"I agree they have a right to voice their opinions. But I also agreed the Tea Party had a right to express it's opinions too."
Yeah Outwest. It is hypocrisy. The Tea Party was considered violent and hate filled....
....and OWS is heralded as peaceful and non violent.

hmm... I never liked Newt much. But after watching this?
I agree they have a right to voice their opinions. But I also agreed the Tea Party had a right to express it's opinions too.
I hate the hypocrisy of some of my fellow citizens.
Although, when the OWS movement has ran it`s course the participants can emigrate to Canada, become College Professors, or go to work in Hollywood. Just like they did after the 60`s.

It's not alright for members of the public to block the usage of public spaces for other members of the public just to promote their ideas.
If I wanted to form a human in front of a high school and keep school buses from dropping and picking up students from school should I be able to? No. Is it O.K. to block a university? Of course not.
I`m not saying that I agree with the disgusting treatment of the OWS protestors in the past few weeks, I don`t. I don`t agree with how OWS is doing their protesting.
Aren`t you suppose to get permits for this kind of stuff?
Btw, Newt Gingrich is a douchebag and I hope he never takes the White House.

tommy2X4-"We want the same health care that you have"
Then do the same job he does, or one with applicable benefits. (or pay for it yourself). He gets his health care as part of the compensation for his job. I get mine as part of my compensation for my job. I perfectly happy with it. (I DO, think, however, congresscritters should get less benefits).
thubanstar-"about 99% of people not being able to find health care, not being paid a living wage even when they DO work"
So, you're saying 309 million people in the US can`t find health care? I`m not in the top 1% by far, and I have no problem finding healthcare.
And you`re also saying that 309 million people in the US make below $16 per hours? The IRS dissagrees with you. $16 per hour gives you ~33,280 annually. Seeing as the average wage is $46,326 annually, it would seem that your 99% number is a tad high.
