Not Just For Liberals Anymore

Tea Party Express Illinois

(photo: Scott Olson/Getty Images. caption: Tea Party supporters listen to speaker at a rally for the Tea Party Express national tour during a stop at Davis Park on April 6, 2010 in Rockford, Illinois. The Tea Party Express members are on a cross-country tour to rally support for the Tea Party agenda including their conservative causes and candidates.)

So, I’m having trouble understanding this sign.

Without laying down a lot of snark, though, I’m appreciating more and more how the Tea Party is mostly an umbrella for the angry, the confused, the frustrated. (What emphasizes that even more is how this woman in red is centered between someone who apparently thinks the health care legislation might possibly be repealed and one more guy sensing revolution by putting on a powdered wig.)
