A few years ago I visited Valley Forge in Pennsylvania.
   

 
I was in Philly for and EMT conference and we decided to take a drive out there to check out some history. Very interesting place.

Last night I was downtown and walked by OWS Anchorage and was reminded of that visit to Valley Forge. It has been a brutally cold start to winter up here and these people are still there. All day, all night putting their beliefs before their own comfort. Amazing and inspiring.

I am heading downtown again and will stop in to see if they need anything and talk with them.

That's right the OWieS are just like the guys at Valley Forge, only with shoes, warm clothes, free gourmet food, Ipods, Ipads, computers, and every comfort you can imagine. Yep true patriots.

2. I have also been struck by the many similarities to the American Revolution.
   
The people who are out in the weather and being beaten by cops are true patriots.

 

As usual the DUmp is on the wrong side, they worship those who have evil in their hearts, and  those who do evil acts. Then they turn around an demonize people who have good in their hearts and those who do good acts. *nerd reference* Spock has a beard at DU */nerd reference*.

It's really funny to see the CalPig, freshly back from a long summer vacation in Iceland, freaking ICELAND, tossing crumbs to the grimy deadbeats.

All the DUmp losers who fawn over the CalPig have done that because she buys them stars.

With the new DUnumber, the free stars will dry up, and I'm sure at least a few of them have noticed her summer vacation in ICELAND.

When the deadbeats wheel out their guillotine, the CalPig's ugly noggin should be among the first they go after.

Which reminds me.

In the dozens of DUmp photo threads, where the CalPig is always among the first to post, all her photos have been of today's CalPig.

Never have we seen a photo of the '60s CalPig, or the 70s CalPig, or even the 80s CalPig.

I wonder why that is.

I seem to remember one picture of her as a young person in the 60's

She posted what was allegedly her high-school graduation picture, circa 1959 or 1960, a year, maybe a couple of years, ago.

I was struck by that she hadn't seemed to change much.
