tea party/occupy

[351 power]

from a distance they have some real similarities. who can help me understand the underlying message from these 2 movements? interesting that left and right ends of the spectrum both protesting in this yr

Nothing similar about them with the exception, they are both made up of people.
If you have been watching any TEA PARTY groups you will see order, clean areas left behind and appreciation for the area they are in.
The clown and his group decided a while back to make the TEA PARTY look bad any way they could. They have the media to help, it is all contrived.
They fear the TEA PARTY.
The other group or occupy is a bunch of the clowns hoods to help him declare marshall law.

I have to agree there is a huge difference in those two groups.  First thing everyone notices is how they conduct themselves, treat property, and if they disrupt travel for other people.  I like the maturity and respect for other people and property the Tea Party has shown.  How people conduct themselves says it all.  The Tea Party people in this area left things cleaner than what they found it and disrupted nothing.  These other clowns don't care about what they wreck, and could care less if the road was blocked for hours and you had to pick your kid up from school.  People that act like that can't have anything good to offer anyone, they just think about themselves.

Absolute Polar Opposites.
 
The only thing that I have seen that some folks mistakingly think they have in common is their dislike of Bank Bailouts, but in reality they are different even there. The Tea Party don't believe in Gov. Bailouts period, where the Occupy clowns don't like bank bailouts but do want bailouts for themselves.
