You're being very prudish about 'tea bagger". Most of us didn't know and didn't care about gay usage of the term. It obviously fit well describing a Tea Party member (Tea Party, ergo Tea Bagger) without regard to the esoteric and disgusting gay definition..

Because of the stink a few politically correct types made, most of us have tried to stop using it. If it slips out occasionally and you can't put aside it's previous gay definition, that's your problem. Most of us couldn't care less.

pdowd,

I apologize for bringing it up on a public forum, but there was no other way.

This is something that's been bugging me for a couple of years. When the filthiest sort of name calling begins to come into general parlance as something that's supposed to be FUNNY, it bugs the heck out of me.

I don't think "tea bagger" is funny, and name-calling is certainly not witty. I think that the term's wide spread usage is primarily due to mind-numbing levels of IGNORANCE on the part of the sheep who use it. They honestly don't even know what they're saying.
