Summations Only

The Tea Party is essentially an instrument of the religious right, insisting they are "Taxed Enough Already" when taxes are lower than they've been in most of their lifetimes. They deride Obama as a tax and spend liberal when he has cut taxes; they stockpile ammo and buy guns by the crate because Obama will take their guns away, while he has explicitly rejected any thought of doing so.

Perhaps, although organized, the far left is much smaller than they would have you believe?

What are they going to demand of their congressman, being most of them have no idea what they are protesting about, relative to Wall Street?

While these non-tax paying idle (many of whom are rag tag) routy mobs are on the streets, (abe: biting) the hands that feed them, the one's feeding them are working ever harder to pay the increased taxes levied on them to pay for the 2 years unemployment, etc.

If they contact their congressman, they should advise him/her that they are willing to give up their techy stuff, food, trucking companies that truck the stuff, motorcycles, autos and all else that Wallstreet affords them.

If you were a Fox News listener, you would be aware that Democrat congressmen, during the Bush Admin, and now the Obama Admin along with Democrat oversight congressmen were demanding the banks to dish out loans to people who couldn't afford them.

The protesters are organized by the Obama backed unions, Obama crony, billionaire socialist George Soros, et al and other left wing anti-capitalist entities who, unlike the well mannered Tea Partiers, occupy the people's parks, streets and businesses.

I certainly want nothing to do with that sort of nonsense.

We shouldn't welcome illegal anybodies.

I'm one of those Social Security recipients. I, along with most of us paid our dues/taxes for our SS retirement . I paid non-inflated hard earned $$ for 40 years to pay for the pittance of inflated $$ I'm getting back; about enough to keep me from freezing and starvation. Had I been allowed to invest all of this money in money markets, etc, I'd be living on easy street today. I was paying in 25 cent gasoline money and getting back $3.00 gasoline money.
No we seniors, many of whom were Tea Party participants, were not on the public dole. We/they were the cheated ones who were frisked by the government for our hard earned to pay for our own retirement.What is your source that most were seniors and the figure you cited? Methinks it's a blind assertion.BTW, Froggie, who's paying the Union workers, their organizers and many of the people who are there spending money, buying food, buying Ipods, phones, tents, etc.I smell rats here, involving our Organizer In Chief, who saw to it that the workers could get two years $$ from the public dole so as to implement mayhem, chaos and spread anti capitalistic hatred around the nation and the planet?Our Organizer in Chief is organizing his promised civilian army revolution so as to keep his promise of changing America so as for it to be compatible with he, his close bud, Bill Ayres, violent Weather Underground terrorist, America hater/pastor/former Nation Of Islam member/ bud of Louis Farrakahn, self avowed Communist/socialist, Frank Marshal Davis, etc, etc.In order to fundamentally transform our nation into what Bill Ayers et al fail to do violently, the Organizer In Chief plans to achieve chaos and mayhem, destroy the American &&, undermine our only ally in the Mid East, Israel and empower the Islamic Brotherhood in nations like Egypt, Labia, (now Sudan) and other nations.Now our Army is aiding and abetting the ruthless Islamic regime in Sudan who was burning villages, crucifying Christians, burning down the homes of Christians, killing and persecuting Christians to the point that, like now in Egypt, the Christians were forced to organize a resistance to save the lives of their families and avoid being forced to convert to Islam which was why the ruthless regime persecuted them.

Yah sure, like all of the city folks are going to run out and find a farmer to by dinner, produce, home canned peaches, pressed cider, whole hog sides, live steers to butcher, lumber to build your house and garage with, etc, etc.

If Wall Street were blown to bits tomorrow, can you imagine the panic you and all of those nincompoops out their yelling their fool heads off about ?? would be caught up in along with the whole nation? The impact on the economy and welfare of Americans would dwarf 9/11.

That's a blatant false blind assertion. [...] It happens that the Democrats are the ones who are pushing for TARP and a whole lot of what are going to bankrupt the nation.

Oh yah, sure, just what we need is more of the government medling in private lives and affairs that got us in the mess in the first place.

You best go back to the science forums, Dr Adequate, where you can at least appear to be intelligent.

Why is it more fair that the richer you are the higher the percentage? Why not 10% across the board regardless of your income? To me fairness is for it to be the same for everyone regardless of income.

Our research shows clearly that the movement doesn't represent unemployed America ...

Yet the Occupy Wall Street movement reflects values that are dangerously out of touch with the broad mass of the American people ...

True, the lower income can get more in food and rent than the higher income, however. The higher income also has more opportunities to allow that 1% to work for them and for the benefit of the economy as a hole than if it is just given to the government.
