1. Rachel is a smartie-pants... me luv me some Rachel

too funny

[targetpractice]

2. Best quote...

"Who wouldn't want to teabag John McCain?"

[PDJane]

3. Rachel blushes very prettily.........

What a hoot! Anna Marie Cox is the perfect foil.....

[bjobotts]

4. Cox added nothing but stupidity and confusion to this nonsense.

[bjobotts]

5. First Maddow-get it straight. They want a revolution but are causing a civil war

[bjobotts]

6. It began with Santeli who only wants wall street bailed out and lower taxes on the very wealthy

[bjobotts]

8. "tea bagging" means not raising taxes on the wealthiest of Americans

[bjobotts]

9. The rate goes up on each dollar 'over' $250k...not the first $250k

[bjobotts]

10. Tea bagging means protecting the holdings of the oligarchs by getting republicans elected again

[bjobotts]

11. It means blaming the Obama government for the huge spending that is now necessary to get our economy

going again

[bjobotts]

12. Rolling back the Reagan tax cuts on the 0.02% of Americans at the top will...

[bjobotts]

14. will provide the government with enough funds to rebuild our neglected infrastructure

[bjobotts]

15. provide free higher Ed, national healthcare, switching to alternative energy

[bjobotts]

17. stabilizing the economy and rebuilding the middle class. All that used to be before the tax cuts on

the wealthy.

Tea baggers are being manipulated to support those who caused our current disaster but who want to blame the government for it all.

[bjobotts]

18. Tea baggers are being manipulated by those who caused our current disaster

[bjobotts]

20. but who want to balme the government and Obama for all of it.

[bjobotts]

21. Only the weathiest of Americans will see a tax increase but it won't prevent them from getting riche

[bjobotts]

22. It's a redistribution of "taxes", not wealth but it will keep the poor from getting poorer

[bjobotts]

23. The people calling for the tea parties are all millionaires or insane.

[Turborama]

24. Do you know what the other definition of the verb "to teabag" is?

[LynnTheDem]

38. "Teabagging"; to suck a man's balls as he "dips" em.

Rightwingnuts = TEABAGGERS. :rofl:


The FUNNIEST thing is some day, sooner or later, rightwingnuts will discover what TEABAGGING means!

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!

[truth2power]

7. Somebody please tell me why they're not allowed

to talk about "fiscal teabags" as Rachel said.


This whole thing is a hoot! :rofl: I admit I had to check WikiPedia to get the joke.

[earcandle]

13. She does a great show more times than not. I enjoy her more than not. This was fun.

[aquart]

16. "I just heard from Standards: we're not allowed to say 'fiscal teabagging.'"

I just wanna know how many other people had to google 'teabagging' to find out why you all are laughing?

[liberalmuse]

19. I think I busted a gut.

That was fucking hilarious!

[targetpractice]

25. That segment reminds me of Arrested Development....

Particularly this...

Or, this...

[Cowpunk]

26. Reminded me of a lot of SNL sketches

Keep repeating the same joke until no one thinks it's funny anymore.

[targetpractice]

27. Agreed... Schweddy Balls, Sofa King, Cork Soaking, etc...

Very punny stuff.. I suppose different strokes for different folks.

[Wetzelbill]

29. I didn't even look at the links you provided

But since the inception of the Teabag Movement, one man has come to mind and that's the great AnalRapist, Dr. Tobias Funke.

[Wetzelbill]

28. Leave it up to Cox to only be interested in teabagging nt

[slay]

30. Here's another link to the same clip:

*on edit - i was posting this link cause i was unsure about the previous youtube page but that has since been cleared up for me - here's the clip at any rate:

31. VOTERSTHINGKdotORG uploaded some of the best anti-McCain/Palin vids during the election

And they are still one of the best sources of Pro-Dem anti-GOP vids on YouTube, IMO.

There are some very funny comments being posted on the original upload of this vid on YouTube, too.


BTW, have you been to http://earth2obama.org/ yet?

[slay]

32. Ah yeah

I remember - it just looked a bit iffy some of the comments from the original poster's youtube comments whether there was some anti-obama agenda being pushed so I figured I'd just provide another link. Thanks for clearing it up - I'll edit my previous post if still possible. :hi: Oh and yeah I have been to earth2obama.org but haven't had much time to check it out in depth - yet.

33. The REAL POWERS behind the teabagging parties

What we discovered is that Santelli’s “rant” was not at all spontaneous as his alleged fans claim, but rather it was a carefully-planned trigger for the anti-Obama campaign. In PR terms, his February 19th call for a “Chicago Tea Party” was the launch event of a carefully organized and sophisticated PR campaign, one in which Santelli served as a frontman, using the CNBC airwaves for publicity, for the some of the craziest and sleaziest rightwing oligarch clans this country has ever produced. Namely, the Koch family, the multibilllionaire owners of the largest private corporation in America, and funders of scores of rightwing thinktanks and advocacy groups, from the Cato Institute and Reason Magazine to FreedomWorks. The scion of the Koch family, Fred Koch, was a co-founder of the notorious extremist-rightwing John Birch Society.”

34. "All this non-consensual conservative activist teabagging..."

What a great line!:rofl:

[Epiphany4z]

35. oh..bahhh hhaaa haa haaa haaa haaa haaa

They are to funny....well done!!!!

[Froward69]

36. republicans can suck my balls anytime...

I like it. politely calling it "tea bagging" is just too damn funny.

[Unca Jim]

37. AH, our turn!

When the "Barack the Magic Negro" song came out it gave the wingers a chance to say "negro" a lot, which they seemed to enjoy.

Now we progs get to talk about "teabagging" for weeks in connection to those same wingers! Karmic symmetry.


And seriously, who doesn't want to talk about the fiscal teabagging we've all been taking lately. :)
