IF YOU MISSED IT THIS MORNING, check out my Wall Street Journal column on the Tea Party movement.

UPDATE: The flacks at Media Matters challenge my claim that the Tea Party movement has brought millions of Americans to the streets by picking a low-ball number for a single protest and noting that it’s less than a million. This is about as persuasive as most of their work. Nobody knows how many total protesters have turned out, of course, but there have been tea party protests pretty much every week, all over the country, and many of them have been quite large, while some estimates put individual protest days at close to a million. So I think “millions” is a reasonable total estimate. But, then, I don’t work for George Soros.
