I guess the race is on...

...to expose the real agenda before it's too late.

Who's behind the Wall Street protests? (http://news.yahoo.com/whos-behind-wall-st-protests-110834998.html;_ylt=Ahr3zVYX7mmZVzx0lquXKGJvzwcF;_ ylu=X3oDMTNvdmRrZTAxBG1pdANKdW1ib3Ryb24gVVNTRgRwa2 cDYTYxNGNhMTEtMzMwMi0zYTMxLWFkM2EtZDEwYjc3MWI2NzVi BHBvcwMxBHNlYwNqdW1ib3Ryb24EdmVyAzM2ODFkNWUwLWY1OG MtMT)


There has been much speculation over who is financing the disparate protest, which has spread to cities across America and lasted nearly four weeks. One name that keeps coming up is investor George Soros, who in September debuted in the top 10 list of wealthiest Americans. Conservative critics contend the movement is a Trojan horse for a secret Soros agenda.

Soros and the protesters deny any connection. But Reuters did find indirect financial links between Soros and Adbusters, an anti-capitalist group in Canada which started the protests with an inventive marketing campaign aimed at sparking an Arab Spring type uprising against Wall Street. Moreover, Soros and the protesters share some ideological ground.

‘Crowdsource’ This: Emails Expose #OccupyWallStreet Conspiracy to ‘Destabalize’ Global Markets, Governments (http://biggovernment.com/abreitbart/2011/10/14/crowdsource-this-social-list-emails-expose-occupywallstreet-conspiracy-to-destablize-global-markets-governments/)

I guess I was wrong, they do have a coherent message...just not one they're willing to share aloud.

But, it kind of goes hand in hand with the recent expressions, by some Democrats, that maybe we should just forget the elections next year.

Unbelievable. Next, you're going to tell me that conglomerated big business is the puppetmaster behind omnibus tort reform aimed at eradicating personal injury lawsuits, even for those who have been seriously injured at the hands of big business.

Why would I do that?

So, if this document dump, later today, demonstrates there is a concerted effort to exploit the useful idiots of the "Occupy" movement for more nefarious purposes, you're just going to choose not to believe it?

A governor suggests we postpone elections...

A Senator suggests Obama bypass Congress and just implement his jobs plan by fiat...

Communist and socialist organizations start funding and joining the protests...

Unions and typical leftist groups start supplying reinforcements...

Frankly, I think the dump of e-mails might be illuminating. I guess we'll see.

[xeromass]

Well, he has experience in taking down communists, so here's a self fulfilling prophecy for all tin-hat wearing Beck fans. But what does that make of wall street occupiers and tea-partiers?

[FromWayDowntown]

Why would I do that?

I wouldn't expect you to. Your abhorrence for directed political conduct is decidedly a one-way street in most instances.

I'm sorry to see that your sarcasm detector is broken at this time.

While my post was intended in jest, your response certainly begs a question: Other than your disdain for communists and socialist organizations, unions, and typical leftist groups, how is this any different than pro-business and typical rightist groups engaging in a tort reform movement for more nefarious purposes?

If their aim is to destabilize the federal government, you don't see a difference?

[Oh, Gee!!]

indirect links and some shared beliefs: air-tight case.

[boutons_deux]

Yoni's straw man is Soros destabilzing govt. Who else is talking about destabilzing govt? only Yoni

The Occupy XYZ people are accurately protesting the financial sector, unlike the ignorant and/or duped tea baggers, and the VRWC shill Yoni, who target all govt (and want to destroy it).

Kock Bros and other VRWC wealthy finance the tea baggers, but Yoni sees no demonization or "real agenda" there.

[Spurminator]

But he's not scared or anything.

[hater]

:lol simpleton has it all figured out

[ChumpDumper]

If their aim is to destabilize the federal government, you don't see a difference?Now yoni likes the federal government and wants to keep it just as it is.

[ElNono]

yoni still trying to figure out who these guys are :lol

[greyforest]

yoni did you ever consider that the country is completely fucked up and those people have nothing else to do?

In fact, income inequality has gotten so extreme here that the US now ranks 93rd in the world in "income equality." China's ahead of us. So is India. So is Iran.

:wow

Your honors, shit is fucked up and bullshit.

Hey pussy eater, here's succinct statement of the greivances

"But its implicit grievances are plain enough:

the mass pain of mass unemployment,

underemployment,

and economic insecurity;

the corrupting, pervasive political influence of big money;

the outrageous, rapidly growing inequality of wealth and income;

the impunity of the financial-industry scammers whose greed and fraud precipitated the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression;

a broken political system hobbled by a Republican right willing and usually able to block any measures, however timid and partial, that might relieve the suffering."

[boutons_deux]

btw, I'm sure these protests will remain symbolic, with not enough, if any, politicians elected who will address the above grievances that the VRWC strategy has created over the past 30-35 years.

:wow
Which begs the question, what's wrong with "income inequality?"

[Winehole23]

:tu Mine too.
What's in a name?

[Winehole23]

Which begs the question, what's wrong with "income inequality?"In principle, nothing. But imbalances either way can create political problems like the perception of inequitability.

[George Gervin's Afro]

Wasn't yoni making fun of these people last week? Something to the affect that most of them had no idea of why they were protesting.... and now this is an organized effort?

so which is it?

As a one-time member of the Adbuster community, I can tell you that Soros is not the grand master controlling a scheme to destabalize global markets.

As a 65+ year old white man, I am happy if someone is trying to destabalize the federal government which myself and other elderly white friends protest at our own Tea Party rallies.

All in all, we have nothing to worry about.
