So this guy wrote a letter to Obama criticizing this, that and so forth. Obama sent back a hand-written reply in which (echoing the language of the letter-writer) he referred to "tea-baggers."
A newspaper article says this:
"‘Tea-bagging’ commonly refers to a lewd sexual act. Since the rise of the Tea Party movement, which vehemently opposes big government and Obamacare, critics on the left have been using the controversial term to poke fun at the right-wing protesters."*
I didn't know that--either that people have been poking fun at right-wing protesters with this term, or that the term commonly refers to a lewd sexual act. What sexual act does it commonly refer to? Can it be that President Obama is as naive and ill-informed as I am?
(Monte Smith will point out that Internet search engines make it easy to answer a question such as the one about "tea-bagging" for oneself. True enough. But a thread about lewd sexual practices and politics can only be a good thing.)
