Tea Parties and the Occupiers have a few commonalities, but, although many
media outlets have attempted to do so, it's a mistake to equate the two
phenomena.
The American left has been pining for a liberal balance to the popular Tea
Party/grassroots groups since the latter reached numbers sufficient to
assure that its collective voice would be heard. But the "movement" the
left produced will end badly for the progressive politicians whom, through

The results of this week’s The Hill Poll indicate that 85 percent of voters
