Who are the tea-baggers protesting?

Fox News (of course) will be airing an all day special on the nation wide tea-party that is protesting...well actually they don' t even know what they are protesting..some of them they believe they are protesting socialism, some believe they are protesting higher taxes when taxes haven't even been raised yet in most cases (unless your a smoker). So nutty right-wingers enjoy pouring tea into the rivers, I will just sit back and continue to watch the republican party self-destruct.
