    I'm sure you will find that most conservatives were, and are, against the bailouts of these companies. In that regard, there is some common ground. That common ground ends when the protesters call for a socialistic system of Government, all public debt wiped clean, a trillion dollars for ecological restoration, and all of the other ridiculous demands that the occupiers are making.

    Exactly. The Flea Party group is extremely hypocritical, in that they only protest the corporations, and not the Government who came up with the whole idea to bail out companies. This is in line with their anti-capitalism, pro-Government standpoint. They would rather make corporations, and not the Government, the enemy.

    :-DTRUE! And many of them are still not sure what they are really protesting. You see it on the news every day.

    The Democrats insisted on TARP?

    Your history is very self serving and not accurate. The TARP vote was highly bipartisan both in favor and against.

    Your history is a bit off.

    The banks were bailed out under a different president.

    I feel I've been (*)(*)(*)(*)ed over by Democrats, liberals, progressives, Marxists, Socialists, Ivy League professors, the Mainstream media and Hollywood.

    Is there room for me?

    Im a far lefty, very proud of it. And I am a proud supporter of the Occupy movement. But I dont feel like Occupy is simply about supporting Obama. I know that I am upset at Obama for continuing the Bush tax cuts, and for not doing enough to curb corporate greed.

    Is it a Liberal movement? Mostly. I wont argue that point. But I dont think its an Obama movement.

    A lot of Tea Party types show up at these rallies as well. Not all Tea Partiers support big business. Obama has taken donations from big business just like every other politician out there, and that is one of the fundamental gripes of the Tea Party and the Occupy movement.

    lol....just another of the myths that Obama has to put up with.

    Obama bailed out the auto industry. Bush bailed out the banks/Wall Street.

    Obama SUPPORTED the bank bail out, but he was Senator and Presidentail candidate Obama when that happened.

    Exact Bush quote when it came to the bailout "We had to abandon free market principles in order to save it"

    look it up.

    Then why is ringworm, lice and TB along with other things running rampant??? These things only occur in close quarters for more than short periods of time.

    And ironically, most of these "protesters" are probably getting money free at our expense as well. Not to mention their antics are costing money at our expense.
