VIDEO - Kudlow & Coulter Call Protesters 'Criminals' While Avoiding Discussion Of Wall Street Crimes

CNBC Video - Larry Kudlow, Ann Coulter On Occupy Wall Street Protests - Oct. 6, 2011

Nonsense as ususal from Larry Kudlow and Ann Coulter, who choose to ignore the issues raised by the #OWS protests and instead focus on the mundane and trivial criticisms seen repeatedly from the corporate media these past 2 weeks.

Allow us to summarize the complaints emanating from Liberty and Zucotti Parks:

  1. Ongoing TRILLIONS in stealth bailouts of Wall Street via the Fed and U.S. Treasury
  2. No criminal prosecutions of financial fraud
  3. Corporate control over BOTH political parties

This isn't rocket science, people.  End the bailouts, put the crooks in jail, and get the money out of politics.  Problem solved, and the protests will end.

Otherwise, it's going to be a long 2012.

LOL, Coulter mentions Shay's Rebellion as if it were some kind of demagogic mob action that was fortunately put down. She may as well have said, as the other guest suggested, "Let them eat cake."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shays%27_Rebellion
"The financial situation leading to the rebellion included the problem that European war investors (among others) demanded payment in gold and silver; there was not enough specie in the states, including Massachusetts, to pay the debts; and throughout the state, wealthy urban businessmen were trying to squeeze whatever assets they could get out of rural smallholders. Since the smallholders did not have the gold that the creditors demanded, everything they had was confiscated, including their houses."

Financial crises, foreclosures, bondholder bailouts -- we've seen this movie before.

As uausal Ann is bought and paid for. She will say whatever it takes to noticed or put on a TV show no matter how outrageous it is. I can not put faith in someone as her who is a total phoney, fake blonde hair, fake eye lashes, fake tits, bad make-up, ass inplants and web feet. If it looks like a duck, it is a duck. I would love to see Rosi smack her in the quacker.

Chicago Traders Send A Message To The Protesters “WE ARE THE 1%”

http://4closurefraud.org/2011/10/07/chicago-traders-send-a-message-to-the-protesters-we-are-the-1/

This is the Chicago Board of Trade. Look at the windows in the middle of the photo.

CBOT isn't Wall St. They're traders, not bankers. (Think Rick Santelli.) Protesting CBOT is honestly misguided -- can't blame them for having a little fun.
Oct 7, 2011 at 2:05 PM | Registered CommenterDr. Pitchfork
CBOT is part of the problem. Traders, stockbrokers, finance scammers, (p)rick santelli, fake estate saletrash, banksters, mutual fund scammers, the whole damnable lot of them are all the same. They have inflated the prices of things that decent, honest people need to live, things like food, housing, medical care, education, fuel. They have done it to fulfill their own greed. There is not a one of them who has added one bit of value to anything in their empty little lives. Board of Trade, stock exchange, whatever. The whole lot needs to be put to useful work instead of gaming the system.

Harry...you paint with too broad a brush sometimes. You know little about markets and finance. Traders don't game the system - there's a loser for every winning trade. Mutual fund managers don't commit fraud against the American people. And the CBOT isn't the problem, it's the FED's QE which puts money in the hands of the investment banks who then bid up the prices of commodities. Another reason commodity prices have risen is the growing use of ETFs as investment vehicles. It's a complex problem, not nearly as simple as you imagine.

When the day comes we're going to need a lot of fucking rope.

Agreed, Dr. P and DB--

CBOT traders get to work at 7:15 a.m. and their trading day is done at 2:00 p.m. (1:30 for the grain room last I checked). They're working stiffs, not the elite 0.1%--not even in the ballpark.

That sign is not representative of all of them, IMO. Lots of them look on the protesters curiously, as if trying to categorize them, and are still looking on.

Coulter should be among the first to be before a tribunal when the time comes. She is a classic Tokyo Rose for the Elite.

It's Liz's birthday today so I will be away from the site most of the evening. We're going to dinner and more. I will check back in later.

Hope your having a great night out DB.

Just thought this video just goes to show that not all protestors are on the same page. Poor Adam. Protestors in DC.
Oct 8, 2011 at 3:51 AM | Unregistered CommenterDave.
According to your 3 points, the protesters should be taking action at the white house lawn or at congress.
Who bailed out the banks? Who is responsible for no prosecutions? Corporate control over both parties?

That's right! The answer is the government/politicians.

Only a liberal could be so stupid to be protesting the wrong people and the wrong location.

Kudlow & Coulter only says inflammatory remarks in an effort to maintain her job. They feel threatened by a FREE GLOBAL MEDIA enterprise in which they are NOT intelligent enough to compete.

Speaky

The location was chosen for its symbolism. Your criticism rings hollow.

Sorry DB. Meant to put this video with my post above here. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFVR9Nv43J4&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Afganistan Veteran Adam Kokesh speaking with some protestors in DC. who have a conversation with a very  differet group of protestors.  Interesting yet frustrating video watching Adam K. Trying to reson with what is seeminly a very absent minded group for several Colledge Students. 

In contrast to DB's other video of the young man on Wall Street with is a much more coherent "rant".

This group seems very off track?

Some great quotes from Ronald Regan.

Socialism only works
in two places:
Heaven where they don't
need it and hell where they already have it."
-Ronald Reagan

'Here's my strategy on
the Cold War:
We win, they lose.'
- Ronald Reagan

'The most terrifying words
In the English language are:
I'm from the government
and I'm here to help.'
-Ronald Reagan

'The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so.'
-Ronald Reagan

'Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the  U.S.   was too strong.
- Ronald Reagan

'I have wondered at
times about what the
Ten Commandments would
have looked like if Moses
had run them through
the  U.S.   Congress..
-Ronald Reagan

'The taxpayer:
That's someone who works
For the federal government
but doesn't have to take the
civil service examination.'
- Ronald Reagan

'Government is like a baby:
An alimentary canal with a
big appetite at one end and
no sense of responsibility
at the other'
- Ronald Reagan

'The nearest thing to eternal
life we will ever see on
this earth is a
government program.'
- Ronald Reagan

'It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession.
I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first'
- Ronald Reagan

'Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases:
If it moves, tax it.
If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving,
subsidize it'
- Ronald Reagan

'Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed,
there are many rewards;
if you disgrace yourself,
you can always write a book.'
- Ronald Reagan

'No arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is as formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women.'
- Ronald Reagan

'If we ever forget that we're one nation under GOD, then we will be a nation gone under.'
-Ronald Reagan

Many of those Reagan quotes are pithy, good for a chuckle maybe, but also fairly devoid of real content. He was a politician like the rest. No need to deify him, or any man.

I think that everyone is missing the point. OWS is not a narrowly defined message. It is about the corrupt system that has brought us to the brink of a global depression. We are at an inflection point in humanities progress. We can either continue the slavery of the 99% to the 1% or change the entire system. We need to following the footsteps of our founding fathers and defined a bill of economics rights. IMO one of the rights should be no private ownership on natural resources like water, oil, or minerals. These belong to the citizens not corporations. Corporations should be redefined where ownership is by the employees equally, and one advances by merit.

@ Superfly I hear ya man. I want change. I'm going with Ron Paul and hope for the best he can turn those numbers a bit.  I've been through enough on a personal level.  But I know it could get worse so.... What are we gonna do but vote and stick together the best we can.  

@ ETM I pain I see posts sometimes and a couple of times I posted a FUCK SHIT PISS kind of feel with a response.  As far as Regan Goes.... No worries man.  Last I checked he was still dead.  LOL!
It's all good man.  I'm on your side like everyone here seeking change for the better.  Just take the funny and toss the ugly.  To "deify" him as you put would be to think I'm trying to resurect the man. Just thought a couple of them were funny. Cheers Mates!

Im sure we all know Who is behind this crap. It was just a bit at first, but now the word is on the street. Free Sex, Food, Drinks, Drugs, bring your makup kit. Out do Woodstock, if you can.......And in the toilet gos the movment.....

But thats how the ( You Know Whos Behind This ) wants it to turn into......I so wish the "Movment" would ask the Low Life to Please Leave........

Apparently, there are now teenagers and young adults who have descended upon Wall Street in an effort to turn the gathering into a rave. With a “sex, drugs and rock and roll” mentality apparently infiltrating the protests, Mail Online reports:

Among the banners and flags are now discarded packets of condoms, cigarettes and bottles of spirits, while naked youngsters happily get together with just sleeping bags covering their modesty.

A box of free condoms is kept in the main area where protesters are camping.

If this is an accurate description of the conditions on the ground, it sounds more like Woodstock than it does a political movement. On Friday, alone, more than 400 people were at the makeshift city and sex was apparently a rampant occurrence.
