Tea Party story making media rounds

This article on the Tea Party movement has been making it's rounds since it was released by AP -- this NPR link is one example. Libertarians are still being linked with the Tea Party, some will agree with that, some will not.

One part of the AP piece:

Some tea party activists — part of a loose-knit, libertarian-tinged network advocating small government and less federal spending — already are dismayed to see their new lawmakers plunge into familiar patterns of raising political cash, hiring former lobbyists and stopping short of the often-heard vow to "change the way Washington works."


I'll say 'I told you so' later -- if you don't change the system but only change the players? Nothing ever changes ...
