Thanks for that, Joel.  The "Taxed Enough Already" (TEA) party movement has been the unfortunate victim of a very successful smear campaign - partly because it's managed to attract a handful of the wrong sorts of people, but mostly because it's become a very real threat to the Washington establishment.  We "scum" are Freenet's best hope - as you can see, the current, supposedly "tech-savvy" U.S. political administration hasn't lived up to your expectations.
