Pelosi; ‘Occupy Wall St’ Crowd Represents 99% Of America *[Viewer Warning]

By Linda O’Keefe

Earlier this week, on ABC’s “This Week” with Christiane Amanpour, Nancy Pelosi criticized GOP leader Eric Cantor for expressing his concern for the mob-like uprising called Occupy Wall Street.

“I didn’t hear him (Eric Cantor) say anything when the Tea Party was out actually spitting on members of Congress,” Pelosi said, referring to an event that is totally unsubstantiated.

On the day that the House Democrats passed ObamaCare, then-speaker Nancy Pelosi chose to walk through the outside protest on her way to the Capitol building. This was highly unnecessary given most members of Congress use the less crowded underground tunnel.

With many videos of the crowd available, the only “spitting” incident that is documented is when a protestor was shouting and a bit of saliva projected from his mouth. However, that this saliva actually landed on a congress member, let alone “members,” is disputable.

I also would like to point out that Christiane Amanpour neglects to call Nancy Pelosi to the carpet on this inconvenient fact.

I happened to be in this crowd with my son who was 9 at the time when this went down. Like  Pelosi says, Republicans did come out to the balcony to wave to us and cheer us on. In fact at one point, I recall Republican leaders draping the American flag over the balcony and the crowd singing “God Bless America”.

A far cry from the defacing of the American flag that Occupy Movement has done.

Another relevant fact is that the New York Police Department has arrested 700 Occupy Protestors who were trying to shut down the Brooklyn Bridge. This does not stop Nancy Pelosi from calling for God’s “blessings” on these protestors.

On the other hand, Pelosi has had harsh words for the Tea Party, which by the way, has never had one arrest at any of the thousands of rallies that have taken place over its 2-1/2 years span.

Let’s recall her attack on the Tea Party… here is where Nancy Pelosi accused those who objected to ObamaCare of wearing swastikas to town halls (no evidence);

This is where Nancy Pelosi shed a tear because she thinks tea party organizers are inciting violence.

While attacking the so-called radicals of the Tea Party as racists and terrorists, the Democrat Leaders are embracing this Occupy Wall Street Movement.

They tell us this movement represents 99% of Americans, however the pictures of this movement that are coming in beg to differ.

And, please note that while the sign in the foreground may be offensive, the sign that should cause Americans to pause is the one that says “PRIVATE OWNERSHIP OF INDUSTRY IS THEFT”.

The truth is that the Occupation Movement is a movement that is anti-private property and pro-statist. It is no surprise that a leader in the Iran Revolutionary Guard endorsed this movement (and it did yesterday).

I would suspect this socialist movement warms the heart of Venezuela Dictator Hugo Chavez, as well.

As DNC chairman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz says the “democrats own the economy”, it can also be said that the democrats own this Occupation Movement. In fact, last night the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) sent out the “I stand with Occupy Wall Street” petition.

Look out guys, the Democrat Party with Obama as its community organizer-in-chief, has nothing else to campaign on but class warfare and their goal is to occupy our cities across the United States.

This is going to get worse.
