10. Actually, you're failing to read what's on the sign.
"Tax Enough Already." Imperative tense, made urgent by the addition of already. It means that taxes should be made sufficient, presumably to cover expenditures. So by her own sign this lady is not a teabagger, but in fact calling for tax increases.

5. God damn it
Sports stadiums are supposed to be neutral ground where we only hate each other because of team affiliations.

8. Really? She's taxed enough?
I'd ask her what her tax rate is now, and what it was five years ago. I'll bet a shiny nickel she couldn't name either rate. Then I'd ask her what she thinks a fair rate should be, and what services she thinks the government ought to provide for the (no doubt) oodles of money she'd contribute to the federal coffers. For example, does she like driving on safe, well-engineered roads? Does she enjoy good, wholesome food from the market, knowing that it probably won't poison her? And if she does get poisoned, would she like a court system set up with rules of procedure that would give her the best chance of prevailing against the company that poisoned her?

I suspect long before I got to that point, however, she would have either called stadium security or trundled her ignorant ass out of there.

9. Stupidity, the most dangerous enemy our country has ever faced.
And if Americans become even dumber I don't see this country continuing to exist.
