I will admit that I do not know who The Tea Party is composed of, all I know is that I agree with some of their premises and tenets. I do know that some of the members of this loosely organized political action party are ignorant morons and jerks.
I heard from this “fringe” group of the party as they made racist remarks and held racist signs at the Capital building in Washington, DC.
Now I see the same moronic crowd, that obviously have money, putting up billboards that make one’s blood boil.
The above billboard equates Obama with Adolf Hitler and Lenin as all individual that were CHANGE proponents. I guess at the most basic level the authors of the billboard message were correct in saying that those three (3) men, all called for a change.
A poll of the U.S. population revealed that the majority of people do not know history; not their own or that of the world; many cannot even name the last three (3) presidents and yet they feel competent enough with their historical knowledge to equate Obama with Hitler and Lenin – expletive!!!

As far as the message that RADICAL LEADERS PREY ON THE FEARFUL AND NAIVE, well in some cases that is very true as in a lynch mob type of mentality. Hitler used virulent anti-semitism to fuel anger, Lenin used anti-royal / priveleged to fuel a class war and many religious leaders use the ignorance of people to fill their minds with silly superstitions (repent, the world is coming to an end) but Obama? Who is preying on the fearful and naive are those that put up signs like the one above. No person with a brain cell to his name would ever buy into the crap these people spew so who is left?
I feel the Tea Party has something good to say about how we should conduct the business of this country but first they really need to distance themselves from the assholes in their party if they are to be taken seriously by anyone.
