We visit a Savannah College of Art and Design art house which was busted by police for a noise violation. Were the neighbors in the right to form a neighborhood watch group and call the cops on the house party or are they being busy body neighbors who used the violence of the state on their neighbors? We interview Dominic Graves and explore if this is a property rights issue.

Over the past several days, two political parties have been holding their national conventions. One party holds all conventions online, with online voting and no overhead (other than cost of getting online) for party members who wish to participate. The other party regularly holds conventions in upscale hotels and has recently adopted a mandatory fee for any party member who wishes to be a delegate. One of these parties has only been around for 6 years, the other for 40 and is proving that age does not always equal wisdom.

A article on the Patriot and Tea Party movements. I believe that it shows the mind set of many of the people who go out and hold their flags to protest taxes. It also shows the inevitable co-opting of the movement by the established Republicans/neocons, along with a health dose of propaganda and fear mongering.

Hoffman, who initiated the sit-down, cautioned that the Tea Party movement is an autonomous grassroots movement and will not "be absorbed into the RNC."

Indeed, when a group of participants were asked after the meeting if they consider themselves Republicans, nearly all shook their heads and boasted that they were "American citizens." Others said they knew of fellow Tea Party activists who refused to come to the meeting because they do not trust the Republican leadership.

As Obama and Romney faced off for the last time before the general election, we once again broke the sound barrier by inserting Jill Stein of the Green Party and Rocky Anderson of the Justice Party into the discussion. Before a live audience in San Rafael, California, we aired the Obama-Romney debate and paused the tape to give Stein and Anderson a chance to respond in real time to the same questions put to the major-party candidates.

In response to the brazen effort on behalf of Republicans and neo-conservatives to hijack the Tea Party, as well as the establishment’s attempt to promote the Obama front “Coffee Party” as a fraudulent alternative, we are announcing the creation of The Real Coffee Party, an organization committed not to partisan bickering, but to the basic principles outlined in the Constitution.*

Heading to a TEA party on the 4th,cop pulled up behind me and eventually pulled over a guy in a truck that was next to me. Just as easily could have been me. Celebrating freedom and independence in a place where you can be stopped in your travel without a damaged party.

The last quote in the story tells it all. The message of the Tea party movement will be "moderated" by 2010. It really is a republican movement and they simply want their own tyrant in charge. The method will be the same and the result will be the same.
