Thank you. I didn't see the Tea Party go anywhere beyond some trailer parks (joking), but OWS went global because it really is a movement by and for the majority of people.
There was a political cartoon this week in the newspaper comparing TP to OWS. It was all wrong. It was meant to paint both of them as opposites, which they're not. The OWS was described as anti-capitalist, which it is not. Everything the right thinks OWS is is wrong because the right typically (not always, but typically) can't think in anything other than black and white. If they don't support something, it MUST be the exact opposite and they go on and on ascribing all kinds of characteristics to it that have no basis in reality.
I saw the cartoon you're referring to. I thought it was dead on. I bet if one of us posted it on CD you'd have a hard time defending what you consider to be untruths.

Better edit that post and change it to a hyperlink as I'm sure one of the offended OWS supports will be screaming to the powers that be to have it removed.
How can the Tea Party claim to want less Government when they are in bed with Republicans and Corporations? OWS is not affiliated with ANY political party because we have realized that THE SYSTEM is corrupted. I would be embarassed to be a pawn for the elites.
Being manipulated like that and not realizing it, sad.
There is a hidden branch of power that is calling the shots and we are stupid for not noticing the pattern earlier of the endless and expensive wars, the overstatement of the threat of terror, the corrupt and secretive Federal Reserve, corporations and lobbyists having major influence over politicians, Federal Government controlling the economy/industries instead of letting them grow organically, a Federal Government that is more powerful, freedom-infringing and wasteful every day.
And yet some still regurgitate the message that their manipulators want them to believe. Sad.

Alex Jones is on the phone. He asked me to tell you to stop infringing his copyrights.

Have no idea who that is, tell him to hang up.
Edit: OK looked him up, I have read Infowars and Prisonplanet before, didn't know he owned them. He seems a little to kooky although I feel some of his conspiracies should be looked into more by the general public. I get my information from RT.com, the most trustworthy Media outlet America has right now, and it's based in Russia.

A large number of OWS participants are anti-capitalist. The rest don't know why they are there.
