Teabaggers Part Deux (Lib Seattle Colunist)

Seattle PI ^ | 4/6/10 | Barbara Sehr

This column is a little inflammatory...

Last week, in this space, I appear to have awakened a movement larger than the one I achieved prior to my last colonoscopy. Who could have thought that government resentful "teabaggers" existed here in the rain forests of the Puget Sound?

After my recent personal encounter with these activists in the other Washington, I imagined that they were simply part of the extensive production capability of FOX News. Who would have thunk that they are very much alive and well and reading blogs here at Seattlepi.com?

It would appear at first glance that my experiences with the East Coast tribes of the Tea Party movement did not achieve much sympathy with the local chapters. Perhaps if I possessed the good looks and moneyed style of Sarah Palin I might have been greeted as a liberator and party functionary. Apparently, my "good looks" do not meet the standards of some of you. In some of the now-deleted comments on last week's installment, readers made it quite clear that my looks were not even close to the standards of Flip Wilson's "Geraldine" or even Milton Berle.

There’s a spelling error on your headline.

From the content of her “piece”, it probably should be “colon-ist”.

[massgopguy]

Don't condemn her so fast everyone. You may not know this about her bonafides. She's a “comedienne”!

[DManA]

Pardon, I didn’t actually read your post. Nasty but completely accurate.

[Noumenon]

Talk about ‘movements’ - another smug lib turd makes a splash.

[cooperj]

seriously, why give this pathetic website any more hits?
if the mainstream media go out of their way to “teabag” the movement while spreading lies about teapartiers, why would we expect any integrity from some leftist fringe blog?

man i just wasted time typing this response—almost as much time as i spent reading her drivel.

[RichInOC]

I call BS. Judging from the excerpt, had Barbara had a movement that large before her colonoscopy, she would have died from brain loss.

[OCCASparky]

So are Rosie O’Fat, Joy Be-hag, Sarah Bernhard, and Kathy Griffin. Yet I’ve never heard one of them say anything remotely funny. Ever.

[Loud Mime]

A comedienne? Like Don Rickles?

All I read was ridicule; nothing like Stephen Wright, Johnny Carson or Mel Brooks. Those are comedians.

[Da Coyote]

This represents typical lib logic (or lack thereof).
Presenting a counter argument is so damned easy.

Oh, and lady, don’t tell us about the Obamas coming out of your Obama-hole. Such stuff is gross.

Clearing up the "Teabagger" confusion for the media...

[digger48]

How lady like.

I don't think "lady-like" has EVER been used to describe this .....thing.

[SmokingJoe]

Really. About as ladylike as what passes through that particular part of the anatomy

Chortle!

Land of good Lenin loving Communists.

[garyhope]

I did and I wish I had read your comment first.

Now I’m sitting down and drinking a large vodka (straight) trying to recover from the sight.

[Lazamataz]

I'd hit it.

(the same Lenin statue in drag)

[max americana]

and people wonder why the Seattle PI became a web only “newspaper”. They are more left..extremely looney lib left to the Seattle Times, whose editors were caught jumping for joy when Karl Rove resigned.

[Maceman]

While describing tea partiers as male genitalia sucking homosexual perverts.

I don't know where people get the idea that this is exclusively a homosexual practice. I guess some people just need to get out more.

[kevkrom]

I'd hit it.

Hopefully with something that has pretty good reach.
