Why don't rich Democrats like George Kaiser, Pelosi's brother in law, the Fisker and Tesla backers and venture capitalists spend their own money "doing good?" And why do you think toys for rich people are good? Oh and the IRS doesn't give money to anyone.

Shocker: Video Shows NY Times Reporter Helping Lead Occupy Wall Street Protests… Don’t worry, liberal media bias is still just a right-wing myth. We on the right know this stuff about the media. It's a shame so many take the lamestream media as objective. Via Big Government: A newly-discovered video–filmed by Occupy Wall Street supporters themselves–reveals that New York Times reporter Natasha Lennard is not merely covering the protests, but is also apparently taking part in planning and executing them. In the video, Lennard is seen participating as a featured speaker in a discussion among anarchists, communists, and other radicals as they examine the theory, strategy and tactics of the Occupy protests. http://weaselzippers.us/2011/10/24/shocker-video-shows-ny-times-reporter-helping-lead-occupy-wall-street-protests/ .... deez says: October 24, 2011 at 11:26 am The liberal media’s goal today is not to report the news, it is to mold the news to present a “reality” which falls in with their worldview and biases which either means distorting the facts or making a conscious decision to not report on stories. With OWS, they know they have a raw milieu that they not only can write about, but which they also can infuse with their thoughts and opinions. The ignorant protesters can serve as the mouthpiece for the liberal media’s scripts. It makes their job even easier when they can “report” on talking points and demands that they themselves wrote for the protesters. Rob says: October 24, 2011 at 11:27 am Over the weekend, New York Times freelance reporter Natasha Lennard found herself engulfed in the crowd that entered the roadway on the Brooklyn Bridge. She tweeted at the time: ” ‘They can’t arrest us all, right?’ Asks protester. I think they can.” In her later account of the march and arrests on The Times’ City Room blog, she wrote: One by one, people were systematically turned around, handcuffed and lined up along the bridge behind police lines as the drizzle in the air turned into cold rain. I was herded onto a New York City bus with those arrested at the same time. [snip] There seemed to be some confusion among the police about what to do with us. Our bus was redirected three times from precincts around Lower Manhattan and Midtown, trying to find space to hold and process those on board. One friend, who was taken into a police van, told me his cohort was sent from Crown Heights, Brooklyn, to One Police Plaza. He was not processed until 3 a.m. Lennard didn’t return to join Wednesday’s march, she tweeted. “Can’t be arrested again on the job!” But her arrest and subsequent account have led or been mentioned in countless stories since the weekend, in outlets as disparate as The Nation, The Guardian, and The Hollywood Reporter. theatlanticwire.com ..... Rob says: October 24, 2011 at 11:34 am “Sympathetic media expressed shock that a reporter had been taken into custody by allegedly overzealous police. Only sources like Newsbusters questioned that narrative at the time. The video suggests that the skeptics were correct in their suspicions.” “In the video of the panel discussion, Lennard reveals herself to be a passionate Occupy supporter, and appears to have personal knowledge of its planned future activities, including illegal occupations of banks in New York City.” bigjournalism.com CS_GUY says: October 24, 2011 at 11:34 am Its the NEW YORK TIMES………….remember Pravda? NYT = American version……. Wouldn’t recognize subversion if it bit them on the ass………. Too busy being “enlightened”. .....
