A woman just called cspan
Edited on Sun Apr-11-10 06:43 AM by butterfly77
and she was complaining about people calling them TEABAGGERS she said it was as offensive as f--k,sh--,etc..

She wanted the host to stop callers from using it. I will be using it early and often. She also said the election will be a blow out for Dems,beecause they are so many TEABAGGERS.

A guy called in and said, TEABAGGERS couldn't be racist against the President because his mother was white...

ANOTHER GUY JUST CALLED AND SAID THE PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLING PEOPLE RACIST ARE THE RACISTS.

4. Some guy just said teabag was offencive...

And she asked if there was any way we can talk constructive about it and he was dumbfounded by it.
It required him to think which was never required by the Hate Radio Network that he hears all the time.
Thinking for oneself is dangerous.

6. they seemed to be just fine with it until they learned what the dirty meaning wa
i must admit i never heard of teabagging until this fiasco. personally i am not for calling people names as i don't find it constructive (unless it's calling palin winky or bush an idiot). but i do find it funny that the folks that are calling people names like socialist don't like namecalling.

Edited on Sun Apr-11-10 07:12 AM by butterfly77

17. As per usual w/teabaggers--always struggling to catch up. They were fine being
called teabaggers, for *months.* A day late and a dollar short.

14. Teabaggers Need To Grow A Skin...
(foreskin? :rofl:)

Awww...they're "offended". Shall I give a list of all the crap they've called Democrats over the year...not to mention all the truly offensive and racist slurs aimed at our President. I find their term "tea party" to be offensive...it's an insult to the real original patriots who have zero in common with the animals that inhabit the rushpublican party.

18. I Love The Outrage...
Here are asshats who call this President every ugly epitet in the book (including new ones they made up) and they're "offended??". These "paragons of virtue" who include a Senator who wears diapers, another under federal investigation for boofing his chief of staff's wife and tried to buy his way out of it and the list goes on. With their lack of scrupples and their vile and violent rhetoric, they deserve all they get and more.

I saw C-SPIN this morning and methinks this is more an effort to intimidate the host and the corporate media...who have been abetting all this ugly crap.

I may be wrong

19. They named themselves Teabaggers.
The enduring image are the people wearing hats with teabags hanging from the brims. And as long as these people say "Democrat Party" they are officially "Teabaggers" in my vocabulary.

Edited on Sun Apr-11-10 04:21 PM by blondeatlast
They made that goof from the get-go, now they are being petulant, and I'm loving their little white whine fests.

35. I stopped listening to what the callers on C-SPAN say.
For every intelligent caller, there are four that make you wonder if they even graduated high school.
