Teabaggers Mock & Scorn Man With Parkinson's

Everyone involved in politics has to be careful with how they react to certain events and the type of language they use, since there is a lot of emotion involved. But I don't think it is overstating it to say that certain members of the Tea Party movement are just downright mean, heartless people.
