Re: understandable
I went over this a while back, showing that one reason the Left is stumped by the Tea Party movement is that, despite all their lip service, they really have no understanding of actual decentralized "grass roots" movements. The constant assumption, and you see it even in some postings here, is that there is some "mastermind" or "official party leader" running the operation. The pyramid is the natural form for almost all leftist groups and societies. They have a hard time thinking outside that paradigm.
