I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Occupy Wall Street is anti-Obama. When this first started in Manhattan, we were shown anti-Obama signs and interviews. As it grew, those were broomed under the carpet and Obama was shown as one in solidarity with them. Many of them had voted for him, and were rewarded with long-term unemployment; like Michael Moore, they felt duped and had no problem saying so.
Many of these people are lefties, but they are NOT Obama supporters (anymore).
There is just such a logical disconnect there. If you are a leftist, you should love Obama. You will never get a president that far to the left of the political spectrum under our current system. I guess they like the idea of socialism, they just don’t like its results.
