Why The Occupy Anniversary on Sept. 17th Matters

Vic_Romano
From Lee Camp's "Moment of Clarity"

"A year ago Occupy Wall Street burst onto the scene, changing the conversations going on around this country and perhaps the world. Has it had some defeats, some hurdles, some difficulties? Sure. But who honestly thought it wouldn't? This war isn't over."

      He lied blatantly to get elected. That is well documented. Now he continues to lie. It will end soon.
      Yes. The case was closed today by Judge Juan B. Colas. You lost.
      You keep talking about the founding fathers but you keep running afoul of their Constitution, don't you. Guess what? It was written precisely to protect good American citizens from the likes of you and Walker.
      Case closed.
      Wear black.

      Pardon my French but that's a load of crap, and you know it! There are 3 words that have basically the same sound -- there: as "See that squirrel on the fence over there?" Their: as "Their bright red Mazda Miata is in the garage." Hint: 'their' connotes possession. And finally there is the contraction of they are, or they're: as "They're planning to go out to dinner tonight." It would be wise for you to pick something other than 'there, their, or they're' to accuse me of mistyping as I truly NEVER get those wrong. But then maybe the inhabitants on Fantasy Island use those 3 words in a different way than those of us who believe in reality.

      I never pointed to any errors of grammar or spelling errors or yours or others. You used "their" and "there" incorrectly several times, and I only point it out to mention that I could have but did not - and that was because you started attacking my grammar or spelling or something. Persnickety. Did I spell that right?

      "It was about liberty and fiscal responsibility... "
      That is a lie. He is a criminal of electron fraud just as in every other red state. Criminals all. Walker is no different. Stealing from the public workers to give it to his corporate capitalist supporters so they make more money to put in his pocket. The people's hard earned money in the corporate lover's pocket.
      He is a thief, the money and the election. They will suffer him for now. He will serve his time and be discarded. Your own party will destroy him when his criminal activities are brought to light.
      Just a matter of time.

      The brave Governor Walker saved the state about $1 BILLION. The taxpayers knew it and voted him in. Get over it. The people voted. The people wanted GOVERNOR Walker to stay in, and that was the first time a governor survived a recall (I told you that FIVE times already).

      That is a lie by Walker and forwarded ignorantly by you. He actually gave away way $150,000,000 to corporations as payback for helping his elections. The rest of his "savings" are in the form of reneging on statutory obligations to public service workers, none of which has taken effect and and all of which will not get through the courts, both in Wisconsin and Federal. You've got Constitutional problems there, bub.
      Funny how you self-proclaimed "patriots" always find yourselves running afoul of the founding fathers, isn't it.?

      And how do their crimes (mostly being singled by cops for talking back) compare to the heinous crimes committed by fraudulent bankers? How did your investments do in 2008 Mishima? Can you blame that on the Occupy movement? Who hurt you more personally? Occupy or bank criminals?

      How about you stick to being an armchair QB with football? You clearly don't know squat about the Occupy movement.

      Well, just because some bankers supposedly committed crimes, it does not mean that OWSers did not. And it appears that you believe that BOTH are criminals. That concession is great, seeing you recognize the criminality of the OWSers.

      Distortion.

      I saw Rachel Maddow do it on TV, and I was astonished that the freakin' Liberals most likely believed her deceit.

      Comrade Madcow referred to specific numbers: Before the fall of the Dow, it was around 14,000. It suddenly dropped, within only a few months, to under 7,000.

      This distorter and dissembler said that people who had their money in stocks - many retired people - lost half of their savings.

      Let's see how you do with that: Do you see the distortion and how anyone who simply took her at her word was wilfully misled? I doubt you will respond, of course.

      The Maddow assessment is actually correct. Yours is the distortion. Sorry. That's just the facts. We've been through this kind of thing before. You don't do well with numbers, remember?

      It is a complete distortion to say that when the Dow dropped below 7,000, those who invested in the stock market lost half of their investment. It is deceitful and a lie.

      Think about the math. Let me know first if you actually believe that statement by Maddow was accurate. Not the 7,000 is half of 14,000, but that those who invested in the stock market lost about half of their savings. (I am making the assumption, of course, that the Dow is representing, on average, the overall value of the stocks that people held.)

      Tell me if you believe that Rachel's declaration was valid or not, please.

      And you obviously have no idea what socialism is. None at all.

      Word hint: Focus on this term, because it is essential unless one is a brain-washed, brain-ossified Leftist ideologue: "Means of production." Without an understanding of that in relation to your all-loving and munificent Socialism, one cannot possibly have a rational discussion, even at an elementary level.

      Never-Never Land. They ain't never-never gonna win this election. Our friend has already mentioned that they intend to focus on the Congressional elections. Obviously the presidency is lost.
      Their problem is that people like Akin have hurt Romney. In turn, Romney/Ryan hurts the other races. Circular firing squad.
      Our friend here persistently makes the case against his own interests. Amazing.

      Actually, just a desperate effort of the Wacko-Right to save itself. This is it for your guys, my friend. You are no longer even allowed in public. You cower in fear of the daylight. Your party has already abandoned you after what you've done to your presidential candidate.
      Karl Rove actually wants to KILL your Missouri Tea Party candidate. Can you imagine that? Your own party hates you so much they actually wish your candidate dead? How does it feel to be that despised? Are your doors well secured?

Its the Occutards that do not give back, they merely call for anarchy and create a mess. IF they had a job they would not be pooping in the street.
