Do tea baggers know what teabagging means?
Have you read the definition of teabagging? This gives new meaning to their movement. What will we tell the children?

2. They didn't when they first procliamed they were teabagging
but once they found out they decided they didn't like the name they gave themselves.

3. Yes, that's why they are calling themselves "tea partiers" ...
but they will always be teabaggers to me.

6. They know now.
The fact that they didn't get it before is utterly hilarious.

7. My kids informed me of the meaning yesterday...
Had I known what this crowd was really promoting, I would have been even more outraged!

And they call themselves Christians?

8. I battle regularly with teabaggers in the online forum of my local Gannett fishwrap
After some in the media began making fun of the teabaggers for their ignorance in calling themselves teabaggers, one of the local teabaggers found out and complained to the editor of the paper, who put the word 'teabagger' in their offensive word filter. It's easily defeated, however, by typing 'tea bagger' or any variation thereof. Teabaggers would complain when the word filter was circumvented, but the list was never updated, so it remains easy to get across the BAG part of the description. They are - and forever will remain - TEABAGGERS!

9. I had the pleasure of informing my mom (who watches FOX and listens to Rush).
She thought it was some sort of "homosexual slang" with no idea what it meant.

12. BINGO
Like the used, abused, tossed aside far right xians, they are witless tools of a class of people who used diversion to maintain their positions in a culture where they are astoundingly outnumbered.

11. no. They also don't know what patriotism means
or that 'support the troops' takes tax dollars, not a silly magnet on their cars.

They don't know what communism is.

They don't know what fascism is.

They don't know beans about the economic realities in America and the world.

They don't have a clue about social responsibilities while they LOVE to use socially paid for infrastructure.

They don't know how to face reality.

They don't know there is any such thing as CRITICAL THINKING.
