Occupy wall street and other locations

[Anonymous]

What do you think about occupy wall street? Do you think it says something about our society? Do you think there is some merit in the idea that the middle class is shrinking and being squeezed? If you don't support it, do you think anything positive will come of it?

I think the fact that a Republican group put together an 850,000 budget for a campaign to undermine the movement strongly suggests that it has power.

I think that a Republican lobbying firm trolling for business with a memo means nothing.

If the homeless can't occupy a park then these people shouldn't.

I think those who think this can be a repeat of the peaceful demonstrations of yesteryear 1960s are wrong and will be harshly dealt with. I don't think there will be a second generation of Baby Boomers or gold rush days of the 1980s for most of the unhappy people. Get used to working hard and barely scraping by.

Peaceful? Bloody Sunday; Bull Connor; fire hoses and police dogs; Medgar Evers; Goodman, Chaney, Schwerner; MLK; JFK; RFK; Malcolm?????

When it's Boehner's ex staffers, I think it does.

I think that is making a big leap. Have you ever left a job? Did you still work "for" your prior employer after you left the job?

Have YOU ever been a lobbyist who does opposition research?

Get real folks. Lobbyists do opposition research all of the time. Do you honestly think that the left isn't out there trying to dig up dirt on the right, or is that different in your mind. It is the way of the world.

Have you ever heard of the DNC? Both sides do it. Both sides employ former staffers.
