Occupy Wall Street, London and Evereywhere Else

The strategy for the Freedom Riders back in 1961 was to ride through the deep south and to attempt to attract publicity while getting their heads bashed in. Edited by NoNukes, : No reason given.Edited by NoNukes, : No reason given.

I'm not going to explain it.

Surely we are not yet blaming Obama for the fall 2008, prior to either his election or his inauguration financial bailouts?

I did not think that. I suppose I could have found a different place to attach my comment...

Onifre, I'm sure you have great reasons to support Ron Paul, but your analysis seems a bit off when you attempt to predict how others should vote. Given that a fair number of states would immediately ban abortion if Roe v. Wade were overturned, and that only the federal courts stand in the way of this, I think your argument is a bit simplistic. Ron Paul wants to remove jurisdiction over the issue completely from the federal courts.RP feels the same way about separation of state and church issues and he felt the same way about the civil rights act of 1964 even while states were actively practicing discrimination. Look at the way Texas and Virginia fool around with history textbooks and imagine that same kind of Monkey business going on with kid's science text books. That's life as Ron Paul would have it.So yes, Ron Paul's opinion on abortion ought to matter. Does No Child Left Behind seem to you to be a major OWS issue? Wouldn't OWS members be a bit more concerned about what would happen to school loans and other college funding programs under RP?Removing the EPA so we can burn more coal? A right to work policy in which the only important action is union busting? OWS ought to like that, eh?How might OWS guys feel about health care?Seriously, Onifire. You cannot think of a single legitimate reason why an OWS participant might think Ron Paul is a bad choice? Sure Onifre. And what party is it that has opposed every attempt to add any new regulations to the banking industry? Would McCain have been a stronger advocate for regulating the banking industry than the people we did elect? McCain was about the last person on earth to even acknowledge that there was any kind of economic crisis. His Iraq plan was to stay the course indefinitely. Who knows what kind of president McCain would have made?

Apparently, there is no longer any pretense that the myth of trickle-down (voodoo) economics ever had any basis in fact.According to the leading candidate for Obama's house, people who want to discuss the increasing income gap between the rich and the middle class (outside of quite rooms) are simply envious, and perhaps sinfully covetous of their rich brethern. The other Republican candidates are being encourage to stop pointing out problems with Romney's work at Bain because doing so is bad for the Republican party.Romney, Gingrich tangle over ads in South Carolina | Fox News

Republican New York Rep. Michael Grimm also released a statement saying the attacks would have a "negative effect on the party."

​

"When GOP candidates, especially those who identify themselves as conservatives, use phrases like 'vulture capitalism' or adopt leftist rhetoric, they are jeopardizing the strength and unity of the party," he said.
