Sounds too good to be true.

BTW, that Soros guy sure gets around. I wonder if he bumps into the Koch brothers at cocktail parties and such.

I have never heard of this "new" Occupy movement, and I read Adbusters and subscribe to about four Occupy Facebook pages. Occupy DC is one of the most anaemic ones, btw.

Where do the Illuminati & the Trilateral commision fit in?

Oh, and don't you have a mandate to put "thugs" after every mention of SEIU?

You're slipping.

Money wasn't their problem. They had enough money for what they were doing. As I said, they should have picketed the Congress and the White House. They knew that of course, but they couldn't because their buddies were in charge.

Sorry, matt, you're going to need to preface posts like this with some sort of irony warning (I enjoyed it, FWIW.)
