what they have as a group is an oppressed complex and low self esteem.

Um, yes that's true.

So, if you have competing information, this would be the place to post it, as it encourages debate.

It's not very easy to break down each individual in a multi million man party so I chose a common trait to describe them.

I though I did rather whell.

seriously though I see allot of anger based in feelings of inadequacy coming from the tea bags.

nah, I'll go with common sense as this is not a technical enough debate to warrant such a time consuming response plus you posted no information, you posted interpretation which I can do on my own just fine.

Frankly I see to many followers of Beck not thinking for themselves and feel it is very dangerous. Now Beck is ordering them to put away their crazy signs so that he can shape the image of this movement. Don't you find that frightening? I think we all should weather we are a happy teabagger or an intellectuality elite (Rob)

I woul dbe curious to hear your "undocumented" though on this.
thanks and hope you day is well!
