Tea Bag Stats

My Youtube video about the Tea Party turnout in NYC has gotten a ton of attention and nasty comments with poor grammar. So, here are some facts* about the mysterious Tea Bag people:
- Tea Bags make up 18% of the country.
- Tea Bags have the sign-making skills of 3rd graders.
- 52% of Tea Bags believe that too much is being made of the problems of Black Americans, but deny that Obama has anything to do with their belief.
- 89% are white.
- 36% live in the South.
- 78% own Ed Hardy clothing.
- 39% are Evangelical Christians.
- 58% have a gun in their home.
- 80% have a Bedazzler in their home.
- 50% watch Fox news for Political coverage.
- 0% are gay. 
- 5% don't know it yet.
- 75% are over 45 years of age.
- 99.9% are angry.
*A special thanks to CBS Sunday Morning for providing many of these facts.

The Ed Hardy clothing stat is a shocker, Pete. I'm going to have to get rid of all my hoodies now, lest people think I'm a tea bag!
