  2. Let us see now,
    In many comments by your agent, there was often mention of socialists/fascists/nazis and communists.
    The socialist/fascists is pretty much established fact. Now let me introduce to you the nazi/communist fact, right here from Gateway Pundit:
    Nazis and Communists Throw Their Support Behind Occupy Wall Street Movements
    http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2011/10/figures-nazi-party-throws-support-behind-occupy-wall-street-movement/
    While there is a certain degree of separation, the goal is common. That would be totalitarian diktat.
    How can people, that grew up in freedom, degenerate to a degree that the gimmies have, is very difficult, if not impossible to understand.
    What the hell is wrong with some people?

  3. Lev….remember…these people have a mental disease called useful idiots.And let’s not forget G.Soros is funding the OWS movement.And seeing as “movement” is synonomous with “taking a crap”,sounds like an appropiate use of the word.
    Oh.And George wants to keep the heat off his useful idiot,the Zero.

  4. The Occupy Protesters should kiss J. D. Rockerfellers A*s. Thanks to J.D. he saved the whales, he did more to save the whales than all of the eco-fascists in the world combined. He did this by innovation and investing his capital in his oil refineries to the extent that he was able to lower the cost of coal oil/kerosene so low that it was no longer viable to hunt and kill whales for their oil for peoples lamps. Whales up until this Great Old Capitalist and Industrial Baron innovated and invested his capital, whales were slaughtered in the thousands year in year out. He should be given his due for this great effort of American ingenuity and capitalism. God Bless old J.D. Rockerfeller, your my hero….

  6. A system of privatizing the profits and socializing the losses for the bankers seems to be really taking hold in this world of ours.
    I still can’t figure out how a world wide financial crisis that was caused because there was too much debt and an increasing amount of it could not be repaid can be solved by going even further into debt.
    “Among the actions being urged by Canada is for the Europeans to create a massive bailout fund to keep their banks afloat and, more importantly, to promote confidence in the markets. There is talk of a bailout in the range of $600 billion, but Finance Minister Jim Flaherty and Carney are advocating that it be much larger — possibly in the range of $1 trillion.”

  7. Pre-downfall dispatch: MSNBC’s Donny Deutsch, who supports the OWS protesters but is “repulsed” by the Tea Partiers, says the OWS protesters need two things: clarification of “policy issues”, and…

    “The other thing it needs, and I don’t want this to come out the wrong way, if we think…not needs, but will happen – if you think back to the late 60s, what is the most stirring image of all of the rebellion that happened, what do we remember? Kent State. Now, I’m not saying somebody has to get killed, there needs…what will happen will be there will be a climax moment of class warfare somehow played out onscreen that I think will, the same way 9-9-9 kind of simplifies the message, that articulates this clash. So both the real clarification in terms of policy and unfortunately some imagery says to America…I’m not saying a death, I’m just saying something that…we are a visual society..”

  14. Vίtruvius – I have to add this about your cheese article from yesterday. I am doing it here because you didn’t have room for comments. I have read in the past – but did some interweb research last night and couldn’t find another reference to it – that “processed cheese’ was invented by an american cheese merchant. At that time he was buying rounds of cheddar, and cutting of the rinds before selling it to his customers. The rinds were then wasted. With a little bit of experimenting, he devised a way to mix the rinds with other milk ingrediants and reprocess it into a usable cheese product. Thus processed cheese was invented, and that was his name for his new “cheese product”, which he could no longer call cheese.

  15. Occupy Our CBC.
    Occupy Our CBC’s “Project Vision”.
    Kill illiteraCBC dead. Pull the plug on Our CBC.
    “Project Vision is the code name the state broadcaster gave to an internal computer system built to replace dozens of older systems.”

    “CBC keeps public in dark about computer system”
    “The CBC has once again refused to release hundreds of pages of documents related to an over-budget computer system it picked up on the taxpayers’ dime.”

  16. Occupy is a socialist campaign, aided/abetted by the left MSM.
    The purpose of Occupy is “to misdirect the people away from the failings of socialism.”
    “socialism always causes poverty. Because it is a nonproductive system.”

    “Occupy Toronto planning ‘statement’ for stock exchange opening”

    Socialism:
    “It means that once certain people get control of a nation like the leftists in France have, they malign and criticize the capitalist system even when their own policies have failed. This is to misdirect the people away from the failings of socialism.”
    “Leftists are like labor unions who will picket a construction site rather than build houses of their own. Because that is the essence of socialism – grievance, complaint, rhetoric, protests, demonstrations and strikes. But never, ever does socialism do anything productive – no building, no construction, no jobs, no efficient energy, no useful products for the citizens, no stores, no factories. Which is why socialism always causes poverty. Because it is a nonproductive system.”

  17. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/economics-has-met-the-enemy-and-it-is-economics/article2202027/page1/
    “As those notions took hold, a new idea emerged that would have surprised and probably horrified Adam Smith – that economics, divorced from the study of morality and politics, could be considered a science. By the beginning of the 20th century, economists were looking for theorems and models that could help to explain the universe. One historian described them as suffering from “physics envy.””

  18. A protest gone horribly wrong?
    http://www.lfpress.com/news/london/2011/10/15/18830191.html
    You can’t make this stuff up.
    The money hit.
    “Though numbers appeared slightly higher at first glance, they were bolstered by journalists. There were actually more members of the media than protesters, and a group of Catholics who had rented the bandshell for a prayer session.”
    I wonder if the protesters even bothered to obtain a permit. Of course the question is moot if one has to consider whether it was foul weather or the presence of a catholic prayer group that scared away the mass of protesters.
    Then this..
    “Another sign-carrying protester said she has learned “how messed up the capitalist system is,” through social justice courses she has been taking at London’s King’s College.”
    And what would any of this be without an appearance by the rent-a -mob.
    “About an hour after the protest started, members of London’s Council for Canadians appeared, hoisting a giant octopus they had stitched out of a blue tarp to protest a Canada-European Union trade agreement in the works.”
    I do hope they made sure the blue tarp wasn’t produced by one of those evil corporations, or from an overseas sweatshop.

  19. maz2 @ 10:00, exactly. Instead of making more pies, socialists just want to redistribute the same pie until it is eaten and then no one has any pie…like in the old Soviet Union. And to think many professors are teaching our kids that this garbage economics is viable.

  20. Neo-AGW Progress Report.
    This just in: Occupy AGW.
    “It’s going to be pretty cold everywhere across the UK on Wednesday night, with widespread ground frost expected in the whole of the UK and perhaps air frost in places too.”
    …-
    “Occupy London goes into second day”
    …-
    “Weather expected to turn much colder before clocks go back”
    “Snow on hills and sub-zero temperatures are forecast”
    “High winds, ground frost, hail and even snow on high ground are expected to hit the UK this week, well before the clocks go back on Sunday week, heralding the formal end of summer time.
    Below-zero temperatures have already arrived – they were recorded in some rural areas of south-east England early on Sunday morning; Santon Downham in Suffolk, at -1.9C (29F), was the coldest place.
    Weather forecasters reinforced the need to get out those winter woollies just weeks after Britain enjoyed its hottest October day ever when temperatures reached up to 30C.”

  21. I demand that Israeli PM Netanyahu be fired immediately. While he continues with the senseless settlement building in the West Bank he’s rewarding Hamas by releasing hundreds of murderers and other evil people for one (1) soldier. What an idiot.

  23. Looks like Chairman Mao’s statue got mixed up with Martin Luther King’s at the unveiling ceremony.
    Whooops. Not even close looking, as well his crossed arms doesn’t show someone with a dream but a closed in plan of domination.

  26. A funny, light story by Bill O’Reilly for a lazy Sunday afternoon read. My kids enjoy walking in the forest but I do understand how difficult it can be to get them to turn off the TV and video games.
    “Recently, I had occasion to travel to New Hampshire with seven children ranging in age from 3 to 16. Don’t even ask how this happened. It was kind of like an earthquake: Things began to rumble, and soon there was destruction everywhere.
    The primary purpose of the trip was to get the urchins away from their electronic gadgets and show them the wonders of nature. The fall foliage in Bretton Woods, N.H., was magnificent…
    When these children grow up, I pray they don’t have to fight the Chinese. War is always bad. And if the Chinese are hiding in the forest, we lose.”

  28. Occupy AGW.
    Update and “Some skeptics”, “and I have a kitten,” she says.”
    “I was in a tent with three of my friends and we had probably 10 or 13 blankets, and we had them all layered up and down and on top, and tons of pillows, and I have a kitten,” she says.

    “First night a chilly one for Occupy Vancouver tent city”
    “Some skeptics wonder how long it will last”
    “The first night camped outside surrounded by downtown towers was a chilly one and the second night promises to be much the same, but the campers are not complaining. Krystal from Squamish says the first night was a peaceful one.”
