The demand for peer reviewed articles was silly. What is this, medical research?
No it is a demand to have something of substance such as real journalism. Not opinions inter laced with opinions, blog spot article with some slack jawed self proclaimed expert on social issues or some kid with a ged. This is a method often used in disseminating disinformation you see .. something of fruition. often the lunatic fringe recoils at the idea of critical thinking like here and now.edit on 23-12-2011 by Unknown Soldier because: (no reason given)
Plenty of left-leaners are mad at Obama. They just think he is not left enough. But you are right, I don't know you and you don't know me.

You and Kalle have a lot in common,and No,its NOT out of context,but continue to brush it in BIG strokes,to fit the agenda. I gave you proof in his own words ,many times.
No i really cant relate to the guy that much actually, if i were a co founder I would have done things much differently. The fed would have been target number one. That was another air ball from you, characterizing me is not going to benefit your argument.

I know that wasn't a reply to me but your post did bring something up. Several months ago, I did bash the Tea Party, I thought it was full of racists etc. I bought into the MSM portrayal and of course youtube videos confirmed those stories in my mind. A few ATS members set me straight and I let them, I trusted what they told me. Now that doesn't make me agree with TPM, I'm not a conservative and never will be, but I won't bash them especially now that I know what it's like to be on the receiving end.

See you use the word "Teabaggers" and in doing so you reveal your leftness. You can't fool people for long.
Gosh darn it you blew my cover aww shucks
No not really, I am not a registered democrat. I am registered independent nice try though.
Teabagger does fit the mold though, see i don't have to be polarized to call you a teabagger or a ows squatter. I have distanced myself from both wings of the same bird. If i just sit back and wait for both sides to eliminate each other then what would that make me?
Do you have a label for us Indie folks?
Perhaps at some point we can see a hybrid movement come out of both OWS and TPM. Neither side has to convert, or even particularly like each other. Simple tolerance is plenty when we all agree the current majority of elected leaders aren't working.

i second your sentiment

OWS may or may not have "failed" in this phase, but it is the perception of failure that will likely spur the next, and more active, phase.

EVERYONE knows Americans are fed up. We need a Unified movement,that isnt Left or Right. I for one would gladly protest.I went to Tea Party Rally's,and to OWS in my city. My first step is to vote for someone I believe in,this coming election. Second, is to recall congress.Because that NEEDS to happen.Im not going to camp anywhere,but when I have to,I will visit DC,and protest there. The only signs that should be seen is "dont let the door,hit you on the a$$,on your way out."

I don't know that it will be as violent as you seem to think it will be - but I've been surprised before. You may be right - but I'm hoping you're wrong
I wanted to quote much of your post - but I'll just say - a star for the whole thing
