I doubt the media came up with signs like "tea bag the liberals" or "tea bag Obama". They sort of named themselves didn't they.

Be careful with the cartoons....they're now going after Captain America. http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/...-america-comic/

Slaughter's NF office reports a brick throwing incident...baggers immediately cry hoax. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2474947/posts

Allow me the privilege of putting this in some context: I was downtown this afternoon soaking up some NCAA hoops flavor when I came across this demonstration in front of Louise Slaughter's Buffalo office. About 20 people holding the usual signs one comes to expect at these things. I had my camera on me and snapped a couple of pictures and later posted them to my Facebook page. I captioned it "teabaggers demonstrate outside Louise Slaughter's office". A conservative friend got pissed off (his words : "Too bad Facebook doesn't have a F*** you button") and "unfriended me". Touchy these conservatives nowadays but that's not my point. I'm just curious why this term has become such a self-inflicted embarrassment around the movement? If the cons take it as such a spiteful insult in line with the n-word why then would the right wing even respond to it on a site like the Urban Dictionary...not just respond to it but embrace it with their own definitions? Just odd.

In your case it's definitely the former.

Not sure that fits the definition. Curious if the "tea partiers" (as they prefer to be called now) called themselves "baggers" first, blissfully ignorant of the connotations, or was it a snide, nasty term unfairly foisted upon them by the liberal media? And have they bought survival seeds?

I still can't believe he got all of that out of one mocking post about "survival seeds". Let's see, a guy decides to start a business trying to lasso rubes into believing today's economic crisis will evolve into a doomsday scenario and I'm the one fear mongering? He's still as confused as ever.

Factually I think you might have more in common with the good lieutenant. But the point was brought up and you have yet to respond...why the gloating over Air America if you really didn't care much about it?

Well if I can't provide food on the table for my family what good am I?

....said the hit and run wise guy trolling for minnows.... ...but only on occassion. Pot....kettle?

I know what I like! And I like Survival Seeds !

After we're done with triv we can always run across the street to the Home Depot for some "Survival Seeds." They got anything like that in Canada?

Let me pick up a back issue of Soldier of Fortune and I'll get back to you on that one.

You mean it isn't?

You do a good enough job where I think it's readily appearent what school of political thought you come from. Sort of a twist on zen fascism.

Yes I forgot, your "political beliefs".

Well Golly my opinion is now all turned around about the matter. I don't think the Survival seed company would be good capitalists if they just narrowed themselves to the Morman demographic.

Meet Survival Seed customer #1!

Ok. Here's the original website seen on the beck show. http://www.survivalseedbank.com/ Basically a doomsday scenario with far right beliefs that aren't all that different from what's shat out here by Potsie, labills, et al on a daily basis. Now you would think being educated consumers and all, that the far right whack jobs who believe this nonsense would at least have the cranium capacity to at least do a little comparison shopping. http://www.amazon.com/Keepsake-Hybrid-Toma...n/dp/B0032G6O5Y

So much for your "logical progression".

Let's keep it on the stems and seeds man as GG would say. Do you feel that absolutely nobody outside of Cat and me think this commercial is...well...a little far fuking out there? Why has every poster here talked about everything but the seeds? Could it be there were some actual takers here and all are too embarrassed to admit it?

You do of course realise he is a black woman. Just nominated for the oscar for Precious.
