Since it launched two weeks ago, the #OccupyWallStreet movement has gone national, spawning copy-cat demonstrations in far-flung locales like Tulsa and Boise (see our map).

"The counting vampires are destroying America!" #OccupySesameStreet

Why isn't Reporter Kermit covering this? #occupysesamestreet
