Teabaggers insist that they should be in charge and do not want to relent from their demands on the shut down. Their grotesque policies are unthinkable.

(16 posts)they were an absolute disaster. Take a look at history. We tried living without Social Security, Medicare, welfare, minimum wage laws, child labor laws, OSHA, environmental regulations, state's right that led to segregation and disenfranchisement, lack of unions and labor bargaining power, financial deregulation, energy deregulation, etc.
We also tried the Tea Bagging policies over in the Northern Marianas. Republicans championed the free market success of the Northern Marianas and lack of regulations and standards and what happened? We had sweatshops, people living in squalor, sex trade, and forced abortions, while a few people raked in the money.

(10,602 posts)Gun nuts tend to be tea baggers. That does not mean teabaggers are gun nuts. But they are a particular kind of crazy. And they are fundamentally racists believing Obama is giving all their money to minorities that they use other despicable terms for. These people are like a dog with rabies. And their is no way you will ever reach them.
