Be sure look up "tea baggers" in the online dictionary of
slang. You'll answer your own question.

You should have offered that advice to the Tea Baggers who used that term to
describe themselves before they found out it already had a meaning of which
some of them were unaware. It would be just as funny if some left-wing
group made a similar blunder and chose a name with an unfortunate
connotation (in my experience liberals can be just as smug and humorless as
their right-wing counterparts), and in that situation there isn't a chance
you'd ever stop using the term, is there.

Keith Olbermann Reminds the Teabaggers that They Coined Their Own Name

January 19, 2010

On his MSNBC show Countdown, host Keith Olbermann reminded the teabaggers,
who just now seem to have figured out what the name means, where the term
teabagger came from. Hint: it wasn’t Maddow or Olbermann but the teabaggers
themselves who coined the term.

Olbermann said, “It is as useful to remind them anew of how the term
originated and with whom. A TV news report aired last March 14 in which a
correspondent described the original protest act, ‘take a teabag, put it in
an envelope, and mail it to the White House.’ He added, ‘reteaparty.com has
a headline Teabag the Fools in D.C. on tax day.’ Thus the verb to teabag was
invented by the teabaggers themselves, and the correspondent who put it on
TV was a Griff Jenkins of Fox News. Send your complaints to him.”

The teabaggers coined their own name, without realizing what it also means,
and then they blamed their critics for their stupidity. By the way, why did
it take them so long to figure out what a teabagger is? Why has this outrage
on their part flared up recently?

It is as if none of them know how to use Google. (I’ll help you out
teabaggers. Google isn’t another sexual term. It is a search engine. Ask one
of your grand kids to show you how it works). Olbermann is correct Fox News
helped spread the term before MSNBC got a hold of it, but as we know in the
teabagger mind, Fox News can do no wrong, so it is a given that they won’t
believe Olbermann, or me for that matter.
