Running on Empty

Confirmed: Union protesters are definitely not Tea Party protesters
Wisconsin Republican State Senator Glenn Grothman is not the only one concerned about the “smelly” leftist “slobs” who are turning the state capitol into a “pig sty.” For months and months the media disparaged the Tea Party movement as radicals and fringe activists who would be the death of America as we know it.
