Anyone who says nothing has changed since the 1950's is a fool.

"The modern-day equivalent...of the civil rights movement"

I know you've heard me say it before, but permit me again: It's the 2012 equivalent of Obama 2008.

Please note we have gone from “Could Obama be a socialist?”

To a full throated call for socialistic/ communist revolution.

And you're Martin Luther King Jr., right Mr. President?

Can’t believe they said “obvious parallel”. Maybe because of the leftists that were mixed into the protests of those days?

I guess it’s the change of seasons, but I suddenly feel a strong desire to kick some hippie ass.

Actually the Tea Party is the closest thing to a civil rights movement we’ve had in a while.

Right, look at the ‘President’ we have!!

Bottom line: Character STILL counts and short cuts DO NOT work!

Much has changed, but the tactics of the Left are not necessarily among those changes. What worked for them in the 1930s, 1950s & 1960s, are what they hope will work for them now.

A not so funny indication that this was coming, was observed at a reunion at my Left-oriented Alma Mater (Oberlin College), this past May, where a Professor in what was the "Government Department," when I was tearing up the campus "Liberals" as an undergraduate, was virtually licking his chops at the prospect for being able to join a 1960s style agitation. This did not just happen!

I realize that some Conservatives, today, like to pretend that the organized "Civil Rights" movement was not on the far Left, but a closer look at the personnel, tactics & demands, will tell a quite different story. All of the Marxist groups, at the time, rallied to the opportunity.

I'm not really into conspiracy theory, but this Occupy stuff didn't just start up as some grass-roots movement.

It was orchestrated to look that way.

Soros, and yes Obama and other Communists started this, comfortable in the knowledge that the Useful Idiots would come crawling out from under their rocks as soon as the idea was presented.
