The Occupy Movement Scores More Annoyance in Oakland

Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.

Winston Churchill, commending the bravery, and victory of the Royal Air Force over the Nazi Luftwaffe in the summer of 1940.

If I were to swipe it and amend it to address the OWS ninnies, and I am about to do that, I'd say "Never in the field of human conflict were so many annoyed by so few".

Oakland gets more of the nonsense.

I can't recall a more media-driven nothing story than the "Occupy" story. Brainless twits who couldn't express themselves coherently, had absolutely no idea what they were actually protesting, and yet protested with so much vigor.

Not new, by the way. It's been around.

Peggy Maley: "What are you rebelling against, Johnny?"

Johnny Strabler: "Whaddaya got?"

The Wild One, 1953.

Incoherent rage, pushed by users of this sort of thing, and political enablers who test the winds of populism and set sail and policy in accordance. Constituents and taxpayers be damned.

UPDATED: Man, you cheerleader fans are strict. Ok, Pro Bowl babe, south of the fold.
