Weekend "Tea Parties"

Several more taxpayer protests, dubbed "Tea Parties" after the Boston Tea Party, were held this weekend. Ironically, the 40 people who protested the AIG bonuses got national coverage (journalists outnumbered protestors by more than 2 to 1), while the Tea Parties did not.

Orlando, Florida 4,000 people
Raleigh, NC 300-400
Ridgefield, Conn. 200-300
Lexington, KY 1,200 - 1,500
Solomons Island, Maryland 300
