Did history repeat itself? (Boston Tea Party)?

Yes this is the 21st century version of the Boston Tea Party. Instead of revolting against England, we are protesting against the corruption of out own government. Sad...

No,

The same lobbyists who control the government havn't been touched.

Republicans and Democrats are just an illusion the Lobbyists are using to cover their actions and cast blame working the people up in a lather with left vs right scams to ignore the Civil Rights being removed so they can crate indentured servatiude for credit issues.

Boston Tea party was about Taxation without representation. Last night was about voting for representation. Not even close.

Nope, the teabaggers are not anything like the originals at all.

They have almost the entirely opposite ideology.

No, I agree with the other poster. Lobbyists still own Washington, gridlock will continue and nothing has changed.

uh no, people were being taxed based on what their representatives voted for, then they voted to bring back the ones who will take their tax money and throw into the harbor instead of using it to make this a better country to live in.

i'm professional-regulated capitalism. Which my communist acquaintances say potential i'm in desire of letting capital rape the planet whilst my acquaintances in financial centers say potential i'm in desire of a Marxist takeover of the country. So, if the two factors are shooting at me, i might desire to be doing something top. eco-friendly occasion.

Tea Party is alive and well in Boston....I am so proud of you guys...

Mass. stopped a whole bunch of evil tyrants from taking over the USA and eliminating our freedoms, they also stopped the British.

I did not see anyone throwing oversea containers in the harbor.
