Has anyone else noticed that more and more people are dropping the "T-bomb" lately? Yes, I'm talking about the words 'teabagger' and 'teabaggers'. I'm seeing interviews with national and government officials using the T-bomb (full well knowing the pornographic definition) on cable and in the media, as well as so-called 'celebrities' using these disgusting word/s to disparage a whole block of American citizens who have been exercising their Constitutional First Amendment rights to free speech and peaceful assembly in their affiliations with the TEA Party movement.
Since the fictional N-Word 'controversy' continues to be a liberal meme across the nation and the internet, we conservatives need to put together a video/audio resource with ALL the instances that liberals (GOVERNMENT officials starting with Obama on down, MSM anchors, etc.) have called TEA party attenders "teabagger" and/or "teabaggers" and put that video montage on YouTube for all the world (and American voters) to see.
Here's the definition of the N-word from dictionary.com (censored by me):
n*****
polite form "N-word"
Usage note
The term (N-word) is now probably the most offensive word in English. Its degree of offensiveness has increased markedly in recent years, although it has been used in a derogatory manner since at least the Revolutionary War. Definitions 1a, 1b, and 2 represent meanings that are deeply disparaging and are used when the speaker deliberately wishes to cause great offense. Definition 1a, however, is sometimes used among African-Americans in a neutral or familiar way. Definition 3 is not normally considered disparagingas in The Irish are the (N-words) of Europe from Roddy Doyle's The Commitmentsbut the other uses are considered contemptuous and hostile.
noun
1.
Slang: Extremely Disparaging and Offensive.
a.
a black person.
b.
a member of any dark-skinned people.
2.
Slang: Extremely Disparaging and Offensive. a person of any race or origin regarded as contemptible, inferior, ignorant, etc.
3.
a victim of prejudice similar to that suffered by blacks; a person who is economically, politically, or socially disenfranchised.
Origin:
164050; < F nègre < Sp negro black
I propose that the following definition be used for the words 'teabagger/teabaggers' now, especially since they are becoming more and more commonly used by national/local government officials concerning various constituents in their districts, or others' districts, and is becoming more and more widespread among those in the mainstream media, as well as among various "Hollywood" type celebrities:
teabagger/teabaggers (pl.)
polite form "T-word", "T-bomb"
Usage note
The term teabagger is now probably the most offensive word in English in current American politics. Its degree of offensiveness has increased markedly in recent months. It's source is commonly attributed to CNN's Anderson Cooper in regards to early TEA party rallies in early 2009. The word is pornographic in nature, involving the slang term for a particularly offensive and graphic male homosexual act. Definitions 1a and 2 represent meanings that are deeply disparaging and are used when the speaker deliberately wishes to cause great offense. Uses of the words 'teabagger' and 'teabaggers' are considered contemptuous and hostile.
noun
1.
Slang: EXTREMELY Disparaging and Offensive, especially when used exclusively in reference to patriotic American citizen/s from all walks of life, of all different political parties affiliations, skin colors, creeds, and religions who attend periodic national or local, peaceful, non-violent "TEA" (Taxed Enough Already") 'parties' (rallies) which support anti-BIG government/anti-EXCESSIVE taxation issues, among other conservative issues.
a.
a conservative person/s who affiliates with the TEA Party movement.
2.
Slang: Extremely Disparaging and Offensive. a person/s of any race or origin who is affiliated with the TEA Party movement regarded as contemptible, inferior, ignorant, etc.
3.
a victim/s of prejudice similar to that suffered by blacks; a person who is economically, politically, or socially (affiliated with the TEA Party movement) disenfranchised.
Listen. I’ve taken my children to March for Life rallies.
And yes, they’ve heard the insults and experienced this kind of hatred from leftists.
But I realized that I was voluntarily taking my kids into the harshest battles we fight in our our culture wars.
You did the same thing. Were you surprized? Did you not expect Satan to be there with his demons in the flesh?
Either leave the kids home as you venture into battle, or know that this will open their eyes (maybe sooner than you wish) to the evils of liberals.
Government
How about we just 'correct' the erroneous definition.
Here is the best definition I can put together, based on what the MSM and the Democratic Party leaders SAY they MEAN when they say it.
TEABAGGER: Straight, White, Americans who attend TEA PARTY protests.
On the other hand, we have the definition of
LIBERAL: Someone who gets on their knees in front of their massa and let's him jam something down their throat, which they then insist they really liked.
Consider yourself Blessed.
“The most offensive word in America today is: Obama”
I would add “Pockeestahn” and “Corpse-man” to the offensive word list.
