Well I hadn't heard this and so far it looks like the cops take him about as seriously as the republicans. But my official apologies to you and the president.

I used to only expect blinders on the right, but the years (and actually considering what I read of Pynchon and others) have, for better or for worse, shown me that the left is almost equally in love with hearing it's own voices an ignoring facts, and more's the pity.

Why don't you explain to us Henry why poor Obama can't tell the Police to use restraint and to stop beating and pepper spraying peaceful protestors in public places?

If OWS wants any real cred, why isn't it gathering and distributing food in areas of people who are too poor (15% of USA is classified as in poverty) to go camp out and travel with them? How about educating people about the history of socialism and civil disobedience in the USA?
