Brad, is that YOU???
You are both f’ing class warfare idiots who are acting like petulant children on FR.
I live in the burbs and work in NYC and stay at the W Hotel on occasion at the corporate rate. NO one ever pays 700/nt for a stay at the W, no one has paid that much since early 2008.
Every Newspaper in NYC had articles about the paid for protestors on the ‘Day of Action’, every one of the job postings on Craigslist, El Diario La Prensa and VillageVoice were for separate events run and organized by the unions, the same unions who used strong arm muscle to explicitly forbid OWS protestors from entering the union organized protests, including OWS protestors with NYPD and DC Metropolitan PD Press Credentials.
SO STFU you annoying little twits, some of us have had to deal with this shit on a daily basis and are getting pissed at both the protestors and the idiots like Hannity and Rush who are agitating on the other side using gross mis-characterizations of the facts on the ground to win political points in flyover country.
