Poor Babies

Seems the rightwing dolts over at Power Line have finally been clued in on the, ah, other meaning of "teabagging" and they have their panties in the usual wad over it:

There is not only something funny going on here, there is a story here. These supposed journalists and their networks (or publisher, in Sullivan's case) have rather seriously insulted the citizens who colorfully took to the streets to air respectable views in a most civil fashion. If they had any decency, Cooper et al. would apologize for their vile reference to sexual practices in the context of ordinary citizens exercising their First Amendment rights.

Note that these are the same sort of people who are all "hey, it was a joke, can't you take a little joke?" When Ann Coulter calls John Edwards a "faggot" or Rush Limbaugh cracks that Ted Kennedy will be dead before the health care bill passes. These are the same people who like to portray liberals as humorless and stuffy over "politically correct" language. It ain't so funny when you're the joke, is it, wingnuts? Well, here's your remedy...

STOP BEING A JOKE. ACT LIKE A SERIOUS POLITICAL PARTY INSTEAD OF A BUNCH OF CRANKS PROTESTING TAX "INCREASES" WHEN YOU PROBABLY GOT A TAX CUT. AND TAKE THOSE STUPID-ASS TEA BAGS OFF YOUR SILLY HATS.
