I don't believe that merely protesting taxes or government spending qualifies you to be a true teabagger. In some cases, I might agree that more taxes or more spending isn't the answer. But that does not make me a teabagger. To be a true teabagger requires a certain kind of crazy. A special mix of anti-government, racism and just plain old-fashioned ignorance. Because it is sometimes hard for teabaggers to correctly identify themselves, I've included some examples of teabaggers below.
