This is a hoot. If this is the bleeding edge and intellectual future of today's Left .... that is just sad.
Oh, and the girl with the Harvard shirt, I didn't understand anything she said because all I could think of is, wow - she's hot.
Oh, and if Doug wants to bring force in to the game ... feel free to lead from the front Doug. Start on URR's front lawn - or he can drag his little hob-nailed boots down South a few hours. Good luck with that.

don't send him down here, he'd last about 2.5 seconds and that's if he's lucky!
"One percenters" are running the government? Maybe Sal is right, a bunch of Harley-riding retirees!
Oh, yes, Doug would have a great time on my lawn. Hey, how come they aren't occupying some place in Anacostia?
<span>Nope, This guy is the bleeding edge and intellectual future of today's Left</span>

I can post videos of Tea Party people all day if you like.
I was at a conference (PhD residency) this last weekend where the plenary speaker was an absolute idoit speaking about heatlh care reform: said the rich should pay for all care for those who can't afford. I can handle his opinion (he is entitled to that), but what was sickening is the complete erroneous facts being spewed out of his mouth. This was at a conferece for future PhD students and he didn't even know what he was saying.
It is not that these people are talking, it is those idiots who were listening, and believing. THAT is what is scary.
Oh, and what really did that Harvard girl say - I too missed it ;)
How do you respond intelligently to such drivel? They can't even put sentences together. This is where the dependency on government begins because of an inability to even understand what they are saying.
What is scary is that the guy in the glassess and the trench coat believes in changing people by force - for all the libs who accussed Bush of being a Nazi, that is calling the kettle black right there.
Couple points after watching the first half (I was unable to watch second half as I need to go to work and cannot protest between coffee, getting my kid to school, and paying the evil greedy banks that enslaved me by loaning me a hundredsomething thousands for my mortgage so I could keep my kid out of the projects and a suitable progressive upbrinigng).
1) Aspiring perpetual students. These often end up as professors.
2) Anything that might impinge their right to get stoned is simply not tolerable and shall receive maximum protest.
3) The jackbutts that teach (indoctrinate) our kids should need to compete in the real world for 3 out of every 10 years to know what earning and providing stand for.
4) Some think that all problems can be solved by non-violence and this realiztion usually happens over coffee or aforementioned doobage.
5) She's hawt! As for what she said - can't deliver in a Hahvahd way even if she is hitting the Hahvahd bullet points.
Question for the old(er) timers: What it this upgefucht in the 60s / 70s ?
IK, I watched it just to see the hot Harvard chick. I didn't find her to be so hot. Maybe I ruined it because I actually turned the sound on. Maybe she would look better without the mindless drool running off her chin.
As we are all too aware - they vote. AND they reproduce. Of course, as the 2 lions say whilst gazing at the herd to select a snack- "aren't you just thankful there are so many stupid ones that think they can keep pressing the outer egde of the herd?"
This thingie makes one wonder at the quality and Good Sense of the faculty that is apparently educating these youngsters. Surely there must be a few bright folk with their feet on the ground who are aware of American Histiry ?
All I could think of was, "Wow, that douche in the sideburns goes to my alma mater?"
Sigh.
Slim pickins at GW, ladies. You can either select from among 50% of the frat boys, 75% of the baseball team, 90% of rugby team, or 100% of the NROTC boys (FY 04 figures). The rest of the male student body is flaming homosexual.
chase the weak gazelle......
After listening to multiple sound bites from these protesters over the past few days I still have no idea what there point is. But then I remind myself that these "kids" are products of "entitlement generation". How else can you explain a protest over having student loan debt? Harvard should be free, I guess. One can appreciate the passion but, please, direct it in a meaningful and constructive manner.

I'm familiar with this generation. Sigh. Some of them have finally pulled their heads out of their videogames and looked around and seen the usual inequities that go with any society since the dawn of man, the "arrogance of office" and the "proud man's contumely." And they rightfully see it is wrong. Their way to battle it is to make a statement and hold a piece of cardboard protesting the cost of tuition to private universities that they attend as they buy into the same system they're protesting. That age is a bit immune to the irony of their own actions.
Some will go on to get jobs and work in the real world and stop being naive, and will look back at their uninformed passion and will be a bit embarrassed in 15 years. The other half will be hiding in the ivory tower handing down said naivete and stupidity to a new generation like it's a golden relic.
I loved Harvard girl literally running away from the facts. She was smart enough to get the idea she didn't have all the facts, and she stopped talking on camera once she realized that. Like her hero Obama she's still blaming Bush and Halliburton for what is going on 3 years later.
Love the guy who wants to force people into "voluntary compliance." hahahaha. Best.one.of.the.day. One of Lenin's useful idiots in the making.
No one so sure of their rightness as a 20-year-old who has just discovered their "voice." Sadly the voices are all connected to brains that haven't been educated in history, the notion of subsidiarity, and commutative justice and authentic social justice. Nor do they understand how that pesky profit thing goes that they've been suckling on from their parents for two decades.
Again, some of them may be embarrassed about this stuff in a few years. But it will linger on the internet as a painful reminder. Long live the internet.
But I will say... as they play Hamlet in all this, would it be too much to hope that some of them, instead of "taking arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing, end them," instead might their "quietus make with a bare bodkin." Or at least get out of the way of traffic so others can make their own livings!
<span>But it will linger on the internet as a painful reminder. Long live the internet.</span>
You mean that communications infrastructure, invented by one of their patron saints AlGore, and originally funded by the very system against which they're protesting?
=-O
And sorry.. that's the "insolence of office..." not the arrogance. The kids are arrogant, but someday they will attain insolence too. Take a look at the new boss... same as the old boss... marching on the left is now marching on the right... and all that stuff.
Yup. As I was watching the clip, I was thinking that I'm so glad that I'm a conservative and get to hang out with conservative men instead of the guys at that rally.
They do vote, but I think that statistics show that conservatives reproduce quite a bit more liberals. As Mark Steyn says: "The future belongs to those who actually show up for it."
Surfcaster, one piece of good news is that the rallies in the Sixties used to get thousands of students out to scream and break windows and such. At Andrew's alma mater, the students used to roll into Berkeley and trash the place regularly. This demonstration got...what? About 20 or so protestors out?
When I was at UCLA, the faculty decided to relive their glorious youth by calling for a rally to protest the military response to 9/11. One hundred professors showed up, and were met by TWELVE students. Still makes me laugh to think about it.
I could put these dimwits in a room with a bunch of Third Classes and in two hours (tops), the young Sailors would have all of their money and the smart college kids would be doing all of the work.
I was GW NROTC guy (went to Maryland). Once while walking back to my car, I came across a human chain of GW students around a foreign sports car of considerable value (I think it was a Lamborghini if I remember correctly.) Anyway, the students were stopping the car from being towed from an illegal parking spot. I love the leftist elite.
it's a shame the draft won't come back soon enough for gen y.
Stu! What year? Who knew you were a fellow alumni! Are you part of the NROTC Alumni Association? If not, there is a Facebook page for it.
http://www.facebook.com/groups/175703395818226/
So...that's what a couple of years @ Harvard produces? Impressive!
Hey Stu, you used to be an Officer Candidate at GW, weren't you? I know who you are! We were at SWOS at the same time.......
No names, shipmate!
No, the Internet that was a child of Darpa (Arpanet) and BBN. Al couldn't spell BBN.
I don't think anyone forced them to attend college and accrue debt. They could have just as easily gone to a vocational school, or, heaven forbid, joined the military, and learned a trade that could have them earning a comfortable salary. No pity for them other than for their stupidity.
I'll paraphrase as one smarter 'n me once said: "If you are twenty and Republican, you have no heart and if you are fourty and a Democrat, then you have no brain." Now I don't always subscribe to the former but do appreciate the latter.
And the world of Phib brings people together while some in DC would think that it breaks people apart. :)
Cute, not hot. But, Phib, the old, retired, married, guy sees girls a bit different than he used to. It happens. :) Then again, he has mentioned girls he chased in college. Maybe this is regression. Now he just lusts for Colombian women when the Mrs. isn't looking. ;)
Sorry...not a SWO. :)
Not a facebook type either.
I'm a brown shoe. 91' grad.
You?
A Subway 6 footer or Pizza brings the twits out in droves!
Mr. Doug Weaksauce is more than welcome to venture out of downtown and visit PG County to come and play with those that eschew the corporate grind but, rather, are more than willing to redistribute wealth GW, that is a private college, yes? "Rich Whitey", you keep using that phrase, I do not think it means what you think it does.
Haavahd girl should be protesting the school, not the government. As of 2007, Havard had a $37 BILLION endowment, enough for it's entire undergrad body to attend for free indefinitely, if managed wisely....
I love how Doug says he would roll out the tanks in order to make the majority be able to live more comfortable lives. Would better cable be a good enough reason? Revolutionaries unite! DirectTV for everyone!
I don't think any of them expected that the interviewer would propose things further to the left than their own positions, but, with the facts on Obama's deployments, the Al-Alawki killing and proposing impeachment, he did. I especially found the "Harvard" girl's retreat humorous. I expect she isn't a Harvard girl, but likely at GW, since it is in walking distance.
Rebuttal, anyone?
Pay attention to the "national civilian police force" comments.
If they aren't to enforce voluntary compliance, in the jargon of the little cupcake in the trench coat, then what could they be for?
<span>Ahhhhh....the bliss of entitled youth.
These kids have 'no skin in the game' yet and can afford make off the cuff remarks about 'corporate this' and '99% that'. </span>
<span></span>
<span>I know many people who are struggling with student loans but they would not have the time or interest for these protests since they are working to actually pay bills. I'd like to think that they're the ones who had parents and mentors that actually taught them something worthwhile vice the 'intelligensia' (did I spell that right?) spewing garbage at most secondary schools that wouldn't have the talent to even clean up the mess made by these dirtbags. </span>

I am not sure if I have ever seen anyone as pretentious as Doug. Trenchcoat; scarf tied as ascot; ill advised haircut, and opting for sideburns, when he has no real sideburns to grow. Spouting fascist take the money from the wealthy by force, if at all possible, drivel. Force people to comply with his wishes. An evil little twirp.
The curious thing is, that with his ideas, and the way he looks, he reminds me of that world famous chicken farmer, Heinrich Himmler, who also looked ineffectual. The students of today are, alas, as demonstrated by Harvard Girl, stupid enough to buy into Doug's school of thought. Doug and his buddies will bear watching.
You see that Doug, here, is the ideal of the modern American male. The gay-sexual/metro-sexual man-girl, fiercely non-violent, except when people don't see it HIS way, and a laundry list as long as his bony little arm of just why he should not have to actually EARN any money.
But hey, a contravening opinion, or failure to nod in full agreement with his diatribe, and the role of the government becomes the enforcer of compliance. But only to his rules.
I would like to say that the disjointed, rambling anti-capitalist missive, which sounds like a combination of Pol Pot, Roseanne Barr, and the Unabomber (or Al Gore, take your pick), is unusual or uncommon. But it's not.
Higher education. Can it really make someone dumber?
I got that same vibe. Beria is what I felt.
Yes you have: The Nazi Kitty and his buddies!

then I guess I am totally mistaken.
2003 grad.
Did they even have airplanes back then? Or were you guys still operating hot air balloons?
They hadn't perfected flight then, AOD. Stop making fun of us old people or we'll make you sit in the corner.
;)
Well, he DOES want to take our pic a nic baskets away from us!
HA HA HA HA! I had forgotten that clip!
The only thing keeping these tools alive is this society they wish to overthrow. When things go Mad Max, they will be among the first casualties. The looks on their faces will gladden my flinty, obsidian black heart.
I'd tell Dougie to bring it, but he's not the type to get his hands dirty.
Rhetorical question, right?
Yeah, but nozzles such as these run the public schools.
Not enough hawt to overcome that level of weapons grade stooopid.
Amen, brother
While I toy with the idea of supporting a renewal of the draft, would you REALLY want any of these, umm, "people" watching your back in Afghanistan?
Butch, my sentiments exactly. She didn't realize for quite some time in the interview that the interviewer both knew more facts than she and didn't agree with her on the source of the problem. Can't remember which protester asked who the interviewer was with, so that they would know if he was for or against them. Unfortunately for them, as an independent, he wore no reasily identifiable label, so they ended up falling into his traps unexpectedly.
I found it interesting that those interviewed were all current students and that the one admitted that going to class was more important than "occupying" DC. Talk about committment to the revolution!
From a recent interview with Doug Casey, investment guru...and I am paraphrasing here...
"My time spent at Georgetown was a serious misallocation of my parents money."
I remember this crew from Berkeley, back when dinosaurs ruled the earth. The science and engineering folks never had time for such entertainments, it was pretty much confined to the College of Liberal Arts.
I remember too. Mrs. C-dore and I had our first apartment south of the Cal campus for 10 weeks in '71 while I attended DCA School on TI. Always made a point of going to and from school in uniform to see the reactions.
Don't these guys have mid-terms to go to? Or don't they do that anymore?
Grading and comparing to other students or to some objective standard is so fascist and bourgeois!
They are probably getting civics credits for this.
durng viet nam this bunch was usually espousing the cheapest way to get to canada.
trouble was they never went.
and couple of them canada wouldn't let in.
C
aha:
someone finally says in public that one of the most important, if not <span>the </span>most important, secondary duties of our military is to make citizens out of our nations children.

I liked the girl in the Harvard sweater.
I'm Already in debt! Well no sh*t maybe you shouldn't go to harvard then and just a tech school.
Or how about this STOP WHINING! Whiners get on my nerves...
BTW isnt their someone watching the scarf guy pretty sure he is a Nazi of some kind. He kinda reminds me of the insane killer frodo played in sin city.
In case you were wondering whether this would become a carefully orchestrated orgy of anti-capitalists, we now have organized labor in the mix.
Butch, painfully true and very depressing. That's one of the reasons that we already have a Catholic school tuition education fund going for our children.
NO this isnt organized this is revolution!!!
Behind all this my guesses:
DNC, George Soros, Communist/Socialist, Unions, Tranzies, etc......
Same old same old.
This may be the first public muster of the idots who have bought into the notion of class warfare and are taking to the streets to engage in it.
Previously it has mainly been fought in the election arena, or at least partisan political level.
These idiots are hopeless ill-informed, and prove that the left's domination of this country's education system (K-12 and higher ed both) is finally producing the useful idiots who believe their drivel.
The culmination of Comrade Obama's decades of "community organizing." And the end of prosperity and capitalism, if we allow them to win.
Nice base, TI, the club annex at the top of the hill was a great place to grab a beer.
Berkeley in '71 was rather "interesting". Funny thing, I was back there years later while on a ship based out of TI. The same folks that had been protesting in the 70s were still doing the same deal in the 80s. I didn't have the heart to tell them that vietnam was over.
I normally post as shadow, but for some reason the log in software has been hanging fire on my machine, so I guess I'm stuck with "guest".
