3. I wonder how some of the tea bags feel

now that they know they were scammed. I know a lot of them don't care. But I be some are upset because they were made to look like fools.

4. Like Taibbi said in the interview, with a few isolated exceptions, teabaggers won't admit it

All they know is there's a nazi-socialist-communist-Kenyan-Democrat in the White House who's Black. And Limpballs, Sean Insanity, Beckkk, et al tell them it's bad, so that's how they'll think.

Is it just me, or do conservatives these days show absolutely no ability to think for themselves? They have to get their talking points and directions from a higher authority. And that includes the talk show hosts mentioned above. There's consistently been too much similarity in the use of key words and phrases from all of these parties for it not to be orchestrated from a single source.
