Glenn Reynolds: Occupy is full of "Filthy and Disheveled" Anti-Semites

It's amazing the WSJ prints this shit.

Bourgeois vs. Non-Bourgeois Revolutions: A Comparison and Contrast. The Occupy movement left its major sites—McPherson Square in D.C., Zuccotti Park in Manhattan, Dewey Square in Boston—filthy and disheveled. By contrast, the tea party protests famously left the Washington Mall and other locations cleaner than they found them, with members proudly performing cleanup duties.

The dirty hippie, updated for the 21st century!

And,

Scapegoating and anti-Semitism in mass economic-protest movements. The Occupy movement began as an assault on "the 1%," a shadowy elite of bankers and financiers charged with running the world for their own benefit. Within a few months, the Anti-Defamation League was noting that anti-Semitic statements and sympathies seemed surprisingly widespread within the Occupy encampments. Compare with other such movements that led to similar results. Are such developments inevitable? If so, what strands in Western (and perhaps non-Western) culture account for this?

Gosh, I don't remember any racist signs at Teabagger rallies or racist remarks and emails by prominent Teabagger leaders, do you?

Are such developments inevitable? What could account for this?

What a Putz.

Working for The Man is hard work.

When last we checked in with McMegan, she was rambling how much Obama's birth control thingy would hurt him politically. (BTW, the whole post is a masterpiece of concern trolling.)

Since then, polls have come out showing that only 61% of the country agrees with Obama -- so, oopsie!

Now, she's going full wingnut and trying to determine if which Griftland Institute's climate denial PDFs are real and which ones aren't.

It's hard out there these days for a right-wing shill.

Word.

Only TBogg

Can so perfectly connect Rick Nielsen and The Quitter.

Government Motors

Remember when wingnuts like Hugh Hewitt and El Rushbo were calling for a boycott of GM?

Well, they can suck it.

Obama's Catholic problem.

Is not a problem at all.

According to a survey, conducted between Feb. 8-13, 61 percent of Americans support federally-mandated contraception coverage for religiously-affiliated employers; 31 percent oppose such coverage.

The number is similar among self-professed Catholics surveyed: 61 percent said they support the requirement, while 32 percent oppose it.

Glenn Reynolds makes a lot of money off the government.

The problem with this country today is there are too many lazy public employees working cushy jobs that pay outrageous salaries. Why can't these people get a real job in the private sector, and stop mooching off taxpayers?

Melissa Clouthier sees too many slutty sluts at CPAC.

"Dr." Melissa went to CPAC and was totally appalled by all the whores running around pretending to be conservatives. So she came up with a bunch of rules they can follow so they won't be so whorish and slutty.

No, this isn't parody.

1. No cleavage. That’s right. Cover that up. I say “no” in absolutist terms because women will show a tiny bit and that’s okay, but really, in a business environment where ideas are the priority, a dude thinking about your ta-tas is counter-productive.

2. Skirts no more than three finger-widths above the knee. Why do I even have to write this? Well, because someone is allowing these girls out of the house with mini-skirts that reveal too much.

3. Save the stilettos for Saturday night on a date with your boyfriend.

4. Bend at the knee. No, I don’t want to see your butt.

The pro-wife beating party.

Assholes.

Silly Krugman.

Nothing Willard says is like, for reals, prof.

And by “internal”, I mean in the same paragraph:

“This week, President Obama will release a budget that won’t take any meaningful steps toward solving our entitlement crisis,” Romney said in a statement e-mailed to reporters. “The president has failed to offer a single serious idea to save Social Security and is the only president in modern history to cut Medicare benefits for seniors”.

Yep, Obama has failed to resolve the problem of excessive entitlement spending; furthermore, he’s cutting entitlement spending!

It gets even better when you bear in mind that Romney has endorsed the Ryan plan, which would abolish Medicare as we know it and replace it with an underfunded voucher scheme.

Has there ever been a candidacy this cynical?

Projection ain't just something you use to watch "All the President's Men."

I guess the crowd that and gave us G. Gordon Liddy and James O'Keefe doesn't see the slightest bit of irony in creating and promoting stories like this.

Not-so-smart.

Frothy might be crazy, but he's not stupid.

The protesters energized supporters to rally around the former Pennsylvania senator. At one point, nearly the entire crowd pointed at the protesters, chanting "Get a job." But Santorum quelled the crowd, using it as an opportunity to dig at President Obama.

"You realize that there is a group in society that is being left behind. There's a group, about one in three Americans don't graduate from high school, and almost all of them, over three quarters of them, will end up in poverty at some point in time in this country," said Santorum. "We've got to provide an opportunity for them, instead of standing here unemployed yelling at somebody, to go out and get a job and work for a living."

UPDATE

Oops, wrote too soon. He's an idiot, after all.

“I think it’s really important for you to understand what this radical element represents, because what they represent is true intolerance,” Santorum said, after two protesters were taken to the ground and placed in handcuffs by police.

The protesters, Santorum suggested, “instead of standing here unemployed, yelling at somebody” should instead “go out and get a job.”

Hahahaha.

Nice party you've got there, idiots.

Friedman wakes up.

It's hard to believe, but he's finally abandoned his Third Party fetish and realized that the problem is all the GOP.

It also gets to one of my big complaints about the word "conservative." The current GOP is decidedly not conservative, it's radical -- and it should be called such.

Oh the indignity.

Being mocked by The Quitter has to be a low point for Willard.

In an interview with CNN and The New York Times before her speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, Palin said she was confused by Romney’s declaration here on Friday that he was a “severely conservative Republican.”

“I wasn’t quite sure what the word 'severely' meant,” Palin said.

Republicans against birth control.

Heh:

Yesterday's message: the government should not require Catholic institutions to insure contraception for their employees.

Today's message: the government should not require any insurer to cover contraception for anyone.

And if Mitt Romney loses in November, tomorrow's message will be: What do you expect when you nominate a moderate?

WAAAAAAAAAH!

Classic bullies really squeal like pigs when you hit them back.
