Anti-Semitic liberal Nazis making Anne Frank reference because Cantor is Jewish. Just horrible people.
That is a wild article. Thanks B-Bob, and thanks Rashmon, although I missed your post as well. One of the things that jumped out at me was seeing that several of my mutual funds are through companies in the top 15. Kind of creeped me out!
The day that occupy [FITB] can understand that we truly are 99%, and not whine about the other hippy BS in when it will start progressing. We are all pissed. Quit blaming, and start joining for a just cause. Otherwise, you're simply a moronic sheep.
The reason Occupy Wallstreet doesn't have a message is because it is truly grassroots. It isn't a political action committee like the Tea Party - which was a right wing funded entity from the get go. OWS is organic and represents people frustrated with the way things work. They have incoherent demands because they don't know how things work. Heck neither does 99% of America, and very few people on this board (I know 3 or 4 max - none of them the right wingers). I think it's great the right dismisses them instead of embracing them, because all that does it associate the frustrations of america to the Republican party. If it is Republicans who mock them, when OWS has strong approval ratings across America, it just makes it seem that the Republicans are the ones behind all the things that are pissing them off.
The message is the people need to assert their political power to promote the general welfare against the abuses of large financial entities, because they can not be expected to regulate themselves against their own interest. Corporations have no social conscience, people do. Simple. And the place to start is campaign finance reform.
Very welcome. Once you really digest this stuff, I mean, of course you are doing business with one of those companies. If you own a dollar in this world, and have it in an account somewhere, the odds are incredibly good that you are doing business with one of the top 15 or top 150 at least.
As this movement matures and coalesces into functioning entity/entities, the real work and progress begins... The fear induced frenzied right-wing posting of slanderous vids and Faux News propaganda will increase exponentially to match the level of progress and accomplishment of the organization(s). The middle class families and citizens who are unable to actively participate in the demonstrations but support the movement are paying attention to the baseless attacks and will vote accordingly. It is happening on both fronts as we speak...
Well done protestors - now you have something in common with the Nazis. By Richard Alleyne, James Hall and Lucy Burton 8:30PM BST 21 Oct 2011 But the alliance appeared to be faltering yesterday as St Paul’s closed for the first time since the Blitz, claiming it had no choice because of the dangers posed by the growing numbers on its doorstep. With 250 people living in the London churchyard, the “unprecedented” decision, which will cost the church £23,000 a day, was announced by the dean, the Rt Rev Graeme Knowles. Although he supported the protesters’ right to be heard, he said, he now asked that they leave. The decision was met with criticism from both sides. One American tourist, who had planned to go to evensong, said: “I guess you reap what you sow. They should have nipped this in the bud.” Protesters described the decision as a “shame” and voted to ignore the plea. The dean said it had been made after discussions by the cathedral chapter, its governing body. He said that as the camp had grown it posed a risk of fire and harm to thousands of tourists and worshippers who visit Sir Christopher Wren’s 17th century masterpiece every day. “The decision to close St Paul’s Cathedral is unprecedented in modern times,” Mr Knowles told a press conference. “We have done this with a very heavy heart, but it is simply not possible to fulfil our day-to-day obligations to worshippers, visitors and pilgrims.” The last time St Paul’s closed for a significant period was for four days in September 1940 when an unexploded bomb was found near the south-west tower

Oh my god, you are right, this OWS is the same as the Nazi Party!!! Obama is Hitler! Soon they will begin to kill all Christians and wipe you out man! You better run and hide, you've figured it out. And both the Nazi Party and Occupy Wall Street have an "a" in their name!!!! That means there are more similarities. Wow. And if you combine the names together, you get, "Nazi's Occupy Wall Street to Party!" and it's true!

The hits just keep on coming. These looneys are comedy gold. Occupy nut scales artwork, demands cigarette and mayor's resignation Dylan Spoelstra, 24, from Toronto, Canada was brought to Bellevue Hospital for psychiatric evaluation after voluntarily surrendering to the NYPD. His antics ushered in day of several planned Occupy Wall Street marches and rallies which should take place in Manhattan this afternoon -- even though Mayor Bloomberg yesterday warned that police are going to start cracking down on the permit-less events. Spoelstra, who had been ticketed by the NYPD for public urination at 3:14 a.m., told his protestor pals that he was going to climb the bright red artwork known as “Joie de Vivre” on Broadway on the west side of Zuccotti Park. Shortly before 6 a.m., after eyeing the ring of cops standing nearby for several minutes, he dashed across the street and clambered up one of the large vertical beams, prompting an officer to call for back up. “He went up like a ring-tailed lemur,” said Patrick Griese, 41, who held Spoelstra’s jacket for him. The 24-year-old tried to reach the top of the structure but ran out of steam at about 30 feet, witnesses said. He perched on a beam and shouted out a list of his demands, until the NYPD hostage unit was brought in to deal with him. Spoelstra initially demanded that 15 percent of staffers on the FDNY and NYPD be bisexual, witnesses said, but then changed his mind and said he wanted 15 of the police officers on scene to leave. He also told cops he wouldn’t come down until Mayor Bloomberg resigned -- and asked for a cigarette and a jacket to get warm. The NYPD and FDNY sealed off the area around the sculpture and placed several airbags below it in case Spoelstra fell or jumped. Spoelstra was given a special cell phone to talk directly with an NYPD negotiator. The youngster, in a bright orange Baltimore Orioles tee-shirt and black pants, chatted amiably with the ESU officer who was sent up on a cherry picker to coax him down, the NYPD said. “He’s not the sharpest knife in the drawer,” said Griese, who met Spoelstra a few days ago at the rowdy Zuccotti Park encampment that’s now in its second month and causing increasing friction with New Yorkers who live nearby. “Let him stay up there until next year. Who cares?” shouted one fed up woman who spotted Spoelstra as she walked by.
Only a real revolution can turn things around. OWS is not. You accuse them robbing millions of people; they accuse one of you not dressing properly, not speaking gently or not pissing at the right target. Playing peace is dumb.
