Gov. Deval Patrick’s quietly planned trip to the Occupy Boston encampment yesterday gave the two-week-old demonstration its highest-profile visitor to date — and it renewed some protesters’ calls for Mayor Thomas M. Menino to walk among the tents and check out the scene for himself.
“I want him to come down. I want him to have a meeting on our site. So far, he hasn’t expressed interest in that,” said Gregg Housh, 34, of Malden, who said he helped arrange Patrick’s trip to the tent city. “I want (Menino) to meet the people who he did what he did to,” Housh said, referring to Tuesday morning’s arrest of 141 demonstrators.
Yup! Thats what democracy looks like. In the eyes of Idiots!
ReplyDeleteThe Emergency Committee for Israel, a Republican group, has become the latest to claim the “Occupy Wall Street” protest in lower Manhattan is anti-Semitic.
ReplyDeleteThe group has created a video advertisement that shows anti-Semitic signs at the protests. The video will air in a “substantial” buy in New York and Washington, D.C., according to Politico.
The ad says that Democratic party leaders are “turning a blind eye to anti-Semitic, anti-Israel attacks.”
