They had their chance. They failed, and now they should shut up and be happy we're paying their social security.
They are American citizens. They have the right to speak up.

And people over 65 aren't baby boomers.

The poll did say that other than skewing to the right a bit, TP demographics were completely in line with the nation at large.

This "Statisical Information" came from the same media that has reported that the "teabaggers" are a violent, radical, crew but refuse to acknowledge that the majority of recent terror attacks around the world, and attempted attacks here, were committed by MUSLIMS!!!!! We can't say that, but we can talk about the "violent" 65 year old man and woman who don't want the government's hands in their pockets anymore than they already are. This is the same media that willingly labels "Tea Party" members as being racist, but nary a word is printed or aired about VIOLENT Latin protests in California and Arizona where people call for the OVERTHROW of the American "occupiers", destroy property, and assault Police Officers.....Wake Up America before it is too late.......get your news from Fox News......I'm not sure where to get it anymore but the "Lamestream Media" is not the place as they are attempting to run this country with their crazy liberal "politically correct" agenda!!!

So what if the Tea Party aren't black? What's the difference?
Is it a crime to be non-black?

What a bunch of yellow-bellied cowards on the left these days. Scared of white senior citizens. LMFAO. Oooooooohhhhhhhh. They might be violent.

What happened to the tough guys on the left? Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Ho Chi Min, Attila the Hun..............Not a one of those lefties was scared of old, white senior citizens. LOLs.

It takes a cowardice political party and a cowardice media to try and marginalize people for being white. Cowards indeed.

The right a bit? Teaparty folk are almost twice as conservative, almost twice as republican and 1.5x more anti-choice then the rest of America...I'd say that's more then a bit.

1 out of 3 is older than 65, 1 out of 4 is older than 45.
Less than 6% are Democrats
73% call themselves conservative.
More than half of Tea Party supporters describe themselves as "angry"
63% get their news from Fox News
More than half are against legalized abortion
More than half believe Obama was not born in the US or are not sure where he was born.
1 out of 4 believe Obama administration favors Blacks over Whites

Tea party = aging, middle class whites whining about their hard lives.

What % of democrats are black? If its anything other than 17% they are racist.
Lets take a prison poll and see the demographics for that next.
Or maybe an illegal aliens poll.
Lets poll all welfare recipients.
How about a gang member poll.
