Are we for freedom and small government and following the Constitution, or are we for carrying on into an economic abyss either at lightning speed with the dems/progs or at half-speed with the country club Republicans? That's what I'm concerned about. All this schoolyard name-calling and labeling and infighting will do none of us any good when the block gets kicked out from under us.

Et tu, Big Government? Take your immature hit pieces on Ron Paul and shove it. Do you really want Obama for another four years? Do you think another RINO playing country club politics with the US is a good idea? Paul has spoken up about his stance many, many, times--he is a non-interventionist, NOT an isolationist, and he does NOT hate Jews or blacks or other races. Look at the full story and let the MSM do the "Pick a target, isolate it, personalize it, and polarize it" jobs on Ron Paul. Ron Paul is ON YOUR SIDE for crying out loud.

If the friendly fire hit pieces on Ron Paul continue, you can plan on losing me as a regular reader.

I respectfully disagree. This is real, solid info that is documented and sourced, and is therefore much more difficult to dismiss as opinion or rhetoric.

Great to see a scientific approach taken to studying and understanding the Occupy movement. For a while we were wondering "What do they really want?" and now, thanks to this study, we have a well-documented answer. Understanding the problem is a very important part of combating and defeating it.

1) These two latte sipping indie rock hipsters don't look like very happy people;

2) Notice the rumor was about Radiohead and not Twisted Sister;

3) Isn't this a violation of tort law?

Here's a great little resource: Fascism as defined by Benito Mussolini himself.
http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/mod/mussolini-fasc...

Highlights:

"The foundation of Fascism is the conception of the State, its character, its duty, and its aim. Fascism conceives of the State as an absolute, in comparison with which all individuals or groups are relative, only to be conceived of in their relation to the State."

"...The Fascist State organizes the nation, but leaves a sufficient margin of liberty to the individual; the latter is deprived of all useless and possibly harmful freedom, but retains what is essential; the deciding power in this question cannot be the individual, but the State alone...."

Ezra! FAN-tastic article on what sounds like a GREAT read! So glad to see a return to old-fashioned values being embraced like this. Thank you so much!

This is really intense. Fantastic article and I hope that this issue gets more coverage! Although I wouldn't bet on the environmentalists changing their ways too quickly, even with a Catch 22 like this in the wings. Reality has never been their forte.
