No, you’re right. How the heck did she manage to catch me off guard after saying her name was “ketchup?” I shouldn’t have been surprised by anything after that.

Lol…even I hope they were just acting.

Fraid not…in another interview Colbert said he could not believe how much of a caricature they were.

He said it was one of his hardest segments not to laugh in.

ACORN Ahoy

As a member of the fifty? 49? whatever percent men are of the population I give you this!

They get offered jobs we won’t do this, that’s not good enough. I have been steadily employed since I was able to work(actualy before I got the ok to work at 15), you have to shovel a little shit and prove you can do it a job before you get a better job. I hate all these self entitled motherfuckers

The most coherent guy turns out to be an anti-semite nice Ben “the jew” Bernake, stay for the end of the video with the best line “I’m a convicted felon so I don’t follow politics” of course not sunshine

Heh.

Isn’t that why people called the tea party racist?

Right, because one jackass offering five people jobs totally augments the millions of people who are unemployed/underemployed, uninsured/underinsured, etc.

There are legitimate disagreements with the OWS movement. You, however, just take the jackass position that everyone involved is a “self entitled motherfucker”.

Well, most of what I’ve seen and what arguments I’ve heard by people I know who have gone to protest, that’s image they tend to give off to me…maybe that’s something they can work on, not coming off as “self-entitled motherfuckers”.

I gotta love the offical supporters of Occupy Wall Street. A not so random sampling of groups and people who have put messages of support and official articles supporting the OWS:

Domestic Groups

Communist Party USA
American NAZI Party
Revolutionary Communist Party
Black Pathers
Nation of Islam
CAIR
9/11 Truth
White Revolution
Marxist Student Union

Domestic People:

Barack Obama
Joe Biden
Nancy Pelosi
David Duke

International:

Ayatollah Khamenei (Iran)
Hugo Chavez
Revolutionary Guards of Iran
Government of North Korea
Communist Party of China
Hezbollah

Yep. Not getting much air time with OWS though, is it?

Big Government has learned that a major internal fight has erupted among Occupy Wall Street organizers after activists began circulating an infographic published by FastCompany, the “progressive business” magazine.

The infographic in question depicts the results of an internal online survey conducted by Occupy Wall Street supporters at occupywallst.org.

The data, compiled by advertising analyst Harrison Schultz and Ford Foundation sociologist Dr. HÃ?©ctor R. Cordero-GuzmÃ?¡n, were intended to promote the idea, as Dr. Cordero-Guzman put it, that “the 99% movement comes from and looks like the 99%.”

Some activists were outraged, however, that the survey results and the infographic show Occupy Wall Street to be 81.2 percent white, and only 1.6 percent black.

By comparison, the U.S. population is 77.1 percent white and 12.9 percent black, according to the U.S. Census Bureauâ??making the Occupy Wall Street movement disproportionately white.

The infographic, depicted below, caused instant controversy when it was shared among Occupy Wall Street organizers. One activist reacted: “81% white protestors–and you actually made a flyer proudly advertising this lie, in a multicultural city like NYC? You must be crazy and blind.”

She later accused Schultz of “insidious racism” and “white supremacy,” and demanded “serious mediation” from organizers on the Safer Spaces working group, the internal security apparatus of Occupy Wall Street.

The argument then escalated, according to Big Government sources, with threats of intervention from the “people of color working group” and the sarcastic suggestion that the analysts “join the Tea Party.”

Other activists defended the survey and confronted the original complainant, saying that she was “on thin ground” because “as an Arab, you’re also considered white in the country, by census returns.”

Schultz himself returned the accusation of racism: “I’d rather not spend what little time I have to enjoy sitting on my ass to deal with your silly bullsh**, which happens to be far more racist than any information I’ve produced for OWS.”

For his trouble, he was encouraged by another organizer to attend “anti-oppression workshops.”

The conflict apparently remains unresolved.

My thoughts follow:

Bwhahaha!

Careful what you support, you might come to regret it…At least, politically

“This is what democracy looks like!”

No. No it isn’t.

Well, actually, that is exactly what democracy looks like.

Except for Switzerland, for some unknown reason.

Them stopping the vehicle in the middle of street, with a 2yr old child in it, and surrounding it…

Time for the police to end it.

Came across this

He had some good things to say. Great finish(IMO) with a solid statement of “…end the ability (of businesses) to corrupt our gov’t.”
