#1 He might mean that welders and machinists in the middle states should overthrow the "upperclass twits of the year" type rich assholes in Los Angeles and Noo Yawk who screw us over and keep us from working for a living.

But the probable rich spoiled little bourgeoise asshole probably doesn't mean something like that.

#2 Paleostan theory - even if the leadership were golden apple pure in intention and dialogue, there are those factions who will grab the torch and charge anyways. I'm afraid this is what is going to happen here with the snookipy movement. Going to be interesting. Closing the Brooklyn Bridge during work travel and attempting to sturm perhaps the most popular museum in the US is a poor start to the original gang, nevermind what will happen when the real loons, like this goof, steal their brand.

#3 Think you all are right, we need a program and score card to see what ranking we all are, so as to what color cloth to hang out the window when the organized and quite polite retreaders knock door to door, asking for fair share. Of course, to pick up you have to go to central processing, sign on the line, and hope you don't get robbed on the way back to your approved living quarters.

#4 Any universities burn [other than after a sporting event celebration] after Kent State?

You think the National Guard types are going to feel solidarity with the cuddled middle class wannabe revolutionary types that supported the other side when their buddies and comrades were dying delivering the semblance of real democracy to real poor? Not the poor with cell phones, wide screens, and subsidized housing that puts the hovels of the ME to shame in basic amenities.

#5 Considering who's backing these clowns, anyone thinking these are simply the useful idiots for Obama's version of the Red Guard to keep the party members in line and from deserting to the political center? They know its not going to effect the right, but its to put a chill into a primary challenge within the party. You go down with me or split the party and go down anyway because my goons will hound you to the end.

#6 Remember, the translation of 'Bolshevik Party' is 'Minority Party'.

Say, how are the Mensheviks doing these days?

#7 Oh yes, there is definitely going to be bloodshed. This is one of those be careful what you ask for scenarios. There might even be a CW-2.

I'm sure there are plenty of folks looking forward to dispensing some serious payback onto these scumbaggers. I know I am.

#8 These people keep spouting this shit and keep forgetting who has the guns and the support of most of the military.

So please, make my day punk.

#9 Interesting examples from the historically illiterate speaker.

French Revolution led to Twenty years of Napolean, dictatorship and war and a general draft that put commoners on the front line like never before.

Ghandi's revolution convinced the British to peacefully leave the colony rather than gun down thousands on the way. And the poverty did not come after the revolution.

#10 You know I think the people MOST fooled are those who describe themselves as middle class.

I'd say if you could afford someone to work for you around the house full-time you're middle class.

Automation grabbed the need for someone to do this then government grabbed the spare cash.

#11 My bet: one of the usual La Raza f**k-wits.

And "Bolshoi" does not mean "minority" - quite the opposite.

But yes, it was a lie. Go figure.

#12 Hey, big Sis sick-em. I'm tired of her sitting on her hands. A fireman stops a fire. A Cop stops a fight. Rosy O'Donnell stops a stops a train. Well you get the idea. Just, don't do nothing, do something.

#13 Isn't this clown off-message? I thought it was supposed to be 'everyone' against the 1%. Led (of course) by parasites such as the speaker.

"Long live revolution! Long live socialism!"

ahem...

#14 I remember how the Democrat party tanked in the 1968 election after their infamous little gathering in Chicago. So please, all you occupiers, do your thing. When the American people see riots in the streets it's usually not good for whichever party is in power at the time.

#17 Funny stuff at OWSpickuplines

@derekahunter I don't know why I'm here either. We have so much in common!

@DanaPerino I could get lost in your bloodshot, burned out eyes.

@kiradavis422 I luv how u reject the fascistic American standard of beauty by refusing to shave, bathe or wear attractive clothing. Its hot.

@DonnaBonnell You remind me of a female Janeane Garafalo.

@derekahunter Your parent's basement or mine?

@AndrewBreitbart I'd like to sneak my gun south of your border & cause maximum carnage. Fast & furious, baby!

#19 Bolsheviks - Bolshoi - 'Big Party'
Mensheviks - Menshinstvo - 'Minority Party'

While the media is giving sympathetic coverage, I think the longer these mugs are on TV, Mr and Mrs Middle America will get disgusted with the dirty lot of them and their supporters. While most Americans are hunkering down, seeing their wages cut, taxes raised and are doing their best to put food on the table, these parasites are demanding free everything while producing nothing in return. That no longer flies with a shrinking pie.

So more TV coverage please for these dozens to hundreds of dopers that are disrupting traffic, creating a sanitation mess and causing thousands of extra police overtime. November 6, 2012 can't come soon enough.

#20 Wikipedia:
"Mensheviks", derived from the Russian word меньшинство (men'shinstvo, "minority"), whereas Lenin's adherents were known as "Bolsheviks", from bol'shinstvo ("majority").

Close but no cigar.

#21 Indeed, Scooter was noting some of the ironies, the one big theme is a protest of greed, while the demands are in themselves the definition of greed.

The definitions for catchy phrases is in constant flux, turns out to be a bit of a feature in some ways.

#22 "Rosy O'Donnell stops a stops a train."

I thought she stopped a clock, Dale.

Or maybe that's Helen Thomas....

The James O’Keefe Occupy Wall Street video is an instant classic. Loved how Woodstock Van Winkle instantly turned into Michael Milken the instant the thought of dollars penetrated his THC-brain barrier.

Idiocracy: The next generation. Great job, American universities. Providing the miseducation no one else will.

#27 Rosie O'Donnel would make a freight train take a dirt road.
There will be an "Occupy" demonstration here in East Tennessee Saturday in Johnson City. It's where East Tennessee State University is. I will be listening to Herman Cain speak in Rogersville.

#30 Funny but the way the Davis Bacon wages work in California, most of the union guys ARE middle class.

Who do they think is middle class anyway? Warren Buffett? I'm middle class and I'm fighting the same crap they are complaining about, tanked real estate values, unemployment, higher taxes, economic stagnation, etc., welcome to the world of the California Liberal paradise. The crap you clowns are complaining about came out of Sacramento from a dingbat democrat assembly and a looney left democratic congress with a Radical leftist President.
Don't these clowns read? Even with all of the misinformation being spewed by the MSM, anyone who reads or watches TV would know where the screws are being tightened.
I guess they get all of their news from DailyKos

#31 The sort of bloodbath this person is demanding:

1. Makes refusing to blind oneself to reality a capital offense.

2. Treats having the wrong ancestors as an unpardonable atrocity.

3. Encourages sadism and hatred of "them" in the people.

4. Ultimately makes the leaders incredibly paranoid.

Of course not. Silly Bill.
