HAHAHAHAHA!!! That’s funny!
Can you believe some of our less enlightened citizenry were so ignorant of the special meaning of that brilliant expression that they would unwittingly use it to describe themselves? God! How retarded is that, Rahm!!
I’ve been trying to get to the bottom of who really started using the “teabagger” term first. Seems like the CW is settled science in the search engine results, but does it really matter whether the Tea Partiers used it first– as MSNBC claims — thereby totally justifying the hilarious frat house onslaught that ensued?
The interminable sophomoric celebration of this loaded label by progressive retards such as the ones MSNBC is not simply juvenile, it reflects an ongoing tendency to forgo substantive argument in favor of personal partisan attack. Ridiculing people for not being up on the latest deviant slang lexicon says much more about those perpetuating the nonsense than those they wish to insult.
Those who delight in the sound this innuendo makes coming from their mouths do well to ponder the implications of how they are currently positioned – politically speaking, of course –in this whole business of “teabaggery”. As I read in a comment somewhere shortly after the MA election: “How do those tea bags taste now, Keith?”
However the Progs feel about the Tea Partiers, they might at least thank them for helping destroy the abomination known as Health Insurance Reform. God forbid anyone who was a true advocate of single payer UHC would get involved with a movement that might prevent Dear Leader from the “success” of signing any old shameless insurance industry bailout scam.
Obviously, no self-respecting “progressive” would be caught dead endorsing the grass roots movement more or less co-opted by the likes of Dick Army and the dreaded Sarah Palin.
But perhaps the smell of AstroTurf will remind them of those heady days of the 2008 primary; and how kewl it felt to be, like, a revolutionary — demonstrating against “The Man” (or woman, as the case may be) – as opposed to being some limp, impotent tool worshiping some Champion of the Washington/Wall Street corporate establishment elite.
