Sen. John Kerry: 'Teabaggers' are 'revved up'
Washington Exainer ^ | 1/18/10 | Charlie Spiering

I'm amazed at how many Democratic politicians are using the word 'teabag' to fire up their constituents. Chuck Schumer proudly called Republican candidate Scott Brown a "far-right teabagger" earlier in the race, and now it appears Sen. Kerry is following suit.

"We also see how revved up the tea baggers are at the thought of hijacking health care reform and every chance we have at making progress in Washington." warned Kerry this morning.

That beats my idea.

Not only a disgusting term, but it’s totally accurate 1-word assessment of the governing style of liberal socialists.

A gay slur and nobody in the media even raises an eyebrow.

A VULGAR gay slur, meant to be disgusting, used constantly by the party that pushes for the normalization of a queer nation, and nobody in the MSM even raises an eyebrow!

John Kerry needs to consult with Anderson Cooper about this.

I don’t understand why folks are equating the use of the word teabagging with some sort of gay agenda. It’s offensive for the dems to be calling the tea party folks teabaggers but I don’t understand why we’re all bringing gay politics into it. I just looked it up and it’s a sex act with, shall we say, no gender boundaries for the person acting as the...um...water?...shall we say.

“I don’t understand why folks are equating the use of the word teabagging with some sort of gay agenda.”

When the term was explained to me, it was that the term was popularized by the gay community. Even in my wildest days as a heterosexual, surrounded by the worst language, I never heard the term.
