Occupiers Hosing the DNC

Recommended Posts

Delegates and convention-goers who were forced to wait for buses to be rerouted expressed surprise that the Occupy presence has been stronger at the DNC than the Republican convention in Tampa last week. "I didn't see them at the Republican convention," said Wandra Ashley-Williams, vice president of the Maryland State Conference NAACP. "That's not good."



Lesson learned: when you approve of the use of certain tactics, those tactics WILL be used against you. The Occupiers are not your friends, either, DNC. You helped enable them. They're your problem. What are you going to do about them?

They're not a problem - they're the solution.



They offer no solution, just talk of a revolution.
They take a weak stand, and hold out their empty hand.
They talk, but few walk.
They protest, then fail to join the contest.

They are not the solution, but the same perpetual revulsion.

An Instructors first concern is student safety.
So, start being safe, first!!!

Do tell us... how that is!

The Occupiers are the grassroots pressure group that will push the Democrats into the new 'New Deal'.



Jonathan, is it difficult to keep a straight face when you say that out loud?
Please don't dent the planet.

solution to what?

the Occupy SF camp has been growing with the summer months, though still a fraction of last fall. But it's also deteriorated into a hodgepodge of scattered issues, with legalize pot perhaps being the most prominent of many. This lack of cohesion and vision is hardly new, but guarantees nothing but a foul stench on that block and the next one downwind.

That's the problem with anarchists...they are so unorganized.
People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

it's more a leadership problem ... if no one is in charge, entropy wins and nothing is changed. True anarchists are particularly vulnerable to this problem as they disdain leadership, but any mob of people is just as good as their leadership.

Yep. Just like the Tea Partyers are leading the RNC to victory with their bold new vision for America.



Tea Partyers are in the Senate, Occupiers are living in their mother's basement.

Occupy Wall Street, one of the largest grassroots mass movements in U.S. history, celebrates its one year anniversary next week on September 17, and the group has planned not only a day of protest and direct action, but also weekend workshops in which protesters will bring awareness to ongoing projects, and lay out Occupy's vision for what will happen Sept 18 and beyond. The week leading up to Occupy's anniversary will include training in direct action, reflection on the past year of popular resistance, and ultimately the Sept. 17 action on Wall Street.

So Occupy Wall Street stopped occupying? They have ongoing projects?

Been a year and they still have no vision? Damn. No wonder the movement fell apart.

The two are an obvious choice to put together in the one sentence.


I do not recall the occupy nuts affecting any elections or primary's

You can not say that about the tea party as of late:)
