11. So, this has been going on for over a month now, as it only grows

How can the media ever compare this world movement to ANYTHING the baggers tried to do that was always bought and paid for by the elites. This is a phenomena. A spontaneous world wide movement.


Where are those baggers now?


It's a good day to be alive and it's a beautiful day in Oaktown.
