these clowns have nothing to do….go back home
No surprise the group didn’t respond well to Geraldo. He’s a regular on FOX News where the movement has been ridiculed fairly often. What was he expecting?
douchebag alert! what a bunch of hypocrites
Celebrities tend to disappear once the cameras leave
I love these protesters!!! Go get ‘em!!!
ah, most celebrities are part of the 99.9%. get real. are they advocating they want to pay more taxes? if so bring them on. Show us the money. stand behind your convictions or go home. I somehow can’t see Alec Baldwin advocating paying more tax.
They are entertainers – many are dropouts themselves….what’s absolutely hilarious is seeing Kanya – a multi-millionaire going to support he Occupy Wall Street. Who’s the bigger fool? LOL…
The message is fairly clear:
We’re mad as —-, and we’re not going to take it anymore!
We’re sick and tired of corrupt politicians (both parties), who work for corporations, banks, and the wealthy individuals and concerns, which give them large sums of money.
We’re sick of the lobbyists, who work as go-betweens for those who corrupt our politicians.
We’re tired of deceitful politicians, who grow extremely rich while in office, as they run the country into the ground.
We’re tired of these politicians, who go to work for lobbying firms and make vast fortunes, once they leave office, thereby further corrupting the political process.
We’re also tired of people expecting and demanding money, when they don’t earn it or deserve it.
Is that clear enough?
Exactly Barry!! This movement isn’t anti-rich…it is anti-greed…..celebrities are not of this ilk, and they usually support the majority of americans as we are the ones who buy their music and pay for movie tickets. There is nothing wrong with them showing their support. Even some of the wall street mgrs can come down and support them too. If they care about the direction of this country.
Great article. I can¡¯t wait to hear more about your research tool. If it is as good as your other products, then you will have another winner. Your article pretty much summed up what I have been seeing too. Great to see some hard data.
