Reporting on the OWS haters.
It’s official: Occupy Wall Street has now become so large that the message makers of the conservative movement have set their sights on the growing protest movement.

*snip*

The strain of deep contempt is best expressed in this column by National Review editor Rich Lowry, titled “The Left’s Pathetic Tea Party”:

Occupy Wall Street is not a real answer. It is both more self-involved and more ambitious than the Tea Party. It represents an ill-defined, free-floating radicalism. Its fuzzy endpoint is a “revolution” no one can precisely describe, but the thrust of which is overturning our system of capitalism as we know it. If elected Democrats dare associate their sagging party with this project, they need immediately to consult their nearest psychiatrist and political consultant, in that order.

*snip*

Appearing on Fox Business yesterday, Ann Coulter said the rhetoric of sharing and equality at Occupy Wall St. “is always the beginning of totalitarianism.”

1. Aww, OWS doesn't have billionaire backers like the teabags.
That's makes it pathetic in GOP eyes.

The'Bag of Hammers' Party has no idea how to respond. We know how The Coultergeist can pay us off: Eat Shit and Die.

Oh but then, NONE of that could possibly be more heinous than the Workers wanting to be recognized for who they are - the REAL Job Creators. :sarcasm:

4. Tell ya what, Ann...
