3. I watched it again today,

Man, it's a classic...............

8. I just wonder if there isn't truth it.
They say "Tea bag Obama", like an aggressive thing. But what is it in itself to aggressively tea bag somebody in general? We can imagine a strange act, where one aggressively places one's testicles, the most sensitive place of a man's body in the mouth of another against their will. The result is that the other person bites, or they do not. If they do not bite, they have been humiliated and shown as weak. If they do bite, well look at that savage, who bit a man's testicles off. Like Mike Tyson with the ear. So long as you aren't the pawn who lost his nuts, there is something to be gained either way.

What I'm wondering is if this isn't an actual Freudian thing that reflects what's actually being done. These pawns are being pushed pushed to provoke Liberals and the president, to the extent of hate. I wonder if the goal isn't to ridicule the president if weak if he doesn't act, or lambaste him as a savage tyrant if he does. One thing that is for sure is that the people behind it aren't the ones with their nuts on the chopping block...Somebody needs to help the people being used as pawns here realize exactly what situation they are being place into.

12. It ain't that complicated.
The teabaggers think they're a bunch of patriots who are reenacting the Boston Tea Party, striking a blow for liberty and all that. They don't know what teabagging means and that they're making asses of themselves. No Freudian overtones, just stupidity.

14. I'll take your word for it. But I still think its strange I have heard them use "teabagging"
As a verb. Isn't that pretty clear? Strange stuff indeed. :shrug:

16. Is ACORN Seeking To Sabotage Teabagging Day?
Edited on Fri Apr-10-09 08:16 PM by L. Coyote
Is ACORN Seeking To Sabotage Teabagging Day?
.... according to a secret e-mail forwarded from inside the Teabagger HQ, in Texas, we learn that the ACORNs will be reporting on “dissention” — directly to President Obama.

HERE is the intercept, just in from Agent Mike's secret, undisclosed location
(= http://wonkette.com/407715/is-acorn-seeking-to-sabotage-teabagging-day)

from Charlyreddog to all members of Texans for America on America Coast 2 Coast!

ANOTHER TEA PARTY HEADS UP!

The following information was forwarded to me from another webring:

TEA PARTY CAUTION! DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING -
FROM ANYONE - AT ANY TEA PARTY ANYWHERE IN
THE USA —- NO EXCEPTIONS!

Federally-funded ACORN operators will be at all Tea Parties to get signatures which they will give to Obama stating that the signatures are in support of his policies or to get the names of people who oppose his policies and report dissention.

NO MATTER WHAT, DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING! IF YOU HAVE FRIENDS WHO PLAN TO ATTEND, WHO DO NOT HAVE EMAIL, GET ON THE PHONE TO WARN THEM. TRY TO CALL OR EMAIL RADIO TALK SHOWS AND LET THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG.

PASS IT ON!

Remember, IF YOU DO NOT HAVE E-MAIL, YOU MUST E-MAIL RADIO SHOWS about ACORN and OBAMA who are basically the SS and Hitler, all over again.
