33. I think it was a loony looking old lady wearing teabags on her hat

who said she was "teabagging for jesus," wasn't it? I mean, I'm not making this up, right? You have to understand, they called themselves teabaggers -- and proudly, too! If Liberals and Progressives all agreed to call themselves, oh, say, "Monkey Butts" it would be completely appropriate for the RW to use that term against us. (Of course, Liberals and Progressives are not monkey butts. Neither are Teabaggers.)(Well, OK, Liberals and Progressives, for sure aren't. Teabaggers . . .I'm not so sure.)
