so, you're alright with Boehner, because that's the only choice for the forseeable future? No Tea Bagger gets close to 218, McCarthy made that clear, and the only one who had a chance to unite the caucus MIGHT have been Ryan, who declined again.

I hope in the future you do not call out people who use racist terms when describing other people. Tea Bagger :
(slang, vulgar) A person who practices teabagging, i.e., the sexual act of inserting the scrotum into someone's mouth.

So you like using derogatory terms?

Um, they started using the term first woody. However, they didn't realize there was that particular definition you quoted above when they started using it. They obviously never Googled "Teabagger" or "tea bag someone" before they started using it on all their T-shirts and protest signs like a bunch of fools. NOW it's a slur since they know what it really means and it's stuck. I wonder if the sales of these T-shirts have dropped off since. :P

every time I hear teabagger, I think of Red Vs Blue.
