Getting Paid?
The Daily Caller has just released this video of some hispanic protesters in DC, who, like most of the other protesters, don't really know what they are protesting other than "we are protesting the people who took away our money", who? and what money? None of them would or could speak english so the interviewer spoke in Spanish which helped to reveal how clueless they were about holding their signs up...and the main organizer accidentally revealed that some of them weren't volunteers, meaning they were being paid to protest. He talked about affordable housing not being available to the latino community in DC...what does that have to do with wall street?
Here's the video:
The interviewer Michelle Fields also said that some of them that didn't know English, were holding signs in English--that they didn't understand. She is going to be on Cavuto later this afternoon to speak about it.
Now I just can't stand Pelosi and other liberal politicians coming out to proudly support the unknown cause these protesters espouse. I know that these interviews of clueless people holding signs and their inane responses might be cherry picked from a crowd that may have a real purpose (i.e. the video in the former post where the guy wants to end the federal reserve..IMO he's in the wrong protest--he's definitely not an Obama supporter, which is the only common thread among the rest of them..his values are aligned with conservatives--he references Ron Paul--the "intellectual godfather" of the Tea Party movement), but it's pretty ridiculous when you compare Pelosi's response to the Tea Party protesters---a grass roots cause that wants less government spending, no bail outs, simplifying the tax system, repealing Obama's wasteful health care legislation, and basically spending less of their tax dollars on wasted pet projects and failed social programs...but the theme of the OWS protests seem to be about GIVING more handouts, and essentially hate for anyone who has money. Voicing your opinions and forming protests to promote change is what this country is about. But how has the mainstream media classified the Tea Party? As dangerous racist hick teabaggers, and according to Pelosi, "astroturf"--as if we were being paid to protest. But her response to the Occupy Wall Street protesters?
"God bless them for their..spontaneity..it's young, it's spontaneous, it's focused.."
Suspicious.
