22. OWS is not a pro-Dem movement. It is a pro-people movement.
OWS wasn't going to go out and rally for Obama since he put Wall Street in the WH.

Where was HE during all those Tea Party rallies? Where was HE when they made up "death panels"? He didn't speak out about it much. HE gave up on the public option, WE didn't. WE are not going to go out and rally for someone who isn't representing us.

Serious questions since you don't think Obama has any fault in anything:

Who MADE him appoint Geithner?
Who MADE him choose Daley?
Who MADE him have secret back door deals with the health insurance companies?
Why isn't he investigating the banksters?
Why isn't he trying to bring back REAL regulations on Wall Street?

None of that is the fault of "We". None of it. If you want "WE" to be on board you need to get that "ME" on board with us, not with the 1%.

You said it there are "FACTS" to back up that Obama is fighting for the middle class. There may be some, but what about the facts in my questions above? What do they show? Not that he is fighting for the middle class, they show that he is beholden to Wall Street. So why are you blaming OWS for his failures? They are against what he has been for since the appointment of his administration.
