Essay:Tea party versus the Founders

The Tea Party movement, by its name as well as many of its actions, seem to view themselves as the heirs of the Founders of America opposing Barack Obama as if he were George III.

The founders, 234 years ago as of the day of this writing, put forth a list of their grievances which led to them declaring independence from Great Britain.

The point of this essay is to analyze the list of grievances that led the Founders to take such an extraordinarily bold act, and see if they really can compare themselves to the Founders.

Summation
In short, the Tea Party has nothing on the Founders.
