Americans’ sudden love of ‘tea-parties’ paid for by corporations?

US taxpayers in more than 500 cities in 50 states are preparing rallies – dubbed ‘tea parties’. They are protesting against government policies on Wednesday – the deadline for filing income tax returns.
As we here in the "True North" have observed in the past, it is nearly always the facist republican party and their ill-informed racist supporters who have brought the U.S. so much grief. The fact that the party faithful are whores to the business leaders who have abandoned capitilism for all out greed, and that the average american can't (or won't) see it is the main reason why that once great country will probably never rise again. Anyone worried about loonies with nuclear wepons? Take a look at Dick Cheany.
The tea parties are a grass roots effort of people coming together, I believe, over the internet... through mediums such as Meetup, and Facebook. I don't know how these groups will effect the U.S. political scene... but they will. The folks I talk to are just people who have a concern for the government's direction for our nation.
