Former Obama administration green jobs czar Van Jones said Saturday the Occupy Wall Street movement essentially saved the entire country from destruction.
Jones made the comments in Los Angeles ahead of his appearance at an All in for the 99% training event, saying Occupy disrupted the narrative as both parties barreling toward more austerity.
[The] Occupy movement pretty much saved the entire country from destruction, Jones said in an interview posted online. Both political parties were barreling toward more austerity, more cutbacks, more pain for the people and more basically both political parties had managed to converge on this idea of basically no rules for the rich, no rights for the poor, no middle class to speak of. That was basically the agenda, the question was just how much pain how fast.
Occupy Wall Street came on and completely disrupted the narrative, he said. All the austerity, austerity, cut, cut, cut stuff went away and suddenly even Republicans had to talk about income inequality and that whole theme. Occupy Wall Street really kind of, like, helped us to hit a reset in the country.

Not all Blacks are stupid like Van Jones.
He supports the election of the TARP administrator Elizabeth Warren to the US Senate.
So he is full of shiite,
He says “austerity” like it’s a bad thing.
His position is that Obama has done little to nothing to save the nation.
It was a bunch of Ipad carrying White kids that saved the nation.
Thanks, Nachum
It was a bit of an April Fool joke today for the “Occupy” movement.
We walked by Zuccotti Park today on our way to church. The whole area was crawling with cops! OWS has fizzled as the hippies and other morons have gotten bored, and moved on. Probably on to Trayvon demonstrations.
The joke is that there were more cops than OWS protesters!
‘The joke is that there were more cops than OWS protesters!’
I love it when a plan comes together :)

I know, yoe. It makes me sick to my stomach that many Americans voted for this person only because of his skin color, but it makes me even sicker to know that many, too, also voted for him because of his politics even though they know that communism has killed so many in the past and robs people of their individual liberty. It also makes me sick to see how the democrat party (et al) has been taken over by leftists thru the years.
They’ve drank the Kool-Aid.
