Zotted Poster and Tea Party founder (ha ha) (Karl Denninger) backs Occupy Wall Street
Russia Today (Go Vlad Go!) ^ | 10/14/2011

Posted on 10/14/2011 3:17:45 PM PDT by Beckett08

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.”

I have no idea what to think of what is going on in the world today.

This one is easy. Every group has its malcontents and its publicity hogs, Denninger appears to be both of those.

The OWS crowd couldn't be more different from the TEA party in a general sense. In any way would care to compare.

Thats easy enough to understand, right?

I had never heard of him. The Tea Party events I went to were run by Roger Hedgecock.

Why would I want to go to a communist / socialist website of Moscow news to have stories about the tea party?

True. The silent majority turned out for Nixon in '68 in much the same climate as we have now...

The Tea Party has not been silent though... there have been marches on the mall and numerous gatherings in towns all around the nation. I think we will need to stay vigilant because this OWS is not going away... they are funded. These leftist causes are astroturf and planned.

Such a propaganda lie would be published on "rt.com" a Russian disinformation "news" organ.

Just the sort of source a the OWS commies would approve of.

Why are you using it?

To stay informed as to what the opposition is up to. Why did someone just post what Ed Schultz just said?

those who are OWS are confused. If they’re against bailout, then you protest the government, not WallStreet. Tea Partiers are against bailout as well

I have to add. One of the very first beginnings of the Tea Party was when Ted - I forget his last name - and his horse Thunder rode from the mid west to DC during the Clinton impeachment.

It was covered quite heavily here on FR and brought so many conservatives together!

We lined the route, helped Ted and Thunder along the way, and more importantly connected together via the internet. Talk about social media!

It was a congealing moment. We realized - as Rush and others had already pointed out - Conservatives are not alone! We are Middle America!

After the ride we gathered not just here on FR but on other websites, in homes and eventually in the Tea Party movement.

Thank you Jim Robinson...the check is in the mail...REALLY! Today was payday, LOL!

I didn’t see you take issue with the lie. All you did was post it as if it was true. That’s not keeping others informed that spreading the propaganda!
