So,
I have heard of the movement, uhh, I've seen it on TV.
You aren't going to let that one go, are you?
Did you think he would?
Okay, I've been following Occupy Wall Street closer than President Ohblahblah will admit.
You know it's part of his daily briefings right?
And night time briefings, and noon time, and . . .
Yes, I know. He's a smacktard but that is not the point of this blog at all.
Is there going to be a point?
Enquiring minds want to know.
Not a single point, no. That would not be in keeping with the theme of this blog, would it?
Theme?
<shrug>
First, the good news. The propaganda media, with the exception of Faux news, has finally come to grips that there is a very clear message to Occupy Wall Street. It only took them a month to finally admit it. They were probably hoping that the protesters would go away before now but, unfortunately for them, we are into month two with protests around the entire planet. They, except for Faux news, have finally started letting the world know what we already knew. You can't have a country by the people for the people when you auction off votes to the highest bidders.
Ya think?
Didn't we know that before the protests?
Now, the big question that seems to be on everyone's mind is what is the president going to do about this whole thing. The consensus at this date is that he has to be very careful. He needs to acknowledge the frustrations of the people that he has screwed over but at the same time he doesn't want to get in bed with him, as one of his spokespeople was quick to point out recently. I was kind of glad to see that the Great and Powerful Oz was letting other people do the talking for him. One of the reasons he was elected was because he was more articulate than King George.
So are my farts.
Hard to lower the bar from there.
Without a teleprompter, dude is losing His composure. I think he'll get re-elected because the Republican candidates are utterly batshit crazybut by year seven, it's going to be like watching an episode of Beavis and Butthead.
Heh, heh, your name is Bush, heh, Bush, heh, heh.
He's got his people StatusQuo.org MoveOn.org and the unions down there trying to steer the whole mess but he can't get too involved. Faux news is trying so hard to turn Occupy Wall Street into Tea Party Left that it's become a joke. Now, it's possible and quite likely that many of the Faux news people are really as stoopid as they sound but it's also possible that they have been told to do everything they can to turn OWS into Tea Party Left. The establishment cannot let this anarchist movement to go on indefinitely. The people must be divided into the two sides and pitted against each other. Right now, you have communists, Obama cult members, Independents, Ron Paul republicans, Anarchists, and everyone else meeting every day discussing solutions. Actual, real, solutions. This cannot be allowed to continue. If the people ever figure out the solution, there will be an immense exchange of power and, quite frankly, this is not something that sits well with the people currently in power.
So, Faux news continues to lie to the point where their reporters are hazed if they even bother to show up near Wall Street.
Because I care so much about the main stream media, I am going to do them a favor and list the top ten reasons why Obama has to pretend to empathize with the 99% while not getting any of their taint on Him:
1-8. He's Wall Street's bitch.
9. Faux news is already trying to say that the Tea Party is better than OWS because Tea Partiers don't get arrested. Tea Partiers also don't get anything changed.
What a coincidence!
I know.
Every day that nothing is done to appease the protesters while beating them over the head with NYPD nightsticks brings this whole thing one day closer to massive violence. If Obama cozies up to OWS and then it goes terribly awry, the Republicans will use that in the 2012 election.
"Yeah, we should be locked up in padded rooms but at least we aren't inciting violence."
10. Obama has already alienated much of his base because of his hypocrisy* and getting behind the protesters today and then sending in the National Guard with water canons next week will only make this worse. He would be giving the Republicans ammo while encouraging even more Democrat voters to stay home on voting day.
He's stuck in a tough spot between the votes of the 99% and the money of the 1% and he has to walk a tightwire between them.
The media is missing or hiding a key message from OWS but I'm not going to go into now. I'm sure there will be time. It doesn't look like this is going to end any time soon. I know that several people have hoped that snow will drive the protesters away but none of them have sounded too confident that it will actually happen. With the EU collapsing, there's a good chance that this thing is just barely getting started.
No matter were it goes from here, the conversation and a search for real solutions has been started. People are waking up. That has always been the most critical factor.
* It's only hypocrisy if you actually believed Him in the first place.
I saw his lips moving.
Always a clue.
