A Snapshot of The Occupy Movement Discussion on Planet POV

Good work, funk and take a look at who they follow and their followers!

I saw that one Sue, and then I lost the way back to that page. Good job looking into this site by you and others and I would be very surprised if Mr. AmericanBallotBOX replies to any of our questions. I could be wrong and they are more than welcome to present their case here at PPOV.

Many if not most owners of sites use a privacy wall to protect themselves from spammers and scammers, but so do the spammers and scammers do also. My objection to the site is that they don’t have an about page sharing any information as who the represent or the purpose of their organization.
Even reading their “Proposals, Voting and Implementation Procedure” page, it’s hidden behind a wall of secrecy.

That said, that group you cited rings a bell about some ballot initiative in Cal that they helped organize, I could be completely mistaken.

Thanks Murph, their link has been posted many times, but it’s always useful to repost it.
And I don’t even understand this portion of their statement, never have.

We will stay here in our encampment in Liberty Plaza until President Obama responds to each of these demands.

PBO can respond to each and every one and some he has addressed and made changes on within his limited power of the Executive, but many if not most take congressional action and with a certain strain of the OWS movement pushing the “don’t vote” message instead of the #occupytheballotbox message, what is he supposed to do exactly?

Congress today can’t pass a resolution through both houses to “pass the salt” and that is due to people not voting in the 2010 midterms, as funk and KQ cited that included many young voters.
Change happens not just by voting, but s*it happens by not voting.

Khirad, Well, if it’s “Americas Balot Box, it looks like we have a clear winner by a landslide doesn’t it? That was what I also was seeing and this one only confirms my suspicions. It wouldn’t surprise me to find the Koch Brothers behind this site as a front for the “middle road” way of doing things.
Sums up my findings to a Tea with a capitol L.

I agree with you on this Murph and when looking at the site I see a lot of Donald Trump, Ron Paul, Fox and Glen Beck videos. I also notice that the their site neglects to have an “About” page or any background on/abut the site. I for one would find it very difficult to vote on many of the issues with their open-ended/bumper-sticker proposals and ‘ballot’ issues.
Until I know more, I remain very cautious.

The End of #Occupy? Or a Restart of New Economic Justice Movement?

Emerald, if you go to the #OWS GA site http://www.nycga.net/resources/declaration/ , on the right hand side you will see any number of activities and actions scheduled for today. They don’t seem to be slowing in any way, just a bump in the road. There had already been some discussion of leaving the park. partially, and moving indoors for the winter, what the Mayor did may have energized them more than damaged them.

Happy Veterans Day

Weekly Address: Honoring Our Veterans for Their Service and Sacrifice

President Obama speaks from the USS Carl Vinson in San Diego during Veterans Day and calls on all Americans to rededicate themselves to serving our brave men and women in uniform as well as they have served us.

j’avaz, FLIKR photos are troublesome. They have to be either public or converted to a publicly used format such as a .jpg or .ping before they can be shared.

LIVE BLOG: GOP Debate on CNBC – 5:00pm PST

The final take from the CNBC live blog:
By: Mark Koba
Senior Editor

http://www.cnbc.com/id/45120551

9:58 PM/ET: So the question for the pundits will be who won or lost. There was no clear loser, but if there’s a clear winner it may be Herman Cain, for now. In light of the allegations, he seemed to find support among Repubs and that’s going to help at least until something else happens. If he does falter, than Mitt Romney seems to have the heart as a second choice of this crowd.

HUH?

I was monitoring our twitter account when this one happened and wow, did they go wild. After the last 10 days of his denying the sexual harassment charges he comes out with this? “Princess Nancy”? Why didn’t he just say “that bitch Pelosi” and reinforce what many can see, his disrespect of women?

Romney has never flipped or flopped on women’s reproductive rights, right!

This is Mitt’s 2002 Planned Parenthood questionnaire.

If we had no corporate $ in politics & hand-counted paper ballots, GOP would lose 70-30 next year. #cnbcdebate

@PlanetPOV Huntsman worked for the guy who he thinks is not a leader? What does that say about Huntsman’s character or values?

She’s going to hold a presser tomorrow and tell Herman it’s wrong. 😆

Romney has a very tired, unimaginative “plan”; cut programs, cut spending, shove it all back to states so they can completely buckle.

Cain should not go there. Attacking another woman? “Princess Nancy?” Geez Mr. Cain, where’s your plan for health reform?
