Video: Communists and Democrats March Together in Occupy Wall Street protest
Communists and Democrats are marching together in the Occupy Wall Street Protest. This is a must watch video that shows the real motives behind this group.
Steve Jobs vs. Wall St. Whiners and Teachers Unions
There are many theories as to who is orchestrating the “Occupy Wall Street” protests – known in some circles as “Kamp Alinsky” and “Kamp Kvetch” – in lower Manhattan and elsewhere throughout our country. George Soros? President Obama? Could they possibly be spontaneous?
No matter. The protesters and their message of social justice, socialism and general hatred of all things corporate will not affect the great majority of Americans. The average Joe and Jill are just trying to pay their bills, raise a family and live a decent life. Hence the Wall Street rabble, a motley combination of bored teenagers, old guard lefties and hard core partiers, many armed with iPhones, digital cameras and many other luxuries produced by corporations, are badly missing the mark. As usual, the protesters’ signs tell the story – none more so than the one that says, “A job is a right. Capitalism doesn’t work.” Could any serious types associate with this fringe mentality?
Enter Michael Mulgrew – the United Federation of Teachers president. Speaking “truth to power,” his tax-the-rich talk at a Wall St. rally fit right in with the angry mob that thinks wealth is evil and that if A has more money than B, A owes B some of it. It’s the mentality that thinks that there is no moral difference between Bernie Madoff and Bill Gates.
What the teachers unions really want is to make sure that every human being walking the planet who wants to be a teacher becomes one. Swelling the roles of the profession – competency be damned – makes the unions as rich and powerful as the corporations they hate for being rich and powerful.
American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten couldn’t miss the opportunity to throw in her two cents. As always, beating the victim drum, she whined about our country being on the wrong track and bemoaned the country’s “long term structural inequalities.” Whatever.

Is the New World Order unraveling?
With Greece on the precipice of default and Portugal and Italy approaching the ledge, the European monetary union appears in peril.
Should it collapse, the European Union itself could be in danger, for economic nationalism is rising in Europe. Which raises a larger question.
Is the New World Order, the great 20th century project of Western transnational elites, unraveling?
The NWO dates back as far as Woodrow Wilson’s League of Nations, which a Republican Senate refused to enter. FDR, seeking to succeed where his mentor had failed, oversaw the creation of a United Nations, an International Monetary Fund and a World Bank.
In 1951 came the European Coal and Steel Community, love child of Jean Monnet, which evolved into the European Economic Community, the European Community and the European Union. A European Central Bank and a new currency, the euro, followed.

Cain Leapfrogs Romney to Vault to Lead in Poll
What a difference a few debates can make.
Herman Cain’s star has risen steadily in the past two months, from a largely unknown CEO running for president to a top-tier candidate in the Republican field for 2012 — and now voters even rank him above the presumed front-runner, Mitt Romney, in a poll released Wednesday evening.
As GOP voters grow disenchanted with Texas Gov. Rick Perry and remain wary of Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, Cain, a onetime radio-show host and former CEO of Godfather’s Pizza, catapulted into the lead in the Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll.
Drawn by Cain’s blunt, folksy style in recent debates, 27 percent of Republican primary voters picked him as their first choice for the nomination, a jump of 22 percentage points from six weeks ago.
Romney held firm in second place at 23 percent, his same share as in a Journal poll in late August, while Perry plummeted to 16 percent, from 38 percent in August.

Holder should quit fast and furiously
Old military truism: The bad stuff settles at the bottom.
I wasn’t in basic training at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio for three days when I heard that. It came from S.Sgt. Wallace Tidwell, my military training instructor, who was a Tennessee good ‘ol boy.
Tidwell, who stood about 5 feet 8 inches tall and was as wide as a Sherman tank, didn’t use the term “bad stuff.” He chose a word that was a bit more scatological in nature.
That was the military; now that I’m a journalist, the truism has changed. The “bad stuff” doesn’t settle at the bottom. It kind of rises to the top.
That means when bad stuff happens, it’s those in charge, not those at the bottom, who need to be held accountable.

Fruit of the Arab Spring: Libyan anti-aircraft missiles, weapons flooding Sinai, likely Gaza Strip
By Leila Fadel. Large caches of weapons from Libya are making their way across the Egyptian border and flooding black markets in Egypt’s already unstable Sinai Peninsula, according to current and former Egyptian military officials and arms traders in the Sinai.
Egyptian security officials have intercepted surface-to-air missiles, most of them shoulder-launched, on the road to Sinai and in the smuggling tunnels connecting Egypt to the Gaza Strip since Moammar Gaddafi fell from power in Libya in August, a military official in Cairo said. Arms traders said the weapons available on Sinai’s clandestine market include rockets and antiaircraft guns.
The seizures raise fresh concerns about security along the sensitive area that borders the Gaza Strip and Israel, at a time when unrest is roiling the region. The addition of shoulder-fired antiaircraft missiles to arsenals of Palestinian fighters in Gaza could add significantly to the threat against Israel, whose helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft frequently patrol the strip, which is controlled by the militant Islamist group Hamas.
“We don’t want to see Egypt as a pathway to smuggle weapons,” said Sameh Seif el-Yazal, a retired Egyptian general in military intelligence who said several surface-to-air missiles have been intercepted on the desert road from Libya to the Egyptian city of Alexandria and north on to Gaza. “We believe some Palestinian groups made a deal with Libyans to get special weapons such as shoulder-fired surface-to-air missiles.”
Concerns about security in the Sinai have been growing in Egypt and among Israeli and American officials, who have called on Egypt to do more to protect the sensitive area, which borders the Gaza Strip and Israel. In the months since Egypt’s January-February revolution, the pipeline that feeds natural gas to Israel has been attacked seven times by militants. A cross-border attack by assailants in August killed eight Israeli civilians and prompted an Israeli counterstrike that killed six Egyptian troops, including three who later died of their wounds
Palestinian militants in Gaza command a potent arsenal that includes surface-to-surface missiles capable of striking deep inside Israel.

Wall Street Protester Says He’s Getting Paid To Protest
Not sure if the video below is real or not–perhaps it was created to make the Wall Street protesters look bad–but this Chicago “protester” appears to say that he’s getting paid to complain about corporate greed.
(He talks about this around the 2:30 mark and then closes by saying his “benefactors” are getting their money’s worth).
And if that’s true, it raises a host of questions:
How many of the “protesters” are getting paid?
Who is paying them?
Do the ones who are not getting paid know that some of their brethren are making more for chanting and holding signs than most Americans with actual jobs?
Let’s start with the first couple:
Who is this guy? Is he actually a protester? Or an actor being paid to undercut the movement?
If he’s not an actor, how many of the protesters are getting paid?
And who’s paying them?
