    If even a minimum wage job was "Occupied" by this person, he'd have more money, wouldn't he?

    I suppose they wish to "Occupy" everything... but a job!

    So homeless people make over $100 an hour begging? Occupiers make maybe $30 an hour. The rest of us have to pay taxes..... for welfare programs.

    You can't blame these uneducated, misinformed progressives. When handouts are dangled in front of them, it's just natural to just sit up and beg.

    The day is coming where unions won't even be able to rally people, not even with money. Just shows how desperate and scared regressives are right now.

    The Unions have been doing this all over the country. They even have training sessions on how to properly protest. Including howw to get the police to use force while their cohorts film it as police brutality and submit it to the evening news.

    How much publicity was given to the police assaulted with bags of sharpened Rebar in Seattle a few weekw ago? Or the policement hit by Bricks and other missiles in Oakland recently? But boy does the media show the Phone videos of the police taking down unruly protesters..

    We live in a Lawless and deviant society, and there may be no turning back.

    In Santa Fe these thugs managed to injure a guest of a State rep at a private fund raiser, and the UNION BACKED PIGGER COPS refused to make any arrests!

    The police are under fire if they even try to stop these thugs. They are being trained to scream Police Brutality at any attempt to stop them, And they have some of their members arrested, and fight with the police while another member films it.

    Then it gets dumped all over the evening news to show that the poliice are brutalizing innocent protesters. Then the citizenry, the ACLU, and all other groups come out ot the woodwork and the cops get suspended or fired. It's getting nasty.

    Glad I'm not a cop. You are damned if you do, and damned if you don't.

    Im just waiting for the LWNJ spring thats going to be coming soon as winter is gone. I can guarantee we will see levels of violence from the LWNJ that we have never witnessed in this country. The new LWNJ crazies will make Bill Ayres' (0WEbamas terrorist buddy) Weather Underground bombings look like child's play.

    Give us a Cite if you can. (Oh, it has to be legitimate, not from someone blogging in their underwear in their Mother's basement.)

    Even if they had, that's good. Occupyers are bad. See how simple it is?

    Senator Patty Murray, Chair
    Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee

    Dear Senator Murray:

    For many months now, your colleagues in the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee leadership have engaged in a series of disparagements and ad hominem attacks about us, apparently as part of a concerted political and fundraising strategy. Just recently, Senator Reid wrote in a DSCC fundraising letter that Republicans are trying to “force through their extreme agenda faster than you can say ‘Koch Brothers.’”

    So you can imagine my chagrin when I got a letter from you on June 17 asking us to make five-figure contributions to the DSCC. You followed that up with a voicemail* indicating that, if we contributed heavily enough, we would garner an invitation to join you and other Democratic leaders at a retreat in Kiawah Island this September.

    I’m hoping you can help me understand the intent of your request because it’s hard not to conclude that DSCC politics have become so cynical that you actually expect people whom you routinely denounce to give DSCC money.

    It is troubling that private citizens taking part in the discourse have become the targets of White House and DSCC fundraising missives, and we would certainly encourage you to rethink that approach. Ultimately, I expect voters...

    Thats none of your business who the Koch brothers give too. Wanta compare George Soros to Koch Brothers? Besides that, at least the Koch family provides thousands of honest jobs for the private sector. How about George Soros, can the same be said about him? If so when and where?

    So what if the Koch's donate to the Tea Party. They can do what ever they wish. Praise the Lord the Tea Party has highly respected folks like the Koch brothers donating. HA! Just for giggles --- Bet the TP would refuse George Soros' money in a split second.

    "But it has now come out how involved they have been in funding Tea Party groups, Americans for Prosperity, FreedomWorks, and Citizens for a Sound Economy ($12 million)."

    Are you kidding me?
    1. USNews is very left-leaning.
    2. Including, "funding Tea Party groups" without any "Tea Party group" example sounds extremely biased.
