Wow, there are OWS people who are nuts. Go figure. Does that make the TP's who are nuts any less so? No, it just means that they TP's and OWS folks have some friends who are just as bat chit crazy.

The Tea Party is all inclusive.
Just exercise your First Amendment rights by dishonoring the flag by wearing it.
They will think you are an American.
While I do agree with some of what they are protesting about, you are correct in the corporate branding.Most of what I've seen at Occupy "protests" seems to be a bunch of students or unemployed college graduates (and maybe a couple union guys on their day off) sitting outside and holding signs, many while also sipping a Starbucks or munching away on Subway and listening to their iPods. Most of whom were probably led to believe that they'd go to college and walk into a well paying job, and never considered that they'd actually have to work for their money.
And yes, it does look like they're overwhelmingly white...
Oh, and just like the progressive rallies in DC, lots of trash sitting on the ground because progressives would rather guarantee work for the sanitation workers than clean up after themselves...
Nothing says "protest Corporate America" like holding up a sign condemning it and simultaneously holding or using some of the more successful signs of Corporate America.
From chaos comes order.
Remarkably well organized event......globally. I read where the chosen one and the hero's on the left will use OWS as their campaign platform against those dastardly conservatives. Should be lots of tv ads with angry anti-corporate wonks with signs and so on and counter ads with interviewed demonstrators being asked why they are there.....lots of footage with blank expressions and 'I dunno'.....should bode well for the Haavard crew again.
Useful Idiots?
Read one the movers behind OWS was trying to get all the US home owners who have under water mortgages to stop paying for six months so it would foment another '08 banking crisis...cool......Steve Lerner......SEIU wonk......
Usefull idiots? Are you talking about the OWS crowd or the Tea Party folks?
