A most hilarious thing happened here in US: Republicans decided to protest high taxes and high government spending by re-enacting an historical revolt from 1776, the Boston Tea Party, where rebels dumped the king sponsored tea on the Boston harbor.
A nice idea but what could you call such protest ? I guess "Tea Party" sounded a bit girly and childish so a lot of conservatives started calling it "tea bagging" based on the fact that tea nowadays comes generally in bags.

Problem is "tea bagging" has a very naughty meaning:

They had their protest day April 15th and were mocked mercilessly on the media, because just a few came - less than a single Obama rally - and because of their entertaining name for the thing. And now they are up in arms because the rest of the country is laughing at them. Including me :D
So have any of the forum resident GOP fans have been teabagging ? Has it been draining ? Exhilarating ? Did it leave a sour taste on your mouth ? Was it good ? :D
Oh and get this.. Their next protest is 2 million men for marriage, or as craiglist woud say 2M4M . I'm not making this up!!!!
