Tea Party Held On OU Campus

Oklahoma blogger Jason Fritts documented quite nicely the tea party at OU on Monday. For those of you who don't know what these 'tea parties' are all about: They are gatherings of taxpayers and voters who believe the federal government is overstepping its bounds relative to spending and power.


The concept is rooted in revolutionary history, of course, but ignited by Rick Santelli's cable television rant of a few weeks ago.


Jason writes that there were about 100 to 150 people in attendance, and he lamented that there weren't more folks in attendance given the population near campus.
