Tea Party: First Senatorial Victory

The Tea Party seems to have scored their first victory. The Senate, worried over the powerful successes of the Tea Party, defeated another continuing resolution that was really a $1 trillion Christmas tree loaded with pretty ornaments (read: earmarks) that was, in fact, another economic stimulus attempt that Dems tried to sneak into law before the new, Tea Party dominated Senate and Congress were seated. The bill was withdrawn from consideration this week by Sen. Reid (D-NV).
