Newsom Attacks Critic of Project Backed by Wealthy Donor
What nerve! To lecture Donaldson in this way. I have lost respect for Gavin Newsom. What pandering! He has lost my vote.— March 3, 2012 11 a.m.
Man Choked, Arrested at Occupy San Diego
Where is the sense of porportion here? Roughing up/chocking someone who won't sit up/standup, and then swears and "resists" by asking why should he put his arms behind his back. He is the face of those anti-establishment types, hated by the cops. But, they are just the public face of the 1%, following the orders of the power structure. They have to follow their orders--but please, with a little less glee. Right now, I think the OWS movement is at the cusp of leaving the "irritant" stage--and possibly and I hope, probably, entering a stage where there is some critical mass forming and there will be a societal shift towards taking care of all of us, health care for everyone, jobs, even if they have to be provided by the government, a la WPA (where is Roosevelt when you need him?). That is what those in power are afraid of. OWS = political movement, political force. Dismantle the old ways, the monied politcal power structure where the monied are coddled at the expense of the many.— November 15, 2011 12:04 a.m.
