Women are going to have to realize that living in a co-op means surrendering your body, regardless of whether you think the guy is hot or not.

Just asking?
Actually, you don't even have to look for it...I know I don't....there is like 5 news site I frequent..some of those lean left and most, if not all of the time, the sick stories about OWS are front page, no need to go looking for them...

and I would hardly call it a "smear" when they are the ones perpetrating it..he or she was just reporting it....

I am curious what our resident "intellectual" liberals will say next to excuse, deflect, downplay this crap for if 1/10th this crap came out of the Tea Parties the left wing blogshpere and MSM would have had a field day..

you know, with the double-standards and hypocrisy and all..

OWS needs a platform of 3 or 4 core ideas that EVERYONE gets behind
and it needs a second act.

BINGO!!! Yet, there seems to quite a few "supporters" when there is no clear agenda. It started out with "down with government, the banks, big business", and its down "to give me your money", "give me a free college education", "give me a job", blah, blah, blah, not to mention all the bad things going on. There's more bad going on than good, if there is any good going on.

Just like the Tea Party started. A few people concerned about something, then all the hangers on, professional protesters and weirdos start showing up hoping to get something free.
