Strong brew

The term "tea-bagger" is like uttering the "n" word, some say. Though he aspires to promote civility, evidence has surfaced that President Obama has added "tea-bagger" to his public lexicon, though it's considered a cheap and tawdry insult by "tea party" activists. Watchdogs at Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) barked when they saw the proof, tucked in a sneak peak of Newsweek columnist Jonathan Alter's new book, "The Promise: President Obama, Year One," to be released May 18. Indeed, it appears the president joined certain partisan critics and the liberal media, and took the tea-bag plunge.

Like scratching an itch with his middle-finger, he knows what he's doing and to a certain audience it's considered cute.

I said from the beginning that I would show Øbozo more respect than the left showed GW, and I knew that this would be easy given the wretched excess that they heaped upon Bush. That said, I have lately been referring to Øbozo as the “Scumbagger in Chief” to my liberal “friends”.

Makes ‘em crazy!

Yet again, it shows how childish and unprofessional this POS POTUS is. .. but something to be mindfull of; this is how Hitler started with demonizing the jews. (remember, it took 5 years)

Between Bloomberg, MSNBC et al, yesterday, in an almost orchestrated effort, implying (joking?) that the NYC bomb was - or could be - the result of a tea party patriot is a strategy to paint a bullseye on patriots.

Only enemies of our Constitution demonize those who support it. (hmm.. think I’ll turn that into a bumper sticker)
