These are professional "protestors" who have time on their hands and money to burn...

Oh, absolutely!

I call then Professional Malcontents- if it weren't this, they'd be whining about some other vaporous "injustice."

Visit their sites and links and note well their hyperventilating over Israel, "corpratism," and other imagined evils in the world.

I note with annoyance that we are already in a state of emergency, starting this Monday, and my planned back-roads route to the store has portable signboards by the road, indicating that it, too, will be under enhanced scrutiny. Pests!

My question is, who pays for all this buffoonery?

Obviously none of these "people" have full time jobs or they would not be able to pick up and follow the G8 so easily, especially to a lot of the conference venues which are at expensive resorts.

But if they don't work where are they getting the money from?

Soros???
