I have never seen anything like the Tea Party in my travels to England, France, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Spain,... People seem to be a lot happier there as well. I wonder if there is a connection.
Their social/fiscal conservatives aren't close to the level of the right in this country. Our right-wing is also much better at spreading fear, hate, doubt, and lies.
