most of those clowns voted for the obama and they are protesting against his major campaign contributors. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

still thinking in terms of liberal(dem) and conservative(rep) is a mental disorder. BOTH parties get major campaign contributions from wallstreet and big business. Both parties push the same status quo.

Pretty much says it all...

Hyperbole much? I think this totally misses the mark. It doesn't take but middle school level critical think to realize that eddie bauer , gap and sharpie(many of the others aren't even US corps) aren't the ones lobbying in washington and contributing mega dollars to campaigns.

I don't think anyone is going to sit there and say ALL BUSINESS is evil, and well if they are then they are missing the mark as well.

as far as i know, similar to #anonymous, there is not a single ideology that represents this movement and anyone claiming otherwise is a shill with an agenda or is clearly mis-informed.

They're communists. That movement has been around for quite some time. They are the proletariat, the useful idiots. There is a single ideology among this group of losers, and it is communism. And obama and other dems are stoking the flames.

Bad move by dems/left to side with the communists. America is smarter than that.

Line up their goals with marx doctrine, matches one for one essentially. Look at their signs and anti-capitalism rhetoric.

Straight up fucking communists. That is a FACT.

what goals? As I stated before anyone claiming to be speaking on behalf of the OWS should be approached with extreme skepticism. And I don't think they are anti-capitalism they are against our extreme perversion of capitalism.

So you are saying that they are typical pot head hippies who are protesting "the man" and have no goal?

It is comical that they are letting the unions co-opt them. Unions.. You know, those special interests that spend millions buying political influence?

Freaking idiots.

i know it human nature to want to understand things by label and categorization but just bare with me a moment and take a second to think about why else it could be they don't have a figurehead

What's funny to me is that people some how think there's a difference between who runs a union and who runs a corporation. Same fucks trying to screw the guy below them. At least goes my experience with the Millwrights and Carpenters. My dad tells me his union is much of the same.

Useful idiots. Google it. They are the tool of communists. This is nothing new, not by a long shot. Been around for a hundred years.

its comical because you think there is some figurehead "in charge" of "letting unions co-sign" them. There is no hierarchy...why is that so hard to understand. Anyone claiming to be speaking on behalf of the movement is a shill with an agenda, or is misinformed or both. If Unions wanna join OWS so be it, nobody will tell them no. If commise wanna join so be it.....If marxist wanna join so be it......if teabaggers wanna join......so be it.......u get the point?

So if the movement doesn't have an "agenda" then what the fuck are they protesting?

(And if anyone who speaks on behalf of the "movement" is an ass clown, what does that make you?)

The figurehead is Obama. This is the left, dems, unions, socialists, marxists, communists all rolled into one, this is the Obama voting block. These people aren't paid to think as is obvious by most of the interviews they are there to march and send a message(they are not sure what the message is).
