Tea Bagging Obama: Protesters Plan To Dump 1 Million Tea Bags In DC

There will be no tea-dumping in the Potomac River -- that's illegal -- but organizers of the national tea party tax protests say they plan to dump a million tea bags in Lafayette Square today to demonstrate displeasure at government spending and tax policies.

Protesters plan to place the tea bags on tarps and clean up afterward, an organizer said.

The tea, which will be delivered by truck, has been purchased online by people upset over recent government policy, said John Gauger, a spokesman for the grass-roots conservative group Reagan.org.
