Another fun fact: The Tea Party broke the law again and again but just never got arrested, because they have clout. I am a witness to this fact.
No they have not. It's the Occupiers who regularly broke laws and caused all sorts of property damage wherever they protest. To think the Tea Party supports the establishment is ludicrous. We want the government to get its act together, to cut the intervention in the economy, to address the grievances we have with, and hopefully, abolish obamacare . Why is the Occupy Movement getting carte blanche regarding financial disclosures and the Tea Parties being unjustly hounded by the IRS without any Cassius Belli? Simple. Occupies financial backers are deeply entrenched in the administration. The Tea Party groups are truly grassroots often bankrolled by everyday citizens. That's what Obama and co are afraid of. The Establishment in BOTH PARTIES don't feel they should be held to account by the people. IIRC, Obama came in on a wave of wanting more transparency and we've gotten even less.
