Tomorrow, a lot of the tighty righties are going to get together to tea-bag Obama to celebrate the fact that the top 5% saw its share of national income grow from 15 to 21 percent between 1970-2006 as their effective income tax rate declined from 17.4% to 16.0%. So they're going to have a teabagging party. Talk about kinky. Ugh. These dudes are sick! And I thought the allegations in the Jeri Ryan divorce were kinky...
Hopefully the Secret Service is on top of this. I doubt President Obama is going to lower his pants and undies for them anyhow. He seems far too dignified for that sort of thing. A straight missionary position guy, if ya know what I mean.
Badtux the Buggery Penguin
Hopefully they'll teabag each other....that may keep them occupied for awhile, and it should turn many of them against the Rethugs and F** Nuz.
ReplyDeletethe whole teabagging this- does the GOP have a clue what that means ? are they that stupid ? oh why do I even ask...they are so lacking in cerebral cells....
ReplyDeletewow....you have to wonder what they will come up with next....( Joe the Plumber was bad enuf...and it has been down hill ever since..)
Dude, I don't care what the Prez does with his wife in private. Now the whole GOP tea-bagging thing has gotten to be a big joke, just like the GOP. Heh.
ReplyDeleteSee, this is what Fundamentalism breeds: No Irony.Lord, I miss Bill Hicks.
ReplyDeleteSnarky jokes aside, this will be an interesting "tea"st of the reich wing's ability to bring people into the streets (or wherever the hell they're gathering.) From what I surmise, Fuxers like Glenn Beck and reichwing radio have been pushing the hell out of this. (Thank penguinness I'm not in a position to listen to that shite.) Then there's the backing of the true corporate organisers of the event.
ReplyDeleteSo how strong is their Astroturf? Can they get thousands to congregate? Will it be in the mere hundreds, or will there be a couple dozen middle-aged white people standing around saying "What are we supposed to do next? I never been to a protest because that's for dirty goddam hippies. Should we light this trash bin on fire or hijack a bus to ram through police lines? Rush, tell us what to do!"
It will be interesting to see if there's a cadre of paid professionals to make things flow at these events -- give speeches, lead chants, etc. With the amount of corporate backing that there's been so far, I'd expect they wouldn't want to let it flop visibly. OTOH, they might be doing the first big one in such a way that they let it happen naturally, to gauge support. I'll be curious to see if future tea-bags are promoted with free food and other enticements.
I'll also be curious to see how it's covered in the MSM. I can already guess how Fux et. al. on the reich will portray it. Mate, this is fascinating to watch the factionalising and slow dissolution of the United States from a safe distance. Are you going to go all Yugoslavian on our asses?
