The OWS signs

Interesting... 'We are the tired poor huddle masses'... I wish they'd read the next line.

"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me.
I lift my lamp beside the golden door."

Awesome words. Written as a bitchslap to Europe... who the left are now trying to turn us into a carbon copy of.

Sad. Very, very sad.

Obama was right - Americans have gone soft.
Shame too that The French that were once preveyors of "Vive la Libertie..." and the gifters of that statue...once allies of Independence...have become what they have? Socialists.

Shame they forgot why they gave it to us in the first place? But thier Revolution from thier King was quite different than ours.

Raymond J. Learsy: The Tea Party Misses the Point of OWS's Aspirations

No signs about union greed? No signs about government greed? Why is all of this directed only at 'Wall Street/Corporate' greed? They're all in bed together.

Some of their protesting I can agree with but most of it sounds like nothing more than left wing talking points whining.
 
I know what they are about. They are about shitcanning our Constitution.

The Constitution was written by rich men, for the benefit of rich men. Nothing in America has changed.

The Constitution was written by influential men with much to loose. Some were rich and some were poor, but they worked within a system they developed to protect the liberty of all. They didn't develop a system that would take from the productive and give to the indolent. They created a system that would allow, not ensure, that all could prosper if they worked hard for it.

That is one version.
 
But we were told that the TP were dangerous rogues. So what is it? Why do y'all continually change the story?

The Tea Party people were dogs with no teeth. This is not impressive if you look at the civil disobedience that ran up to the Revolutionary War. It was not peaceful.

The American Revolution was against the oppressive british crown. Get your facts straight.

You do not understand what I was talking about, perhaps you should read some more history.

Dispute my version. Be clear and concise and support your opinion with facts.
 
Probably one of the more idiotic things said on this board

Saying that you think that it is idiotic does not make it untrue.

It is idiotic, for the basis behind your statement is untrue

Just because it is untrue doesn't mean there is an inner truth to a Leftist somewhere in there. Stop being so literal, Dave. This is why the country is in the shape it's in: because people don't stop to listen to the inner truth of things.

Not a fan of The Declaration or the Federalist Papers, are you? (The Constitution sure casts YOU as a big NO seeing that was the result).

How about these signs:

"Eat the rich, they're delicious!"
They figitively want to do this, but with rich gone, who is going to provide all the jobs? These people scream about jobs, but they are starting their own businesses. So there solution to to make no job creators and no jobs!

"Money does not represent such a value as men have placed upon it"
So then why do you complain when millionaires make even one dollar, if it has no value!

"This revolution won't be privatized."
No shit, it will be publicized! What these fools preach comes right from Karl Marx!

"Change is coming!"
Yep and his name is Herman Cain - A man with solutions and ideas!

"We are the 99% <With a Communist POWER Iron Fist pic>"
If I work for a billion dollar global company does that make me or any of the people like me in the 99%? Just asking!

"The Truth is a Virus"
Interesting sign, since so many of these protesters seem like clueless, ignorant potheads!

"It's the children I worry about, it's their children"
And your solution is to turn us into the Soviet Union? End all business in America? LOL what is your solution to child obscenity - Shoot all the fat kids?

Read Chapter 3 of The People's History of the United States, and then we will have a discussion
 
I invite those with disdain for the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence to leave immediately.

Yes, because Americans are not allowed to have their own opinions. It is a free country, as long as you agree with the Conservatives.
Correction: It's a free country to all Americans who are not enemies of the Constitution.

So, you are saying that it is not a free country, and open thought and opinion is not allowed. That is not the country that I grew up in. People used to say, 'I might not agree with you, but I will die for your right to say it'. This America no longer exists, Constitution, or no Constitution.
 
Saw plenty of the 'OWS' crowd on 14th st nw in DC when dropping my fiancee off to work.... and I saw plenty of the whackadoo signs that far outnumbered any normal or civil ones... 'Impeach Bush' (uhhhh he's out of office, dumbass), Execute Bush (yeah, that's a civil guy), Limit CEO pay to 100K (yeah, such a freedom loving guy there), Free College Education is a Right (somehow I don't think that whacko gets either the concept of freedom nor adult responsibilities), Marxism NOW (no explanation needed of this loon's standing), and MANY MANY MORE....

I wanna know who teaches libtards that stuff is free? Teachers? :cuckoo:

She's not saying that at all. Stop being so obtuse. And stop bolding your damn answers, it's really annoying.
