I am not the first to note the vast differences between the Wall Street protesters and the tea partiers. To name three: The tea partiers have jobs, showers and a point.
Quote:
The Canadian environmental group behind Occupy Wall Street, Adbusters, has compared the Wall Street "revolutionaries" to America's founding fathers. (Incidentally, those who opposed the American Revolution fled after the war to ... Canada.)
Quote:
Tea partiers didn't block traffic, sleep on sidewalks, wear ski masks, fight with the police or urinate in public. They read the Constitution, made serious policy arguments, and petitioned the government against Obama's unconstitutional big government policies, especially the stimulus bill and Obamacare.
Then they picked up their own trash and quietly went home. Apparently, a lot of them had to be at work in the morning.
Tea partiers have jobs, yet enough time to tour the country in a buses all year round going from town hall to town hall?. I also forgot that anne went out and polled every person protesting asking them if they worked, since of course it's not possible many of them only do this in between working and or school of course. The assumptions right wingers make *and usually are wrong on* is as usual not a surprise.
"Don't blame Wall Street, don't blame the big banks, if you don't have a job and you're not rich, blame yourself!" Cain said. "It is not a person's fault because they succeeded, it is a person's fault if they failed. And so this is why I don't understand these demonstrations and what is it that they're looking for."
SO True!!!!!!
This guy is Obama's worst nightmare. If Cain wins the nomination, Obama will probably drop Biden For Hillary for VP...
Meanwhile, this "movement" is looking more and more like a left wing political movement (The Anti Tea Party).
Not only Are A Few Unions Joining this movement in full force.
So is MoveOn.org
Among those planning to join the clamor on Wednesday are the liberal group MoveOn.org and community organizations like the Working Families Party and United NY. The growing crowd will also include members of the Chinatown Tenants Union and the Transit Workers Union, signaling that a protest that started out small is showing no signs of losing steam. Meanwhile, organizers have called for students at college campuses across the nation to walk out of class in protest at 2 p.m.
“I think they’re capturing a feel of disempowerment, feeling like nobody is listening to them,’’ said Camille Rivera, executive director of United NY. “What do you do when no one is listening to you? You speak up, you take action.’’
[LEFT]
If you were unemployed, who would you point to and say it's their responsibility to give you a job?
Not a vague, blame the rich argument, but as an attempt to solve your problem, to what individual or individuals would you point and say they have failed in their responsibility to provide you a job?
You should hear these guys whine when they lose theirobs and income because the company reorganized or just went broke.
Or their companies went overseas. yep its all the workers fault. Cain is an idiot. Lets hope for American workers sake that cain does not win the nomination.
The more I hear from Cain, the more of an idiot he comes off as being.
Blame the poor or those who lost jobs for their own misfortunes.
If you don't have a job and you're not rich, it's your fault.
Let them eat cake and all that.......
This country has gone straight to hell.
Here we see the sick mentality of the left.
A person comes out and endorses personal responsibility .The left attacks taking personal responsibility.
The country is going to hell because people will not take personal responsibility, its the riches fault, its the poors fault, it the white mans fault, it is the black mans and of course the ultimate blame its is Bushes but never accept personal responisbilty if you are on the left . the left wants to blame others for every problem, blame someone else be a victim, do not take responsibility for your own actions.
part of the country is going to hell because the left wants to blame everyone for thre failure of an individual.
So let one consvertavive black man speak the truth and its his fault.
Many people lived beyond their means.. buying homes they could not afford, running up debt and living as if their was no tomorrow.
Sure . There are many who lost jobs and there is a safety net to give them time to find a job. Yet there are people who juggle three jobs as Herman Cain's father did to make ends meet.
Cain knows hard times and saw his dad going after the american dream and not complaining or looking for a hand out.
