Proof that even joke teabagging makes you stupid:
The Log Cabin Republicans of Los Angeles -- the largest such gay GOP organization in the country -- is holding a Tea Bag Toss at Christopher Street West, the Los Angeles Pride celebration this weekend.
According to a press release we just got, "Participants will purchase a tea bag and win a prize if they can successfully throw it through the open mouth of one of three politicians on the game board."
We had to know if this was for real, so we got a hold of Scott Schmidt, president of of Log Cabin-Los Angeles.
He said it was part of their effort to reach out the LGBT community, and, "We figured this year we ought to take it up a notch and do something that is engaging and somewhat amusing and shows that we can even laugh at ourselves."
And the three open-mouthed politicos? Those would be Attorney General and Democratic gubernatorial nominee Jerry Brown, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and former Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin.
Schmidt said including Palin was an attempt to be nonpartisan and he noted that she raised the sales tax while mayor of Wasilla, Alaska.
Yes. Palin raised the sales tax. Also, she thinks you're a vile abomination against God and hopes that you will die and burn in Hell.
So, you know, same-same.
Way to stand up for yourselves, gay Republicans.
