I like the guy who was interviewed. He gets that the "Occupy Wall Street" crowd are really no diferent than the Tea Party. Its about citizens standing up on their hind legs and saying "Enough" to corruption, crony capitalism and a government that ignores the citizens. Quite frankly, I would welcome the Tea Party as one party and the Occupy folks as the other. At least we'd get an honest debate with no room for Mitt Romneys, and a clear agreement that there should be an open government where the special interests could pound sand and the voters would make the call.

Your right FQ, perhaps the Tae Party could keep the OWS crowd from defecating on Police Cars and not getting arrested for being douchebags....



Tea Party Arrests :   0 (unless you count the Code Pink, MoveOn.org Plants)....
OWS approaching 1000....

Plus the Tea Party, Packed it in,...and packed it out....Maybe NYC can enjoy the major $$$ for this cleanup.....

Well TW I defer to Stewart on the Daily Show. He did a very funny montage of right wing talking heads like Hannity dissing the Occupy folks and then countered them with praise for the Tea Party for doing or espousing the same things. It was great TV and a good dose of reality. The shot to the jugular? He mentioned that folks like you condemn the ocupy crowd for rude behavior (which I agree is politically stupid and, well, rude). Still he said this, or something close: "The tea Party activists condemn the the Occupy Wallstreet protestors for breaking the law in that they are camping in a public park and littering. Last I checked these were misdemeanors. The Tea Party, the real Tea party from which they take their name? They broke into a private vessel and threw what would be about a million dollars today of cargo over the side. That's two class A felonies. Is anyone else seeing the hypocrisy"?
Just saying

If you have to defer to Jon Stewart,...I rest my case,....

Susan Sarandon, called the Pope a Nazi,...twice,...and supports the OWS crowd....

The similarities with the Tea Party are truly astonishing...

Well, not to support Sarandon who's a twit in general but the Pope was in fact part of the Hitler youth at the age of 14 which was law at the time in Germany.

Due respect to the Catholics on the board, but the Pope WAS a Nazi (a member of the Hitler Youth. I will note that his predecessor John Paul II never joined the Communist party). I would further note that His Holiness has sheltered and honored Cardinal Law and is actively interfering with exploring sex abuse charges in Ireland, so I think Sarandon is right to call a spade a spade here. Benedict, nee Rattzinger can blow me. The man is an asshole of the first order. I say this as a high church episcopalian who considers himself an Anglo-Catholic, but this guy chaps my shorts. I mean no offense, but I won't apologize either.

As far as similarities? The protest is about why the banks get the bailout and we get the bill. Why do the banks and brokers, who knew they were underwriting risky loans, walk away scott free and we get stuck with a trillion in sovereign debt? W proposed this, and BO ran with it. Both parties are to blame and we SHOULD be pissed. If there is some reason we shouldn't be please let me know.

The Pope also deserted his unit and fled back to his home. After being conscripted (that's pretty much drafted),....by the Hitler Youth.

The banks were FORCED by Jimmy Carter by the Fair Housing Act,....later reinforced by Bill Clinton,...where the banks,...KNEW a portion of the loans THEY WERE FORCED to make mostly to minorities and bad neighborhoods,....(can yo say Detroit?) amongst others....were going to default....

They wrote them off...My Father's a retired banker FQ, he saved his bank from the S&L disaster, and was part of the Freddie/Fannie SCAM...and retired young....(Probably hated by the OWS crowd)....and was told the lawsuits would be relentless unless banks big and small made loans to those downtrodden folks...WHO WERE LOSERS>>>>

Oh, and when Bush raised red flags,....he was told by Barney Frank, "All is Well",.....nothing to see here.....

Please,...it's a game.....The underwriters didn;t work for the banks,...they were paper pushers.....who also made it look good on ink...

I work at Denny's and would like to buy a $450,000 house on Riviera Beach,.....It happened....and it wasn't all the banks fault.

It was a Ponzi scheme like Social Security....and we are ALL being played...

That's pretty much a direct quote from my brother who's been managing a mortgage brokerage (he's not the broker, just manages the firm) in Michigan for the last 15 years or so.  Their hands were tied in certain loan applications.
