Elizabeth Wydra engages in a bit of fantasy over at The Politico, hoping against hope that the voices on the right will be shut down Of all the possible outcomes being tossed around as the Affordable Care Act litigation heads for Supreme Court consideration, one is usually overlooked: If the court upholds the act’s constitutionality […]

Just like during the Tea Party rallies….no? Funny, the media tended to call the Tea Party violent because people were bringing guns, in complete obeyence of the law, to the rallies. Yet, no one was shot during the rallies. We also didn’t have people pooping on cop cars, either (SF Chronicle) A young man was […]

One would have thought the “enlightened” liberals, who always preach on about tolerance, women’s lib, respect for others, and treating others with kindness, would have been able to have a protest movement that highlights their self promoted values. Alas, no (NY Post) Send in the cavalry! The NYPD has moved three elite Manhattan homicide detectives […]

Whew! And here I thought that all the police reports, arrests, and interviews with people both inside the Occupy movement and in the surrounding area were actually facts (NY Times) The arrest of a Crown Heights man last week on charges of sexually assaulting a protester at Zuccotti Park added to an already raucous public discussion […]

Remember, this is just like the Tea Party (NY Post) A business owner near the Occupy Wall Street encampment claims she has been repeatedly harassed and threatened with bodily harm by protesters after she and her employees refused to give in to their outlandish demands. “I’ve been told, ‘Watch your back!’ 10 times,†Stacey Tzortzatos, […]

Remember, this is just like the Tea Party, attempting to shut down the democratic process (Huffington Post) Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad (R) told reporters at his weekly press conference Monday morning that he is taking a threat by the group Anonymous to shut down the Iowa caucuses seriously, even as members of Occupy Des Moines […]

In all seriousness, I want the Occupiers to keep their little slice of insanity (violence, criminality, etc) up for another year and 2 days. The longer this goes on, the more people get an eyeful of what the Left, especially the Progressives, stand for, and, by extension, what Obama, Pelosi, and a good chunk of […]

Hmm, considering how often sexual assault seems to happen amongst the Occupiers, perhaps “erect” is a bad choice of words (via Jammie Wearing Fool) (NY Post) It’s a safe house from the sex fiends. Zuccotti Park has become so overrun by sexual predators attacking women in the night that organizers felt compelled to set up […]
