OccupyHawaii.com, an anti-capitalists web site linking itself with the Occupy Wall Street movement now entering its third week in New York City, has this to say about its reason for wanting to protest the wealthy in Hawaii [snip] Ironically, on the Hawaii web site, the protesters are accepting a number of ads from capitalists organizations, such as Ford, Solar Energy Hawaii, Aston Resorts, Pond5 (the world stock media market place), and college recruitment groups.

what’s an “anti capitalist?” is that a catch-all for socialists, communists, fascists, etc?

the GOP when asked about these protests should reply

“I understand why they are angry, this administration has lost so many jobs and people want jobs. They see an economy which has got worse under this president and they are angry.
I understand why they are angry that Wall street has given millions tom this administration and how they have helped ot bail out certain companies while backing companies like GE which send jobs to China”

Anybody who wants a free ride.....

Fine. As long as the leftist slobs are finished with their silly smelly "OccupyHawaii" protest by mid-January...

BTW I'm looking forward to OccupyBemidji and OccupyElSegundo protests. Surely the rich in those places need to be taught a lesson, too.

This must be a contest. Those who show real spirit in NYC can win a free trip to Hawaii where they can show their liberal friends just how to stink up the place. Zero has got to love this. Stink-foots on the airlines will hurt the airlines. The reporters will be eating each other alive to go to Hawaii and cover (wink, wink) the “huge” protests. The local Hawaiian separatists will all show up and nobody will miss a day of work.

This is turning into a bigger fiasco with each passing day. It sure would seem like someone would tell these morons exactly why they are “occupying” a place. ROTFL! Hell, those hippies and college morons don’t care. They’re only there for the pizza and Beatle music anyway.

Caller to Rush show on thursday told a story, her daughter who was in college called her extremely excited about a FREE trip she was going to take to Washington for a demonstration, FREE bus ride, FREE food, we're going to have so much fun. CLUELESS, BRAINWASHED GENERATION either jumping into something they know nothing about or claiming they know everything about it until you question them and its deer in the headlights time. They are being manipulated, coerced, promised material things or fed propaganda and the dream of not having to pay thier student loans back if this works.

This part made me smile:

The benign radicals sat listlessly on stools and chairs holding signs reminiscent of Woodstock that read Stop the Wars and Make Love Not War.

As evident in some of the responses, the graying hippies didn't much care for words such as "benign" or "listless" being used to describe them. Heh.

The Googlebots are not too bright.

For example, if you read a Steve Jobs obituary, you will see a lot of ads from job-placement firms.

I would imagine that multiple mentions of Wall Street, banks, and wealth set off these ads.

Bored huh.

We should pass out Brownies made with Exlax.

We will just say we are handing out Medicinal Pot Brownies.
