Huh. If you're occupying Wall Street, then The Won thinks you're expressing the frustrations of the American public.
On the other hand, if you're a member of the Tea Party, you're a barbarian SOB hobbit.
The difference, of course is that OWS is run by unions. More here.
From here, we see that about 36% of government workers are unionized, as are about 7% of private-sector workers. Total union membership is about 14 million people out of a US working population of about 140 million people. (Of course, The Won's disastrous policies have inspired an ongoing economic depression that may have changed these figures a bit, but since the Attorney General of the US can't remember shipping machine guns to Mexican narco-terrorists, I'll take these figures as good enough for government work.)
Small minority that they are, American unions are nonetheless a powerful shakedown mechanism for funding the Democrat party. This is why union-sponsored street theater will always have Democrat support.
In this case, however, something else is going on. Wall Street is fleeing The Won. The Chicago Way is not to let them go, but rather to send in thugs to make them see the light. This is why we're seeing protests, and this is why The Won approves.
UPDATE: Oh look! ACORN is in on the act. If you need to know what government services are available to help you start pimpin' underage Central American ho's, well, OWS looks like the place to be.
