NPR retreats from its occasional Air America-style raunch and snark on the topic for a mostly respectful profile of Keli Carender, who was hosting Tea Parties before they were called Tea Parties.

Meanwhile, while the Tea Party movement on the whole has been a stunning success (just ask SEIU, which is in bed with a typically disingenuous stealth group to discredit them), the jury is still out on the upcoming Tea Party Nation convention in Nashville this weekend — at least based on what Melissa Clouthier wrote about them a couple of weeks ago: “Tea Party Nation’s Judson Phillips: ‘I Want To Make A Million From This Movement.'”
Update: Look out Tea Partiers — Captain America is swinging into action against you! And given the steady leftward tilt of the comic industry in the past couple of decades, that’s sadly not at all surprising.
