Do we need to get NATO to come in and protect OWS?
Why do Libyans get more protection and have more rights than Americans?

Why is our gov't all gung ho about Iranian, Egyptian, and every other people peacefully rallying for change, and then get all Bull Connor on Americans who seek improvement in their lives -- and who aren't even demanding regime change? Yet.

1. Right up that alley, the Twitter accounts for Committee to Protect Journalists
have been SILENT about both Amy Goodman's settlement and the beating of journalists in New York. They tweeted a picture of a reproter being beaten in Greece, I tweeted back video of one being clubbed in NYC. They are right leaning shills, mostly, in ngo drag.

2. Not until they're surrounded by tanks...
...let's not be precipitous.

Let's be tendentious instead.

3. I wasn't aware the government was machine-gunning OWS protestors.
Christ, what a stupid post.

Like NATO did?

Conformists are so dull.
