Maybe he should hold hearing on how these people are radicalizing our hippies.

Why would that Mr. King? Are you taking any donations from the big money boys? 

It’s pretty obvious what these brats are protesting. They paid top dollar for completely useless degrees, and now they’re stomping their feet on the ground like little children, yelling at people who aren’t responsible for their stupid decisions, and hoping Daddy Government will do something about it.

Unfortunately for them — actually, fortunately for them — Daddy Government has to ask Mommy Congress for the credit card, and that ain’t happening anytime soon.

That’s a rather oversimplification of what people are going through in tough economic times.

He can not get a cut of the Money Obama your hero is sucking up all the cash as he already has been bought and paid for.Obama does not share his bribe money.

Pretty accurate just the same.

well thank goodness these little whiney babies with a high dollar (essentially useless) college degree and no job…won’t be getting any mortgage or automobile loan…and I highly suspect mommy and daddy won’t be bailing out the “over educated spawn” since they are to continue to spend money on the whiney babies medical insurance until 26…

hee hee heeeee

the widdle whiney babies are so screwed…by one of their own…they can’t see how the LIFE of Marxism…doesn’t compliment real life…

I wonder if they think giving the Hopey Changey clown another 4 years will help or hurt their cause????

Some of them are people who have hit tough times and feel that they’re entitled to government force to help them rather than asking their family or the community for help. You tend to feel more sympathetic for people who ASK for help rather than demanding it like this breed of people.

In addition, some of the people are paid, as the Daily Caller exposed. Too bad the guy paying the people didn’t speak Spanish and the DC reporter did. And as Greg Gutfeld pointed out the obvious irony here, it truly is hilarious that people are being paid to protest against capitalism.

But for the most part, along with a nudge from a foreign communist organization, this protest was started by Obama college supporters who were coddled in institutions for four years and then found the real world isn’t so accommodating. So being the mindless minions that they are, they bitched at Wall Street while their college professors cashed their huge checks from their tenure-protected jobs.

Peter King is afraid.  Good.  Ths sonuvabitch ought to be run out of town as part of the problem and no part of the solution.  It’s because of Peter King and people like him this country is in the shape it is in.  Marie Antoninette at least had the courtesy to make a suggestion, “Let them eat cake.”  Peter King and his slimy ilk command, “Shut up and eat your cake.” And the 1 percenters are saying, “Shut while we eat your cake.”  Be afraid, Peter King.  You stacked the deck against Americans and we’re supposed to sit quiet and like it? No chance.

Republicans are scared that the people are finally riseing up against these banks that wrecked the economy and got bailed out.   Its funny that when the fake ass tea party rose up they were all for them, but when a real movement rises up they are scared sh*tless

They specialize in oversimplification. And idiocy.

“Get the money out of politics! And give it to the government!”

How stupid can a person be? Zombie stupid.

I’m embarrassed for them.

Go to the numerous OWS and We Are The 99% (pretty presumptuous of those punks) websites and you’ll see the vast majority are kids out of college whining about massive debt and no jobs. There are jobs, just not ones they’re qualified for since they majored in completely useless fields.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QZlp3eGMNI

You just did you dumbass!

These OWS people are a mob and they already did a great job discrediting themselves this weekend. I expect many mainstream Democrats, including Obama, to distance themselves from the OWS mob by this week. They were trying to storm the Air & Space museum yesterday, see below:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wc9OSFLnyUI&feature=share

http://wearethe99percent.tumblr.com/

4/5ths of the stories discuss being burdened with student debt.

I guess their solution is to nationalize the corporations and redistribute the wealth?

Oh Please! Everyone on BOTH sides calm down, these kids are no different that us at that age, the’re Horny, looking for free beer, and looking for girls. The idiots that are paying some of them and setting this up are doing it for their own political purpose and using these kids area disgrace, Yes, But as for the kids? Their Kids.

None of these people live in Peter King’s district. What does he have to be afraid of? His district consistently votes Republican too, so he can say whatever the hell he feels like about these people with little consequence.

He should be worried. The movement, just like the Tea Party at it’s outset  was not able to present a unified message, but it has already spread across the nation, much like the protests in my war, Vietnam,  will grow, become more unified and the message will become to quite powerful. People are fed up with being manipulated by Wall street and the Banks. You, just like the old guard in the 60′s discounted us but in the end we were victorious. And if you actually paid any attention it is no longer just young people.I went to war for my country ocne and I will do it again.

For those who truly want jobs for every American let us join together in the hope that Occupy Wall Street will be hugely successful and put unprecedented pressure on Obama to get out of the way and let our free market cure his sick (and tired) economy.

“Republicans are scared that the people are finally riseing up against these banks that wrecked the economy and got bailed out.”

Why? We have guns. There’s a reason this isn’t London, people can protect themselves if things get out of hand. Plus, they can also buy something at McDonalds and use the bathrooms, which is what they have to do since they didn’t really think this through.

“Its funny that when the fake ass tea party rose up they were all for
them, but when a real movement rises up they are scared sh*tless”

Yeah, it was so fake that it completely swung the balance of power in the opposite direction. How’s all that “social justice” legislation coming?

Really, all we need to do is get all the professors, especially those who fully support this movement, to work for free.

Surely, they’re not going to have a problem with their labor going to benefit others. Information should be free, so why pay somebody six figures to pass it along? 

It was arrogant people like who discredited the hippies in the 60′s but now they are in their 60′s and have seen what Wall street has done to their retirements. He who laughs last laughs best and I can’t wait for my laugh.

You mad, bro?

You, just like the old guard in the 60′s discounted us but in the end we were victorious.

So, that was all about getting Nixon elected?

Heh.

progress comes from progressives DUH
not reactionaries like the tbags

Considering that the T.E.A. Party movement was founded on it’s acronym — Taxed Enough Already — saying that the Tea Party didn’t have a unified message from the outset is a poor excuse for revisionist history.

Old guard? I’m friggin’ 28, old timer. I’m not for privilege and oppression like you and the OWS people. I’m for freedom and free markets.

The hilarious thing is that Barack Obama received more donations from Wall Street banks than all of the other candidates combined, and NONE of these people would ever consider not voting for Obama. And it’s always going to be that way since Socialism is specifically designed to created aristocracies in capitalist societies. The rich get rich and then protect their wealth by making sure no one else can get as rich as they are.

Have you seen any free beer at the protest? A beer in manhattan is 7$ no one is giving away free beer at those prices.

I’d hope so. But since these kids paid $100K for Basket Weaving degrees while positions for highly skilled, high demand jobs is going to foreign nationals, I wouldn’t count on it.

It’s funny that unemployment for people with a higher education is much, much lower than the national average. And I always wondered who were these people with higher educations that didn’t have jobs. Well luckily for me they are started gathering in one place so we could find them :-)

What are you babbling about? What does-Nixon have to do with the topic?

Good idea Danielson…but some how I don’t think the Congressman is much into a hearing…or listening for that matter.

Let’s get this straight…when Tea Party types protest it is considered an expression of their rights under free speech…when the 99 percent protesters do so it is some sort of subversive movement undeserving of any legitimacy…they’ve no right to political (and don’t kid yourselves all of this is political) expression?

So…to paraphrase, “Some protesters are MORE equal than others,” is that it? Expressing an opinion that differs to the Congressman’s is also “anti-American”? I’m glad he acknowledges he old enough to remember when American citizens changed policy by stating their opinions (leftist wackos or not) AS IS THEIR RIGHT UNDER OUR CONSTITUTION. What I find unfortunate is that he apparently chooses not to remember past political figures…say Joseph McCarthy for example…who espoused a similar idea that any form of dissent from their view of how both capitalism and government should work equated to “Un-American” activities.

Instead of trying to silence the protesters, how about we all talk about what they are saying…agree or disagree…fine…but silencing or “de-legitimizing” these folks does nothing to promote democracy. I can see no indication that he Congressman has visited the 99 percent website, and he appears to dismiss them out of hand. To think is not a crime…to question is not a crime…merely accepting ANY media, individual, or political party’s view without taking the time do either of these things might not be a crime…but it is not terribly productive either.

http://the53.tumblr.com/

great site spend a few minutes there…reminds us that the 99% are a FAKE group…

*LOL* Yeah, those people didn’t know they were going to be on YouTube or anything.

These morons act like pepper spray is friggin’ mustard gas. I guess they didn’t even really earn their theater degrees, huh.

You know that you’re having an effect when those high paid congressmen start calling you names.

The wealthy have always accused those less wealthy of being the problem, it is a lie that can no longer hold itself together.

They call themselves wealth creators, but they forget to mention they are only interested in their own wealth, giving others an income is always a by-product of their own greed.

They tell you that if their taxes are raised they will stop creating wealth, it is an empty threat as there are millions of us who will fill their shoes and happily pay a higher tax rate for being allowed to profit from our society.

Anarchists want smaller governments and less control, that is exactly what the right wing have been campaigning for and yet the right wing has the gall to accuse others of being anarchists.

Don’t believe the hype, all that the Occupy Wall Street protesters really want is for fairness in our society.

That’s not a source. Show me a source listing what these kids majored in so that you can verify that you’re not simply making this up as you go along.

,Both your youthful exuberance and naivety are showing. Keep your knickers on boy.

We’re just mocking them for their shallow, selfish principles.

apparently you are too slow to put Nixon and 60s together…

hmmmmm does

Over-educated Whiney Squatters?

Get a job.

are you 14 YO?
what are you babbling about?

So, let’s get this straight, Tea Partiers:   It’s “weird” and “loony” when liberals protest with music, drums, signs, etc…….but when a bunch of 70 year olds dress up in powdered wigs and tricorn hats, that’s normal??

The government is run by greedy corporations, so we need more greedy government to run the corporations. Wow. Just what were thier anti-American professors thinking?

So according to many Congressional Republicans, when common folks peacefully protest en masse against unbridled greed by Wall Street and the banking industry, it’s just an angry mob of unAmerican thugs.

But when corporate-sponsored tea party folks peacefully protest outside the White House (albeit carrying signs promoting bigotry and hatred or calling for violence), it’s the purest form of patriotism in action.

Got it.

Most of them specifically don’t list their majors because they’re embarrassingly useless. Most of them just say, “I have a college degree” or “I have a masters or PhD”. From the numerous ones I’ve seen, I haven’t seen any chemical engineers in there. Know why? Because it’s the friggin’ highest paying, highest demand degree outta college.

Peter Thiel was right, this is an education bubble.

Well, they have the support of Keith Olbermann, Michael Moore, and Hugo Chavez.

Its a double standard. The media is so far left it isn’t even funny. When they Tea Party protested the government the media called them terrorists who want to destroy America. They called them racist. They made them out to look like right wing wackos. Then these protest happen and the media glorifies them. The media likes them because they support their agenda of a more socialist style government. The main reason the movement is growing is because of the media coverage hyping the protests. These protesters think that by giving the government more power, and more money they will make everything better. They believe the best way to get rid of poverty is to take money from one group and hand it out to the less fortunate. That runs opposite to the American Dream and ideals that made this country great. We were founded on the premise of an old parable. “You can give a man a fish and feed him for a day, or you can teach a man to fish and feed him for a lifetime.” This movement supports the first statement, while the Tea Party supports the second part. 

They don’t teach pepper spray in Women’s Studies.

Are you some 15 year old using a library computer? Useless degrees, mommy and daddy, over educated spawn, whiny (correct spelling) babies, Marxism, Hopey Changey? Your half hour is up so now it’s time to go home and do your homework.

Education is only part of the problem. When the downturn happened many older workers were unable to retire because their retirement funds were wiped out by market losses. Now companies are stuck with an aging work force who is not ready to retire. The cycle of retiring workers replaced by younger, cheaper workers is broken. 

Tea Party folks speak their piece and go home. They don’t conduct a lifestyle of being a full time pain in the ass and trying to hinder other citizens from going about their business. Nor do they whine for handouts.

The wealthy have always accused those less wealthy of being the problem, it is a lie that can no longer hold itself together.

If you really have a problem with a group of people who have watched for a decade or more, easily, a million or more people from every walk of life lose their jobs to organizations who have amazing control, either directly or indirectly, of the country’s wealth, protest the fact that the were given OUR tax dollars to bail them out of their own greed related errors, YOU HAVE SERIOUS PERSONAL ISSUES THAT HAVE YOU polarized even in the view of harsh reality.
This is not a political protest of red or blue! This is we the people!! You claim these people (a very very mixed group of people) want money from the government. Well, the government had no issue spending the money of the people (remember EVERY LEGALLY EMPLOYED American pays the government a tax.

You say these people just want the government to give them money? Yes, perhaps they do. Maybe the trillions of dollars could have been tossed at corporations who have already laid off tens og thousands so that they can restrengthen and keep their employees.. Who knows! The bottom line is something went really wrong and a lot of you want to stabpnd on “sides” that seem steeped in issues that are much more juvenile than one would expect from adults.

And as a side note: who raised the price of tuition for these idiots anyway??? Did corporations raise tuition, or did government subsidies raise tuition? Did government raise tuition in other ways?

Over the last two decades, colleges and universities
doubled their full-time support staff while enrollment increased only 40
percent, according to a new analysis of government data by the Center
for College Affordability and Productivity, a nonprofit research center.During
the same period, the staff of full-time instructors, or equivalent
personnel, rose about 50 percent, while the number of managers increased
slightly more than 50 percent.
Support staff! And what kind of work are they doing?
The
growth in support staff included some jobs that did not exist 20 years
ago, like environmental sustainability officers and a broad array of
information technology workers. The support staff category includes many
different jobs, like residential-life staff, admissions and recruitment
officers, fund-raisers, loan counselors, and all the back-office staff
positions responsible for complying with the new regulations and
reporting requirements colleges face.

 I couldn’t make it through this tirade. I got as far as this part, “This is we the people!!”, and realized you were full of it.

I’m a capitalist. Most  Americans are capitalists (polling will tell you that btw). These protests do not represent us.

So don’t try to tell us otherwise – we’re not buying what you’re selling, er, shoveling.

So it’s “selfish” for people to demand that Wall Street be held accountable for the damage and destruction that they caused? How selfish indeed!

And if they’d kept their money in the high-risk investments that they shouldn’t have had money in in the first place, they would’ve covered their losses. The problem is that many of them didn’t save enough for retirement in the first place and started saving way too late.

Plus your claim is also fallacious. An older workforce doesn’t cause younger workers to be displaced. Minimum wage laws cause younger workers to be displaced. That’s why so many young people aren’t employed, because business owners don’t want to pay them $7.50 an hour — that money to them is better spend on a skilled worker.

So,you’re unemployed?

It would take me forever to cite every single instance, lets just take one of the most recent…

*LOL* When did I ever say I was a Tea Partier? I have several problems with them. They’re not calling for the dismantling of the welfare entitlement state like I am, and most politicians are pussies who won’t call for it either. Rick Perry got close but then abandoned that comment like a pregnant mistress.

The OWS principles are shallow and selfish regardless. The vast majority of them are entitled brats who think because they got a degree in liberal arts that they somehow deserve a job and for their debt to be forgiven. Tough shit, welcome to the real world. They should’ve prepared for it four years earlier like most responsible people do.

Is it me or does Rep. Peter King sound worried??

The protester’s message is quite clear!!

The top 1% have more than 50% of the wealth in this country… and the protesters don’t think that’s how a democracy should work!!

The top 1-5% of the wealthy in this country are the minority!! They should definitely fear the bottom 90%… just like Rep. Kings seems to fear them!!

They didn’t cause any damage and destruction. They got free money from Barack Obama and a Democrat Congress.

Their problems have nothing to do with Wall Street and everything to do with themselves. And if they wanted to stop Wall Streets influence, then they’d stop supporting Progressives who get boatloads of cash from them.

Corporations give politicians money so politicians will promote corporate interests in Washington. Joe Sixpack does nothing to bankroll the candidacy of politicians, so they lie well enough to get Joe Sixpack to vote for them. Then the elected politicians take corporate money and, in exchange, protect corporate interests.

I can’t be the only one that wants to vomit when these corporate teat milkers try to equate capitalism with Freedom or corporations with freedom. The old “corporations are peolple” line is what will kill Mitts chances next fall. Corporations are “job creators” by necessity only. Their 3 main objectives are to run forever, maximize profits at all expense and avoid liability for those who run them. That’s why profitable companies lay people off. That’s why banks have no shame about greed and paying bonuses with bail out money. That’s why they pourchase hacks like king and his cronies for a few pieces of silver and damn the rest of us. We are 11 years into class warfare and are just waking up to the fact.

I do have a problem with our country’s national socialist policies.

These people don’t. They have issues with massive student loan debt and useless degrees they overpaid for. They created their own damn problems, and like the spoiled children they are they’re blaming someone else for their problems. Wall Street.

“This is not a political protest of red or blue!”

Yes it is. They are Barack Obama supports. They apparently have a big problem with Wall Street’s money, just not when it goes in Barack Obama’s pocket. How principled of them.

“You claim these people (a very very mixed group of people)”

They’re mostly white. Hey, they have something in common with the Tea Party!

“HOWEVER, the bank/wall street theft of government (tax dollars) money has yet to be discussed and investigated.”

First you say it was given to them, now you say they stole it?

Well if you weren’t a shit-for-brains, you would’ve know long ago the TARP was FORCED on banks that didn’t even want it nor needed it by being threatened to lose access to the Fed discount window. Now why would they do that?

It was pretty clear what the Progressives in Congress were up to when these banks that for the most part didn’t even need the money paid it back. Instead of PAYING BACK THE DEBT, they kept it in a slush fund.

That’s all TARP was — a Democrat slush fund. Exactly ZERO DOLLARS paid back from TARP have been applied to the nation’s debt. Instead, they spend it on other projects.

You must not work at all.

What truly amazes me is how this terrorist sympathizer and enabler got any legitimacy. What a country!

Two out of the three are gone. They had personal problems sure, but tax cheating and lying to congress, supporters, the media, lying when they are caught and still being supported by their sheep for doing so isn’t a republican problem. What’s your excuse for that?

Now I always thought Georgey boy was incompetent but did he actually set up a Dem slush fund?Why would he do that?

99% based on what? More mindless prattle.

Occupy DC isn’t part of occupy WS? Interesting. They carry the same disjointed message…The same signs…They aren’t asking for lower taxes…They are getting arrested…they don’t have funny tri-cornered hats…If it sounds like a duck…

There is no such word as “Whiney”, which you often use. Guess that makes you a whiner.

What do you think of all the video with avowed communists in the OWS ranks? The people who come right out and proclaim communism and socialism to be better than the free market, and capitalism? Just curious.

Well you did know that those ATM’s fix themselves, right? And they appear magically on the bank premises…Oh, wait, is 0bama going to have a ATM’s for cash program and smash them all to put bank tellers back to work? Wow those must be high paying jobs, too…

Also, did you know that you can report BofA to the police for holding that gun to your head and forcing you to bank there? Huh, did you know that? By the way thank Dickie Durban and Chris Dodd for that one. While your at it, thank Dodd for the bang-up job he did sitting on the banking committee in congress during the Fannie and Freddie cash hand-outs-to-freinds program.

THE SAD THING IS …..THESE DEMONSTRATIONS IS WHAT THE TEA-BAGGERS WERE HOPING TO ACCOMPLISH…YOU KNOW -LOTS OF MEDIA ATTENTION….INSTEAD THEY GOT A LITTLE NOTORIETY…LOL

YEA AND bUSH HAD ALL WINNERS..LOLOLOL

The “Taxed Enough” crowd will always have support; greed is common with broad and powerful constituencies.

Justice is less popular: it confronts established powers.

Ask a female in your life if she knows anything about suboridination. Women’s suffrage comes to mind here. And if she doesn’t, know that it was liberalism–that freedom you often speak of–that allows her to be unaware.

“That’s why so many young people aren’t employed, because business owners don’t want to pay them $7.50 an hour — that money to them is better spend on a skilled worker.”

Wow! “Skilled” workers making $7.50 an hour!

What skilled worker makes $15,000 a year, Tony?

Oh really? Yes, really. Its what we call backing up your allegations.

First video, shows 1 person suggesting Jews are controlling Wall Street, it may or may not be anti-Semitic but it is just 1 person not ‘one of many’, just one. I don’t like what he has to say, but he has freedom of speech on his side.

As for the article there are just as many out there claiming that the protesters are being beaten and harassed by the police.

Well I don’t go calling you an asshole even though you sound like one :)

Please learn to read, the article you linked to says its an ‘offshot’ of the OWS not ‘part of’ the OWS – please google the terms used as I don’t have time nor inclination to prop up your faltering education.

You go ahead and try and turn the argument to discussing me as you you cant argue the points I made. Well done you for being a spokesperson for your paymasters.

King? Who givesafuck what that moronic turd says or thinks!

They got free money from Barack Obama

Obama wasn’t President, Bush was.

Can you show anything to support that OWS is asking for more government, greedy or otherwise?  Or are you just making up BS?

I could argue your “points” all day long. You’d still be an idiot. A useful idiot to someone.

Techniques the Corporate Powers Will Use to Destroy the OWS Movement
http://my.firedoglake.com/spocko/2011/10/06/techniques-the-corporate-powers-will-use-to-destroy-the-ows-movement/

Hey, now…

It’s not fair to use facts here.

How about ‘faith-based’ arguments?

Where are you, Tony?

Poor NDanielson, if you could argue my points you would, instead you choose insults, ergo my arguments are correct in your eyes.

You sound like to blowhard reactionaries of the 60′s and 70′s….communist…gimme a break…wake up and realize this gov’t is almost entirely owned by big corporations and it is their agenda that gets worked on, not what might sreve the greater good..you and your idol Gutfeld, another jackass, should go get a room as the ols saying goes..

Yup, that’s one of the most deranged right wing websites I have seen for a while, well… since yesterday actually.

Yes, and there are numerous others. I also love how say that blatantly anti-semitic chants “may or may not” be anti-semitic.

Yes, and for every one article there is a YouTube video to back it up. My favorite is the claims that the NYPD baited the protesters to break the law when YouTube evidence shows that the protesters were intent on disturbing the peace.

I also love the videos of people acting like they’re having sulfuric acid poured on their faces when it’s just friggin’ pepper spray.

Plenty.

And there are plenty of non-skilled workers with no jobs at all since many business owners would rather spend $7.50 an hour on skilled workers.

That was some mildly amusing whining that had nothing to do with my post.

Obama was a Senator who voted for the legislation, if you’d bothered to quote the full context.

Try paying attention to the news some time.

You are such a tough guy, Tony!

Looking at your photograph, I’m sure you’d last about 4 minutes in a wild, state-of-nature, setting in which you had to rely on your mind and body alone to protect yourself. Can you run a 6 minute mile? Know which plants are poisonous?

And that gun you cling to for protection? It’s actually an emblem of GOVERNMNET. Manufacturing only happens in stable, secure nations with strong governance. Think China is “small” government? Ha Ha! How much manufacturing goes on in Africa, Tony? How about Antarctica? Why don’t you move there? I bet nobody would bother you then…

The fact is that you probably kid yourself that you are a ‘self-made man,’somebody who is self-reliant, and doesn’t need any help. Ha!

No “Big Goverment,” Tony? Remember when Jefferson took the nation into debt to make the Louisiana Purchase? Your peers back then said it was unconstitutional, too (Like ObamaCare, Tony?) You probably live in one of those states.

That’s the thing, Tony: contrary to your phony Cato institute crap, government has made your whole life possible.

Even your phony rantings on the internet are government provided. DARPA, Tony, do you know what that is?

Love and kisses,

Brother Timothy

We don’t all suck at life like you. Some of us actually prepare for bad times.

@facebook-1496648721:disqus
I said it ‘may or may not be anti-semitic’ as I am not Jewish and it isnt my place to say what it is. I did say that I didn’t like it though, is that not good enough for you?

As regards the pepper spray, those people were using their constitutional rights to protest and Tony Baloney decided to attack them without reason. Whether you agree with their protest or not you should realise that if you allow police to act in such a way it diminishes all of our rights. If for some reason you think pepper spray doesn’t inflict pain or suffering then go ahead and nip down to your local law enforcement centre and ask for a face full of it.

Let’s think about this: “We don’t suck at life like you.”

Unlike government, which has a responsibilty to be open and transparent (despite DICK cheney), people and corporations can hide behind privacy. I would submit to you that this is one major reason why people are biased against government: we see its failures and they are easily displayed. Individuals and corporations are much more adept at hiding their failures. You do deserve credit for posting a photograph of yourself with your Facebook address. I, however, am not so courageous.

Here is my point: we imagine the task of government to be simple because we compare it with our own. And what is the individuals task? As you say, it is to take care of oneself and make enough money to last one’s lifetime, right? That’s pretty easy for a person, isn’t it? Your mission is more difficult, I think, because you may have children. But the point is that you need only concern yourself with you and your family–nobody else. And why is this? Cuz you and I will die. We only need to prepare ourselves for perhaps 80 years on this planet. Pretty simple, no?

But what about government? The fact is that governments operate as if they will never die–and thus they will work differently than you or me. Some say that we don’t want to leave debts to our children–there is some truth to this–but our children grow up enjoying the fruits of generations past (roads, space exploration, the Louisiana Purchase, etc). Governments must account for a future that we needn’t think about.

Government has totally different concerns. Think about China and their one-child policy from years ago. They had to condsider the future in ways that you or I never do.

You and I can get drunk on our Ipod cuz our lives are simple and finite. Government’s are neither.

Wait a minute… why is it ok for Tea Partiers to express their discontent and excercise their First Amendment rights but it’s not OK for the folks taking part in Occupy Wall Street? How much more blatantly hypocritical can Republicans be?

Peter King should crawl back into the hole where he came from.

“You are such a tough guy, Tony!”

*LOL* That’s all you got? You’re conceding defeat in this discussion pretty quickly. And your fallacious, barely coherent ramblings afterward were amusing. That’s probably why you started with the “tough guy” comment, huh.

What a dumb s.

evidence and examples, Tony.

Faith-based “reasoning” is for church, not mediaite.

name a skilled worker making $15,000 a year in America.

I was referring to your “Tough shit, welcome to the real world” comment, Tony. Did you not see the rest of the post? Louisiana Purchase, manufacturing, your physical prowess–or lack thereof–in the wilderness…?

Where are all of your words, now?

WE THE PEOPLE are happy to provide you with this internet forum–for all of your self-referential ramblings.

God Bless!

“Yeah, it was so fake that it completely swung the balance of power in the opposite direction. How’s all that “social justice” legislation coming?”

My post was related to your above comment, Tony. It’s about justice.

Any questions?     

Isn’t more regulation, more government? Or are tooth fairies the ones regulating every business owner into poverty, or into going offshore?

Yeah, they have well-paid lobbyists to do that for them.

And they wear suits and smell nice!

They’ll destroy themselves.

Oh, so you were whining about government-sponsored revenge, or “social justice” as you people call it. Funny how you call it “justice” when there is no trial, jury, or courts involved and the sentence is eternal. I wonder how the hell you think you got the authority to do that.

Oh noooooo! Did wee baby D get banned???

“government-sponsored revenge”

Have you heard of the Constitution, Tony? It has this thing called the Bill of Rights. I asked you earlier about a woman who might have a different perspective, but it’s clear you have never known a woman.

Briefly, we all got together–except those pesky women and blacks–and made a document to administrate this nation. The document represents the values of the people in this country.

Maybe you were just born too late…but fuedalism does seem to be returning. So chin up, young man!

Peter King said: “The fact is these people are anarchists. They have no idea what they’re doing out there… They have no sense of purpose other than a basically anti-American tone and anti-capitalist. It’s a ragtag mob basically.”That is the conservative way if they don’t believe if the same principles I do then they must be a “ragtag mob”  Peter why don’t you get a brain and try to understand they are fed up with people like you and the party of “No”.

oscar, oscar, oscar.  Prior to the 08 election Bush kept both candidates informed of exactly what was going on.  After the election, the Obama financial team was working directly with Paulson and the Bush financial team on dispersing the funds.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/25/us/politics/25obama.html?pagewanted=all

As of December 31/08, check your source, only $250 billion of the TARP funds had been spent.  Prior to taking the oath, President-elect Obama asked Bush to go to the Senate and request the remaining funds to be released so the money would be ready for him on day one of his presidency.

Barney Franks also told, the “American people”  in October of 08 that their plan for TARP had already been agreed upon by House and Senate Democrats and the Republicans would be informed of it the following day.  So, Bush signed the democrats slush fund into law to avert the country’s financial crisis.

Yeah, Bush signed the bill the democrats wrote, spent $250 billion of that $700 billion by December 31/08.  Money spent was in agreement with Obama’s team that worked directly with the Bush team beginning Nov. 25/08, the rest of the money, at the request of Obama prior to his Oath of Office, was released by the Dem Senate to be available to Obama on day one.  Dem leaders also planned to have a $500 billion “Stimulus” bill written to be signed on day one.

“The coordination between Mr. Obama and Mr. Bush was taking place among aides, as well as in direct talks about the rescue plan for Citigroup and unresolved details of the overall Treasury bail out plan.”

Obama also said “his advisors would begin working “today.” The advisors would include Timothy F. Geithner.” (as soon as he paid up his back taxes), heh!

That worked out well, lol.

The money spent prior to Dec. 31/08 was spent on purchasing stocks and warrants from small banks, and loans for the big banks,  per oscars wiki source.

The auto bailout was set in motion during that period between the election and Bush leaving office

Progress comes from corporations, like the ones that built this internet you’re talking on. Misery comes from progressives.

Who’s afraid of the big, bad drum circle?

You should stop voting for these people then.

Facts, faux-Tebow?

President-elect Barack Obama told Democratic senators in a closed lunch
today that he needs the second $350 billion authorized by Congress as
part of the TARP legislation last year and that he’ll veto any move by
Congress to cut that funding off.

Name a Tea Party lobbyist.

Exactly. The GOP is used to the left wing being their punching bag. Now that we’re, AT LONG LAST, fighting back it scares the crap out of them.

Congressman Peter King: Friend of  terrorists. (its ok if theyre white)

Cain didn’t say that the poor are a problem. Can you show us a cite that supports your assertion?

You mean that site dedicated to pictures and video of leftists? The truth hurts, huh?

You really suck at this, Karl. Of course, you’ve got absolutely nothing to work with, so it isn’t all your fault.

the legitimacy for OWS comes from the people and has nothing to do with Mr. King and his minions. He is working off the TPARTY NATIONALISTS who were  funded by the KOCHROACHES last year. Their loud, disrespectful and arrogant voices were fully intended to disrupt and prevent real national dialogue on Health Care Reform. Without those KOCH dollars, the TPARTY will fade and another GOP shape shifter will take its place. when the GOP has a point, they just fund the groupies to make the noise. OWS is from the people up, where Obama always, said CHANGE had to originate to be real. OWS is a people’s movement which continues to grow and it will be reflected in the elections of 2012. The timing is perfect. BENTON HARBOR, MI hand in there. YOUR TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION WILL SOON END. WI recall WALKER and get rid of him asap. And maybe, just maybe, the powers of SUPER THIEF IN CHIEF Rick Scott will be curtailed in FL. He has the keys the keys to the vault and he is wasting taxpayer dollars while enriching his political buds.

Corporations are people. Investors, employees, managers, directors, officers. All people working together toward a common goal. Like unions. And government.

What the hell do you think they are?

And a historic shift in Congress.

3 entire pages! Holy shit the 53% is taking over what a real group!

I know! Like when the middle class tax breaks we enacted on April 1 09. And the first big Bagger protest was on April 15 09. And the only one at the time taking on more taxes was the rich! And the Baggers were protesting against tax bumps even though they themselves got a break for the most part! 

They’re sooooooooooooooo not puppets of the rich…..

This movement is really starting to scare the Republicans.  It will push them to do more voter suppression.  

internet was invented by/for the military…by the GOVERNMENT

CORPORATION LOVERS!
I’m starting a pro-corporation protest movement. It is called SHAREHOLDERS HAVE INTERESTS, TOO!
For our first rally, S.H.I.T leaders will be printing and passing out signs containing THE CORPORATE BILLS OF RIGHTS! Our right to 1) pay no taxes, 2) have no government oversight, 3) pay off politicians to push our legislation through Congress, 4) raid corporate 401K’s for our own personal benefit, 5) outsource jobs to other countries. 
There are many more signs I’m drawing up. But if you come to my rally, great Americans like you and me will picket unemployment offices and union headquarters. S.H.I.T. demands must be met if we’re going fight for corporate rights. 
COME WITH MY, MY BRETHREN!  CORPORATIONS MUST HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO WHATEVER NECESSARY TO INSURE STOCKHOLDER PROFIT AND UNAMERICAN PROTESTERS LIKE “OWS” ARE GETTING IN THE WAY. 
WELL, IT’S TIME WE START THIS S.H.I.T. UP!!!
TOMORROW IT BEGINS, MY FRIENDS!  S.H.I.T. WILL LET THE WORLD KNOW THAT CORPORATIONS HAVE RIGHTS! LET US PROTEST TOGETHER UNTIL CORPORATIONS FINALLY HAVE SOME POWER IN THIS COUNTRY!

WHO’S WITH ME!!!!??? 

Nice TD pass, Tebow.

If these Wall Street protestors had a clue they’d be dangerous.

It’s a historical analogy  — look it up.

Guns? I like guns.  I have a lot of them. They’re useful and fun.  As to the Tealiban, please, stop comparing the OCW movement to the Tea Party. It’s insulting to OCW movement. 

Where do you get your BS? Try this link and tell me where you find that the top 1% have more than 50% of the wealth: http://www.taxfoundation.org/files/ff135data–all%20charts.swf

What makes you think he’s a terrorist sympathizer?

What’s this “Friend of terrorists” crap?

Read some history sometime…” King has spoken out for the IRA, a nationalist group that waged a bloody bomb-and-bullet campaign for three decades.” i.e. FRIEND OF TERRORISTS!

If you have seen any of the many video interviews with these Occupy Wall Street dribble bibs then you know that Peter King has nothing to worry about as far as them gaining legitimacy.

Van Jones, who started the progressive Take Back The American Dream movement, even said, “I’m not mad at the tea party for being so loud,” he said. “I’m mad at us for being so quiet for the past two-and-a-half years.”
Back in 2009, when the tea party was making waves disrupting health care town halls with elected representatives, they were definitely not seen as the huggable peace-lovers Phillips and the others described. Congressmen reported threats, demonstrators brought guns to political rallies, and one leaked memo laid out the tea party’s town hall strategy as “yell out and challenge the Rep’s statements early…. to rattle him, get him off his prepared script and agenda…stand up and shout and sit right back down.”Mark Meckler of Tea Party Patriots said of Occupy Wall Street: “These are law breaking people.”
Judson Phillips of Tea Party Nation had a similar take. “While the left wants to tear down and destroy all that is good in America, and replace it with an ideology if [sic] evil, the Tea Party movement is based on love,” he wrote in a blog post Tuesday. “Real Americans love their country and their neighbors.
The Tea Party is not motivated by hatred as the left is.”Gone Insanity said, “There is no violence at tea parties,” she added. “They are reading the Constitution. They are reading the Federalist Papers. 
This is a mob.”Peter Johnson Jr. called the protesters “deluded” with “absolutely no purpose or focus in life” on Fox & Friends, and host Steve Doocy dismissed them as getting “between me and a steak dinner.”Van Jones, who started the progressive Take Back The American Dream movement, even said, “I’m not mad at the tea party for being so loud,” he said. “I’m mad at us for being so quiet for the past two-and-a-half years.”

Yeah, and Edison invented the light bulb. Your point?

Yeah, and Edison invented the light bulb. Your point?

Another politician that wants protesters he disagrees with to go away, and media censored that covers them. Good thing politicians don’t have that kind of power in a free society.

Tony, you are a liar.  Medea Benjamin is still against  the wars, still protests against the wars, and did so at 2 Obama fundraisers in the L.A area in late Sept 2011.
http://codepink.org/blog/2011/09/occupy-wall-street-challeng-obama-end-the-wars-and-fund-human-needs/

That isnt true.  The internet was invented by colleges. 

Do any of you posters mis-characterizing the people involved in OWS care that the U.S. has the greatest wealth disparity in its history?  Democracy cannot survive when so much is controlled by so few.  We can see that Congress is bought by the highest bidder now.  We can see that corporations work for their own profit (as they are supposed to do) and care not for  the financial health of  the U.S.  In order for them to care, they have to be regulated.  No regulations means less worker safety, destruction of the environment, etc…
You want you country back?  Have the rich pay their fair share of taxes, support unions and buy American made products.  

He stuck up for the IRA

Well I don’t go calling you an asshole even though you sound like one :)

Don’t worry, he uses that term and worse all the time

NDanielson10/06/2011: These boards have been overrun, goodbye mediaite!”

bedtime is 5:00

People need to read history to see that this is nothing new. 

Back when we were just colonies for the British, some states were growing tea.  That tea was being sold against a booming Dutch trade and a huge corporation (The East India Company) which basically controlled all routes of trade.  While based out of India, the company was British owned and controlled (much like most of the world at the time).  To combat the threats that were hurting their bottom lines, the East India Company used money and influence to levy taxes on Dutch and American Tea’s.  This really didn’t have an effect on the American trade due to the fact that we had a foothold on the “New World” market.  Most of our tea was sold to fellow colonies and the Spanish and French colonies in the Western Hemisphere.  This would not do.  So the East India Company influenced Parliament to enact the Tea Act of 1773.  This act rolled back taxes on East India Tea for the colonies (to the fact is was almost free) and raised taxes on exported tea 10%.  The colonists didn’t like this and didn’t like the fact that a multinational corporation could sway Parliament, yet they had no elected officials in Parliament. They brought this up to their leaders at the time and they expressed the same concerns to Parliament.  Parliament replied by saying “well you are just workers for the providers and our concerns are with who controls our economy.”  This made the colonists kinda mad, especially the ones labeled anarchists and anti-capitalists. They decided to get together and dump the latest shipment of East India tea into the Boston Harbor. 

So you see, historically speaking, OWS has more in common with the Boston Tea Party, than those who call themselves members of the Tea Party.  Historically speaking, our founding fathers hated banks and corporations due to these facts. 

But then again, they also forced people to work for them against their will and beat or killed them if they stepped out of line. 

But who pays their bills?  Pablo, you are a smart bunny with a pancake on his head, you can’t tell me that a movement that was started to protest the bailouts have not been taken over by those who actually got bail out money.

so why cant they be charged with felonies? Why do they not pay income taxes?  Why cannot they be punished by public take over of their property? 

well some one fact checked it and…

http://www.politifact.com/wisconsin/statements/2011/mar/10/michael-moore/michael-moore-says-400-americans-have-more-wealth-/

so you are against that?  Would you be against throwing a bunch of tea in a harbor too?

so you are for privatizing gains and making public the losses?  Are you for giving banks a blank check to cover the losses that they made through bad financial betting?

Oh there is this too

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2011/oct/06/bernie-s/bernie-sanders-says-six-bank-companies-have-assets/

ohh my mr King…how  unAmerican…taking to the streets  and protesting  their concerns about the USA goi ng to hell in a hand basket…I dont rely on Fox news..i take the time to research what is happening…i watched a variety of sources on OWS..not all Liberal…what i seen was a number of people from various walks of life…its just not young people anymore..its people who are working still…its people who have lost their jobs..lost their homes..wondering what to feed their kids …people who have worked all their adult life on the verge of losing it…they not only watched wall street getting bailed out..with their taxpayers money…but  in the same breath watching these Corporate Welfare bums  paying themselves large bonuses  in the millions to a tune of 90 billion alone in bonus. why you would support your tax dollars going to this Tony is hard to comprehend..i see the right on here spewing out nothing but hate about the protesters…..maki ng descions on who these people are by watching edited  media clips…yes Mr King..how un American to be voicing  their opinion…and as you state  their actions and thoughts might even shape policy…well you and the GOP shaped its policy for 8  horrific yrs with Bush that is the cause of this recession and now a majority Republican Congress that will do everything to destroy  the 99% Americans only for 1 thing..political gain and to get rid of Obama…Again how un American to become pro active  on deciding what kind of future  they might have..

There’s 2 links you should read below before you open you f*cking mouth again!!

Love King’s comment, “I’m old enough to remember
what happened in the 1960s when the left-wing took to the streets and
somehow the media glorified them and it ended up shaping policy… We
can’t allow that to happen.” So, King is suggesting that the protests that helped stop the Vietnam War had a negative end result. Wow. Oh, for those “good ‘ol days,” when our kids were dying in rice paddies, right, Peter?

Ty!!

Ty!!

Mr. King would feel much better about them if they were
bombing busses as his pals in the IRA did. 
I understand the original sin of politics is hypocrisy but this guy
takes the cake.

Um, he’s not talking about ATM fees he’s talking about actual in-store or over the internet debit card purchases.

Ask the Irish judge who kicked him out of his court room and described King as “an obvious collaborator with the IRA”.

Ahhh, you must be kidding me. Right! the perfect private sector invented the internet? What a joke! Its the Big Govt. that you phonies claim to despise that funded the project.

That’s what you don’t get. Corporations are nominally owned by shareholders who have no vested interest in the Corporation except that profits(dividends) are maximized. Damn the workers, damn the environment. The common goal of the individuals is a compensation that allows them to live. All that other common goal shit is propaganda. Otherwise they would all work for free. The higher paid workers (management directors and officers)  are employed to squeeze the most out of the lower paid  worker for as little in return as possible. That’s why employment is down but productivity is up. The corporation is a stack of papers filed with the secretaries of state that states what it plans to do and how. It is not a person except in the eyes of people who devalue humanity but worship capital.

What the hell do YOU think they are?

Rice paddies, the mountains of Afghanistan, the cities and deserts of Iraq, the cities and desert of Libya, the killing and being killed, maiming and being maimed, is just as devastating to everybody involved, Americans and indigenous both.  It is just that, now, we have a professional military, not a conscript military, so the segment of the population actually involved is much smaller and the devastation caused to those involved is much greater.  The idea that we are still in Iraq and Afghanistan 10 years later, and in Libya without any involvement of Congress, is obscene.  If the USA had a draft you can bet the protesters would have been out in the streets long since.

Not at all, it is a twisted truth as represented by the right wing – there is nothing hurtful about it.

Just remember that leftist/left wing means better for all.

The right wing, those that you support means better for the few that are already enjoying great success.

Go and put your powdered wig and tricorn hat on fool.

And you didn’t come up with those links, did you, blowhard? Well I read them and there’s nothing there that substantiates your claim that the wealthiest 1% of the population have more than 50% of the wealth in this country. And if you even bothered to go the link I provided, you would have seen that the top 1% earned 22% of the total gross income (as of 2006). So maybe you should read before YOU open your big fucKing mouth again!

Now, there’s a solution…..frizzymstarbaby2

since when has dissent not been part of the democratic process?  we who care about income disparity and the jobless think of this as the only way to make ourselves known; the political process in this country has been completely broken down with no concern for our citizens; more about personal agendas…….grow up and start thinking of the big picture……not just your little plots of ground.  we are in big trouble and tunnel vision wont help us out of it.  

Well stated.

So, because these protestors don’t have the power to bring down the entire financial sector when they make their demands for Daddy Government and Mommy Congress to step in their complaints are somehow invalid?

Gotcha…

I think your position can best be summed up by this; If you’re a Wall Street Exec that makes bad investments you CAN take money from the ”people who aren’t responsible for their stupid decisions” but when you’re the average citizen that presumabily played by the rules and didn’t hurt anyone, well…   too damn bad.

That sound about right?

Since all spending starts in the House of Representatives as per the US Constitution AND since the House is controlled by a REPUBLICAN majority…

Why – IT MUST be the fault of those damn socialist commie Democrats that the money got spent on other projects, huh?

Man…  YOU must have been one of the smart ones that didn’t pay for a useless college education as your ability to think critically just SHINES!

Ummm…   I have a college degree. And OH LOOK I just bought a NEW car last week too!

Man…  ur screwed now…

“Why? We have guns.”

You think you Repubs are the only ones? Just keep underestimating the will of someone who has nothing to lose and everything to gain and see how far that gets you, tough guy.

But hey, whatever helps you sleep at night, right?

the point is simply to take personal responsibility in life.   Whining about wall street does nothing.  Don’t like wall street, start your own business.   America is the land of opportunity, not free handouts.  

Just like in the 60′s our government was going down a path that the American people knew was wrong! We protested vietnam allowing our people to go and die for a cause that still confuses every civilian to date…Now our government is spiraling down a path of world wide collapse and the only reason they wont make the changes to fix it, is because it reduces thier power and checkbooks. A bunch of rich men and women that could care less about what is happening when i can’t feed my family and i can’t afford heat in the winter. America broke away from England because we didn’t want to be controlled by the corruption of wealth and a government made up of hand me down political bloodlines…..Well guess what we are still ruled by the same arrogant people the only difference is now we have 100 of them ruling over us and they would rather watch your families rot in the gutter rather than make the changes that need to be made…Americans need to listen to Warren Buffet and back the Congressional Reform Act of 2011

LMFAO!!! I think I will incorporate myself and then take out student loans. When Sallie Mae asks me for a check, I will refuse on the grounds that it would interfere with my fiduciary responsibility to maximize profits for my shareholders, namely Me, Myself and I.
