Tea Parties

Here's an entertaining and, from my pov, accurate criticism of the tea parties: LAT "What exactly are the protesters protesting? The marginal tax rate rising 3% for millionaires?"

"The Tea Party movement, more than anything else, is a rather garish display of a Republican right that seems to have lost not only the national elections but also any semblance of political bearings. Staying on this course, the GOP risks -- in the words of one pundit -- becoming "the Talk Radio Republican Party."

Better put that kettle on, Marge. It's going to be a long and bizarre four years."
