I read yesterday's Impromptus on National Review Online by the ever-enjoyable Jay Nordlinger, and I had a thought while reading Jay's comments on the use of the vile slang phrase
"teabagging" by certain juvenile liberals to describe the Tea Party movement. (Full disclosure -- I'm a member of the movement.) You can read the Impromptus in question
here.
I suggest that every conservative and every Republican who is in front of a camera when someone uses a form of the word "teabag" to describe the decent Americans who have had enough of representatives who mistake themselves for rulers (and who are apparently deranged besides) say something like "If you'd like to know what David Shuster" (of MSNBC, and a fitting example, as he's one of the biggest offenders) "just said about tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of good, decent Americans, look up 'teabagging' on Wikipedia, and then call David's employers with your opinion."
Wouldn't it be fun watching the slanderous lefty turn into a pillar of salt right on camera?
