Occupy Wall Street -- Community Organization at its Finest
I kept seeing a certain someone posting the most absurd things about these silly protests that have been going on for the last 3 weeks or so. Stuff like this crap:
I finally had enough. I couldn't take the propaganda any more. For anyone to take Michael Moore seriously, or consider him to be some kind of a reliable source of information, must have their head screwed on backwards. Do they just ignore that the man has been proven over and over again to be a liar?
Does it sound like Moore is encouraging violence? It sure sounds that way to me.
I love how Moore, once again, just can't get anything done. He wants his books pulled from the state of Georgia but, they just can't do it. Isn't this the same song and dance he did when he took a major tax cut. He just wasn't allowed to do anything else. It's always the same with these people, they just can't do anything! They are total victims of circumstances, refusing to take any control over their own lives. This is a guy who cannot even control what he puts in his own mouth, and I'm supposed to take him seriously?
Wall Street is filled with liberals. The financial market has been overrun by democrat thugs for years in this country. Second of all, what exactly do they want?
We've had TOO much regulation, not too little. So they want more regulation, for more corruption? They want to drive everyone that provides a job off the soil of the United States. They live in a fantasy world where they believe they should get anything and everything for free.
Truth is, they are just a bunch of communists who are being paid by community organizations.
You are NOT 99% of the population! You are taking too many drugs if you believe that nonsense. Stop it! Wake up and smell the coffee. Normal people do not think like you.
These are the same people who take the Bible out of context, protesting that we should never judge. Talk about the ultimate judgement - telling someone how successful they can be. Who the hell died and made them in charge of that determination? Unbelievable hypocrisy once again being demonstrated from the left and they have NO shame about it.
I don't know what world they want to live in but, it does not seem appealing at all.

Cain Interview With Lawrence O’Donnell
The problem with our media? No shame. O'Donnell is downright hostile towards Cain in this interview.
I cannot believe O'Donnell suggested Cain avoided Viet Nam. Unbelievable! He was okay with Clinton dodging the draft altogether though, right? To somehow suggest that John Kerry wasn't afraid? This is a guy that went home for having received 3 purple hearts over a burn, a piece of metal, and a paper cut. John Kerry brave? Pfft. Don't make me laugh. I take that back. It does take a lot of courage to be male and have so many Botox treatments.
Liberals just cannot stand a black person who thinks for themselves. It is entirely a frightening thought just for them to entertain.

"Blame Yourself"
Spencer Platt/Getty
That is the message president hopeful Herman Cain is giving to those silly Occupy Wall Street protesters.
This is why Cain resonates with so many people. Like it not, we really are in control over our lives. It is extremely hard to admit this to yourself, if you have been sold a lie all your life that you are just a victim of poor circumstances your entire life. Once you begin to take the journey into a life of personal responsibility, even if you have downfalls (which you will), you free yourself of worrying so much about others. You must take responsibility of yourself, if you ever hope of helping anyone else.
Okay, I'll get off my soap box here...now the question I really have is - what the hell are these protests about anyway? I have not really heard what it is they are hoping to gain by protesting. What exactly are their demands? It just seems to me they are a bunch of bored thugs.
Cain suggests that these protests could be a movement orchestrated by Obama and friends as a way to deter from the real issues at hand like, say, oh...poor investments by the administration.
I'm not really sure. I suppose anything is possible but, one thing is, it does seem to be another left-wing movement designed to stir up trouble, having no clear vision.

What's the Deal With Solyndra?
Washington Post
In a nutshell, Solyndra was a company that made some thin solar-cells that made up solar panels, and failed because it just could not compete in the free market with standard solar panels. The Obama administration is responsible for providing capital funds for this company and according to emails that have been recently released, the administration was considering forking even more tax-payer dollars into this company, despite warnings from the Solyndra auditors that they were failing -- miserably.
Sounds pretty bad, right? I think the big scandal here is the pure hypocrisy that the left has demonstrated. Isn't this type of "back rubbing" exactly what the
So, now you know ANOTHER way to shut up a democrat.
Here's the other scandal:
The money that was intended (so we were told), to help create jobs to stimulate the economy, was given to a business that was poorly structured and clearly lacked longevity. If the private sector is not funding something, that should be clue number one to government officials that the business probably sucks. Our money was just wasted by the government in some risky scheme, yet these are the same folks that shout from the mountains if you suggest that people run their own retirement funds?
So, let me get this straight liberals, if the government takes your money and puts it into investing in companies doomed to fail, that's okay. If the government suggests that the individual have more control over the money they earned, that's wrong.
Again, these are the same people who have difficulty in understanding why we believe they are insane with mental disorders.
