The Weekly Standard tells us:
In an interview that will be aired tonight on ABC News, President Obama continues to express his commitment to the Occupy Wall Street protesters.
“The most important thing we can do right now is those of us in leadership letting people know that we understand their struggles and we are on their side, and that we want to set up a system in which hard work, responsibility, doing what you’re supposed to do, is rewarded,” Obama tells ABC News. “And that people who are irresponsible, who are reckless, who don’t feel a sense of obligation to their communities and their companies and their workers that those folks aren’t rewarded.”
The president also compares the protesters to the Tea Party. “In some ways, they’re not that different from some of the protests that we saw coming from the Tea Party,” Obama says.
Really? Not that different?
In Cleveland they’re investigating a kidnapping and rape at OWS there.
In Atlanta, the OWS protesters stormed a hospital.
An OWS protester in Seattle was arrested for exposing himself to children.
They’re talking about plans to disrupt the World Series.
There is evidence of anti-Semitism.
And thievery is rampant within the OWS camps.
Yup, just like the Tea Party.

Another way in which one is not like the other: OWS will not get a single person elected.

TEA Party wants to pay fewer taxes. OWS wants to avoid paying their loans. See – the same.

Here’s my take on it; http://wp.me/pTkxi-Z3 Democrats are making a big mistake hugging up to the OWS crowd. Barney Frank is now jumping on the support OWS bandwagon at the same time he’s holding a Wall Street fundraiser in NYC…what a putz.
