    Oh no. His internet ego is far too large to leave it alone. He must justify his dishonesty in his own mind before he leaves.

    Ah, how cute! Amazing that neither of you can say this to me, but rather you sit there and gossip.

    Oh no that message is quite coherent, you see the protestors want to take from the evil rich people to give to this less fortunate...yet, those very same people are taking from those less fortunate, claiming that those people are just moochers of society.

    Irony:

    b : incongruity between a situation developed in a drama and the accompanying words or actions that is understood by the audience but not by the characters in the play —called also dramatic irony, tragic irony

    Obtuse avoidance of every point I made noted.

    Obtuse refusal to actually explain your position noted.

    Pathologically obtuse and petty nitpicking noted!

    We're just waiting for you to take a position of some sort. Let us know when you've decided what it is and we'll happily address it. Until then, you're just engaging in obtuse nitpicking and inflammatory trolling while pretending not to, your specialty!

    I'll buy a bit of that.....what I won't buy, however, is any notion of equivalence between the monetary and societal costs attached to the lefts absurdly expensive, highly regulated, confiscatory/redistributive, open borders, PC/multicultural, "victim" coddling, collectivist agenda....

    and the largely free, Constututional constructionist, personal responsibility/accountability and "godly morals" agenda sought by what leftists deems the "extreme, social conservative" right.

    As a bit of a libertarian/anti-federalist/tribal anarchist hybrid, for me, it all boils down to maximum individual liberty, ongoing fiscal sustainability, and the vicious defense of both....

    without such, IMO, all other social quibbles are utterly pointless.

    Couldn't agree more. For my part, the conservative penchant for social engineering is far less damaging and pervasive, though it's still a problem that I would like to see rectified. I may not agree with them, but the core of their belief system is much more amenable to me than their leftist counterparts, who are just a bunch of neo-marxists with no conception of our history or tradition.

    If I were you, I'd call up OWS and get some answers for your well intentioned questions. Please do share with us the results of your inquest.

    Or you can just drive down and see what is up for yourself. Not all of us has that kind of time to waste.

    I think on this narrow issue the OWS are the 1%, they have plenty of food, more than they really need, and the Homeless are the 99%. Don't the 99% have a right to the property of the 1%.

    Why don't the OWS give away their fair share?

    Also heard on the radio they are going to start applying a 50% tax on performers (their tips) and merchandisers. I mean do they deserve to keep it all?

    :puke:Well just how weak is the homeless person trying to get a loan at a bank. Maybe the Occupy will work on that later.
