Teabaggers want less government |
|
More specifically, they want less "Government of the people, by the people, and for the people". In fact, they would be overjoyed if such a government would simply "perish from the Earth".

3. In the sort of minimalist government they prefer |

I envision Tea Baggers collectively as the fat guy who dances when the bad guy shoots at his feet and his pals laugh.

4. No, they want less of the government they don't want. |
|
They want medicare and social security, fire and police protection, and good roads. They don't want education, welfare, health care for all, etc.

5. They want less democracy |
|
The idea that people will vote for anything they don't like enrages them.
