The Mushroom Effect

Taking Tea with the Lizards
By Joe Bageant
The Tea Party is the latest neoconservative end run around the possibility of a real third party emerging to threaten the status quo.

And, in true neocon fashion, it capitalizes on the working class' inchoate anger at the ongoing screwjob they've been getting from both parties for thirty years.
