Spade, your medical qualifications just keep going higher and higher. With your remark:

"Take a purgative and grow up!"

you have earned the degree of Internist.

Careful, though! Cliffy might get jelous and kick you off his team!

This post is directed to Ron in Regina or any or all the moderators who monitor this thread:

Let me be the first to apologize for straying off the topic. I am sure I will be only one to do so.

What I'd like to know is where were all these "patriots" when Bush and Cheney were gutting the Constitution and letting the nation go to hell just to make a few bucks for themselves and their buddies.

Obamas' Presidentcy has brought a lot of closet racists into the open.

There are many reasons not to like Barney Franks, and being openly gay is not one of them. You seem to think that just because a person is Gay, Black Yellow or Red that when they are in politics they need some sort of special coddling because of that. You just have to understand that some of us just don't like them because of their stands on certain things, to Left or to Right. For example Barney Franks was one of the reasons that Fannie Mae and our economy tanked. There are countless reasons for disliking him, more important than his life style. (want another, he was involved with a prostitution ring) I do not like the man and what political positions he represents.

Frank tells of his despair during ’89 sex scandal - The Boston Globe





It is your right to like or dislike anybody you want. But when the teabaggers shout epithets like 'nigg*r' or 'fagg*t', they are clearly stepping over the line. That is what we are discussing here, not your right to like or dislike somebody.

....and here you all are yet again following SJP around like lost little puppy dogs.

They are just pining for their daily fix of SJP, Avro. And who can blame them?

Ah. So.

Even in defeat, we will claim victory.

The defeat is in your mind only. I stay with what I said before. Teabaggers is the short for tea party supporters in this context, nothing more. If you somehow want to twist that as your victory and my defeat (which is totally incomprehensible to me), be my guest.

But you don't know what definition I use for 'defeat'.

I'm perfectly capable of changing the definition of words, too.

"I am not missing any point, TenPenny. I use the term 'tea bagger' strictly as a short form of 'tea party supporters' and nothing else. I couldn't care less how others take it"

That exactly the same as saying that "Ni66er" is just short for African-American or "fa66ot" is short for homosexual.

The only difference is that in spite of all the banshees here I NEVER said that.

I could not care less how others take it.

Are you seriously trying to tell us that half or close to half of the "tea" protesters are democrats or liberal by that definition?

If not, where were these "tea" protesters when Bush waged his illegal war in Iraq, stomped on the constitution and ran up the debt and deficit?

Just curious.

Quite so. Where were the teabaggers when Bush introduced his huge stimulus package? All the Republicans enthusiastically supported it. There was not a pip out of teabaggers. Where were the teabaggers when Bush and Republicans were running deficits in excess of 550 billion $? Again, not a pip out of them.

If teabaggers are motivated by too much government intrusions into their lives, where were they when Republicans were intruding into their lives in a big way? The answer is, they were in Washington influencing the policies.

That is why I don’t buy this nonsense that they are motivated by ‘dictatorship of the government’. When Republicans were in power there was nothing but ‘dictatorship of government’. Republicans in creased government spending big time, more than what Clinton did, they racked up huge deficits.

Where were the teabaggers then, with their disgust of too much government? They were influencing, directing the policy in Washington at that time.

Teabaggers are just the extreme faction of the Republican Party, I seriously doubt they are motivated by government intrusion into their lives. They did not mind Republican intrusion into their life one bit, there was not a pip out of them. They only object to democratic intrusion into their lives.

And when decent and normal people are besmirched by being called "tea baggers" - a depraved homosexual activity - now that is REALLY stepping over the line.

And that is what we are discussing here. Or should it be titled: "The usual liberal hypocrisy"?

Give me a break, it's nowhere along the same level as the other terms you mentioned. Tea-Baggers may be a derogatory term but it certainly doest not share the type of history n*gger or f*ggot does.

Tea bagging is a sexual act which is used by some on the left/mainstream to describe the Tea Party Movement whereas the other two are insults aimed at specific peoples, ie gays & blacks, if you can't see the difference you really are daft. No ambiguity there, Jacko.

Again, you are changing the subject. You are trying to talk about everything except the subject of the thread, the racist and homophobic behavior of the teabaggers.

I would say ..Obama/Dems have no real opposition at all ..T party holds no threat at all...Besides the sloppy slurs ..Bunch of right wing hacks tryin to stir up support ,yet failing miserably ....
.......And if the G.O.P is relying on guys like John Boehner to lead them forward into the future..They might as well be Dead...

It's all Nothin but a big joke ..A huge game of B.S./ political hype ..All in a futile attempt to try to stir up some attention from the disengaged public.

Obama is the best thing that happened to The U.S in years ..And from what I can see ..For many more to come..

Peace

That is exactly the point David Frum, the Republican activist made. He thought that passing of the health care reform was a huge defeat for Republicans. He is not in politics any more and is free to speak his mind.

And he puts the blame on the tea party, and the fact that Republicans were swayed by the tea party supporters.

Teabagger are products of the Rush Limbaugh and Glen Beck neo-con advocacy. They have little to do with real conservatism, hence the almost complete submergence of the issue of abortion funding, a key social conservative platform.. to the LIBERTARIAN nonsense of 'socialism' and 'attacks on freedom'.

The only entities whose freedom is really infringed by those they target, supporters national and institutional regulation and 'fair trade' , is the Global Investment Organism, which funds neoconservative 'talk radio' and which works to the detriment of nations and workers for their own enrichment.

Basicly you're dealing with a disgruntled and highly gullible rump element here, that probably draws in old Klan and Joe McCarthy types.
