Teaparty etc., are motivated by greed and selfishness, fear and ignorance.

This cocktail is necessary otherwise they would be liberals.

Greed and selfishness are not exactly the same thing.

One can be greedy but also generous to others.

The average teapartier would rather a person die than take tax dollars to support.

Rick Santorum just the other day said in plain English he wants to kill a billion Muslims.

So yes, this well known, loud and popular Christian has openly advocated for murdering one billion human beings.
