Steele Calls for More Tea Baggin'
This is too funny not to mock. GOP Chairman, and consummate unintentional punchline, Michael Steele is asking supporter to join him in tea bagging the President. Yes, TEA BAGGING.
From this week's GOP email newsletter:
So on this Tax Day, April 15, the Republican National Committee is asking you, along with hundreds of thousands of grassroots activists across our country, to assert a real patriotic act by sending a virtual tea bag to Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and the rest of the tax, spend and borrow Democrats. Let them know enough is enough and you don't approve of their plan to pass the largest tax hike in American history.
And if propositioning you to engage in sexual act weren't enough, he;d also like to solicit some cash for the act:
And when you send your virtual tea bag today, I hope you will also take this opportunity to make a secure online contribution of $25, $50, $100, $500 or $1,000 to the RNC today to help fund our efforts to resist the massive tax and spending increases Barack Obama and the Pelosi-Reid Democrats are attempting to ram through Congress.
I'm glad to see the Republicans loosening up on their sexual hang ups, but hustling for cash in exchange for balls on your face is maybe not what we all expected from these clowns.

Talking Points Memo (and others) look into the momentum of this supposed "growing grassroots effort" and find it is less than what some would have you believe:

I call for a mass sending of Hoboken Hot Dogs to Republicans nationwide to celebrate Memorial Day.

Olbermann: "If things get too testy, this teabagging thing could blow up in (the Right's) faces."
