Teabaggers upset at being called "Teabaggers"
Sometimes, visiting Freeperville can be so amusing.



Barack Hussein Obama II, used a crude gay-baiting sexual slur to denigrate Tea Party patriots in a talk with House Democrats yesterday on Capitol Hill, reported the New York Times:

According to Representative Earl Blumenauer of Oregon, who supports the health care bill, the president asked, “Does anybody think that the teabag, anti-government people are going to support them if they bring down health care? All it will do is confuse and dispirit” Democratic voters “and it will encourage the extremists.”
The word 'teabag' is used to describe a sexual practice popular in the homosexual community. Earlier this year as the anti-big government protest movement exploded across the country, liberals in the media first started calling conservative and libertarian protesters organizing under the Tea Party banner, "teabaggers," in a juvenile effort to gay-bait the protesters. Democrats, including now the president of the United States, have also used the slur.
The gay-baiting slur was used with gusto on MSNBC in April by anchors David Shuster and rachel Maddow. Newsbusters quoted Shuster
Newsbusters also reported the term was used 51 times in one segment on the Rachel Maddow show.
CNN's Anderson Cooper piled on the same week with his own gay-baiting 'teabagging' slurs.

So to Obama, we are the ‘extremists’, but we are not to call the Fort Hood Islamist barbarian an extremist terrorist...gotcha.

Democrats use filthy street language so often that they don’t even realize how crude and disgusting they are. It’s like living in a swamp to have to listen to them talk. They pollute music, awards shows, talk shows, films and even the White House now.

Excuse me Mr. President. DO NOT TREAD ON ME!
I do not participate in the sexual activities your constituents do. Please refrain from insulting my fellow Patriots. You go to far on all fronts and we will kick your bony arse out of office come November 2012. We will kick your fellow thieves out of Congress come November 2010. We will undo ALL the damage you have inflicted upon this country. We are just gearing up for you and your Black Panthers, ACORN activists and Environmental Terrorists who are the bane of our society. We will NOT BE Tread uoon and you will hear our battle cry come election day

Nobody can accuse Obama and his minions of being classy. The left have no class, taste or decorum.
Wait til he leaves office to see what kind of mess this crew leaves behind. I bet there will be a lot of Bio Hazard bags being bought.

I respectfully dsagree with your statement.
I feel that if a bucket of decaying canine feces had been sworn in as president last February the nation would be in much better shape than it is now. Even decaying feline feces would be an improvement.

I love how the freepers say Obama has no class and then make comments like the above.

I also don't think we can dismiss these nuts because they only represent a small percentage of the populace. Their views get a lot of play in the mainstream media, and as we've seen all too often, it only takes one man with a gun to wreak havoc. These people don't just disagree with the President and have no respect for Democracy, they HATE the current situation, and they HAVE guns.

And then they backed away from that moniker when they discovered why everyone else was giggling at them.

17. ROFL! The teabaggers chose that term, themselves. Rachel kept urging them to check
urban dictionary. Now, they finally figure out what it means and decide we are at fault by using their chosen term.

30. Who in the
HELL do you sick ass republicans think you are talking to or about. Well let me be one of the ones who put it to your ass by name suckers. First, chickadee-pollute you worried about that, did you for get bird brain that republicans do not believe in global warming or climate change which are in some cases have been attributed to man's pollution. But i bet if you shut the f__k up that would cut down on some atmospheric pollution. Second,chgogal- You gone kick who's bony ass out of office? You can suck out my ass with a straw after an exlax. After what we went through with that piece of shit Dubya it will be a cold day in hell before we let a republican get in office unless its to sit In the corner of the principals office for a time out. That is what the American people said on November 4,2008.Time out for Republicons. Third,noobrep-Look like that dog shit found a nice place to be poop in, The White House. You still in the outhouse? Forth, psalm 144- hypocrite don't try and hide behind religion and bible scriptures to show the contention in your heart. we see it as if the sun was shining, you want god to rise up do you. Everytime i hear one of you punks mention the Constitution you think civilized Americans don't know what you mean. Slavery,annihilation of the Native American,and indentured Asian servants were in full effect when it was written. What would you say if some of us said ok we will be Nat Turner. Check out psalm 149 punk
