dresden, you're right. I apologize if I didn't make that clear enough in the article. This is most definitely a group with clear right-wing/Republican/Libertarian motives.

I don't think it's fair to call the American Tea Party a "grass roots" movement without noting that the roots are exclusively in the conservative blogosphere. Publicity is being provided by Pajamas Media, a right-wing blogging group. Look at who's "reporting" on the tea parties: Michelle Malkin, Glenn Reynolds, and Joe the Plumber. Also, while the Cato Institute generally does quality work, they have an explicit libertarian agenda.
