I Am The 99% And I Support #OccupyWallStreet

The Occupy Wall Street protests have been going on for 18 days now.  During the last 18 days, I’ve had people tell me the protesters are nothing but a bunch of marxist, communist, socialist, anarchists bent on destroying capitalism.  To them I say “Your corporate masters thank you for your support”.

Hank Williams Jr. | Racist, Ignoramus, Hero To @TeaPartyNation

By now everyone’s heard about the rambling, drunken idiocy that came from the mouth of admitted redneck Hank Williams, Jr., comparing Obama to Hitler and calling Obama and Biden “the enemy”.  The video is even more entertaining as it appears that he was pretty blitzed at the time.

Typical Brietbart stuff.  Videos below with the requisite warnings for...
