Why would you get offended at the term tea bagger, when you dress like this and wave these signs? I seriously want to know.

As I stated in another thread, some people weren't up to speed with sexual maneuvers listed at urbandictionary.com . Once explained, most people find it quite offensive and stop using it.

I find it interesting that some tea baggers wear the bag down from the hat and some with the label down. Which is proper?

If tea baggers start stapling the tea bags to their own heads, I have to admit that would show true patriotism.

So you or they get to speak for everyone?

Why can I not be offended simply because someone else holds that sign? Do I not have my own voice, opinions and thoughts? Personally I hope people keep calling us that because its only going to back fire and help us in the long run

I got to agree I seriously doubt those holding those signs even know what it means
