Not that I expect that the folks who use the term care but, I and everyone I<br>
know that was involved with the 15 April gathering find the term "teabagger"<br>
offensive in the extreme. Of course, I'm fairly certain that was the<br>
intention, a deliberate attempt by the MSM to reduce millions of concerned<br>
tax payers to the subject of a sick, ribald joke. </blockquote><div><br>Is "millions of concerned taxpayers" a synonym for "a quarter million white right-wingers?" I no longer have the Gary-to-English codebook.<br>
<br>Incidentally, on the same theme as below: it's likewise amusing for right-wingers to insist on a perverse form of political correctness the moment they're ejected from the halls of power. Sorry, Gary: until you extend the same courtesy to the members of groups you don't agree with (c.f. "Democrat party," "BHO," etc.), you'll always be a teabagger to me.<br>
