A teabagger is slang-derogatory of either a woman that sucks balls or a ******.
And your point was what?
A teabagger is also the name chosen by the teaparty which has been controlled by the crazy extreme right wing since shortly after it's inception. I didn't give them that name...they chose it, and were quite proud of it until someone told them what it meant in the past. They proudly proclaimed that's what they are, and I intend to honor that choice every time it is appropriate. My overall point was that I thoroughly enjoy a discussion of the facts, and will respond in the manner that I am addressed. You want to discuss facts, great. You want to start out with insults and flame me? You better be ready to receive at least as much as you give. I usually enjoy one as well as the other, but constant childish back and forth gets tedious after a while.
Come on...at least have the courage to admit when you are insulting people, Bulldog! You know that the term "teabagger" was coined by the left to mock a newly formed conservative group that grew out of opposition to "Big Government".
When I call someone a "treehugger" it isn't because that's what they decided to call themselves...it's a derogatory term and used to poke fun at others.
Sure, I know they don't like it, but the difference is that those goobers did actually chose the name, and were quite proud of it until they received ridicule for it. Here is an official video put out by the tea party.
If I made a choice that bad, I would be embarrassed too.
When I hear and have heard for years about how all liberals are lazy bums who just lay on the couch, smoke dope, hate the country, want to rape your kids and turn them gay, etc. etc. I find it a little hard to feel the sensitivity the right wants us to have in this one situation. I suggest you try to move your party back toward sanity and reason, and the name calling will probably slow down. Believe me, I listened to insults from the right for years before I decided to join in. It seems to be the only way to communicate with them.
You know what I always find amusing, Bulldog? The rationale that people like you always seem to come up with for saying some really vile things about conservatives. Yours is that it's an attempt by you to "communicate" with them? Really? I mean
REALLY?
My problem with liberals isn't that they are lazy, smoke dope, are child molesters or want to turn everyone gay! My problem with liberals is their naive policies that are rooted in theories brought forth from the cloistered womb of academia...policies that quite simply don't work in the real world.
What I see happening time and time again is that when "progressives" get a chance to implement their theories...it turns into a total cluster ****...at which point your response predictably becomes that it
SHOULD have worked and didn't only because evil conservatives didn't support it as they should have! It's at that point that you become anything but "sensitive", Bulldog! It's at that point where you become downright nasty.
