While doing one of those annoying thank every senator and politician in the audience things before his speech in New Hampshire. Occupy activists in the audience reminds Obama that over 4,000 peaceful protesters have been arrested:
Remember, Obama isn’t arresting the lobbyists who are bribing politicians, or the Wall Street firms that crashed the economy. The people being arrested are the ones standing up to a corrupt system.
Classy response to OWS. He didn’t get all flustered and dumbfounded like Michelle Bachman or outraged and stupid like Karl Rove. I would expect that from President Obama. He’s presidential.
Wow. The US has turned into a nice little fascist state. Hitler would be proud.
Lee, I have to ask. What do you feel that Pres. Obama should do? I don’t think speaking out with no threat behind it (threat of martial law?) would do a thing to stop the police crackdowns.
I think it’s up to the people to demand that it stop.
People are letting the President know that they are frustrated.
