15. It's only similar in its intensity. Otherwise it's completely different. "The left's
rage at a machine politics and the ruling oligarchs hold over our country and government" is understandable because we have a system of machine politics in which ruling oligarchs hold sway over our country and government. "Bubba rage" is based on fear of problems that aren't even problems, like the existence of non-white people, non-Christians, and gay people. Perfect example: look at how the rank-and-file Teabaggers were almost literally foaming at the mouth with rage over taxes they weren't even paying.
