Teabag a friend tomorrow

Most of you have heard about the Tea Parties scheduled for tomorrow which have been organized by conservative groups to protest the alleged tax increases by Barack Obama.

Not only is the "grass roots" movement a charade, as Paul Krugman explained this weekend, the use of the term "teabagging" by the group's organizers turns out to be a very funny miscalculation.

According to the web's UrbanDictionary the definition of "teabag" is: Dipping your testicles into the open mouth of another person. Kind of like dipping a tea bag in and out of a cup of water.

Ooops.

Locally, the biggest teabagging advocate is WTIC-AM radio host Jim Vicevich. Open wide Jim.

Visit Vermont, leave the assholes at home

By now you've heard the the Brattleboro town council has put out arrest warrants for George Bush and Dick Cheney. Of course, it's lead to the expected vile and violent death threats by indignant conservatives.

Those not promising to wipe every Vermonter from the face of the earth, and doing it limb by bloodied limb, are vowing to cancel vacations to Vermont.

Does that mean that violent right-wing wackos will be staying away from Brattleboro for the forseeable future?

Honey, pack our bags.
