I think one of the most important things about the protest is that it really is starting a national conversation on just what we want and how to get there, minus the partisan politics. Great post.
So basically he just rattled off numerous left wing talking points, never really answered any questions or stated any real plans and you consider that "schooling"?

Also in the same link they show: "Far from exposing an unseen side of the “Occupy Wall Street’ demonstration, the unaired interview exposes a new side of reporter Griff Jenkins, who just two years ago was quite literally cheerleading protesters as he traveled cross-country with the Koch brothers-funded “Tea Party Express.”..

It is because it isn't really grass roots. Ad Busters and a bunch of George Soros money is behind it. It is designed to get people to urge their reps to pass Obama's "tax the rich" initiatiave which really just taxes the heck out of the middle class and the money is transferred to the rich.
Some of the people out there are totally clueless about what is really going on.
Alex Jones is en route though. I think he wants to try to turn lemons into lemonade and educate the masses as to the fact that the answer isn't more taxes, rather it is to get rid of the Federal Reserve!
Right on time here come the faux republican leeches. Can't run their own party, stand in their shoes, pony up pragmatic plans or wipe their own butt, but every word of grievance that came from the mouths of cities since the meltdown began is now mysteriously "owned" by Alex Jones and Ron Paul?! A sampler of the worms in your daddy party's brains:
I sense a business opportunity coming up for street vendors. A pieing they will go. Let's see if Alex has the pair he advertises without his network handler hiding the camera to flatter him. The Brooklyn boys already have his number.
If we drop the posturing, the desire to be on a particular side as a show of force, we would soon discover that what we all really want for ourselves and our country is universal. I've talked to a right wing individual who admitted after we got down to basics that what we both wanted was the same thing. The difference was the approach and our understanding of the causes. If Fox News just came out and said, this is our bias and if the other networks did the same thing, it might help free us up to discuss the real issues rather than wasting time fighting for a particular "side".
Unfortunately, a lot of entities benefit from having us in two competing camps. To stop this, we need to consciously withdraw our participation by uniting to solve the problem and by rejecting their influence. We would mature as a nation in a single day.

I keep seeing that Koch-brothers funded along with the Tea Party name. Is that much better than the Soros funded Obama campaign? You know, after all that Obama got all that money, supposedly, from small donations but do we know how many of them were passed from Move.on to the useful idiots to become very laundered?
I loved seeing the things on that page of Raw Story. It appeared that all you could see there was how valuable Van Jones is to something. Just far left crap and nothing else.

Great video! That's a risk when FOX asks a non scripted question of someone, they may actually get an honest response. I wonder why 'Fair and Balanced' didn't air it? Hmmm....
If we drop the posturing, the desire to be on a particular side as a show of force, we would soon discover that what we really want is pretty much universal.

Have you heard what Roseanne Barr said to the protesters the other night? She came right out and said that any of those Wall Street people who don't pay up on anything over $100 million should be put in Re-education schools and if then they refused they should have their heads cut off by a guillotine. I think she was roundly cheered for that one and then it turns out that the Simmons rebel is worth over $340 million dollars. I wonder how much Roseanne is worth.
Who is going to do this uniting? A bunch of 20 something people looking just like their teachers did in the 60s or members of the Tea Party. Of course, there are those who think those two groups should unite in these demonstrations. Yep, one group wants to destroy the US government and the other just wants to clean it up.
1: A living wage
2: universal single payer healthcare system.
3: guaranteed income
4: free college education
Also among the rest..several trillion for infrastructure and ecology resotortation, total debt forgiveness for all, open borders, union representation for collective bargaining.
I wonder how many Che Guevara t-shirts, black berets, red flags, and Arafat scarves show up in the pictures.
