For them to compare themselves to our soldiers at Valley Forge is beyond the pale. I cannot tell you how angry I am.

I saw this coming from week one. And the willing dupes of the MSM will cover them as if they are at Valley Forge. The occupiers will be portrayed like Ghandis and Mother Theresas, “standing up to greedy corporate bosses,” etc etc ad nauseum.

The script for this was written long ago. As a novelist, I can tell you the next chapters. I wrote all about them in my novels, especially my third novel. I didn't have to be particularly prescient, I just had to look at the last 20 times this play has run.

This is an old, old screenplay, and all the players are in place. The wounded ex-Marine is their new martyr. Etc. Hand me a barf bag, we have seen it all before. Maybe John Kerry will come out and show them how to throw medals over a fence.

More like the Napoleon invading Russia moment. He went in with half a million and came back out with tens of thousands left alive.

I don’t remember seeing pot, bongos and iPods in the historical paintings of Valley Forge. I do remember seeing patriots dressed in rags whose skin was cracked and bleeding because of how cold it was. And they didn’t have mommies and daddies to run home to when it got too bad.

Obviously not too many former Scouts.

Valley Forge? ROTFL!

I predict “Occupy Wall Street” will go the way of the “Poor People’s March” of 1968 and the “Great Peace March” of 1986. Both of these protests were heavily promoted by the loons on the Left and got a lot of media coverage, yet they quickly fizzled out when the weather turned wet.

When OWS freeloaders start eating their shoes because they are starving, sleeping in snow and ice with only the clothes on their backs and marching hours with bloody feet in the snow and ice in sub-freezing temps to fight for liberty’s cause THEN and only THEN will I be impressed.

Until then.... they shouldn’t be mentioned in the same breath as our revolutionary soldiers.

Psst Occupiers:

If you want to make it your Valey Forge moment - do this:

leave your down LL BEAN Jackets and warm clothing home and see if you can survive without food and warm clothing!!

Those at Valley Forge were heroes. They SACRIFICED everything to bring about a Country based on FAITH FREEDOM and LIBERTY. The riff raff in the parks have NOTHING in common with those at Valley Forge. In fact they mostly would destroy what the Valley Forgers brought about...........

The soliders at Vally Forge:

(1) had guns to fight with
(2) prayed to God for guidance
(3) had a great leader (Washington)
(4) knew what they were fighting for (independence from England)

[Gaffer]

I certainly hope so...I’d like to see them freeze their pussy asses off.

[Rainbow Rising]

With the temperature dropping, they are stockpiling donated coats, blankets and scarves, trying to secure cots and military-grade tents, and getting survival tips from the homeless people who have joined their encampments.

This infuriates me. How many truly needy people could use those coats and scarves this winter? Meanwhile these pampered brats are playing at being revolutionaries on someone else's dime.
