Since I know you're concerned . . .
I wanted to let you know the Tea Party reps read the MO state constitution on the floor of the House in Jeff City yesterday on opening day.
I was in the gallery. Left before they finished reading the whole thing.
Tea Party peeps are EVERYWHERE in Jeff City. We saw them in the halls of the Capitol, at lunch in the cafeteria, walking the grounds and even in our hotel.

that's discouraging.

2. I'm not surprised at all.
I've noticed them all over in my area. Further central and south they are usually more plentiful. Many of them are farmers who complain about paying any taxes, yet receive any number of farm subsidies.

3. And they're typically over 60
Didn't see any young ones during our visit.
For anyone wondering how we know who they are, they wear silly t-shirts and hats. One group we encountered was talking so loudly everyone in the room could hear them.

4. I figured it was easy to identify them.
The ones up here wear stupid trucker style caps with idiotic logos, usually matching the ones on their trucks. Oh, and they yell about everything, usually about how they are being "subjected".
Around here they start in their thirties but those are a certain type. At that age they just bitch and moan and swear they'll vote for or against (fill in the blank). In their fifties is when you see them out with the hats and talking about protests.
(As a college town we have a whole different subsect of tea partiers who are in their twenties and in love with Ron Paul. That's a story that would take so long to discuss!)

5. Around these parts, it is easiest to tell the teabaggers by their signs
They put them in their yards, or on their vehicles as bumper stickers. I don't see a lot of them in public spouting their absurd nonsense. They do have rallies from time to time, but I have not seen one in person, just on the news or in the papers.

6. I've witnessed the rage in person.
A few I really wanted to laugh at, until I realized that they had their gun racks in their trucks stocked.
I thought the "teabaggers" were dead and gone.
how-to on identifying Tea Partiers in Missouri
That is easy enough, just look for the folks that have jobs and aren't collecting welfare checks.

They also are polite, courteous, humble, generous, and don't emit strange, foul odors.
They don't have tattoos covering their arms, piercings on their navels or genitals, or looking like they fell face first into an open tackle box.
You can usually find a great number of them in a church on a Sunday morning. They cling to their God, their guns, and their freedoms, and believe the borders should be CLOSED, and ILLEGAL aliens should be sent home.
You sure as hell won't find them breaking laws, destroying private or public property, or at ANY Occupy movement.
And you sure as hell won't find them voting for Zero come November.
They are the REAL 99%!

We the people of Missouri, with profound reverence for the Supreme Ruler of the Universe, and grateful for His goodness, do establish this constitution for the better government of the state.

Oh dear, the first Tuesday in November this year is going to be priceless!

Don't you mean first Wendnesday, Nov 7th? That's election day... :wink:
Hey Pammie, we're north of the cowboy hat line. All of us Show-Me Staters have a bunch of different ball caps ("Trucker hats" indeed; mostly seed & feed or farm equipment maker hats, with some assorted milsurp item or social group logo hat thrown in).
Feel free to move your fat leech-like ass to another feeding ground.
Why golly, another stereotype that allows them to put people in neat little boxes thus not upsetting their tender sensibilities. I'd rather be a redneck farmer with a John Deere hat that works hard and showers daily than a filthy hippie or professional academic (who's never spent a day in the real world working at a real job) who only bathes every month or so when the patchouli oil no longer masks the stench.The true mark of a redneck isn't the John Deere hat. The hat is great.

No, the true mark of an uncivilized lout is when the hat stays on his head inside a restaurant.

Fool.
I have an American flag on my dashboard and carry a gun. I guess that's the only "sign" I give to DUmmies.
Two things, Jess . .
1) You carry the gun on your dashboard? :o
2) You don't give them these signs? :evilbird: :redbird: :bird:
I'm content to let them keep thinking such a thing. :evillaugh:Exactly, we are the *extinct* Tea Party that took over 645 state legislature seats nationwide in 2010, and that was only our trial run. We just got started. That was a tidal wave. 2012 will be an tsunami.
BY THE WAY--the Die alte Sau and Pamela are not the same primitives. There seems to be some confusion here, as both are teachers from Kansas. Pamela is the stupid one, the Die alte Sau the bitter, angry, hate-filled one.
Proud2BDUmb Anne is simply an evil, hateful person, far more worthy of contempt than Pam, but also far less interesting.
Her value to the human race is zero.
