"I cant believe he would need your help for anything"...Comment -
he is one of the few smarts ones there. He and others should join the TEA Party and really focus their energy on the real problem ... the government.Comment -
So, are the tea baggers trying to latch on to this movement ?Comment -

Or you could just continue on in blissful ignorance. You know, just treat the financial crisis like you do the world outside the US, with ignorance
NUKE OUR DEBT, NUKE OUR DEBTComment -
Not sure why these protesters are protesting Wall Street then. The problem is THE GOVERNMENT. This kid has the right idea, just wrong location.
PROTEST IN WASHINGTON D.C. YOU DUMBASSES!Comment -
show me where I said that 99% are dumb. You can't cause I never did. Yes, you are proof there are some in that 99% that aren't the brightest crayon in box. You obviously don't care how dumb you appear because you just keep coming back for more. I have called truce several times but you are just a sucker for punishment. It that one of the side effects of steroid use?Comment -
I got, I got it
first we nuke china, get them out of the way since our current financial idiocy will inevitably result in their rise as the new world super power.
Then we nuke the muslims cause they're all going to hell anyways, that way we can take back our oil.
Then, since we nuked china we can't borrow more money to pay of our debt (which is sound logic, go into more debt to pay off existing debt) so we NUKE THE DEBT.

"he is one of the few smarts ones there. " that was your first sentence in this thread, thats not calling most of the 99% dumb??have you been to one these protest?? Of course not, you live in CR... so stfu and stop speaking about shit you have no clue in...... And keep up with the steroid allegations, my dick gets hard when people think I'm on the juice.Comment -
The funny thing is you just like to argue, as you can see in my reply to the thread, I added a link to a thread I started saying that it was a good speech. He at least has an idea why he is there. That I respect. And because he can do more than add

, use ad hominem and lift weights ... he deserves acknowledgement. Most of them are just clueless as to the reason they are there. You make everything about geography (mine in particular) and little to do intelligence.

He makes alot of statements - most are wrong. 700 bases in 150 countries!
He never worked - only read and studied, like most of these guys they have no practical experience and knowledge. As someone else said - he should be protesting in washington not nyComment -
Yeah like that makes sense. Tea Party was first, and is far more cohesive, less violent, and isn't funded by George Soros and the SEIU. It's all a distraction to try to make people lose focus on how horrible this president is. And if you think he is not a failure please list his accomplishments that don't involve killing people.Comment -
I don't watch or like cable tv. That goes for MSNBC, FOX, ABC, etc. Try another argument. It was pretty well-known even back in 2009 that the Tea Party was an astroturf effort. That was validated when all of the Tea Party just ran as Republicans in the 2010 election. Of course they "changed the political scene." They were just a tool the Republican Party used to reestablish themselves as a small government, fiscally responsible entity following their previous support for the Bush Administration.Comment -
Guy responds with a truthful statement and you reply with that. You republicans are something else.
Do you know where the initial idea for the 99% and occupy movements, it started in a magazine called Adbusters. An actual magazine that is anti-corporate and is not widely available that people read and have to search for. While the Tea Party started with supposedly Rick Santelli on CNBC (corporation) and was funded with all sorts of money to get the word out in various media markets. Have you heard a commercial for the occupy protests?? No, because there is no corporate money backing this movement. I heard commercials on the radio quite often stating to come to blah blah blah this Saturday and we can take back America!!Comment -

Pretty much. People talk about how disorganized OWS is and that is just validation that it is an actual social movement generated by authentic social activism from the bottom.
Real social movement rarely start out organized. Remember the 1950s and 60s Civil Rights Movement? It was disorganized at the beginning as well, with the factions of MLK and Malcolm X preaching two totally different sets of solutions for how to achieve their goals.
The Tea Party, on the other hand, was organized quite well from the very beginning because it was backed by big money and facilitated by well-known political and social figures like Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, Michele Bachmann, and others. It was a movement backed by one of the main political parties of the United States.
The differences are pretty obvious.Comment
