Teabaggers have every right to be angry
They really do.
Put yourself in their shoes just for a moment. Their guys were in power for eight years - and in those eight years, under their ideology, is America better off today than 8 years ago?
Two wars waged,
trillions of dollars wasted,
no regulations on Wall street causing a collapse.
Kicking the bill for the wars and the financial bailout to the next guy, who must find the money somewhere.
not one iota of fiscal responsibility - which inevitably leaves it to the next guy to deal with.
Record job losses,
foreclosures,
the car industry collapse,
bankruptcies.

Don't you see? They ARE angry. They are angry and all they have to show for it in terms of LEADERSHIP are two radio talk show hosts and a governer in Alaska that cuts and runs - a quitter, whose recent claim to fame is a facebook page. Come on - really.

Their anger is misplaced of course - because to really address the root causes, would mean they would have to question the ideology of the republican party, and they have not yet the BALLS to realize that their guys fu______ up so badly, they have been sold a damaged bill of goods. So, they do the only thing they can do - they project that anger to Obama.
Look - Glenn Beck did not even have the gonads to march today by their side. Some leader there.

Yeah - teabaggers are angry. If my party screwed the nation over as horrifically as Bush did....I would be angry to. And I would probably trust government not one single bit. My faith in politics would be severely shaken.

1. Agreed - except their guys didn't F$#K up badly - they raped and pillaged
the treasury and enriched all their cronies as they attempted to 'prove' that government couldn't do anything right.

And yes, the ideology of everything they've supported has failed.
