People who use the term “teabagger” are mostly FISTERS. Fister as in the clenched communist fist or the 0bama fist bump. No sexual innuendo intended.

This tack will only appeal to fellow Commies.

It will piss everybody else off.

Keep it up, dummies.

So, dues paid into a federal employees union by definition come from the taxpayers. We are thus funding these ads. Wonderful..

The Big Gov’ment Teet is some kind of sweet these days as the average income is over 70K per year, exceeding the private sector by far.

With dues paid to this union coming from federal income paid through taxes, wouldn’t this be illegal for this union to run political adds? Just asking...

We’ve got to pass a law, no unionized government employees, ever!

Exactly. The last thing Joe Average wants to see is the overpaid, overpensioned, oversized government employee sector thumbing its nose at the rest of us.

Better to be the “Tea Bagger” than the “Tea Baggee”. Libs shouldn’t talk with their mouths full.

That’s one thing I like about Mitch Daniels in Indiana.
His first action as Gov was de-certifying the UAW as representative of state employees.

Truly stupid ad. Will only be effective with totally stupid people.

Big waste of time and money.

There is a big ‘protest’ from code pink and the usual suspect against Paladino today for his remarks about not brainwashing kids with gay agenda at school

I am thinking about showing up with them with a sign saying “HOMO’s for CUOMO”

What do you think?

OMG I think that WILL Make a good post later when we got photos

You are correct and your post gave me an idea: What if we turn this phrase and all of it’s juvenile innuendo on these supporters of the “real tea-baggers”.

It might not fly with some people but if we start a “Tea-Bag the incumbents” rallying cry, I wonder how the lefties will respond.

That’s a poorly done ad, visual and audio. They spent maybe $40 on production.
