I’m sick of politics. I sense that you are too.
So
today, I’ll let everyone else rave about Big Guy’s 2nd, 3rd, or 10th
visit with America’s most ill-humored comedian (where he explained,
among many other things, why it’s harder to campaign as an incumbent “You’ve got two jobs.” - in case you were worried that he’d forgotten about his first one).
And
they’re all talking BO’s fundraiser at Jay-Z’s 40/40 club in Manhattan
where 100 lucky 1 percenters paid $40k to hear Big Guy tell them how
Lady M is just like co-host Beyoncé (voted People’s Magazine
“Most Beautiful Woman” this year! Beyoncé, not Lady M, Beyonabitch!).
Their will, of course, be no mention of the coarseness of the Jay-Z’s
hip-hop lyrics nor the raunchiness of B’s “music” videos.
No, I don’t feel like talking about any of that.
Instead,
I’d like to spend a little time on something not getting the amount of
media play that it deserves. No, not the secret video of Romney made by
Grandpa Carter’s progeny. And no, not the Islamists around the world
torchings of all things Western either. Something more important -
coverage of the first anniversary of Occupy Wall Street which has nearly
passed unnoticed due to lack of interest.
Butt I
find it interesting…the whole concept. Here we have a grass roots mob of
ne’er do wells spontaneously erupting into protest against Capitalism,
Big Business and Big Banks. Interesting, because 99% of these 99
percenters have no working knowledge of what the basic economy is let
alone how it functions, no comprehension of what capitalism is, or how
it works, and whose only experience with Big Banks and Big Business
involves using their credit card (or Mommy’s) to buy a new iPhone.
And
now, since they don’t have jobs, the bank (or Mommy) cut off their
credit card, they need to get more free stuff from the government
(that’s you) to supplement the lifestyle they’ve become accustomed to.
They may be part of that “entitlement” group that Romney was referring
too.
Well, see for yourself:
Mounted
police prepare for the huge crowd of Owies at opening bell. It’s still
early, they’ll be here to occupy Wall Street when they wake up.
This
week’s first OWS “anniversary” looked a lot like an aging rock group’s
40th reunion tour. A bit long in the tooth and definitely worse for the
wear.
Paging Kenisha: The Chicago Teachers Union called; they want you back on the picket line for their own “exploiation”
Young
Skyler channels her grandma’s protest days: combat boots and all. She’s
repelling the cops with her good thoughts, butt still unclear on what
she’s protesting; I blame her teachers.
The
Al Gore contingency had a bit more trouble drumming up support for
their cause. I think it’s because they’re overdressed. Zelda (top right)
brought her “free” Obamacare birth control device. Just in case.
It’s
only the first anniversary of OWS, butt the Owies are showing signs of
accelerated aging. In fact, they seem to be exhibiting a lot of
Alzheimer-like symptoms. They don’t really remember how they got here,
or why they’re here, butt they’re mad at everybody. Because they want
more “stuff.”
The ones who do have their wits about
them are perfectly clear however: they are seeking social justice by
tearing down Big Businesses, Big Banks and Big Wall Street firms in
order to clear the way for Big Government to give them all the free
stuff they so richly deserve – just by virtue of living in the most
prosperous country in the world.
Butt for now,
they’re going to take a break: back to the drugs, sex and rock and roll
that brought us together at OWS in the first place.
Or, in the words of Nancy Pelosi, “God bless them for their spontaneity. It’s young,
it’s spontaneous,
it’s focused,
and it’s going to be effective.”
Phoenix believes Money is NOT the Answer. Right. The answer is “free stuff” i.e., other people’s money.
Owies: funny, even in America inauthenticity only fools some of the people all of the time.
