from the yahoo "Occupy Wall Street reaches 1-month birthday" article (did Yahoo commemorate the one month anniversary of the first Tea Party..?)
"For the most part, the protest action remained loosely organized and there were no specific demands, something Legba Carrefour, a participant in the Occupy D.C. protest, found comforting on Sunday.
"When movements come up with specific demands, they cease to be movements and transform into political campaign rallies," said Carrefour, who works as a coat check attendant despite holding a master's degree in cultural studies. "It's compelling a lot of people to come out for their own reasons rather than the reasons that someone else has given to them." "
So what exactly does a master's in Cultural Studies qualify one to do...?

Poor Mika couldn't believe the conversations she'd had over the weekend, no one gets it so she's gonna explain.
Unfortunately for Mika I showed a few of my friends who were a little sympathetic to these tards some of the #OWS' greatest hits; You're a bum Jew, creepy chanting, twinkles, cop car shittin, we can have sex with animals, etc... Sorry Mika, beat you to it, bitch.

And now our Stuttering Clusterfuck of a Miserable Failure is embracing the smelly, bestial, useless idiots, according to Drudge.
Wonderful.
And also, not surprising, since it's all he knows how to do: rouse the rabble, make outrageous demands and stir up the gullible. We should never forget his direct role in the housing crisis as an Acorn lawyer, nor his involvement with the New Party.
If this keeps up, we will have a revolution forced upon us by the left. They should be very careful what they wish for...

MR. GREGORY: But that doesnÂ’t make any sense to me. If IÂ’m already paying state taxes, and I have a new Cain administration national sales tax, IÂ’ve got more state taxes.
No, you don’t have more state taxes, you have the same state taxes — unless, that is, you don’t know the difference between a sales tax and a state tax, which would seem to be the case for Gregory. If Sarah Palin made such an error, it would be seen as proof that she was unfit for the national stage. For Gregory, well . . . draw your own conclusions. -- Instapundit

Well, at least it's not a hooker or Jon Kerry style NASA picture.

Meh. At least he looks fit, prosperous, and happy in the pic. The libs tried to hit Reagan with an attack ad back in the 80's that would show pics of ole' Ron smiling while an ominous voice over would list all manner of "bad" things he had supposedly done. Immediately afterward Reagan's popularity shot up a few more %. The image is more powerful than any other parts of the message.

I guess the writer didn't know that there is a handy phrase already in use to describe him -- a stuttering clusterfuck of a miserable failure.
He's very busy these days trying to ignite class warfare; why, even a Politico piece (which I'm not linking) dares to talk about this topic. Even the rubes, newbs, and boobs are catching on.

"The Scandal of the Secular Mind"
By David P. Goldman, Spengler, PJMedia
To Kagan, Suri, and most of the nation-builders, religion does not make a difference, for they all come out of a school of “political philosophy” that believes (with Thomas Hobbes) that religion is useful for socializing the masses but never to be taken seriously, and that what human beings really care about is individual self-preservation.
It is troubling how little capacity for self-examination we encounter in the conservative punditeska, the talking heads on Fox News and similar venues. After 4,500 dead, 33,000 wounded, and a trillion dollars, America is left with an Iraqi regime that openly supports the strategic objectives of Iran, America’s most dangerous adversary. As the Washington Post reported Oct. 8, “More than six months after the start of the Syrian uprising, Iraq is offering key moral and financial support to the country’s embattled president, undermining a central U.S. policy objective and raising fresh concerns that Iraq is drifting further into the orbit of an American arch rival — Iran.” And with the Obama administration’s reported readiness to cut and run by Dec. 31, it seems unlikely that Gen. Petraeus’ mercenary irregulars, the “Sunni Awakening,” will last very long. [As a matter of record: The American Enterprise Institute did not first propose the “surge,” the counterinsurgency plan that pacified Iraq, in 2006. It was first proposed by the Asia Times’ Marc Erikson in January 2004.]
Some of my conservative colleagues think me a renegade. The fact is that the conservative intellectual elite is sadly out of touch with the conservative base, and especially the evangelical Christians who comprise just over a quarter of American voters. During the past couple of weeks I have spent a good twenty hours on the air talking about my new book, How Civilizations Die (and why Islam Is Dying, Too), mostly on self-described Christian stations. And IÂ’ve been talking to a lot of Orthodox Jews as well, my home audience.
Talking to religious conservatives is like breathing pure intellectual oxygen. They know that there is a basic difference between a nation committed to the biblical concept of individual sanctity, and one based on mere submission. They may or may not not know Thucydides, but they know the Bible, which is a far better source-book for statecraft. In short, the religious have a better education in political philosophy than their secular counterparts. They get the joke right off, while the secular types waste the declining days of their careers trying to defend the indefensible.

The real "tell" is in the comments. Even now, after three years of the stuttering clusterfuck of a miserable failure being absolutely open about his America-hating, pro-Muzzie, racist plans, he can still draw supporters.
My worry is that enough delusional Americans will show up at the polls to give us four more years of this insanity.

A few questions pop into my head -- will he be flying the buses from stop to stop as he did this summer, with him just taking a short ride in it for photo ops? Will he lambast those evil do nothing Republicans once again for starving teachers and firefighters? Will he in general suck like a Hoover with a turbo mode?
Time will tell.
I hope Vic had some quality porch time yesterday.

This has been Barry's MO since he got into office and it's really all the community agitator knows. He's nothing more than a shake down artist like Jesse Jackson except Barry has better PR. The guy is a crooked, anti-American little prick who unfortunately got elected president

Least surprising headline of the day:
"Star Trek" actor Zachary Quinto has decided to publicly reveal he is gay in a new interview and on a personal blog post, both of which hit the web on Sunday.

Yeah, I'll give her a big hug.
She's really is having a tough time and not just with me. One of her long time friends and a member of her bridge club died recently. And the husband of over 40 years is having a tough time by himself. So she and other members are trying to keep him involved.
I'm doing fine, but very, very fatigued. It's frustrating when getting a shower wears you out.
Sounds like you may need some iron pills. They put me on those a week ago.

DC Comics kills Superman's Dog:
It was strongly hinted at in the new Action Comics #2. But from the Superman panel at the New York Comic Con, panellists confirmed it.
In the DC relaunched universe, Krypto, now Jor-ElÂ’s dog, did not make it to Earth alive.
