Rally To Expose Tea Party for What They Are
Boston-based Democratic Politcal Consultant Jim Spencer, along with Curtis Ellis, a Democratic Political Consultant in New York, pen an op-ed in today's LA Times that suggests the Tea Party members are the same people who protested in the 60s.

Protest Against Obamacare and the ABC-TV Obamacare Infomercial
ABC is going to be turning over
all of its news programming to the White House on Wednesday.

Other "highlights" included a large trailer with some pretty graphic images on it. While I absolutely support free speech and the right to assembly, it was a little invasive and disturbing.
Boston Police have twittered about a large protest of 300-500 firefighters holding a rally at Beacon St and Charles St near the Common. No word on the rally yet from either of the papers of record. Any idea what's going on today up on the Hill?
