	BlackChampagne -- no longer new; improvement also in question.: Tea Bagging! Tuesday, April 14, 2009 Tea Bagging! This MSNBC piece brought, as they say, the lulz. I have no idea who the news guy doing it is, but bonus points for him keeping a straight face throughout, what with the constant mentions of "tea bagging" and "Dick Arm(e)y" and so on. Even the title illustration is great, with the dual tea bags going in for the dunk, with one (naturally) hanging a bit lower than the other. It also provides a very concise description of the fundamental absurdity of the whole tea-bagging movement. Vast majority of tea baggers are getting tax cuts this year to less than they paid under Bush. Marginal tax rates for the wealthiest Americans are shooting up to... 10% lower than it was under Reagan. Taxation with representation. Etc. And it's very funny, in a juvenile, talking dirty sort of fashion. Naturally, it's essential that you know what "tea bagging" is slang for, but I think we're all sex slang aware adults here, eh? (The real question is, do some of the self proclaimed tea baggers not know? I've been half giggling for weeks as this fringe movement has been astroturfed by the right wing media and the term "tea baggers" keeps being thrown around. After all, the inclusion of "bag" is not essential. Tea didn't come in neat, disposable bags once upon a time, when the colonists so legendarily tossed crates of it into Boston Harbor.) Labels: humor, politics Posted by: Flux # 5:57 PM Comments: I find myself struggling to figure out which part of this tea party thing that piece got right. Hell, I haven't even heard the word tea bag until just now, and am keyed into the folks who have been talking about it. It's obviously a parody piece (and I've always been a fan of crude humor, so kudos to them on the volumes of word play), but most good comedians place at least a kernel of truth in their rantings, biased though they may be. #: 3:29 PM posted by Anonymous That clip is from the show Countdown. It's normally hosted by another guy, but that guy is filling in. That channel has been constantly making fun of the teabagging over the last few weeks, much to Fox News' dismay. It's hilarious to see Bill-O whining about how they aren't taking the protesters seriously, in typical hypocritacal, Bush-amnesia fashion. If you like that clip, you should watch that show, as well as the Racheal Maddow show. They both have the tongue-in-cheek vibe of the Daily Show, and they constantly get under the skin of douchebags like Hannity, so I've been sold for a while. #: 6:15 AM posted by Josh Post a Comment << Home Archives May 2005 June 2005 July 2005 August 2005 September 2005 October 2005 November 2005 December 2005 January 2006 February 2006 March 2006 April 2006 May 2006 June 2006 July 2006 August 2006 September 2006 October 2006 November 2006 December 2006 January 2007 February 2007 March 2007 April 2007 May 2007 June 2007 July 2007 August 2007 September 2007 October 2007 November 2007 December 2007 January 2008 February 2008 March 2008 April 2008 May 2008 June 2008 July 2008 August 2008 September 2008 October 2008 November 2008 December 2008 January 2009 February 2009 March 2009 April 2009 May 2009 June 2009 July 2009 August 2009 September 2009 October 2009 November 2012
