The Left Is Underestimating Opponents Again

When going into any kind of competition, I was taught to respect the abilities of an opponent. To not do so results in things we commonly refer to as “upsets”.

Seeing how a lot of liberals aren’t into sports and have disdain for organized competition, the comments by the website “biasedliberalmedia.com” about the comic book’s mocking of Minnesota congresswoman Michele Bachmann (and conservatives in general) by “award-winning Minneapolis artist and political activist Ken Avidor” make perfect sense.

The little guy with the hat with the teabags hanging from it is a “tea-bagger,” a conservative anti-tax activist — representing hundreds of the same who use tea bags as a symbol of one of the first American anti-tax rebellions, the Boston Tea Party. (These people clearly have no idea what “tea bagging” refers to in sexual slang, or they would be even angrier than they are.) Michele is on record as saying that she “hates” taxes. These days she’s not talking about cutting taxes so much; she tends to talk more about the debt that is caused by the failure to tax. But conservatives still have her down as an anti-tax politician even though she has never successfully lowered anyone’s taxes.

‘These people clearly have no idea what “tea bagging” refers to in sexual slang, or they would be even angrier than they are.’

A clear example of the narcissistic underestimation of their ideological opponents.

As it turns out, many on the right DO know what the term means (a slur coming from the tolerant and inclusive) and that’s why they are even angrier, the elected in Washington D.C. are either jumping ship and not seeking reelection, or are abandoning the Democrat efforts in controversial legislation thus giving the Obama Administration no choice but to blame Republican “obstruction” for the lack of his own liberal votes.

So go right ahead insisting that the right is uninformed, uneducated, and clueless while we’re being insulted. Go right ahead assuming we don’t know what’s going on, because as the denigration mounts, so too is the resolve to send Democrats into political oblivion and the funny thing is, know-it-all liberals won’t know what hit them.

And as for “award-winning Minneapolis artist and political activist Ken Avidor”, I’m not sure who issues those ‘awards’ but I think you could find a fifth grader who can do better work and cheaper too.
