My big problem with the "true believers" of the Occupy movement is that they were heavily inspired by the strongly anti-capitalist Canadian magazine "Adbusters."
The problem is that Grass-Roots common-sense-slash-moderate organizations aren't as sexy to the media as the radical tinfoil hats like the "Taxed Enough Already" Party and Occupy "Random Financial Sector."
And no matter how legitimate some of the claims of the Tea Party are, they're still tinfoil hats in how they go about acting on them.

them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.''
