Somebody writing at the Tina Brown Newsweek doesn't care for those Occupy Wall Street protesters, not at all.Heknows, from his professor job at Yale and writing books about how people should be religious, that there's no evil group of rich kleptocrats running the economy and the government to their advantage. What a wacky idea: "Few of the world’s ills are caused by nasty cabals full of rich people. Conspiracies of the wealthy are fun to imagine—in my novels I invent them often ...."
How long did it take for us to realize what the Tea Party was protesting (a bunch of shit that didn't actually happen, such as the Obama tax hikes, or that had happened during the previous administration, such as massive increases in government spending and the bail-outs)? I'd say Occupy Wall Street is ahead of the curve.
I've always heard that Yale is the kind of school where they pick people out they think will be successful in the future, then drag them kicking and screaming through 4 years of college to graduation.
Bob Hauk: Straight just like I said. Snake Plissken: I'll think about it. Bob Hauk: No time. Give me an answer. Snake Plissken: Get a new president! Bob Hauk: We're still at war, Plissken. We need him alive. Snake Plissken: I don't give a fuck about your war... or your president. Bob Hauk: Is that your answer? Snake Plissken: I'm thinking about it. Bob Hauk: Think hard. told you I wasn't a fool, Plissken. Snake Plissken: Call me Snake.
well, yes but you have to admit: the baggers had such a lock on a jewel like message: clear, conside, focused. generations will be looking to baggers for political strategy.
