Zotted Poster and Tea Party founder (ha ha) (Karl Denninger) backs Occupy Wall Street

Karl Denninger was one of the founders of the Tea Party back just a few years ago when some concerned conservatives wanted to fire back at the government for what they said was unjust practices.

Today, similar sentiments are being echoed by the Occupy Wall Street movement.

Is it right to make comparisons between the two groups? Denninger says that, yes, to some degree the comparisons are indeed accurate. The Occupy movement, however, can learn from some of the mistakes that he says the Tea Party succumbed to.

“The problem with protests and the political process is that it is very easy, no matter how big the protests is, for the politicians to simply wait for the people to go home,” says Denninger. “Then they can ignore you.”

Waking up to a ZOT is refreshing! It is better than a cup of coffee.

[TheOldLady]

Yes, it's the ozone. Clears the mind.   ;-)

Isn’t there a poster using that handle? or just a similar one?

[Viking2002]

Good question. I think it's one and the same - he/she/it's posted frequently the last few weeks.

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

Well, well, well. Karl Denninger. Someone I never heard about, until some of his insane rantings got posted here on FR for some strange reason.

The problem for many conservatives is that they don't understand economics. You would do well to read Denninger.

I began to drift away from my daily Free Republic after 8 years when the Republicans started doing the same thing as the Democrats, which was to enjoy the trappings of Washington power too well. The Stupid Party rightly got its butt kicked in 2006.

I discovered Denninger in the spring of 2008. I now know more about economics than I thought possible. Most peoples' eyes glaze over when the subject of economics comes up. This is how the politicians & the Banksters exploit us, because the roots of their shenanigans are BORING BORING BORING.

Denninger makes it alive, and you get your economic training in small enough doses for you to absorb it.

Just remember, the meme of the MSM and the Clintonites was that the "insane rantings" of Freepers were "just about sex".

As we here know, it was about perjury, obstruction of justice and witness tampering. The current situation with Washington and Wall Street is about massive unprosecuted crime, though you may portray the people screaming about it as "insane" ranters.

Just read up on Bill Black, and what he has to say about what's going on today:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_K._Black

Bill Black was one of the good guys during the Savings and Loan Crisis of the late 1980s, and later developed the concept of "control fraud".

On June 9, 1988 the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct adopted a six-count preliminary inquiry resolution representing a determination by the committee that in 69 instances there was reason to believe that Rep. Jim Wright (D-TX) violated House rules on conduct becoming a Representative.[20] A report by special counsel implicated him in a number of influence peddling charges, such as Vernon Savings and Loan, and attempting to get William K. Black fired from deputy director of the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC) under Gray, and Rep. Wright resigned May 31, 1989 after being found guilty by the House Ethics Committee.

He [Karl Denninger] is a plant and a DU stooge.

Baloney.

Then, Karl sucked me in during the oil spill Crime, Inc. production. He lives somewhere around Destin. I was suspicious of the timing and the SWAT teams and the sinking, but he “had me at” dead dolphins.

Could you elaborate? What are you referring to? Karl has his moments where he's not taking enough time off, but I don't recall anything about the oil spill and SWAT teams...

Disclosure: I will forgive Denninger a lot (but not everything) for making economics accessible.

[kiryandil]

Yup, he was a birther, that's all I remembered about him. Birthers used to post his video as proof Hussein's birth certificate was fake. The guy is a nut.

Balderdash. Us Freepers were WAY before Denninger on the birther subject. He didn't get into it until the phony digital copies were released by The White Hut.
