Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain on Wednesday called the Occupy Wall Street protesters anti-American and anti-capitalistic.
"Don't be jealous, don't be envious," Cain said as he signed copies of his memoir. "I don't have much patience for someone who does not want to achieve their American dream the old-fashioned way."
More than 400 people attended the event. The former head of Godfather's Pizza pulled up in front of the Barnes & Noble bookstore in a black luxury bus, and he entered the store to cheers and applause.

Spot on. Can you imagine if they actually put in the effort into starting a business as they do protesting, they would be an ‘evil rich corporation’ too.

"I'm just trying to occupy the White House," Romney said.
What a complete douche. That is exactly the wrong kind of mentality We need.

Reagan was never afraid to call out the CPUSA and their stooges in the "Democrat" party.
Cain needs to follow suit.
Unlike the gutless wonders that comprise the GOP "Leadership" and are afraid of being accused of McCarthyism, lest they lose their pass to all of the freebies in DC, Cain is a self made man with common sense and needs to
START NAMING NAMES AND DESTROY THE AMERICAN COMMUNIST MOVEMENT.

That is the most weak, pathetic and self centered response I have ever heard from a candidate, what a NERD.

I want a conservative who is honest and speaks his mind and doesn’t use weasel words. Cain is the man!

Of course he’s right; it makes about as much sense to blame job providers for unemployment as it does to blame farmers for hunger.
Not that the dimwitted 0ccupants wouldn’t do that, too, if their puppeteers told them to....
