This really ticks me off! R/W propaganda

Okay. So, I subscribe to the National Review on my facebook page. The only reason was to keep in touch with the lies that are being sowed.
After this, I don't know if it is healthy to keep seeing their nonsense on my page!

Hold your nose:

(he wouldn't HIRE any of them...)
I was not alone in my disappointment. Spotting a milling crowd in the center of the encampment I wandered closer. A man on the outskirts of the mini-mob was yelling at the crowd. I assumed he was attempting to stir them from their lethargy, possibly preparing them to march on some millionaire’s house. Given the buzz of activity around him I was sure I had found the epicenter of the revolution. It turned out, however, to be the feeding station, where free eggs and what I think was bacon were being given away. Milling around waiting for the free food was the most motley collection of vagrants I have ever witnessed. And the man haranguing them from the sidelines was in actuality condemning them for their lack of commitment. Over and over he shouted, “You’re only here for the free food — not the revolution,” alternating with, “The revolution is not about free food.” I stood to one side for a while, and it was soon apparent to me that for the majority of those at Zuccotti Park, their revolutionary fervor was very much related to getting a free meal.


Keep holding:

The next stage of the Aimless Occupation of America is upon us: On Wednesday, rabble-rousers in the San Francisco Bay Area will walk off jobs they don’t have and encourage everyone else around the country to abandon work to protest high unemployment.



I have to wonder how these people and those like them are going to incorporate into the new world we are making. Does not look hopeful.

1. This would not appear anywhere if OWS wasn't working.
Why would the right spend so much energy on a movement that gets no results. OWS has got them spooked and they don't know a good way to counter it other than to try and make it look bad.

I think the more I see of the rights gibberish the more I feel OWS will have a real positive impact.

Already the banks dropped their $5.00 debit card usage fee. Cities across the country are supporting the occupiers.

The people who write that shit are not working for any goal. They are the lazy bastards and they know it.

2. True.
Very well stated. I feel a little better.
