Occupy Wall Street... Screw That! Lets Occupy The Net!

Because they DON'T want the US government bailing out banks with our money, which is the SAME FOOKING MESSAGE AS THE TEA BAGGERS, LESS GOVERNMENT,
So you and VT and Cal are all tea partiers?
Good.
Hey call me when you get smaller government.
While you're at it think of the outrage if McCain had us deeper in Afghanistan and murdered foreign leaders.
BTW I say xxxx the terrorists BUT if a republican had done that you lefties would be crying for a war tribunal.

I've yet to hear a coherent objective from any of these dickheads.
Bullshit. This is how these things start. Hell, this is how the Tea Party started. You get a bunch of pissed off people who are angry at the right things, then of course the media's going to key in on the hippies (as if someone with dreadlocks is useless, and a fatass woman wearing a three-pointed hat with teabags hanging off of it is more patriotic) to marginalize the message. Why would the media do this? Because if the message that these people are trying to send comes together into something coherent, and the corporate media has so much to lose.
Like I said, it's in its infancy, but these hippies have made enough of a presence to get more people involved. This weekend, middle-aged, blue and white collar workers came out to support the protests. It's not just hippies anymore.
That being said, some of the issues are becoming clear. We want unlimited campaign spending to go. Eliminate corporate non-commercial spending. Limit union and non-prof spending. Secondly, corporations and the common people both xxxxed up in the housing bubble collapse. Who got punished? Only the peons. Meanwhile, the banks all got bailouts. xxxx that. They need to be punished too. You shouldn't be allowed to xxxx everyone over and then get a big fat bonus for it.

Seams funny how the media wants to compare the Occupy Wall St. hipsters to the Tea Party. If anyone has listened to the message of some of these cooks you would think they had taken a page out of the movie "Reds". They want social and economical justice? And they want the government to intervene and "use force" to get what they want.
Take the "Tea Party" and what their message is, "Leave us alone".
Now that is a sharp contrast on opinion.
The only American flag present by the Occupy Wall St. crowd and it has been desecrated.
IMO the Occupy Wall St. crowd feels like they have been sold out by Obama and their rent is due.
Look in the background of the picture. It says "end the fed" on a sign. That is one good idea, but I will not hold my breath on that happening anytime soon.

Steve is right here. Those wall st protesters don't want smaller gov, they want the gov to take over the rich, and divvie it out to all of them.
"Them banks got too much money" ???
Do you know (ever?) who got the banks in trouble?
Democrats. They forced the banks to make loans to the poor who ended up
not being able to pay them back. Besides that, somebody who works hard for years, and buys 800 acres in Montana, and becomes rich
after taking all that risk, doing all that work, all those hours a day, all those years.....
and these VT/K dipsheets are angry because that rancher "stole" riches from them, and it isn't "FAIR" for him to have so much money?
Screw those organized, fringe losers of hateful orgs. Arrest em all, and ship em to Siberia. Now, THAT I wouldn't mind paying a bit higher tax for.... @@
Those attacking wall st? They are breaking the law... they are communist/socialist/pervs/freak revolutionaries in one fashion or another,
and they just flat out HATE America, and anyone who is successful in America, out of a sick, twisted spite to the degree of mental
disorder.
It's stupid for VT and K equate the Tea Party with the sixty-ish hippies who want free handouts in a socialist society.
They want free cars, homes, cell phones, careers and wealth. And somewhere along the way, they learned to thrive via
slapping the face of all opportunity - and demand success handed to them because they have been told by marxists that they are "special".
There is NO comparison to the Tea Party, come on, that's really, really stupid. We showed up and became Tea Partiers out of patriotism and rebellion
to higher taxes and the serious concern over spending by Obamao (and Bush, too, but Obamao has compounded it for Coward/Piven and entitlement reasons)

I've yet to hear a coherent objective from any of these dickheads.
That's because you're not listening. You just see people with dreadlocks and think, "Oh, a stoner, what a loser."
LOL Dream on. The corporate mdiacontols itself. And Obama too.
Agreed.
Who are you bitching to?
Did you read what I said, or pissed at somebody else?
I'm mostly pissed at the government/corporations, but as for you pissing me off, it was this comment
"But you want more free shit, I get it.
I'm sure if you dipshits brak a few more windows and shit in the street the mean old brokers will make your lives better."
Remember when the media said that black people at tea party rallies were being called niggers? This is more or less the same, there is probably some truth to it, but you don't equate the entire movement to a few sour apples. I don't want free shit, asshole. My parents are fine, my family is fine, I'm fine. I work 80 god damn hours a week, 60 of them, mind you, conducting biomed research to make life better for all of us. I don't need handouts. I also don't need a bunch of plutocrats being allowed to screw over tens of millions of dumb Americans and getting rewarded for it.

but this is how democrats have been getting elected since the 60's. how do you think obama gete his money
Ha. It's how they ALL get elected. And every four years, you're stuck with the choice of voting for the lesser of the two evils or throwing your vote away to a third candidate. The whole damn system needs to be changed. Hell, I'm even gonna go a little bit Christian on you...

Those in US "poverty" would be among the richest in any real poor country.
This is the dumbest argument I have heard yet. I don't want to get into economics because 1) you would look like an EVEN MORE of an ass when I am done with you and 2) I just don't have the time.

Not to be insulting Kos but I've yet to read anything of yours that might lead me to think you had much knowledge of economics.
The "poor" here are a hell of a lot better off than the poor in actually poor countries.
No I don't have a great deal of pity for someone with cable TV a car and subsidised food medicine and shelter.

You don't want more free shit?
You (if you represent the occupy WS gang) don't wand higher taxes on corporations and the "rich" ?
You don't want them to pay an even higher percentage of the money it takes to provide the services the government provides?
You want the tab for higher education paid from the taxes?
Weren't you discussing the benefits a college student might take advantage of?
And you oppose Obama and his team bailing out the banks right?
And I don't recall you wishing you were allowed to pay more for any of that, right?
PS it's Mayor Bloomberg moaning about the vandalism, not Sean Hannity.

Your comparing the US with other non-industrialized nations? LOL.
The US has the highest poverty rate for children then ANY other industrialized nation. Look it up numb nuts.

I think you're equating US poverty levels with the third world.
Hence you draw a ridiculous conclusion.
But if you seriously think its better in Haiti (or cuba or...) well, you know.

So when you think of poverty what do you envision? Perhaps the pictures that you see on the sally struthers commercials? Children bloated bellies starving in the streets covered with flies?
Because if you do then you might have a point about poverty rates in the United states compared to the rest of the world.
But, as you know, that's not the case.

Welfare is a safety net for those of us who have it the worse (ie, not anyone on this forum). There is no such thing for the 14 million people in the middle class who got xxxxed. Are they freeloaders too?

I guess you could make that argument about Vietnam protesters. To be honest everyone here, I am too exhausted debating mute points. Everyone seems to be stuck in their ways. If you have noticed my views are based on the current events and do change, which is the beauty of being American. Things change and keeping an open mind about society and my fellow Americans seems to be working well for me.
On that point this will be my last post in the Political Forum for a while. I am just to busy to keep up with the close minded nonsense. It's weird though don't you think, the people who are supposed to be free loading liberals here on the board are generally too busy working to check in to Drudge. I guess I now see their point. Later all.

FWIW the point of the Vietnam war protest was to bring home the troops and ending the war.
Not all that puzzling.
But; glad you're working again.
