Anyone remember that the Tea Party teabaggers got together to protest
financial bailouts? A KOS blogger does:

"They were so mad at the Wall Street bankers who destroyed the economy
and then took our hard earned money for their efforts.

So, they will take this opportunity of course to launch their own
protest of Wall Street. They will protest the TARP money, the easy
credit, the lack of regulation, the wild risk taking and the excessive
bonuses paid with taxpayer money. They're really going to take the fight
to them.

Just kidding. They're not going to do anything. They're going to sit out
this fight on financial reform and put absolutely no pressure on Wall
Street at all. Because they are tools easily manipulated by right-wing
organizations funded by corporate America."


Spot-on.
