Yesterday's "tea parties" were a fizzle, since proponents were hoping for a million protesters and got about one-quarter of that amount nationwide, even according to the always reliable wingnut media outlet Pajamas Media. (By comparison, Steven Colbert got 230,000 votes to name a room in the international space station after him).
Fux News utterly failed in its strong promotion of this phony "grass roots" event. The mystery remains: where were these stalwart deficit hawks in the 8 years of the Bushit Assministration? Seems they "discovered" their "principles" after January 20, 2009.
Jon Stewart has the best wrap-up on the weak tea movement (in the digestive meaning of the word).
