Michael Patrick Leahy (or as we call him, "Less Creepy Bill Whittle") makes for riveting PJTV as he pumps up the volume for all tomorrow’s Tea Parties
Things we learn:
- The Teabaggers are not all white. They have a black guy and a mexican guy. So suck on that Geraldo Rivera.
- Julia Hayden, who does her teabagging in San Antonio, has cat scratch fever because Ted Nugent is going to be in da house (Julia does ‘raise the roof’ hand motions) which causes Leahy to comment ( in his most sincere high school career counselor "I’m down with the kids" voice) : "Ted Nugent singing the national anthem. Who wouldn’t want to hear that?" Fuck yeah.
- Judson Phillips, a Teabagger from Nashville, is getting FIVE EMAILS AN HOUR about this wondrous event. FIVE. That’s like one every twelve minutes. Five. 5.
- Charlie Gurshow from Des Moines goes off message and wants to talk about how teh ghey is taking over his state and now those people are homohumpsexing every thing that moves. Or doesn’t move. Like Charlie’s wife. Leahy talks Charlie down but, with all of this talk about teabagging, well, it’s easy to see why Charlie got confused.
- Novice teabagger Christie Carden of Huntsville explains she has "no experience whatsoever doing anything like this before so it’s been a challenge from multiple angles". I have nothing to add to this one.
- California teabagger Mark Meckler predicts an "earthquake" but I think it’s just a metaphor like "I felt the earth move". Anyway the Sacramento teabagging will feature living puppet Neil Cavuto, demure rage addict Michelle Malkin, and that black guy who sings that bad tea party song. White people rhythmically clapping to patriotic faux-gospel? Funny… but sad. Mostly funny.
At about this time a lost and disoriented Roger Simon wanders in front of the camera and that is the type of zany wackiness that makes PJTV the most awesomest online TV that they think people are going to pay for. But they’re not.
And that is sad, but mostly funny.

Umm…can I have Christie’s number?
Novice teabagger Christie Carden of Huntsville explains she has “no experience whatsoever doing anything like this before so it’s been a challenge from multiple angles”.
Bwahahahahahaha! You made that up. She didn’t say that. Did she?
Michael Patrick Leahy may be less creepy than Bill Whittle, but not by much. They are the Harvard and Yale of creepy.
We are all having fun with this, but honest to God, if watching how this event is playing out doesn’t push the last semi-sane libertarian/conservative off the crazy boat that is the current republican party, I don’t know what will. I guess from the numbers, they may already be gone. Full speed ahead to the bottom of the sea, Capt. Simon!
I am SO excited with the upcoming festivities! I just hope I have something to wear.
Something very loose to wear.
From thinkprogress.org:
Pat Garofalo notes this priceless quote from MSNBC’s David Shuster: “If you are planning simultaneous tea bagging all around the country, you’re going to need a Dick Armey.”
I’ve noticed that Shuster cannot keep a straight face while covering these events, while on the other hand, Anderson Cooper reported the upcoming protests without even a smirk. Coop is a Pro.
So not of these clowns has ever looked up the term to see if it has any, um, alternate meanings or connotations?
I’m hoping that these yahoos get the bright idea to start drinking tea, and that they end up on the streets at 2 AM, manically buttonholing strangers and giving them their refund checks in exchange for promised page hits. Then they beg the cops to arrest them through clenched teeth. A very special edition of The Smoking Gun’s mugshot roundup ensues.
Oh, also: I was going to suggest that I’d rather hear Ted Nugent’s nuts being slammed in a car door, but could anyone tell the difference without video?
Has Julia told Ted that teabagging doesn’t mean…teabagging? I mean, I certainly wouldn’t want to disappoint a man who hunts with a bow and arrow. You never know when he might decide to reenact “The Most Dangerous Game”.
Ted Nugent enjoys “sport shooting” endangered animals, like elephants. Cuz he’s a MAAAAAAAAN.
I was looking for a place to leave this.
Someone needs to encourage these idiots to write a teabag anthem.
“Oh say can you see..” rhymes beautifully with tea.
MSNBC is clear on the definition of teabagging.

Teabagger? I hardly know her!
We have a “Rename the Great Teabagging” poll up at Whiskey Fire.
Surely, out of the dozens of people involved, someone has to have figured out why all the kids at the back of the room are snickering, right?
And now Jane is reporting that Newt flies around in planes from Moby Dick airlines!! So, we’ve got your teabagging with a Dick Armey, assisted by a Moby Dick. And if that doesn’t satisfy completely, join up with 2M4M. This is just tooooooooo rich. David? Rachel? Jon? Steven?
harlie Gurshow from Des Moines goes off message and wants to talk about how teh ghey is taking over his state and now those people are homohumpsexing every thing that moves. Or doesn’t move. Like Charlie’s wife. Leahy talks Charlie down but, with all of this talk about teabagging, well, it’s easy to see why Charlie got confused.
Hmmmm, will there be a “Teabaggers against Gay Marriage” sign at the Iowa “rally” tomorrow?
Is Ted “Foreigners are assholes; foreigners are scum” Nugent going to wear a Confederate flag T-shirt and demand the expulsion of illegal immigrants while brandishing an AK-47? Is he going to call Hillary Clinton a “toxic cunt”? Is he going to claim that he’s a “bigger nigger” than Barack Obama?
Because who wouldn’t want to hear that?
Digg Is open for ya to Digg Ted Nugent and his Cat Scratch Febver, which really means that the Rethuglians all have the “Crabs” from all those Hookers and airport bathroom encounters!
updating an old chestnut:
who knew he could say all that on the air. LOL.
How long does it take to drive from San Diego to Sacramento?
America. What a country.
just give ted a chainsaw. he might provide his own teabags.
Is that Katharine Harris with the grenade in her teeth?
She’s no teabagging novice, for damn sure…
