If you are not in the top 1%, you are in the bottom 99. (Pelosi, money)

Oh, the things I would like to do to her when she's wearing that flimsy little black dress and talking tough.
She might be the only woman I'd even think about leaving my wife for.
I've read his autobiography and TOOS. Survival of the fittest was a nonscientific metaphor he adopted from Spencer to describe inter-species competition within an environment. When was the last time you picked up his writings?
[SIZE=2]"In the struggle for survival, the fittest win out at the expense of their rivals because they succeed in adapting themselves best to their environment." -Charles Darwin.
[/SIZE][SIZE=2]Perhaps he wasn't the originator of the phrase, but he did quote it.
The wall streeters are protesting at the wrong address. They should be in front of congress and the White House. They're the ones handing the banks all these piles of money. It will be interesting to see what happens with BOA. It appears they have been singled out as the "fall guy" in all these fee raising stories I'm reading. Under the bus they go to show us all how Obama deals with evil bankers I'm sure coming soon. After 18 holes of course!
I agree on this one, but I would submit that they are missing the mark by going to the White House/Capitol. They need to go protest on K Street. That's where the bagmen for these bought and paid for politicians hand out the loot to sell out the American people. Government has no business dealing with lobbyist. It just corrupts them from their primary responsibility to the American people.
She's using the same twisted logic the left used to try to demonize the tea party. Pick the most extreme and ignorant and hold them up as representative of all.
It is a movement. Just like all movements, the more successful it becomes, the more groups will co opt it. Just like all the groups that surrounded the Tea Party. Businesses sending bus loads of employees, etc. Political organizers using the Tea Party to fund raise. Where was that Tea Party meeting that had to be canceled due to profiteering? Now, there are several different Tea Party groups.
Just because someone agrees with the message and comes on board, does not mean the movement agrees with the ones who latched on.
I support their right to prtest byt not to volate the laws like blocking people use of bridges. I saw nothig wronf for example with the Tea party protest that were peaceful. its when they start to have to reort to umlawful means they lose my support in protest as afr as right. the cause;I reallt can;t tell otehr tha they are disatifyied with their life position what they want and i thniits varies form waht i heard. The blame one groupd is stuipd IMO.
I'm sorry, but the "top 1%" did NOTHING to anyone to make them "indentured serfs". Those of us with debt (and I include myself in this) did it to ourselves! No one put a gun to our heads to take on debt that we couldn't pay back. Myself, I am working on getting that debt paid off. About every 4-6 months I pay one of my credit cards off. these are cards that weren't more than $750 to begin with that when I got a pay cut I couldn't afford to pay the minimums anymore. Now the cards are over 2k. Now that I have my own business that is growing, slowly, I am working on paying off all my debt. But it's not going to happen over night, it'll will take me years to pay off my credit cards, medical bills, and student loans... but thats MY RESPONSIBILITY, no one elses!
It's not the top 1% who are creating "endentured serfs" or the class warfare. YOU and the other whiney brats on that website are doing it to yourselves and trying to make the rest of us do it too. Sorry, but I take full responsibility for my own decisions and debts. I'm pulling myself out of those problems, and really anyone who wanted to could as well!
If YOU are the 99%, then so am I, and I denounce and condemn your actions!
I swear i'd buy you a beer if I could! This is perfection!
Keep up the hard work. It will pay off, i'm confident!
Hermine Cain has the credentials to say this. He started out poor and more disadvantaged than most of these protesters.
And at the same time forgot where he came from
