It seems like a common theme among wingnuts that anyone who disagrees with them is a single mind in many bodies. That they address people who disagree having a single mind and the exact smae worldview into one giant straw man.

It's honestly kind of disturbing to watch people think the world is one giant straw man to project all their issues onto. On the other hand, it gets pretty easy to see who has lost their mind.

The existence of people like Ted Cruz, Steve King, Louie Gohmert, and Michele Bachmann would seem to run counter to your assertion.

No the existence of these people seem to prove my assertion. The people who you hear scream the loudest are the liberals by attacking them and their voters as stupid.

Some even wore and brought firearms to Obama's and democrat town hall meetings, you mean, those teabaggers?

Yeah, is it any wonder why anyone would dislike a teabagger?

1. I never claimed teabaggers were unimportant-stop putting words in other people's mouths.
2. yes, I had a problem with people depicting Bush as a Nazi.
3. you assume way too much.

He Liberals if it was all so true then why would you be so concerned in stopping them?
Seems you would understand if the tea party was everything you say they are then it would guarantee a liberal win in every election..
So Liberals why do you want them stopped and what is the point of the labels attacks and smear campaign?
Not sure about guaranteeing, but it sure IS helping liberals win elections. Why do you think Obama got reelected and retained the Senate, even though people are not thrilled with him or with ACA? It's because people still find him more appealing when the loudest alternative is nutty right-wingers who threaten a "burn the whole village down" style of politics. Most Americans don't want that, and the recent polls are clearly telling you this (if you would open your eyes and actually take a hard look at them). Unfortunately, nutty right-wingers pretty much by definition are immune to reason, so it all goes over their heads.

Americans are not stupid, which is why the majority rejects the tea party and places most of the blame for this current fiasco on the GOP.

It's disturbing that people don't understand that they can't live above their means, eventually it will end in catastrophe. Living above their means is what got so many americans in trouble in the first place. So lets just do the same thing and cry the blues as these failures did.

If the tea party is helping elect liberals why do the liberals attack them
