For every teabagger who is caught up in that world, it seems like every body thinks like they do, But they don't, most of their positions and ideas are way out of the mainstream.

Maybe you are right about where we are, but I am not seeing it yet.

Thanks for posting though, I appreciated reading what you wrote. It is thought provoking so I am going to recommend it.
