OWS is Dead! Do you remember when OWS first marched in NYC BEFORE they even reached Zuccotti Park? They were declared 'dead' because the eternally optimistic, in denial, Wall St defenders pointed out they had 'expected 10,000 marchers and there were only 2,000. So hopeful they are, always cheering on the failure of anything that threatens the status quo.

But their dreams of failure collapsed when the always obliging thugs from Bloomberg's Army, which we used to think was a Civilian Police Force, brutally attacked a few innocent women who were doing nothing wrong and for once the MSM actually covered it. Instantly OWS was joined by tens of thousands of patriotic citizens who had the weird notion that beating up women exercising their 1st Amendment rights was totally unacceptable.

I'll say one thing about Wall St's supporters, they are not the sharpest knives in the drawer! Single handedly, the NYPD rocketed OWS to fame and success beyond their wildest dreams. We thanked them at the time.

It has to be a talking point from some memo that goes out. OWS is DEAD! Maybe if they keep saying it might eventually be true, ten years from now.
