Would you teabag on a train?
Would you teabag on a plane?
Would you teabag wearing socks?
Could you try not watching Fox?

How the hell will history books ever manage to describe this decade

Camonk I'm picturing a little sidebar with a picture of the Obama = Hitler guy and it'll just have a brief little blurb about how America was really, really retarded for a while there. The heading will be "The Stupid Years" and they'll talk about how people were actually idiotic enough to not want universal health care. There will be a sort of winking tone to the whole thing that lets the reader know that they're in on the joke cause they live in a better time.

I don't trust Maddow to get her facts straight, considering that MSNBC (Or at least Maddow and Olbermann) are unabashed liberals. I also don't trust her comparing protest numbers to sporting events, and other non-political gatherings. I Would have liked to have seen them compared to other protests, preferably during the ramp-up to the Iraq War. (As opposed to later, when more Americans were catching on when the War was a bad idea- in short, nascent protests before wide spread unpopularity.)
Here's some better numbers.
5000 in Sacramento CA were Teabagging.
50000 to 60000 in LA for anti-war protests. ( I was unable to find numbers for an anti-war protest in Sacramento, or a tea bag protest in LA. Population of the two cities is vastly in favor of LA.)
I am aware that this may not be the most useful comparison - I would like to think more people are strongly opposed to war then taxes. If someone can think of a more useful comparison, I would love to see it.

ProfessorChaos "The irony of these protests is that federal revenues as a share of the gross domestic product will be lower this year than any year since 1950. ... The truth is that the U.S. is a relatively low-tax country no matter how you slice the data." - Bruce Bartlett, Fortune Magazine analyst

I do love my left-wing media bias.
It's feeling forced. But I'm still giddy over the left-wing bias.

they just can't stop saying "teabagging" can they?
|
SteamPoweredKleenex The conservative talking heads can't, either. The difference is that they don't know what it means or why we're laughing at them.

This is almost better than when I found out that 90% of WoW players don't really know what a "twink" is.

You can tell Republicans are just starting to learn how to protest, Anti-War Protesters normally have far more creative signs.
