OWS is going somewhere or something

On OWS... and where it is going

It's a boring day - I've got nothing to do
Except to get a load of retards and drive 'em to the zoo

Oh oh oh takin' retards to the zoo [x2]

Load 'em on a bus just for laughs
Down a winding road stepping on the gas
Down a winding road just daydreaming
Down a winding road with the retards screaming

Oh oh oh takin' retards to the zoo [x2]

One of them blowing a big spit bubble
Slam on the brakes at the first sign of trouble
Head on collision bodies everywhere
Head on collision retards beware

Oh oh oh takin' retards to the zoo [x2]

Today it went into occupy foreclosures. The parallels to the 1930s are there. Mark my words, as this goes further down the rabbit hole, we will see more of these parallels.

Are you talking about the people on the Ed Schultz show? I hope as the foreclosure date nears that a very large contingent of OWS shows up. And by large I mean massive. Hundreds of people, just to stand in the way. Let it go to court and let it be the beginning of getting some justice.

I tried to DUrec this thread but the count is still one. Is there an unrec link? Or is it just a glitch like me not having my avatar? God! I hate not having my avatar. I created it in Photoshop.

2. More than the Ed show.

Though that was a national day of action. It is becoming more and more political in some traditional ways. In others remains as unpredictable as ever. The strike on Monday will be a long day.

There was a national day of action?

6. When will see actual results instead of the OWS flavor of the day?

you are highlighting the main problem with OWS - a broad unfocused message. When are we going to hear about OWS meeting with the President and Congressional leaders to discuss actual legislation?

7. If you want to give us information, give us details.

If OWS is doing good things, we want to know and appreciate it.

If this is just another 'look at me' thread, forget it.

10. You can't even explain what your OP means?

What does OWS going 'into Occupy foreclosures' mean? Tell us.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

OWS is going to that Irish town, O'Blivion.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Go to court and stand in the way?  The primitives have a rather strange idea of how foreclosures are finalized.

I think the "movement" will be reinvigorated when nutty nadin's big essay comes out.

When that essay hits the street, that'll be The Day When Everything Finally Changed.

Until then, all them things will just keep getting worst and worst.

21. yes

we need to get back to genuflecting to the wonderful person who tells us every day where OWS is headed.
"It's a surprise, I can't tell you" is so VERY informative.

23. I like surprises.

It's a SPRING SURPRISE, which makes it double-good.

Spring is only 4 months away. But I don't know if that's calendar months or 'business' months, do you?Idealism is fine but soldiers win the war.

28. In the spring them surprises will be heaped upon us, but until then things will get worst and worst.

Or they won't, it depends on the arc of the scripted trend.

20. The 'recording' wars...

...reached a sad new zenith one day when an entire thread of 37,552 posts was composed of nothing but 'This is a recording' responses to each previous 'This is a recording' post.

Skinner and the DU admins attempted to isolate the thread but it overwhelmed the servers and soon every DUer's computer was infected and all spoke in unison, 'This is a recording. This is a recording.'

President Rush Limbaugh called an emergency meeting and made plans to drop a nuclear device on DU 'to protect the homeland'.

31. I don't know

but I'm looking forward to a new thread tomorrow entitled "On OWS... and where it is going."   Should be packed with more information.

Oh noes... bullies.

18. From context I think

OWS will occupy a number of foreclosed or about-to-be foreclosed homes until A) they are arrested for trespassing and possibly jailed for actual stretches of time or B) get bored and wander off to do something else.

Some mocking of the OWieS? Nadin won't like that one...

Comedy gold.
I'm surprised Nads hasn't self-deleted this one, too.

Finally, she gets someone to make a worthy comment.
Look who it is.  Nads very own understudy.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948
