A Missive From Outer Space

Someone just told Powerline's Scott Johnson what tea-bagging is. The post is an instant camp classic:

There is something funny going on here, if not exactly where Cooper, Maddow and Sullivan find it. Cooper is widely reputed to be homosexual. Maddow and Sullivan are of course public homosexuals. It is funny in an ironic sort of way that these folks choose to disparage the tea party protestors from somewhere inside the homosexual subculture. Why not just call the protestors girly boys and let everyone in on the joke? Or would that spoil the fun?

I can assure Mr Johnson that teabagging knows no bounds on sexual orientation - and the vast majority of tea-bagging is purely heterosexual - and no disparagement or celebration of the teabaggers' sexual orientation is implied or imagined. I believe in tea-bag equality for all - gay and straight - myself. So does Samantha.

Ever wonder why the GOP is losing the next generation?
