(13,685 posts)34. Obama could say nothing for Occupy
But he sure was full of it when speaking about Egypt. But for his own US people, he just sat and watched as they got clubbed, beaten and assaulted by many mayors.
No one peep out of his office. The last thing someone said from his office about any of us was to call us Libtards and Professional leftists. And made sure DHS spied on us.
I asked for one ounce of material that said Obama did not crush Occupy, and got zip from you. Now that I have posted about how Obama sat there and ignored (only spied) us while reveling about Egypt, maybe you can think of one finger raised for his own people? Just one little finger?
