Call him a terrorist. Just don’t call Joe Stack a Tea Partier.Reader Cassie responds to Geoff Simpson Vs. the Teabaggers, Vol. II: Now With Twice the Fake Outrage.”Ugh, this is so dumb.”His response of ‘if the shoe fits, wear it’ shows he was trying to be insulting. Now he’s feigning that he didn’t know what the word means? Riiiight.By all means, these people have called themselves Tea Partiers, Tea Party Protesters, and Tea Party Patriots. Some also have unfortunately and naively used the verb ‘teabag’ or the word ‘teabagger’ much to the left’s delight, who took the word and ran with it, relishing in the inadvertent double entendre and branding them all ‘teabaggers’ at every opportunity. Grow up.””Futhermore, and most importantly, the man who flew the airplane into the IRS building, Stack, is a full on domestic terrorist, and someone only whackos could be proud of. Yes, both he and Tea Partiers are frustrated by increasing taxes. But that doesn’t mean he’s representative of the Tea Party movement or conservatives – he also happened to hate big business, want universal health care, hate Bush, hated capitalism, and quoted from the Communist manifesto. Have you read his suicide note? The Tea Party is being set up as having some ownership of this person, when anyone who reads his note and still continues to try to link the two in people’s minds is dishonestly politicizing a terrible tragedy.”
