      Got it! So to protest SPENDING and TAXING, I am going to go to a site promoted by a "not a tea party organizer" cable news channel to SPEND some of my remaining $$ on to give more of my $$ to the corporate cable news?

      Sounds great! BTW, I sure am glad that FOX in NO WAY is promoting or advocating FNC Tax Tea Party Day!

      From the on screen graphic: Launched on March 6th and averages 5,000 visitors a day and a total of 50,000 since its launch.  I am not a smart republican but if a site has been up for 40 days and averages 5,000 hits a day that would be 200,000 visits so far.  Lets say the avg item on the site is selling for $10.00 (i'll be conservative for a moment), this means 20,000 items have been purchased.  Considering this is 700 events in over 50 states this site is averaging about 28 items per "Party".  That does not seem very significant for such a grass roots phenomena.
