217111.post-61728890268504805412010-09-21T09:25:50.136-04:002010-09-21T09:25:50.136-04:00I feel dumber for having read the Newt quote.
