Meet America’s 53%–and They Have a Message for the 99% Protesters

Meet The 53%. Who are they? The term 53% refers to the people who are actually paying taxes for themselves and the rest of the country.
The 53% is a group of responsible young people organizing across the country. However, this group is not camping out in parks around the country and demanding the entire capitalist system be destroyed. These men and women have jobs (most of them work at more than one job in order to make ends meet), but they are talking about attending the Minneapolis Occupy Wall St. protest scheduled for today – Friday, October 7th…
…Filmmaker Mike Wilson (the man who gave us “Michael Moore Hates America“) maintains the page. We spoke with Wilson this morning and he explained that the 53% tumblr page came from his brain and the clever minds of his pals, Erick Erickson of Red State and Josh Trevino…
The complete article, with additional photos and video, is at The Blaze. Mike Opelka included his 53% story, too.
The Virginian has a photo from a 99%. We couldn’t quite believe our eyes, but Moneyrunner wrote, “No joke.” You must see it to believe it.
Herman Cain says the “Occupy Wall Street” crowd should move their protests to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
At Big Government, The More the Hippies Protest Wall Street, the Lower Obama’s Numbers Get
…regardless of the claims to “Occupy Wall Street” in order to protest alleged financial wrong-doing (which is just leftist jargon for “shame on you for making a profit”), the real impetus because the gathering of these dirty hippies is union-sponsored socialism.
And President Obama is encouraging it.
That’s right, our sitting president is cheering the hippies on as they shut down traffic, drag their tarps from corner to corner, defecate who knows where, and dance in the streets with signs about the supposed wonders of socialism.
Not so ironically, the president’s already low poll numbers have fallen even further with these fine, upstanding citizens occupying our streets. (I guess they’re citizens, but to honest, the way Soros and Obama work, who knows?)
For example, the Gallup poll released on Friday, October 7, showed his approval rating at a miserable 38% and the disapproval numbers at an overwhelming 58%. (I could be wrong, but I think even Jimmy Carter laughed at those numbers.)
Nevertheless, on the same day that the Gallup poll was released, President Obama stood behind a podium at the White House and told Americans: “I think [Occupy Wall Street] expresses the frustrations that the American people feel. …People are frustrated and the protesters are giving voice to a more broad-based frustration about how our financial system works.”
Note to President Obama: It’s not working…
From the NH Tea Party Coalition, Soros Hires Actors to Stage Violence
Occupy Wall Street is one huge ‘false flag’ operation.
This ‘movement’ has always been the creation of the vast left-wing network of Soros-funded entities. This is why you see signs supporting totalitarian centralized government providing free health care, free college, free housing, open borders, enforcing confiscation of property from the ‘rich’, and everything else in Soros’ Open Society agenda, even cries for the re-election of Obama…
Soros employees have even staged violence to gain sympathy for these radical communist causes. This is the mark of a ‘false flag’ event from some very desperate elites (Soros, etc) who know that when both the right and left are onto something, it poses a very dangerous situation for their own survival…
Read the whole thing, watch the videos, decide for yourself.
