Top Teabagger is mad: Don't call us 'an offensive sexual slur'
The teabaggers don't like being called teabaggers. Yesterday, via email, I got a press release from one of the leaders of the teabagging movement, David Webb, the "Co-Founder Tea Party 365, Inc." Webb is steamed at Senator Chuck Schumer:
The senior Senator from New York has joined the ranks of Janeane Garofalo, Bill Maher, Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow and Chris Matthews in insulting Americans who exercise their rights in a Democratic manner. These stalwarts of Liberalism claim to uphold fiercely the rights of all, unless you hold a position that does not suit them. Massachusetts residents have legitimate policy concerns about Martha Coakley and a 1st Amendment Right to voice them.

Senator Schumer stated in an official email "Martha Coakley is running to fill the rest of Ted Kennedy's term, and her opponent is a far-right tea-bagger Republican." The accurate definition of "tea-bagger" or any derivation is an offensive sexual slur referring to the placement of a man's testicles on a woman's chin. One can only wonder how the women in Senator Schumer's offices, residents of New York or any woman who interacts with the Senator feel about his public and official use of such an offensive sexual slur in referring to American citizens he is elected to represent.


Who knew the teabaggers were so thin-skinned? And, I don't think Webb's definition is quite "accurate."

6. THEY came up with it themselves. They even registered the domain name.
Don't forget, "Let's teabag Washington before they teabag us!"

Besides, this is coming from the same crowd who gave us the anti-Hillary group, Citizens United Not Timid (C.U.N....)

They're nasty anyway, so it's suits them. That's probably what they do when they aren't out making threats and holding up dumb signs.

26. Real teabagging is so much more than "balls on chin", these people crack me up.
They really need to get out more.

I mean, balls on chin???

What's erotic, kinky, fun about that?

"Honey, I'm feeling kind of experimental. May I place my testicles on your chin?"

Most teabagging I would bet is the placing of one man's balls in ANOTHER MAN'S eagerly waiting mouth!!!

How clueless these homophobic assholes are...

AND they completely forget that THEY came up with the "teaBAGGER" moniker IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!

So fucking eager to re-write history!!!
