They don't even all agree on what exactly they want to accomplish.

No one even knows what they are trying to accomplish, that goes for we viewers, and those involved.

What the mainstream news isn't covering. They want to End The Fed.

I would venture to guess that many of the OWS protesters don't even know what "The Fed" is.

Right. Where the protests against Chrysler and GM? Afterall, they took govt money znd havent paid it all back. Where are the protests against colleges who charge such exorbinant tuition putting our young people in such dire straits?
Where are the protests against the govt that pushed for the bank bailouts?
Where are the protests against Obama who called for the end of lobbying, yet fought releasing the visitor logs to the White House


Face it, Ows is just a democratic party tool. They will not protest against anything that would make democrats or their union supporters look bad.

MSNBC has alove fest going on with OWS. If they cannot find an intelligent OWS supporter, one doesn not exist.

Is there proof to your statement? And what does Wall Street have to do with the Fed?

They want to kick OWS out because they wouldn't let themselves get co-opted by the establishemnt. Like the Tea Party were dumb enough to let themselves get co-opted. If OWS held up pro-Obama signs, they'd still be camped out there.
