Rev. "Hymietown" Jackson Compares Occupy Atlanta With Civil Rights Struggle
..................................................
November 3, 2011
atlanta.cbslocal.com

ATLANTA (CBS Atlanta/AP) — The Rev. Jesse Jackson is lending his support to the Occupy Atlanta movement and says that their efforts are an extension of the struggle for civil rights fought by Jackson, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and others.

Jackson visited the Occupy protesters at a homeless shelter that has become their base of operations since Atlanta police forcibly removed them from a downtown park last week. Jackson urged those gathered to keep up the fight and to focus their anger on the economic and social disparities, rather than City Hall.



Jackson is in Atlanta participating in a conference with his Rainbow/PUSH Coalition and said that the organization shares many of the concerns of the Occupy movement. He has also visited with protesters in other cities around the country.

Atlanta officials tell WGCL-TV that the Occupy movement has cost the city more than $450,000, with the majority of that coming from overtime costs for the police department.

Politico's Vogel: Cain Is "Smearing" Anonymous Alleged Harassment Victims





Poliitco's Kenneth P. Vogel appeared on "The Ed Show" to push Herman Cain and the National Restaurant Association to release one of the alleged victims from their confidentiality agreement so Herman Cain will stop "smearing" her." Transcript:



"I would say this sort of parlor game of trying to guess who the source was really misses what we think is the crux of the story which are these allegations, these settlements which he initially denied and is now admitting, which we have seen in documentation, that, in fact, proves that there was at least one settlement. And you have now the lawyer for the woman who signed this settlement urging the National Restaurant Association to release her from the confidentiality portion of it to allow her to talk about this to defend herself because she feels as if Herman Cain, (a), has violated the confidentiality agreement by talking about the settlement and also is smearing her by saying these are baseless charges.

"Well, if the National Restaurant Association comes out and releases her from this confidentiality agreement, which we understand there is a great deal of pressure within the association to do, then I think we're going to be able to put that face to some of these allegations and he's going to have a harder time brushing them off as anonymous."

We have a former president against whom credible charges of forcible rape have been made by a real woman with a face and a name, and the Enemy Press back paged it and vilified her.
