Probably. But if strict adherence to the constitution is their thing, we should find it easy to persuade the brighter and less brainwashed among them that the real anticonstitutionalists are right wingers, not leftists. Just like when prospective teabaggers are outraged at Obama's plans to cut Medicare we should be able to persuade the brighter and less brainwashed among them that the real answer is to offer Medicare to everybody, not force them to buy insurance from the Health Insurance Corporations that they hate! > On 2/18/10, Shane Mage wrote: >> Common ground? >> >>> Tea Party leaders say they know their complaints about shredded >>> constitutional principles and excessive spending ring hollow to >>> some, >>> given their relative passivity through the Bush years.
