Posted on March 22, 2012 at 7:03pmI wish they would clean up, get jobs, work hard, get married and have kids. By then perhaps their outlook will change. When I was in my late teens/early twenties I thought I was smart too but I really wasn’t. Went through the hippie era and the OWS remind me so much of that. They put up their tents, shout and rant. Then it was love, sex, drugs and flower power. Now the rant has changed to hate, sex, drugs and socialist power. By the time I hit 23 I became a republican and grew up. One of the best choices I have ever made. Now as a mom with kids in their twenties I’m so glad they are not into the ridiculousness of the OWS. They learned quickly when young how to be responsible. Both have jobs. One graduated college and the other is working towards his PhD. Parents where are you today?

Posted on March 21, 2012 at 3:13pmAnd one more thing…I’m 57 and I love Real News. You guys are fantastic. For God sake don’t get caught up in yourself…at least not too much. So good to hear from younger people. The old news guys are completely lost. No idea what’s going on. Keep it up kids! I’m rooting for you.

Posted on March 21, 2012 at 5:23pmhttp://www.petition2congress.c... Go to this website and sign the petition to vet obama for eligibility to be president. He was never vetted by the lame stream media in 08 and he has to be now. If you voted for him before, his record should keep you from voting for him again.

Posted on March 21, 2012 at 1:16pmI’ll tell what’s going to happen with OWS. They are going to join with other radical left wingers, socialists, commies; unions etc. and make the Dem convention in Chicago 1968 look like a love-in. On top of this I believe that the right wing groups, which I more associate myself with, Tea Party, AFP, unions (yes unions will be on both sides because some of them are waking up to the fact that a waiver can go away at any time) will also be there and we could have the beginning of the inevitable Nationwide street fight.

This would explain the “executive order” from last Friday. It’s coming. Get ready.

Posted on March 21, 2012 at 12:20pmThe occupyers are being managed by people from outside for the purpose of causing chaos, which will leave an opening for a foreign power to step in unless we can stop them . In Egypt, a minority, (the muslim brotherhood) has taken over. In America, if they succeed, it may be, communists and the terrorists from South America, China, Russia? Once we are weak, who knows who will step in to that void. As Glenn said, the most organized win. It could be very ugly and violent. I pray I am wrong. May God be with us all.

Posted on March 21, 2012 at 10:48amGreat Panel discussion.
Eric Hoffer – yes agreed.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_True_Believer
The OWS group does_not_need_ a_message to rally around. They only need ‘their own’ reasons to stay together – until a critical moment – that they can Affect. To be willing and together act on what their Union Bosses/Master Progressives desire – that is their goal. Ask them yourself.
Lastly, they simply can not be compared philosophically – as they have no real replacement for the ideas they are attacking. They are being manipulated, and easily at that.

Posted on March 21, 2012 at 7:01amAre they open to have others on that panel? How about they invite someone within Occupy? Alexis Goldstein from Occupy the SEC would have made an interesting panel member here.

Posted on March 21, 2012 at 2:17pmPlease don’t make me hurl ! You’ve got to be joking. Do not invite an occupier on this panel, ever ! First of all “Occupy” is protesting anything and everything, as well as ramping up the violence talk against police officers, the rich etc..( the “rich” being people who have a job, and pay taxes to support things like those police officers that the occupiers berate, malign and threaten) There is no cohesive message in “Occupy”, so there is no such thing as a “spokesperson”. The closest thing to a spokesperson is currently in residence at the White House. It’s all about fomenting class warfare so Obama can win reelection. By definition, anyone who has the time to “Occupy” rather then go to work and earn a living to support themselves like the rest of us, is not someone I want to hear from.
Report Post »All decent U.S. citizens want reform and justice in government and financial institutions by working through the system, not the Occupy agenda of destruction, anarchy, chaos and death. Either you believe in the Capitalist system or you are pro socialist/communist.
Good discussion by Real News. Like the new 6 p.m. start time.

Posted on March 21, 2012 at 6:24amWhat does it mater who Occupy is—they ought to be on the list of domestic terrorists just like the Black Panthers and the Bla ck Militia/?How come Holder is so worried about a few white guys when Obozo has his own armed, organized and trained in the Al’Qeda camps?

Posted on March 21, 2012 at 12:47amOccupy movements involve two different and distinct groups:
The mass of ‘useful, brain dead, idiots’ of Stanlin and Lenin fame who are directed and disposed of as needed.
Behind them are the true dangerous radical leadership. Different bands and leaders united by one simple goal. the destruction of the Republic and the instalation of a communist regime.
Obama and Occupy, with the radical of Van Jones and the others are far from done.

The OWs are soon going to be EVERYONE…..as the top 1% keeps playing with the market ENRON style. There is NO NEED for all these out of control prices http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/321529
this is a shake down of the public by the 1%………..as that happens the public is going to do what thew 1% is doing to them…..stealing and robbing the system “Chicago style.”

Do you not understand that Ocommie and his cronies are part of the 1%? If you and he succeed in transforming America, then we will all be the subjects of the totalitarian state. Your state of being will be in jeopardy when you usefulness ends.
