It was surely just a matte of time until these kooks turned on each other. The hard core loons pulling the week long duty watch the weekend warriors come in to squat on their squat and all hell breaks loose. Probably upset some uppity college punk with an ipad from mommy and daddy isnt' sharing their internet connection will cause full blown chaos soon.
Ok, here's a good one...and proof of what the Pollsters will do to convince you these nuts are supported by everyday Americans.
AP-GfK Poll: 37 percent of public back protests - Boston.com (http://articles.boston.com/2011-10-21/business/30306818_1_protests-tea-party-politics - broken link)
AP-GfK Poll: 37 percent of public back protests
But wait!
Look what they had to do to get even that low of a number.
Quote:
It involved landline and cellphone interviews with 1,000 adults and had a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 4 percentage points. The poll included 384 respondents who said they were supporters of the Wall Street protests.
So.....they had to PAD the poll with KNOWN OWS supporters and even then, got less of a percentage in support of OWS than they included to pad the poll.
Instead of polling "normal" Americans, probably for fear of what the number would look like, they just had to include a THIRD of respondents that were already supporters. Amazing example of smoke and mirrors.
Food for thought--The New York post is owned by Rupert Murdock (of phone hacking fame, soon to probably go to prison) who stands to lose a whole lot if OWS makes gains with working toward publicly financed campaigns and getting big business out of elections--right now he runs 24 hour free campaigns for corporate candidates on FOX. The NY Post makes FOX news look like NPR. Sometimes it helps to consider the source of your information.

Uh huh. Don't believe their own "words", do you?
FOXFOXFOXFOXFOX!!
Deflection....fail.
How about this lefty rag?
Touches on some of the same issues as the NYP story;
Is the IRS there to collect yet? Or, will OWS get a pass just like Obama's Treas. Sec. tax cheat Timmy Geithner? It would seem OWS is turning into a for profit movement and that protestors are recieving what could be considered taxable benefits. Will OWS be issuing W-2s?
Since this is from NY Post, doubtful there is much veracity to it. But, I can see it might be more difficult with this group. If it were a group of, say 100 Repubs, no problem. 50% to one, 30% to 2 more and the rest strewn about to 97 of them. Simple.
Looks as if the lefties see it this way....ALL of the money to those in control and leave the rest to beg for their simple needs.
Sounds exactly like the liberal policies we've been implementing over the last 8 decades to me.
