It's too bad we no longer use dunce caps.
They just believe what Fox tells them. Everything "bad" can be attributed to the "Left" - so easy! Of course Fox is the mouthpiece for Republican Wall Street.
Homer Simpson is the stereotypical oft-time American slob. When he has to think hard, he says "ow" and gets mad at those who made him do it. It really hurts, so have pity!

No.

You actually have to be smart enough to realize something in order to be a hypocrite.

They would be like...."nut-uh.....I bought this iPod from some dude on the street!"

Shouldn't you be smart enough to realize that if somebody uses a device it doesn't mean that they agree that corporations should pay less taxes instead of pushing it onto the falling middle class of America. If you buy something from China does it mean you support communism?

And YOU should be smart enough to realize that most corporations (unless you're a friend of obama) pay a great deal of taxes.

You should also be smart enough to realize that if your compensation comes from capital gains, instead of income, you will pay less in taxes due to the fact that the capital which you are making money on has already been taxed.

But I guess you just like the rhetoric of the left.

Think McFly, think!

What happened to human rights, liberals?
Liberals also forget that it was congressional liberals who pushed the evil banks into making loans to people who had no business carrying mortgages.
Poor Wall Street lenders PUSHED into making bad loans? And you're not kidding either.... No wonder we got a movement.
Q. what constitutes "pushing" a neo-con into doing something?
A. Dangling a dollar bill in front of his nose.
Who turned Steve Jobs into Jesus? Sounds like Fox again.

Please post a video clip of a Tea Party speaker claiming that firefighters, police officers and teachers caused the recession. You can't. It doesn't exist.
Their complaint is PUBLIC EMPLOYEES and their "inflated salaries". The teabaggers are puppets of Republicans and Wall Street who want the demise of the public sector. They won't publicly bash police and fire - that would be bad PR. So you may not find a video. A scam artist will not tell you outright that he's scamming you.

I am sure that there is no other examples of the children of Karl Marx taking over the movement, right?
You really should read previous posts. Socialists WILL join the movement simply because it is to the left of Limbaugh (LOL). Meaning MODERATE.

Prevailing wages are what made the stimulus unworkable and an outright fraud against the American people. If there is anything responsible for the outrageous cost to build infrastructure it's that clause of the ARRA.

Well I won that argument since you were unable to answer:

Why don't liberals care about human rights?

Plus you didn't address the proof I posted that this crisis has liberal not conservative origins.

You also couldn't post ONE video of a Tea Party speaker blaming the crisis on firefighters, cops or teachers.

PLUS you didn't address the picture or video I posted regarding socialist and communist control of Occupy Wall Street.

You lose. I win.

Sigh.

*Sometimes debating liberals is not challenging enough*

Anyway, how does setting up a Haiti-like camp of disease and litter and human waste equate to patriotism? What is the point? Are the CEO's of banks going to look out their windows 75 floors down and shudder with fear that some neo-hippies are in a drum circle? Will they shutdown Goldman Sachs because of the smell emanating up from Zucotti Park?

In the end, nobody in NYC in a suit cares what some hardcore leftys do with camping equipment.
Just more lies....You should hide your head in shame.

They aren't fighting capitalism (i.e., commerce). They are fighting corporatism, corporate socialism, fascism, unfairness, and the lousy job market; moreover, illegal business practices that have repeatedly harmed the citizens of the USA.

Fighting it by camping out and giving money to major corporations like Apple, Starbucks and Verizon?
