Bill O'Reilly Examines the Money Behind OWS

Bill O'Reilly in this Talking Points Memo on 5/22/2012 identifies the money and power behind the Occupy Wall Street movement. O'Reilly identifies long time left wing activist John Cavanagh, Director of the Institute for Policy Studies, which is is funded to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars by none other than George Soros through the Tides Foundation. Also SEIU, headed by leftist Mary Kay Henry provides free rent to OWS. Warning: viewers may want to stop the video at about 4:15 point before the inane Alan Combes chimes in.




Not mentioned by O'Reilly is Moveon.org. Here's a copy of the Moveon.org Occupy Spring training "Trainer's notes" booklet. The long list of radical organizations orchestrating OWS includes Van Jones and Rebuild the Dream, SEIU, AFL-CIO, Tides, New Organizing Institute, Movement Strategy Center, Jobs with Justice, UAW, National Peoples Action, Color of Change, UNITE HERE, Greenpeace, Institute for Policy Studies, PICO (IAF), Working Families Party, Rainforest Action Network, American Federation of Teachers, Leadership Center for the Common Good, UNITY, National Guestworker Alliance, International Brotherhood of the Teamsters, Pushback Network, Progressive Democtrats of America, Change to Win, Global Justice Alliance, Campaign Action Fund, ENGAGE, NDLON, Working Families, Presente.org, and POWER....just to name a few.

Any the MSM said the TEA Party movement was orchestrated. Amazing.

The New Axis of Evil Revisited

In November of 2010, I wrote about the New Axis of Evil. Upon reflection, I think it’s a pretty good list.

Here's my original list.

1. Old Media (ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, NPR, NY Times)
2. Engorged Public Unions (SEIU, NEA, AFSCME)
3. Global Socialist Elites (Robert McChesney, Andy Stern, George Soros)
4. Liberal “Think” Tanks (Media Matters, Center for American Progress, ThinkProgress)
5. America Hating Academics (Noam Chomsky, Paul Krugman )
6. Professional Victims Groups (La Raza, CAIR, NAACP, NOW)
7. Community Disorganizers & Activists (ACORN, Code Pink, ACLU)
8. Environmental Redistributionists (Greenpeace, EDF)
9. Social Justice Preachers (Jeremiah Wright, Reverend Jim Wallis)
10. Progressive Hollywood Elites (Oliver Stone, Sean Penn)
11. Bloated Federal Bureaucracy (DOE, DOA, TSA)
12. Public/Private Colluders (AARP, Government Motors, Goldman Sachs)

Not sure about the Goldman Sachs example, though. I included Goldman after learning how much they donated to Obama and the Democrats in 2008 and because of all of those Democratic Goldman Alumni in positions of power lording over us—former NJ Governor Jon Corzine being a prime example.

Liberals generally hate to use the word evil (except when talking about George Bush or the Tea Party). I discuss why the term evil is most apt in describing these leftists in my original article…

“Perhaps the most perverse characteristic of the new axis of evil is its disdain for the individual. Without exception, they seek to usurp power traditionally reserved for individuals in order to empower the state, which, of course, funds their mischief. This, I believe, gets us closer to why this band of misfits is not merely wrong, but evil. The Greek philosopher Plotinus described evil as the negation of the good. When individuals’ are allowed the freedom to make the crucial decisions that affect their own lives, and held responsible for these decisions, they have control over their own destiny, and this is the primary ingredient in living happy,  satisfying, and meaningful lives.”   [Read the full story here…]

Sodexo USA stands up to SEIU Thugs

After years of being harassed by the purple people beaters, one company has finally said ENOUGH. In a press release issued Thursday, Sodexo USA announced that the company has filed a civil lawsuit against the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) under the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act., accusing the union of engaging in an “illegal campaign of extortion.” Read the full story here.
