If I understand it correctly, the stimulus money from 2009 was not all spent, and a lot of it was set aside for future years, like the campaigning years, when that unspent money would be used to “stimulate” protests in favor of Obama and democrats, and against republicans and the “always evil” GOP and Wall Street and capitalism.

Obama is nothing more than a Marxist, and now he’s using the tactics despotic regimes in trying to convince the people that, what’s wrong with America is what created the greatest economy and country ever, that being, capitalism.

If the money for the “occupy” movement could be traced to its source, very likely we’d find it to be the unspent “stimulus” money which had been set aside for the re-election campaigns for Obama and democrats.

THIS is the truth of it all. The ‘GREED’ is not on the part of ‘Wall Street’ so much, it’s the POLITICIANS and union thugs who are inciting all this.

I think I know were this comes from. The other day a chatter friend of mine posted many pictures of the protesters in the chat room we both go to and there were either no blacks at all, or only one. Some of the left wing lunatics in the room probably went to DU and suggested to get blacks involved

They apparently have some fantasy that they’re going to overthrow the government like Egypt and that requires the military to take their side.

They ignore the fact that our military is in a whole different place, both structurally and ideologically.

What is so pathetic is that the media will not point out the simple fact that they support the president that bailed out the banks they are protesting!

The stupidity is unreal, but like the president’s lie about the progressive tax not existing, media compliance covers a multitude of sins in this messed up world.

Isn't it interesting that this OWS movement began when Obama has lost his touch with the base he counted on. Odumbo's campaigning is going sour. The crowds have dwindled, his donations are down, the deep pocket businesses aren't contributing, the adoration has almost disappeared, etc., etc. It is interesting that most of the protesters don't even know why they are there, but the Dem leaders seem to understand the message that the protesters can't even verbalize.

And Pelosi and other Dems are supporting this movement by saying that they are "admirable" rather than condemning them as they did with the TEA party protesters. And, Pelosi...is not "afraid," nor is she calling the protesters "unpatriotic Americans." The word is out in the Dem Party...this has been a major ploy to help Obama. And Obama is not hiding from this event and even acknowledges that these crowds are there. Unlike when he did not even recognize the multitudes in DC for Glen Beck's civilized and orderly rally.

And, the liberal media is participating as directed and constantly giving us arial shots of the crowds on TV and expanding the numbers in attendance, and publicizing all the other locations across the country where this is going to erupt.

It is just amazing, isn't it?

So we wonder who, why, what got this all started??? LOL. Not such a hard question to answer.

What a crime that gullible Americans are being used in such a manner by the frightened Dem leaders and anti-capitalism, America hating, power hungry, class warfare loving, cronies of Obama. It is the old tactic of firing up the emotions of anger and hatred in people...making a crazed pack out of people who have no idea how they have been duped or are being manipulated by Obama's string pullers.

Or, what a stroke of genius. Obama wasn't having any luck like in the 2008 campaign and so his handlers had to fire up the base somehow. They saw the success of the TEA party rallies...so this is their attempt at cashing in on the same, calling it a "grass roots" movement. HA! It is all part of the Dem's desperate attempt/plan to turn Americans back into bowing to Obama like the good little sheeple they were before.

Just wait, Obama will make some grand gesture to be sympathetic and appease them. He will either go speak to them or tape a special Presidential message for them, telling them he is in their corner, promising them "change," or some other hype, blah, blah, blah. Obama will become their "savior" again. And they will let it happen. Of course, in just enough time to bring the movement and the frenzied people back into his camp and to the polls to vote for him.
