I was all set to write about how the media's mockery of the "Tea Party Movement," re-dubbed "Tea-bagging" by the sexual-slang-ignorant Griff Jenkins, is threatening to turn the sac-obsessed revolutionaries into sympathetic figures. I mean, we get it. Tea-bagging has 2 meanings. Actually, it really only has one.
But then, Political Machine trollbuster Cube sent me this video, which is too good to pass up. I'll scold my fellows tomorrow. Today, we feast on tea-baggy awesomeness. The fun really starts at about the 3:30 mark.
I guess the guy did't get the memo, or he's also accusingJoe the Plumber of being in on the brainwashing scam. Remember this?
The left, meanwhile, is having a field day cataloging all of the crazy crap that goes down at these rallies, and exposing the myth that these are organic, grassroots events.
I was starting to think this was going to backfire on the left, but I'm not so sure now. Goofy is goofy. I guess I should be glad the media ignored Code Pink for the last 8 years.
In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around.
