Occupy Your Mind

The Liter is disappointed to see the societal misfits that are Occupy Iowa/Des Moines were given a permit to camp out in what David Goodner is calling the People’s Park.

That should have been a given since the Goodner hails from the People's Republic of Iowa City.

Hey "Dumbass", that park is courtesy of the people that pay taxes and I'm betting there aren't too many of those in your movement and the scientific community is united in that fact.

As part of obtaining the permit, the misfits may not use sidewalk chalk on the grounds or deface state property in any way which Sonya Heitshusen reported occurred (to statues) on Sunday.

Meanwhile, back in the People's Republic, UI History Professor Shelton Stromquist, who studies social and labor issues and the Iowa labor movement, was quoted regarding the movement...

“It’s frustration that the Republican-controlled congress has been so unwilling to address the need for equality and the growing need for jobs, and it’s frustration with the Obama administration for being unwilling to take a stand against people profiting from the recession”.

We'll have to give the Professor a failing grade as control of Congress is split between the Dummycrat controlled Senate and the Republican led House.

My tax dollars not at work there.
