It Doesn’t Get Better Than This — Occupy Denver Protesters Elect A Dog To Be Their Leader
Politicons- Politically Conservative ^ | November 8 | Henry D'Andrea

One word, LOL.

At three and a half years old, Shelby is too young to vote but not to be voted for. Last night, she almost ruined her greatest accomplishment to date when, during announcements at Occupy Denver’s 7 p.m. general assembly, she ran into the center of the circle for attention. It would be a short wait until, with a landslide vote, she would earn it. In about five minutes flat, the young Border Collie/cattle-dog mix was elected the occupation’s official leader.

I would love to see you compare this to the Tea Party! I swear these people are protesting just so us Conservative bloggers can stay in business! This is to hilarious.

Finally some brains in the movement, right!

Following I wrote to another thread on the matter last night, and I think this is more support for my theory:

“Here’s how I see it. The organization behind OWS has spread out across the country, and in some cases over the great pond. I believe their goal is to create the appearance of a majority to persuade the World to succumb to their will.

In the vast majority of the locations according to most of what I read small groups of people under the guise of OWS whatever are creating scenes for the purpose of getting noticed by the media for their outrageousness. They are making it seem this is a much bigger movement than it really is.

I don’t believe we can find any major movement involved here, but more of an attempt to make it seem that it is.

To put it bluntly I think we are being BS’d.”

In all the world wide web, the only “articles” you find worth
posting are those by this Henry D’Andrea person? Curious.

It almost seems as if you are using Free Republic to market
this Henry D’Andrea person’s substandard blog entries.

Wellll....She IS a Border Collie after all. Probably has a higher IQ than the rest of the OWS Crowd.

Whats to wonder? They’ve been spewing dog excrement for weeks, so who else would they turn to now, but to an expert on the subject?

Yep. It's the same with every left wing organization. It's an Alinski thing. Spread out and make a lot of noise. It'll appear as though there are a lot more of them.

They do this at town meetings all the time. There may only be 3 or 4 of them, but if they spread out around the room and make a lot of noise, people there feel as though they're surrounded by many.

In NYC, there's under 100. The rest are media folks hoping to catch a beating or murder, the police, piles of garbage, and a few bystanders there to witness the train wreck.

The OWS movement is actually very tiny. If it weren't for the noise being recorded by the media, they'd all be back at home with mom by now. No one would have noticed them.

Even better, they've created their own "grown up" coloring book (no joke) so they can figure out what it is they're protesting....

At least the useful idiots have some one to look up to. Maybe, just maybe, because the dog is so much smarter, they could lean something about appreciation for the people who feed them.

It's real. They really did have a COLORING BOOK printed up. It's the only way, I suppose, to teach the dumber-than-a-box-of-rocks protesters what they're suppose to be protesting about (talking points given to them in an easy to understand medium).

They could have done worse. They could have chosen Romney.

Nonsense. That's 24 1/2 in dog years.
