That poll shouldn’t be surprising since day after day the Tea Parties are called racists, terrorists, dupes of the corporate structure, and more by the mass media, the left, the DNC and every other group that loves a large centralized federal government.

And don't forget the way the moron left latched on to the term "teabagger" and ran with it. Imagine the outrage on the left if Republicans started referring to liberals as "libtards" openly....
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

If the left had coined the term "libtards" and willing used it to describe themselves, then I would see nothing wrong with it. But they didn't.
The first big day for this movement was Tax Day, April 15,2009. And organizers had a gimmick. They asked people to send a tea bag to the Oval Office. One of the exhortations was “Tea Bag the Fools in D.C.” A protester was spotted with a sign saying, “Tea Bag the Liberal Dems Before They Tea Bag You.” So, conservatives started it: started with this terminology.

Well wayne, you know as well as anyone that the tea party movement never described themselves as "teabaggers", this was a name started (I believe) by the brain dead Janeane Garafalo and the liberals thought it was funny and ran with it. I could care less other than it's just more divisive rhetoric that liberals are suppose to be so much above unless it's directed at them.

Janeane Garofalo: "Herman Cain is probably well liked by some of the Republicans because it hides the racist elements of the Republican party. Conservative movement and tea party movement, one in the same.
Yes, 65-80% is such a "limited number of people." Keep whistling past the graveyard, and jus' keep doin' what yer doin'....
Actually every indication so far has shown that the TEA party is successful. From winning over democrat seats in the congress - to failed attempts from the left to unseat republicans in Wisconsin, to what just happened in a very liberal district in New York- republicans and the TEA party seem to be the favorite choice for voters - especially when the choice is between a big spending democrat and a TEA party republican.
The signs are on the wall for the left- Americans think we are on the wrong path. You all you lefties keep doing what your doing, and we shall see who gets replaced in 2012. My guess is that Americans go with the TEA party.

The teabagger name started with the tea baggers themselves, but I don't argue that the left ran with it.
Keith Olbermann said, “It is as useful to remind them anew of how the term originated and with whom. A TV news report aired last March 14 in which a correspondent described the original protest act, ‘take a teabag, put it in an envelope, and mail it to the White House.’ He added, ‘reteaparty.com has a headline Teabag the Fools in D.C. on tax day.’ Thus the verb to teabag was invented by the teabaggers themselves, and the correspondent who put it on TV was a Griff Jenkins of Fox News. Send your complaints to him.”
The teabaggers coined their own name, without realizing what it also means, and then they blamed their critics for their stupidity. Fox News helped spread the term before MSNBC got a hold of it, (

) but as we know in the teabagger mind, Fox News can do no wrong, so it is a given that they won’t believe Olbermann, or me for that matter.
.In my humble opinion....It didn't start out as hate. It began as fear from the top left. Besides supporting smaller government and lower taxes , the people of America are rapidly becoming educated on how to be less dependent of this government. After all....their goal is to make us 100% dependent on them.
This is when they will take complete control of every facet of our lives and their damn good at it.
You see...With out any one to think for and no one around that needs their lives run for them...well you get the picture ! The left will have no purpose , no direction and become absolutely worthless in their own eyes. They hate to be told their compassionate and charitable help is not required by We the People.
America is the land of opportunity NOT entitlement. Well Fair was never intended to be a career opportunity either. I say " annoy a liberal - Work hard and be Happy" The liberal / Socialist mind set has to be locked in the basement and starved to death.
We have precious little time left to pull together as one to keep our freedoms. God Bless this Free Republic we call Home !
Remember.... The far left does not see our founding document (the Constitution of the United States of America ) as a gift. They look at it as an obstacle stopping them from moving forward with their treasonous agenda to put our freedoms and liberties on the shopping block.
Protect our constitution at all costs. In reality...it's the only thing standing between our freedom and this current 'Socialist Regime' WE WILL TAKE OUT THE TRASH IN NOVEMBER OF 2012.
