If this is indeed a serious question, the I believe it has something to do with the Tea Party claiming it to be their cause first. You speak of "Occupy Wall Street" as an organization with a national office, press relations department or media reps . . . things that the Tea Party has, but OWS doesn't. OWS also doesn't have close ties with any national media outlets. Lots of differences if you look closely.

It was a serious question and it has real meaning if you take the time to think about it. And, my premise appears to be correct. The OWS crowd had financial backing whereas Mr. Bundy appears to be cowboy - rancher. See Occupy Wall Street - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Not sure how the TeaParty got involved in your calculations or response other than certain members of that organization voiced support for the Bundy family. Those TP members were immediately labled as domestic terrorist by certain news media outlets, which is incredibly odd.

When I jumped into this thread, I commented about how those who work but stand up and disagree with the government are really attacked by that same government and most of the media but those who have their hand out and disagree with the government are somehow embraced.

Is Mr. Bundy that much of a bandido? 100-200 armed BLM security forces pointing their M-16s at this old guy? Really? There is truely a double standard in our media, and I have to suspect it's driven from the top down, starting at 1600 Penn. Ave.

Wowza ...

Was this on the main stream media outlets, e.g., CBS, NBC, ABC, et cet on the 5 or 11 oclock news ? If not, how could this not be news worthy ?

How pathetic can it get?

Probably not as pathetic as this attempt to draw him into this dispute.

Who cares? Just another group of malcontents that can't make it anywhere else.

Would it merit your attention if the root could be traced back to well-connected politicians having other used for that property that would net them millions?
Democrat crones capitalism at its finest.

Well, I aim to please. I care if a kid has a problem but when they throw tantrums, whatever they want is out of the window. Ask nicely and I will try to help. Scream and cry, you can do that till your face turns blue.

THE Tea Party has offices? I didn't know there was one Tea Party.

Where is its office?

DO NOT QUESTION or COMMENT --

You'll be labeled ... I have now personally seen the tactic. Those who dogpile on Larry should be ashamed right now.

You need to "ask" nicely for an opinion and / or permission to speak, and then maybe you will be granted the opportunity to say this or that but only as long it conforms to the agenda.

This is what I was trying to say before I bowed out of the thread. I believe that there is more to this than meets the eye and that the media will report. If the truth could come out I fully expect that there is something going on that is in someone's best interest for him to be off this land. If this is the case and it is legitimate, they should just come out and say it.

Now Harry Reid is calling this group "domestic terrorists." Really?
