TEA Day protester saved by hand she is biting

Jim Buck gets all the credit:

Woman okay after falling into Susquehanna River
A quiet, solo protest against massive federal government spending ended in a city woman being rescued from the cold waters of the Susquehanna River on Wednesday morning.
Joanne Millard, 68, a resident at Riverfront Apartments, slipped on a rock and then fell into the water while dumping tea leaves from a plastic bag into the river to protest the recent trillions of dollars in government spending.

Jordi,
Tax protester falls in river and must be rescued by govt. she doesn't want to pay for. Thought you might want to post this at Daily Kos or something :)

Well, I got as far as this blog.

Democratic Underground already found it.

Dubya's legacy

This Historian takes apart Dubya's legacy. I am mostly looking to the future, but this line is a doozy (Gibbon wrote the definitive rise and fall of Roman Empire).

Not even Gibbon could supply a story as fatefully bizarre as the ultimate consummation of Reagan-Bush conservatism, its last act: the most massive shift of financial power from the private to the public sector since the New Deal. Rather like the Pope deciding that all along he really wanted a barmitzvah.
