Who are the paid protesters? Who's paying them?

There was a report of advertisements on Craigs List some month or two ago offering $600 per week or per month. To answer your question, probably SEIU or Soros.

They have since taken down the ads and I doubt that many if any are currently getting any of this money.

Hey, MTUPower, could you please delete that "Fail" photo? That thing is disgusting. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate disgusting things as much as the next guy, but do we have to keep seeing it every time we scroll through this thread?

I'm guessing that you can also find reports that some of the protesters are from Mars.

In other words, you have no proof that any of them were or are paid. So why mention it? Speculation on your part isn't an answer.

Standing in line marking time, waiting for the welfare dime
'Cause they can't buy a job
The man in the silk suit hurries by as he catches the poor ladies' eyes
Just for fun he says "get a job"

That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
Ah, but don't you believe them

The text of that ad does not mention pay for protest. What a load.

Then perhaps they are taking, to heart, Mr. Bible's advice . . . getting a job.

BTW, one Craigslist ad is all the "conspiracy" folks have? weak sauce, indeed.

You know Larry, it's a rule that once a lie gets repeated on enough blogs and forwarded emails that it's not a lie anymore, right? It becomes, magically, THE TRUTH.

Sounds like a lobbyist position. You dislike lobbyists?

It must be written in the Liberal Manual somewhere that when you don't like what you see in print, you just call it a lie. It's a universal trait of private citizens on the left, and ALL politicians regardless of party.
