serioulsy? Where were you during all the Occupy Wall St protests? Did you see all the Dems and Media people supoprting them? Warren clearly said she supports them and their cause.

"I support the message to the establishment," House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said on ABC's "This Week." "Change has to happen. We cannot continue in a way that does not -- that is not relevant to their lives. People are angry."

To Democrats eager for a liberal antidote to the Tea Party energy that lifted Republicans to power last year, the "Occupy" rallies that started in New York last month and have spread to cities nationwide are tempting to embrace.

“Protestors are assembling in New York and around the country to let billionaires, big oil and big bankers know that we’re not going to let the richest 1% force draconian economic policies and massive cuts to crucial programs on Main Street Americans,” the group, the campaign arm of House Democrats, wrote.

I can keep googling but there is tons of evidence of the public sphere attacking the rich.

Yes seriously...and I'm sure she does support their cause. And their cause is just what I said it was....spin it as you like, but the issue is unfairness of a system that is weighted towards the money....not that some have more.

Yeah, but you know what? Lots of folks here will not admit that the Occupy Anarchists are less civilized than the tea party. That's how blinded they are. All that matters to them is ideology, and they could care less that all measurable data conclusively shows that their ideology stinks. They don't care. and here in CT, my side gets clobbered by these people every year.

November cannot come fast enough. How long, O' Lord?
