So funny. Read the other day how WS didn’t like Perry much. They weren’t going to give him their money. No money, but he’ll get tagged as a big friend. Republicans should go along with huge tax increases on the rich, but go after the areas most densely populated by liberals. If they want to wreck the economy, do it right, starting with the people that want higher taxes.

How will the Democrats solve the problem of the demonstrations? It is their people that are demonstrating.

They'll be gone once it starts raining.

Of course he will, it’s all he’s got. He’s bleeding wealthy donors by the barrel.

I maintain my belief that he is pulling a ‘scorched earth’ strategy (if you can call it that). He knows he’s done, he’s determined to take the rest of America down in flames with him. He’s inciting these loons...ad sooner or later, it will erupt...likely egged on by the thug chapter of the unions.

Be ready, be safe.

Yes but it is the dirty protesters sreaming about taking stuff that America sees and to me it is like the 1968 democratic convention all over again....

This whole thing has been nothing but a Democratic campaign strategy from minute one. Hussein’s policies failed and now he needs to divert people’s anger. Queue Obama’s sudden shift to the more obvious populist left, and a bunch of leftwing groups suddenly out protesting Wall Street and corporate America. All part of the left’s plan. Don’t bet on it not working either. It could be effective if conservatives and Republicans do not respond quickly and point out what is really going on.

I think 0bama’s next move in the plan will be the race riots. He may not get to play this card if Cain runs against him.

The real tragedy is how many do not have a clue, even on Free Republic.

I agree with you. Anyone who knows a thing or two about the Russian Revolution and the French Revolution, knows that humans are always capable of full scale class riots and class warfare. This could be coming, with the fans being flamed by the Prez himself.

Fine. Let him say that the GOP is in bed with Wall Street while admitting that the Dems are in bed with Greenwich Village.

Between this White House, the Fed, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, tax dollars in the market, it’s hard to tell where the line is between Wall Street and Government, but it isn’t hard to tell that the Democrats own this. The rabble mobbing Wall Street doesn’t realize how much of their imaginary enemy has already been socialized by their idiot idols of the left. God save the real corporations and the banks that have paid back Obama’s slush money and resisted the commies.

If the Dems plan to do that they will have to dump Obama because he has zero credibility on that issue.

He has taken more money from Wall Street than any Republican has ever dreamed of doing.

Except perhaps Mitt Romney.

Do you think those leftists care that Obama has taken more money from Wall Street? They don’t. Yesterday it was a chore for me to get home from work as those yahoos were blocking the streets. They should be grateful that they live in America and not somewhere where water cannons, rubber bullets and attack dogs are the order of the day.

The burgeoning of populist protests in New York and other cities shows that resentment over the economy is growing,

Not populist at all, just a creation of Democrat allies. It's theater.

Democratic strategists are moving aggressively to show that President Obama and his party are taking steps to solve the problem

They're not moving, they were involved closely involved in these protests. They want these phony events.

while Republicans are standing in the way.

Voters chose Republicans in 2010. It's Reid and Senate Democrats, along with Obama who have stood in the way all year while Republicans have tried to address the problem. The House passes bill after bill and they're tabled by Reid's do-nothing senate.

Make no mistake about it, when the GOP captured the House, Dems pivoted to be obstructionist in the Senate. They knew Obama could run against a "do nothing congress" but by focusing on the Republican-controlled House give the illusion it's Republicans who aren't doing anything. They knew the Media would be complicit with this narrative and they were absolutely correct.
