    Default Protesters rush into building housing Obama campaign headquarters

    Dozens of demonstrators dashed into the Loop building housing President Barack Obama's campaign headquarters this morning, slipping past security guards and running up escalators as they kicked off what they called a "Week Without Capitalism."

    Guards locked the revolving doors, but protesters slipped through unlocked doors off to the sides. Some pushed past a security guard who tried to block their entry but quickly gave up as protesters poured through the doorway.

    Ah Yes a Week without Capitalism. fueled by Starbucks Coffee, Occutards wearing Che T-Shirts and V for Vendetta Masks (apparently all home made and weaved, with Coffee beans they personally picked) and carrying Ipods, Iphones, Kindles, and wearing GAP jeans......

    Blame talk radio, 24 hour News cycle (opinion cycle), corrupt politicians and a very gullible populace. There's hardly any news out there, just opinions, highly partisan ones at that.

    Very true. It is retarted at best. We are still in Afgan and Iraq and 90% of Cable news is about the election. I takes an effort to get the weather.

    Classical Liberalism died in 1972. After that all you had left was the crusty lice ridden social worker bean pie eating coffehouse marxists and self styled racial/nationalist/communist.

    Probably replacing it with Everybody Lives On The Dole. How do they propose to pay for it? Easy. With other people's money.

    I heard an interesting view on the new morals taught in America. Fairness is not the chance to succeed on the merit of the individual. Fairness is now the considered the taking of what is precieved as yours form someone who had succeeded. Seems the only way to make everone equal according to the current government, is to tear everone down to the same level as opposed to allowing those who want to improve their lot by striving to succeed.

    A few of them were arrested in my town last night. Drugs and things. Nothing exciting. Occupy Albany. Our town is pretty on top of this. They don't give them an inch. They allow legal congregation but, no permanent buildings and no tents. The park closes at 11:00 PM.
