Broken In Brief: American Tea Party teabaggers unaware of the sexual implications of their moniker

WASHINGTON—As the right wing American Tea Party pursues media exposure for their April 15th tax day demonstrations, snickering liberals remain divided over whether to let them in on the testicle-related sexual slang associated with the term "tea bagging."

“This week thousands of Americans will participate in these Tea Party protests against reckless government overspending,” said Mike Perkins, a spokesman for FreedomWorks, the group organizing the event. During a press conference promoting the ostensibly grassroots movement, Perkins declared, “My fellow tea baggers and tea bagging aficionados, we will show everyone that you can’t push us around. We’ll show the liberals our tea bags and let them know we can’t be pushed around. Tea baggers unite!”

In the back of the press conference, a group of snarky college students were stifling laughter.

“He thinks he's [laughter] talking... about spending and... [laughter] the... Boston Tea... Party… but… he’s actually… talking… about… balls [laughter]… and... and… ballsacks,” said a doubled over Brandon Rousch, a Georgetown campus student organizer, between brief gasps for air.

After this initial rallying cry, Mr. Perkins announced another FreedomWorks plan to mail boxing gloves to Democratic leaders to show them that the Republican party was ready for a fight.

“Speaker Pelosi, we’re ready to do battle with you over the future of this country. That’s why we’re proud to announce the beginnings of what we hope will grow into another national movement: Operation Donkey Punch!” he said, apparently in reference to a pugilistic bout with the traditional mascot of the Democratic Party.

At this point Mr. Rousch and his colleagues were rolling around on the floor, unable to control their laughter. “Nobody tell them,” he said, a spot of urine beginning to appear on his pants. “Nobody tell them what that means!”
