Anti-Tea Party Web Site Part of Scheme to Funnel Funds
By Joseph Abrams

A
new Web site targeting the tea parties is a part of a complex network
of money flowing from the mountainous coffers of the country's biggest
labor unions and trickling slowly into political slush funds for
Democratic activists.
A seemingly grassroots organization that's mounted an online
campaign to counter the tea party movement is actually the front end of
an elaborate scheme that funnels funds -- including sizable labor union
contributions -- through the offices of a prominent Democratic party
lawyer.
A Web site popped up in January dedicated to preventing the tea
party's "radical" and "dangerous" ideas from "gaining legislative
traction," targeting GOP candidates in Illinois for the firing squad.
"This movement is a fad," proclaims TheTeaPartyIsOver.org,
which was established by the American Public Policy Center (APPC), a
D.C.-based campaign shop that few people have ever heard of.
But a close look reveals the APPC's place in a complex network of
money flowing from the mountainous coffers of the country's biggest
labor unions into political slush funds for Democratic activists.
