It grows and it is organic
and it is not party specific...

This is what will (already is) scaring the political class and their media lackeys.

Remember they did not do this for the tea party, they did not try to diminish it. Now they have...they are... and it grows.

This morning I looked at the meetup map... http://www.meetup.com/occupytogether/

You will quickly notice this is not just in the US anymore. It started in the Arab spring... now it looks like a global fall.

3. Worldwide, the bankers harmed and went unpunished.
Why wouldn't the world be angry at them? The bankers were afraid when they were first caught. They knew what they deserved. But they were rewarded instead of punished. They felt invincible. They need to lose that feeling.

7. See here:
http://15october.net/

All continents, hundreds of cities. This didn't start in US but OWS was inspired by the 15M movement which was inspired by Arab Spring, and not all 15M events are announced on occupytogether.

Yes, this is organic growth. Seeds were planted in Arab Spring and on 15 May, summer gave sun and rain, now it is time of harvest. And with organic gardening, next year the soil of rEvolution will be more fertile.

12. I'll be there tomorrow in Anchorage.
I understand they had about 150 at Wednesday's meetup, which occurred on very short notice, and to which I couldn't go. I'm expecting a pretty good crowd tomorrow. I'll post pics.
