Teabaggers Part Deux (Lib Seattle Colunist)
Seattle PI ^ | 4/6/10 | Barbara Sehr

Posted on 04/08/2010 9:27:34 AM PDT by illiac

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.

The only truthfulness I could glean from the whole article was she is upset that people dont find her pretty enough. The rest was just a pretense of being political commentary.

Based on her obvious lack of vision, I’d say it’s her head that’s stuck up there...

Never was a newspaper more aptly named: it really is post intelligence.

And while we’re at it, why don’t conservatives come up with some nasty smutty derogatory name for liberas/progressives? Well, actually, I do know why. It’s because conservatives, for the most part, have better manners than to call people they disagree with a nasty name. But liberals love to swear and use filty language: it helps to show everyone how liberal they are with the english language.

Wow. Maybe if you could better write the opinions of you, it would approve more people of you.

With a stick? or a brick?

Have you ever seen a liberal react when you call one a Socialist?

Credit goes to Michelle Malkin for that term, by the way. I was very taken with it myself.

I got that idea when Anderson Cooper and Wolf Blitzer were having a hearty laugh at the “teabagger” joke. Sorry I don’t get out enough for ya.
