I was wondering what Nancy Pelosi's little darlings were up to these days.
Doing good and fighting the good fight.

Wait a second.. I feel a tear beginning to form in the corner of my eye...

What's really funny is how your precious hero bankers would never dream of forgiving your debt for pennies on the dollar but will gladly sell it to other bankers for chicken feed.

I doubt very much this was accomplished by the idiots that were walking around lower Manhattan
trying to shut down a business that would not allow them access to the rest room.
This was done by the financiers of the movement.One or more of the rich that these people
are supposed to be fighting against writes a bunch of checks to prop up the image of the OWS.

Yup, the cash came from the likes of george soros, exactly the type of people the owr's were supposed to hate.

Just one more example of how two faced, hypocritical, low life trash they all are.

But no one is buying this stunt. Libtards are being played like a cheap fiddle, but they're too stupid to figure it out.

This is something you would never see in a million years from the far right. Bravo to OWS!

For a year and a half, 80-year-old Kentucky resident Shirley Logsdon received repeated calls from a debt collection agency over an unpaid medical bill.

Then one day, out of the blue, she received a letter saying the $983 debt had been handled — purchased by Rolling Jubilee, a group linked to the Occupy Wall Street movement.

“I was dumbfounded but delighted, of course,” Logsdon, who is retired along with her husband of 62 years, told AFP.

“We got a letter saying that everything had been resolved — finally it is over, you don’t have to worry, you don’t owe us anything. (…) I didn’t know these people. It was a godsend.”

So what is Rolling Jubilee? The group is an outfit launched just a year ago by former Occupy Wall Street members now grouped under the nationwide Strike Debt collective.

“Together we can liberate debtors at random through a campaign of mutual support, good will and collective refusal,” it says on its website, rollingjubilee.org.

The idea? Buy up the personal debt of those who are struggling to fulfill their basic needs, like health care or housing.

For the New York-based group’s first anniversary, it announced this month that in one fell swoop it had bought up the equivalent of nearly $13.5 million in medical debt that some 2,693 people owed to hospitals and medical offices.

Where did the protesters against rich people get all that money?

Except that wasn't what they were doing.

In fact, many of the businesses in the area happily let the OWS protesters use their bathrooms.

Angry Residents, Businesses Protest Occupy Wall Street Protest

The movement has been going on for two months.


By Melissa Russo and Erika Tarantal

| Monday, Nov 14, 2011 | Updated 8:37 PM EST



Downtown residents and business owners angry that their neighborhood has been occupied for two months by the Wall Street demonstration staged a protest of the protest Monday, declaring that City Hall has let it get out of control.

Angry over all-day drumming, people urinating and defecating on the streets and verbal attacks from protesters, organizers rallied at City Hall Monday to send officials a message.

"They go to the bathroom in the garbage," said one local business owner. "They destroyed the stall, they broke one of our bathrooms. We gotta take all our customers now down into the downstairs bathroom."

"I'm just sick of people being harassed and pushed around by these people," said another protester wearing a white mask. "People are scared to come out. People are sick of seeing them. They're sick of them taking over the neighborhood, fighting with police."

Exasperated residents and businesses said they are "pursuing all options," including lawsuits against the city, the mayor and the private company that owns Zuccotti Plaza, the encampment headquarters.

Not the same thing, the guy that originally bought that RV still owes every penny. They will hound him to his grave for it just like they would have done to the old lady in the story.
