The next time you send money to ATR and some tea parties (teaparty.net, TPNN - have never seen one of their fundraising emails against amnesty!), be aware that it is likely ending up in the pockets of Bill Gates, GE & Grover Norquist...and NONE of them have our best interests in mind. ATR is a scam devised to fool conservatives into thinking someone is working for them to control spending/taxes....think about it...in all these years WHAT has ATR done to control either?
