"Spoiled, pampered, unfocused, clueless young people who don’t understand this country..."

[Amerigo Vespucci]

U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) slammed Occupy Wall Street protesters during a town hall meeting in suburban Gurnee, Ill. Saturday, calling the movement a "well-orchestrated, well-funded, far left effort to disrupt the American people" before admitting that he had never attended a protest.

Walsh, a Tea Party favorite who apologized last week after screaming at a constituent during a similar event, was reacting to constituent criticism of the Occupy movement when he let them know how he felt about it.

"(Occupy is) an anti-American, well-funded left wing effort," Walsh told the crowd, to a mix of applause and boos. He also said the movement was created to "rile up Obama's left base."

From what he could tell, Walsh said, Occupy protesters are "generally spoiled, pampered, unfocused, clueless young people and a smattering of other people who don’t understand this country and are advocating anti-American solutions."

3. You tell em', Joe.

Nobody can accuse you of spoiling or pampering your kids.

[Drale]

4. Man Joe is really making his case for a Darwin award

and personally I think he should be awarded one right now, while they are sterilizing him.

[HughBeaumont]

5. Yes, economic fairness, long term focus and egalitarianism are SO anti-American and Commie.

What a stupid shit. THIS complete idiot dumbass is supposed to represent the ideals and values of Joe and Jane Public? REALLY, voters?

[Enrique]

6. are we sure he's talking about OWS?

he might be talking about his own kids.

[Earth_First]

7. Hey Joe...Care to buy a vowel?

[polichick]

8. Walsh has shown exactly what he is - no reason to bother with another word from him.

[vidalarosa]

9. Spoiled, pampered, unfocused, clueless young people who don’t understand this country...

Even Spoiled, pampered, unfocused, clueless young people have the right to have their voices heard.

[Bonhomme Richard]

10. Oh. They understand it very well Joe. n/t

[Tsiyu]

12. My thoughts exactly

They understand that they are saddled with debt to obtain decent educations, in a nation that rewards high-level thieves while paying slave wages to college graduates - if they can even find a job that hasn't been outsourced..

They understand that Wall Street sold 11 trillion dollars of liar's loans and made billions off the sales.

They understand that hard work, studying and doing the right thing are not rewarded in this nation. The only thing rewarded is putting on a business suit and stealing from our treasury while killing people overseas.

And they understand that a lot of them would be doing much, much better if their parents bothered to pay child support.

11. I don't understand this country.... anymore. The PTB have created a financial catastrophe

and cloaked a lot of it in secrecy and private deal making that we on the outside, can only piece together from whatever bits of information we can glean from news stories.

I don't understand how we can now be flaunting our torture. I don't understand how we can hold prisoners at Guantanamo for years without charges. I don't understand how the entire American population isn't rioting on the streets over our grotesque military expenditures, hardware and these damn wars....

There's a LOT I don't understand Joe. Unfortunately you can't explain any of it either so if my lack of understanding makes me look like a "spoiled, pampered, unfocused, clueless" person in your eyes, I think I'll take that insult in stride as a better reflection of your own ignorance, than mine.

20. Well put!! sir. Well put.

:applause: :applause:

[CanonRay]

13. Actually, the understand this country a little too well.

and are willing to try to do something about it. Power loves ignorance.

[Downwinder]

14. Hey Joe. Why don't you get out and get an honest job?

Instead of living off the socialized welfare of the voters. While you are at it you can take care of your kids. It was your act which brought them into this world. It is about time that you faced up to your responsibilities and quit sucking on the Government teat.

[noiretextatique]

15. joe is your typical authoritarian know-nothing

he is as clueless as they come, but he is convinced that he is right. typical empty-headed rw shill.

[Rex]

16. Anti-American? Fuck him and his terrorist organization!

The Tea Party are a bunch of terrorist goons! WTF anyone voted for these idiots will stay a mystery to me. As usual, a repuke scumbag is completely wrong and just embarrassed himself without knowing it.

[Initech]

17. Tea party favorite = shill for the 1%.

[BlueToTheBone]

18. The way it runs? You mean like being a dead beat dad?

Scummy POS Joe Walsh.

[City Lights]

19. Deadbeat Joe the circus clown is passing judgment on OWS?

:rofl:

No one cares what you think, Joe. You're an ignorant asshole of the highest order. And no matter how loudly you scream, no one will take you seriously. You are irrelevant.
