I got this email from my liberal friend of mine. Before I respond I present it to my fellow Freepers for opinions on how best to respond:
Nelda Elder posted this on the Washington Post's Facebook page. She's from Kansas, and looks to be in her mid to late 50's. She uses the term "teabagger". But do remember that NOT everyone knows this can also mean a sexual act; it's not exactly a common one. I didn't know it; I'm betting she doesn't either. It's just easier to say "Teabagger" than "TeaPartier" or whatever description they're using now:
"The Teabagger gets up at 6:00am to prepare his morning coffee.
He fills his pot full of good clean drinking water because some liberal fought for minimum water quality standards.
He takes his daily medication with his first swallow of coffee. His medications are safe to take because some liberal fought to insure their safety and work as advertised. All but $10.00 of his medications are paid for by his employers medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance, now The Teabagger gets it too.
He prepares his morning breakfast, bacon and eggs this day. The Teabagger's bacon is safe to eat because some liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.
The Teabagger takes his morning shower reaching for his shampoo; his bottle is properly labeled with every ingredient and the amount of its contents because some liberal fought for his right to know what he was putting on his body and how much it contained.
The Teabagger dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air he breathes is clean because some tree-hugging liberal fought for laws to stop industries from polluting our air.
The Teabagger begins his work day; he has a good job with excellent pay, medicals benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. The Teabagger's employer pays these standards because The Teabagger's employer doesn't want his employees to call the union.
If The Teabagger is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed he'll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some liberal didn't think he should lose his home because of his temporary misfortune.
It's noon time, The Teabagger needs to make a Bank Deposit so he can pay some bills. The Teabagger's deposit is federally insured by the FSLIC because some liberal wanted to protect The Teabagger's money from unscrupulous bankers who ruined the banking system before the depression.
The Teabagger has to pay his Fannie Mae underwritten Mortgage and his below market federal student loan because some stupid liberal decided that The Teabagger and the government would be better off if he was educated and earned more money over his lifetime.
The Teabagger is home from work, he plans to visit his father this evening at his farm home in the country. He gets in his car for the drive to dad's; his car is among the safest in the world because some liberal fought for car safety standards.
He arrives at his boyhood home. He was the third generation to live in the house financed by Farmers Home Administration because bankers didn't want to make rural loans. The house didn't have electric until some big government liberal stuck his nose where it didn't belong and demanded rural electrification. (Those rural Republicans would still be sitting in the dark)
He is happy to see his dad who is now retired. His dad lives on Social Security and his union pension because some liberal made sure he could take care of himself so The Teabagger wouldn't have to.
After his visit with dad he gets back in his car for the ride home. He turns on a radio talk show, the host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good (He doesn't tell The Teabagger that his beloved Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit The Teabagger enjoys throughout his day).
The Teabagger agrees, "We don't need those big government liberals ruining our lives."
Is this from one of the Wisconsin Fleebaggers?
There is no hope to convince someone as kooky and naive as this that she is wrong.
Ask her how the heck she know so much about Anderson Cooper's morning routine.
Don’t respond and find a new friend.

He gets hit by a truck and is killed because some liberal made them downsize the cars.
Tell them to go eff themselves. Liberals are the flesh eating bacteria of the human race. They won’t quit until they had destroyed everything.
Don’t respond and find a new friend.
Ditto. You can’t reason with someone who isn’t your intellectual equal.
I’d write her off. Plain. And. Simple.
Don’t be whiney, don’t be anything but yourself...just tell her it’s been real and YOU get on with your life.
And don’t open ANYmore emails...
Yes. If you don’t want me to kick your ass up to your shoulders, stop calling me “Teabagger, faggot.”
Replace Tbgr with Constitutionalist and ‘splain how each point is funded/enabled by a society empowered by the wealth generated by Protestant Christian precepts and the Founding Fathers understanding of human nature and governmental forms.
Who needs friends like that?
One would have to have been in a coma for the last five years not to know what that term means. No one is that naive. Find a new friend.
S/B “Teabagger,” faggot.
Tell them that liberals are GREAT as doing things with OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY. Just give them ever greater portions of your paycheck and let them take more and more of your rights.
Tell them you don’t need a freaking liberal nanny government to tell you how to wash your hair or how to fee your children or what to listen to or anything else.
What #3 said.
Listen to him.
Unless you’re just out of beer, forget about her.
I was going to go line by line and point out the presumptions the loony lib makes...assuming we all use town drinking water (lots of us have wells) and that we all work for corporations that provide us with health insurance or workers compensation insurance (many of us are self-employed) or that third generation farms are dying because of the liberal’s lust for the death tax...
...but really, don’t bother. You cannot have a logical or temperate discussion with a liberal. Save yourself a lot of headache and do something productive.
On the way home he is carjacked and killed by illegal aliens because the sniveling liberals won’t protect the borders or build prisons.
