#OccupyWallStreet As A Preview Of GOP 2012 Triumph

by Smitty Allahpundit: The most ridiculous (and, if you’re sympathetic to them, tragic) thing about OWS is that they’re trying to mobilize the left against “the system” at the very moment the left is mobilizing to re-elect the guy who’s in charge of the system. The system is simply over-centralized. DC’s answer to the #OWS […]

Reason TV At #OccupyWallStreet

by Smitty One is stunned, and left to wonder where these people [Update: yes, the #OWS weenies, not the ReasonTV folks, sorry for the ambiguous definite article] were for any Tea Parties?

Dear NYPD …

NYPD resisted the temptation to kill this Commie douchenozzle Permit me to praise you, courageous officers of the New York Police Department, for your admirable restraint in dealing with the smelly Marxist scum currently infesting your city. While I haven’t previously bothered to grant any underserved publicity to the vermin involved in the “Occupy Wall […]
