I don't care for the term at all and would prefer that it was no one used it...observers or tea party participants...but I think it's a bit ignorant to pretend that tea partiers didn't initially use the term themselves (particularly because I have now informed you of this fact multiple times...you can't act like you didn't know it).

(entry) 6. tea bagger
1. A sex act.
2. A phrase Fox News picked to promote a series of "Boston Tea Party" reenactment protests against the Obama administration on Tax Freedom Day, apparently unaware of the meaning of the phrase (see above.)
Fox news watcher: are you going to the tea bagger party?
Me: what are you, some kinda perv?
