.... how would that even work? Teabaggers are antiintellectual - that's one of the two things (the other being racism) that DEFINE the movement.

Saying "Teabagger intellectual" is like saying "non-racist Teabagger" or "non-homophobic NOM member". It's adding a trait that is the opposite of a requirement for membership in that group.

Saying "teabagger intellectual" is like saying "everything in his imagination of himself exists to support and nurture his self-hatred".

Which is the sad thing about Card, nearly drowned out in the tidal way of loathsome and creepy; there's a capable mind in there. It's been absolutely convinced that it should hate itself for possessing some of its particular fundamental traits, and it works really hard at doing just that.
