the tea bag is used in reference to the original Boston tea party action. I.E, throwing tea bags into the Boston harbor as a symbol to King George that America didn't like the taxes he was putting on them. Those that threw the tea bags can be called tea baggers. Many words have several meanings. If you think tea baggers has any other meaning when used by the new movement in protest to the current situation, that is your problem.
The people in the pics are comparing the President of the United States with a man who killed millions of people in probably the single worst tragedy of the last century. They are accusing the POTUS of wanting to enslave white people. They are using fear and hate to potentially incite violence against our democratically elected President.
I'm poking fun at them because they are ludicrous, an actual threat, and tried to throw a truckload of teabags into the Potomac river.
Is there any harm if thousands of people get together in the park and wear testicles on their face? No.
Is there any harm if our President is a fascist dictator who wants to kill or enslave millions of people. Yes.
It's a matter of scope and scale.
you understood what the term teabagger meant and chose to use it.
so philosophically you knew it was an insult and you continue to use it.
I certainly hope you were as outraged when bush was being called Hitler

What have tea party members done to incite violence against Obama? Having peaceful protest incites violence? Really
Did you say the samething about the many many democrats that did and still do compare Bush to Hitler? I can provide pictures of democrats actually holding signs calling for the death or Bush or to kill Bush. Show me the tea party members sign that says we need to kill Obama?
You have been givin those answers you just choose to ignore them
Not at all...i get it over the long run. I get what you're "about"...but if one of you were in power on January 20, 2009, what exactly would have happened to correct a crisis that was spiraling out of control on a minute by minute basis?
Is the answer, tax breaks for the rich? (which also have to be paid for)....or what? I just don't see that as a valid game plan faced with what we were facing.

the meaning comes with sexual connotation and those that choose to use it are not using it to be polite. So if you wish to back such a meaning then that is your problem with respecting people.
Show me anywhere in a history book where the Boston tea party members were ever called teabaggers.

Now please find the signs that tea party members are holding that incites violence to the President at the time Bush that compares to the ones I posted above please
And that is just the icing on the cake to the ones that can be found about Bush
You admit that you hate politics, but you are quick to boil down a movement to a single sentence, and call people that CARE about this country by getting involved, ignorant.
You might want to educate yourself on the issues, and get more involved.
Oh and I did NOT say that "people that care about this country by getting involved, ignorant". Read my post.

That was in the answer you got like I said you wish to ignore it. Who said tax breaks for the rich. But how many jobs have you gotten from a poor man?
How many jobs are you getting now that the business are leaving to go over seas because the taxes arent as high so the cost of running that company isnt as high plus labor is cheaper
So like I said you've gotten the answers you just wish to ignore them because they arent the answer you wanted.
