$8000. A DAY IN DONATIONS.

FREEPATHON WOULD ALREADY BE OVER!

I’m assuming this doesn’t include what some of the protesters are being paid to be there.

NYC is the ‘Useful Idiot’ capital of the world. No doubt about it.

Are they paying their fair share in taxes....?

This country will get the government it deserves.

Read Isaiah chapter 3.

It will explain a lot of what you see in OWS and its supporters.

The term "useful idiots" has been attributed to Lenin, as a description of those mindless people in the Western democracies who would always find ways to excuse whatever the Soviet Union did. Columnist Mona Charen's new book Useful Idiots shows that such people are still with us.

Long after the Soviet Union's horrors had become too widely known around the world for their sympathizers in the West to be able to get away with whitewashing the USSR, new Communist dictatorships arose to become the new objects of the affections of the Western intelligentsia and of like-minded people in the media and in politics.

That money should be going to pay the overtime for the cops who should be pursuing violent criminals and potential terrorists not babysitting misanthropes.

There is no way to confirm these numbers since there are no laws regulting disclosure. Even so an average of 5000 slimeball demonstrators per dy for 35 days or so have pulled in about $8000 per day or about $1.60 per day per demonstrator.

I don’t find this at all impressive and I note we have heard nothing of any other areas having any success with donations. It’s clearly not a grass roots movement with the likes of the SEIU,NEA, Nazi party and Communist Party all on the scene. Plus we have the word Soros is behind this and is more then likely responsible for most of the money being handed to the creeps.

And they try to equate these people with the TP movement? What’s REALLY funny is these scumbags spent the last 2 years denigrating the TP calling them every foul name they could come up with and now claim to be just like them.

Inded, liberalism is a mental disorder.

How can these loonies have somebody with a “business background” in their midst? To listen to the parade of kooks and crackpots, I thought that any business people are the enemy. I’m surprised they allow this dude to be part of their group.
