Occupy protesters march on DNC

I doubt if the majority of them are intelligent enough for any ideologies to be applicable to them.

No - don't play with my quote....I said it - they aren't even worth of a shift key or spelling correction and were is fine how it was - who gives a ****?

"i was under the impression that htey were a mix of ideologies. . . not a singular one."

:roll:
 
Of course there is no 'question'. Did you happen to notice with whom they were marching and protesting? Unions. They will rant and holler and bleat and stink...but they will all politely file in and vote democrat.
 
Banker bailouts, QE 1, QE 2, Money Laundering. Mortgage Fraud, Interest Swaps Based on Rigged Libor Rates, Goldman skating on their sh**** deals and Corzine skating after making 1 billion dollars disappear are some of the items from the past few years. They also really pushed a tax repatriation holiday which did get killed for now. All this going on and people critique them for their clothing and call them stupid. The last thing I would call people protesting these things is stupid but I guess everyone has their own idea about what stupid is.
 
Wow what bunch of nuts lol

It's amazing how composed those police officers are to such stupidity.

Kinda like the tea party is a bunch of racists because I saw a video of tea partiers being racist.
 
Those ungrateful little twits, how dare they question the Messiah. :lol:

Yeah, it's almost like the conservative perception of OWS is wildly inaccurate or something.
 
I agree...

the only fun thing the occupados did at the RNC... they have since topped it at the DNC...



Is it possible to arrest someoen for being just too much of an idiot? I mean seriously these guys had to be either high or drunk or both, Exactly what were they trying to do other than embarass themselves? This isn't about occupy or tea party this is just dumb assery!
 
I'm very surprised by the relatively small size of the Occupy protests at the DNC. They truly have fizzled.

I am surprized honestlyt after the huddle, that when they jumped at the officers, at least one of them didnt get a baton.
 
Wow what bunch of nuts lol

After watching this video and others like it from the Occupy movement no wonder they aren't taken seriously. They look and act like 21st century hippies, e. g. the one with the off color Santa Clause hat.

How could anyone possibly take them seriously?
 
The occupy movement started out attacking Republicans and big business so the Dem's tried to jump on the bandwagon hoping they were going to be an answer to the tea party. This blew up in their faces when all the crime, violence and destruction took over the movement and now it is coming back to bite them in the ass a second time. Nobody ever said the Dem's controlled the occupy movement only that they allied with them in a desperate attempt to find some grass roots movement that hated conservatives and supported liberal Democrats.
 
"It's not working . . . I don't understand . . ."

HAHAHA ROFL!!
 
You know that the Occupy movement is an actual threat to power, since the media is going OUT of its way to try and dissmiss them or demonize them ....

You know the Tea Party is not a threat to power since the media way overstates them and praises them and the rich support them.

Thats why I love it when libertarians say "no the rich actually would suffer from libertarian policies?" yeah then why are they always supporting you, the fact is the rich will get the libertarian policies that THEY want, but not the ones that don't support them, I don't see many libertarians trying to actively fight against corporate personhood for example.

But the fact that Occupiers are being demonized, assaulted, dismissed, arrested and so on, means that we are doing something right.

I suppose that may be true, if the purpose of the Occutard movement is to be demonized, assaulted, dismissed, arrested and so on. If that is their purpose, then they are indeed succeeding.
 
The purpose is to challenge the Corporate control over the government ... thats been clear to anyone from the begining ....

But it just goes to show that the Occupy movement is actually challenging power .... the Tea party movement is not.

Just how is acting like a complete moron challenging power? I know these idiots are not the spokespeaople of all the occupy mouvement but really they aren't helping.
 
Occupy Protesters? I didn't realize they were still active or even relevant anymore.
 
How relevant do you think they ever really were? “Not at all” seems like the most plausible answer.

They were at least on the news for a while. I haven't really seen anything about them on the news lately though. I feel kind of ambivalent about them. I can agree with some of the things they were talking about, I thought they went about things the wrong way and targeted only one part of the problem.

They were the only ones bringing up the fact that corporations are running the government and they were doing so by occupying public space ... something which if you know history is very scary to the ruling classes.

BTW, if they wern't challenging power you would'nt see this type of response.
