I guess they didn't get the word that certain fatcat friends of Obama were off-limits. I once belonged to AFSCME and they're about as bad as SEIU or AFGE.

I’m guessing they’re just covering the bases for show.

If the OWS figures out who the real villains are, look for the media to turn on them overnight.

"I want to work, but when companies like GE eliminate jobs and send them overseas, it hurts us all. It's disgusting that they don't even pay as much taxes as we do! We must end corporate welfare!"

So everybody, who's Jeff's buddy on Pennsylvania Avenue??

They all go through their goofy routines and then register to vote as DemocRATS. Geesh! Morons! You want jobs? You sure aren’t going to get them in Barry’s hopey/changey Socialist/Communist country. Capitalism = jobs. Learn it. Love it.

Oops, OWS... wrong house! I’d like to be in on the call Immelt’s going to make to Obama.

Or is it just a put-on?

And, pray tell, why down here in DC are the Occupiers occupying Freedom Plaza and McPherson Square but NOT Lafayette Square Park in front of the White House with old Crazy Connie?

The first "job" they might try is clean-up duty.

Gimme a break....Somehow, taxing everybody else is gonna result in jobs for YOU?

You need to get a grip, lady.

Jack Welch did most of the stuff they’re pissed off about and they’ll never get near him. Immelt will probably do a photo op with ‘em.

GE owns 49% of MS/C/NBC.

If Brian Williams or the Star Wars lineup on prime time MSNBC didn’t report this, it didn’t happen.

Jon Green, executive director of Connecticut Working Families Party, signs his name to a giant letter left at the New Canaan home of General Electric CEO Jeff Immelt.

Big money has bought our government - and not just one side of the aisle.

They send jobs overseas for bigger profits and bigger bonuses and our government makes this profitable. This whole siding with OWS is just a big charade on the part of the rats.

We need a real American - a non-politican - who won’t sell his/her soul- to be in charge. Until we get this the rape of the American taxpayer will continue.

Thanks 2ndDivisionVet.
The crowd, which included a busload of about 30 protestors from the Occupy Wall Street movement in New York City... "We are the 99 percent, we are the 99 percent!"
The reason they don't count is because they can't count. And, since they can't do math, so, they don't know economics.

Meanwhile Immelt of GE chairs Obama’s blue ribbon committee to save jobs from going overseas. Do you see something wrong with this picture?
