Granholm: 'I love the Occupy Wall Street movement' [Mega-barf]
Current TV ^ | 11/15/11 | Current TV

Posted on 11/15/2011 7:19:24 PM PST by Numbers Guy

Jennifer Granholm, host of "The War Room," says she loves the Occupy movement and discusses what she'd like to see come out of it. She also says she's excited to join Keith Olbermann and Cenk Uygur in their coverage of the protests, which balances the mainstream media's focus on scattered clashes with police and other skirmishes.

“These people couldn’t even spell “Bankers””

So what. They’re right about the government having been sold out. As long as being a congressman or a senator is a gateway to major wealth, IMO you’ll never have government for the people by the people.

They don’t seem to have that much of a problem with the current White House Occupant, or Pelosi, or Harry Reid, etc.

“They don’t seem to have that much of a problem with the current White House Occupant, or Pelosi, or Harry Reid, etc.”

The bit of it I’ve seen, which by my own admission isn’t very much, they seem to have a problem with almost everybody in government that they see is beholden to interests other than their constituents. And they seem to be against the special interests being able to warp the government by buying it. I thought that was why they were purposely not putting up people as leaders so it didn’t get hijacked by either political party..
Look I get it get you hate them, so as far as you’re concerned everything they do is wrong. I’m not going to try to talk you out of that.
I see you’re a Florida Gator. I hate Tebow, but me hating him doesn’t make him any less of a good football player.

I hate Tebow,

Well that's certainly one thing you have in common with the OWS losers.

Lol. I don’t really hate Tebow, I don’t follow football enough to care. I just was using that to make a point that while I may cringe when I see how embarrassing some of the OWS group can be. That doesn’t negate any valid points they have.
I’m more about achieving my ends over disagreeing with somebody just because they look funny. I think they have it right on special interest money having too much sway in our government. I think that breeds waste and corruption and whatever I feel about the protesters as people doesn’t negate that.

So basically you’re just a brownshirt with less courage than most.

You should man up and get out there and take those banks down.

Then you’re a coward and an idiot.

Not only are you too stupid to know what the problem is, you don’t have the manhood to deal with it yourself.

Hard to debate a reasonable statement like that. You disagree so I’m a brownshirt Lol.
As far as taking down the banks. I keep my money in a CU and have for years. I don’t think the people camping in parks will be the ones to get anything fixed. I do however think that this has caught the attention of a lot of average Americans who agree that banks and other special interests hold way too much sway over our government.

Another well thought out statement lol.
So I take it then that you support special interest money corrupting our federal government.

Like I said earlier, the fact that they look weird doesn’t negate the parts that they got right. There is too much corruption in the federal government and special interest money is a large part of that.

If I recall, you wrote to me first and called me a brownshirt.I’m sorry that you seem to lack the ability to debate a point and not simply name call.
It must really suck to be you.
Have a nice day and try not to get your head stuck in a bucket lol.

MICHIGAN PING LIST

Please freepmail me if you wish to be added or dropped from the mitten ping.

I think a Nuclear Barf Alert is more in order.

I spit coffee all over my dad’s kitchen table the other day when he called her the two headed monster from Berkley.
