Boston tea party anniversary

ByRod Adams

Two hundred and thirty-four years ago, a group of colonists took action against a unilateral imposition of taxes by a distant government led by King George.

Today, there are many liberty loving people who are remembering this event in a rather uniquely internet era way. You can find out more by visiting Tea Party 07. There is also an interesting blog post and lengthy thread of comments at Top of the Ticket, a political blog written by long time observer Andrew Malcolm and hosted by the latimes.com.
