Ignorant!!!
Let's not call them dumb. Some may even be very intelligent.
But what they share is a proud, willful ignorance which disguises any intelligence they might have. This ignorance is born out of an ideology which is blind to any evidence or argument. That makes them so resistant to changing their opinions and therefore learning how things really work.
It is the one thing that makes them difficult to fight politically. There is a cult like nature to their beliefs, which is another reason why they are such a problem.

Murderous. Terrorizing. Illegal. Zombies. Puke-****s.
Of all the nutcases out there, the Tea Party assholes are the ONLY group to warrant Department of Homeland Security coverage. NOT Code Pink. NOT OWS.
The Tea Party is the most despotic, destructive, dangerous group of individuals in world history, and need to be dealt with.

Notice the one option they omitted? Taxpayers. AKA your providers.
I don't see how they can call the Tea Party "corporatists", since they are very much against crony capitalism and corporate influence in government. Like all good capitalists, they believe that business should succeed or fail on its own merits within the marketplace rather than being cut sweetheart deals and getting shored up by Washington. They just want politicians to get out of the way and stop stifling business growth through oppressive taxes and idiotic regulations.

One word.
I can think of one......solid citizen.
Which word best describes the Tea Party??
I'm really quite surprised that none of the primitives came up with 'TEAOCON' - I kinda felt that one was obvious, as it combines two groups of people they hate in a convenient little package.
They really do stink at this game, dont they ?
Especially since a Neanderthal Rethuglikkkan such as myself came up with it when they didn't. -'morans'....
