With all the words and labels that are considered hate speech and slurs in today's world, why have liberals taken to the double entendre term "Teabaggers" to show their HATE of the Tea Party Movement.

Just watch the smirks and smiles as liberal commentators use the term to describe a political movement.

Even this Forum puts up with this term for now as acceptable. No asterisks on the above term. Come on liberals lets hear your rationalizations for the term in question. Get ready for the hate because here it comes.

Even our wonderful President likes to use the term describing the oral fondling of male genitalia. Thanks for the change Mr President. I guess if the Pres can use the term its not hate speech yet.

I guess its sticks and stones for the Teabaggers but libelous slander for the "you decide"

You won't get any straight answers, they'll claim that because some old folks who didn't know any better used the term that it's ok "since they labeled themselves" or some stupid BS like that. Liberals are the most hateful, evil people on the planet and I take great pride in knowing that conservatives like myself will take them down a notch in November and again in 2012.

It's wrong, it's obscene and they know it otherwise they wouldn't use the term. Anyone who denys that is full of it.

The Left is an evil bunch of cowards. They just love to slander people and use derogatory terms towards them. Actually the Left is the most childish bunch of people I've ever witnessed.

It's been pointed out many times on this forum that FOX News were the first to use the term.

Well...maybe because that's what tea party members call themselves? I've linked to an article yesterday by market watch--not exactly a what you would call a "liberal controlled media outlet". The writer there proudly endorsed the "tea baggers." Why don't you get a real issue to complain about vs. manufacturing a problem. Oh wait--then you wouldn't be a member of the tea party.

EDIT: Here's Neil Cavuto on Fox talking about the "tea baggers"

Does that make it any less wrong? You obviously know what it means, why do you continue to use the term? Are you ok with people purposely using derogatory terms towards you?

It's also anti homosexual. Ironic that the left instantly makes insults about homosexuals to people they dislike, despite homosexuals having darling status with the left.
