I am a loyal conservative and sickened by what I am seeing coming from this administration.  I encourage my friends to read up on Obama's anti-American past and try to educate my people.  I have signed up for the Obama website - although I am not supporting him in ANY way - so I can see what the democrats are sending out to their constituency.  I recently received an email from MoveOn.org.  It was a letter encouraging me to start a movement in my home town of Southlake TX - a largely conservative township of affluent corporate executives.  Obviously I will not be spearheading any MOVEMENT other than to get him voted out of office!  But what concerns me is that I HAVE NOT SIGNED ON TO ANY OCCUPY WEBSITES or EMAIL lists.  Because the only list on that side of the isle that I have signed onto was the Obama supporter website, this tells me that the Occupy movement is coming DIRECTLY FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.  They have obviously given their email list to this group to promote protests.

We need to take action and expose Obama for encouraging this bad behavior.  These protesters are not doing anything positive for our country, on the contrary, they are costing us a forture in clean up.  Obama needs to take responsibility for what he is promoting and causing.  

Here is the email that I received:

Dear MoveOn member,

What happens next for the 99% movement is up to each of us. We can let it fade away, or we come together to bring it back bigger and stronger than ever this spring.

Right now, groups all over the country—inspired by the everyday heroes of Occupy Wall Street—are planning for a 99% Spring in America. It's an opportunity to build on last year's momentum with a massive campaign of bold nonviolent direct actions to confront the 1% nationwide.

That's why during the week of April 9-15, in small towns and big cities all across America, we're working with our allies to bring 100,000 people together for an unprecedented national movement-wide training on how—following in the footsteps of Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.—we can take nonviolent direct action this spring to challenge the 1%.

So far the response has been pretty amazing. More than 500 training events are already set up, and we've seen a huge surge of MoveOn members stepping up to host events—much more than anyone expected. But no one in Southlake has stepped up to coordinate a training. Can you sign up to host a local 99% Spring action training?

Yes! I'm interested in hosting a training during the week of April 9-15.

From the labor movement to the struggle for civil rights, we have an incredible shared history in America of everyday people using the power of nonviolent direct action to create change when our country needed it the most.

Last year the courage and moral clarity that we saw from the protests at the Capitol in Wisconsin to Occupy Wall Street followed in that tradition—and forced America to finally talk about economic inequality and just how badly our system is broken.

But we need a whole lot more of that kind of courageous action if we're going to create meaningful change. That's the vision for the 99% Spring, and it all starts with this massive, ambitious, plan to train 100,000 people in the theory and practice of nonviolent direct action.

Can you help by hosting a 99% Spring action training in Southlake?

Yes, I can host!

Anyone can host a training—you can have just a handful of people in your living room or you can find a local community center, place of worship, campus, or public space for a larger event. We'll follow up with all the details and provide the support and guidance you'll need to coordinate an event. We'll also help you connect and collaborate with other local 99% Spring volunteers and groups.

MoveOn members who want to see the 99% movement grow have already committed to coordinating events. But we don't have enough space yet to provide trainings to all 100,000 people. As 5 million progressives, we have a unique ability to help our movement hit that goal and grow even stronger.

Thanks for all you do.

Our movement is about to do something unprecedented: train 100,000 people over the course of just one week in nonviolent direct action. More than 500 trainings are already planned, but so far no one has volunteered to host a 99% Spring action training in Southlake. Can you host a training during the week of April 9-15?

  • Note: Moveon.org was created and funded by George Soros, this is what I understand, So I do not use this website anymore... You cannot trust it.

  • People like obama, pelosi, reid, feinstein, schumer, and all like them, who have proven they have the  "liberal disease" should be banned from ever holding public office, or from having anything to do with government- -at least in the USA!  They want socialism/communism, etc., deport them to where it is prevalent.

  • Oct 6, 2011 - Nancy Pelosi - During a press conference Thursday afternoon, House minority leader Nancy Pelosi praised those participating in the “Occupy Wall Street” protests. ”God bless them,” Pelosi said, “for their spontaneity. It’s independent … it’s young, it’s spontaneous, and it’s focused. And it’s going to be effective.”

    President Obama (10/6/11)
    Obviously I’ve heard of it. I’ve seen it on television. I think it expresses the frustrations that the American people feel that we had the biggest financial crisis since the great depression, huge collateral damage all throughout the country, all across main street. And yet you’re still seeing some of the same folks who acted irresponsibly trying fight efforts to crack down on abusive practices that got us into this problem in the first place. So yes I think people are frustrated and the protesters are giving voice to a more broad-based frustration about how our financial system works.

    I support the message to the establishment, whether it’s Wall Street or the poltical establishment and the rest that change has to happen. We cannot continue in a way that is not relevant to their lives. People are angry.

    Jan 5, 2012 Nancy Pelosi, House Democratic leader, first female Speaker of the House

    "The level of civic engagement we've seen from ordinary Americans in recent months has strengthened our democracy. Americans must come together to demand the change they want to see in their lives.

    Women have always been agents of change, or what I like to call 'magnificent disrupters.' They are unsatisfied with the status quo, and always demanding progress - on behalf of their children, their families and their communities."

    Oct 9, 20122 - "I support the message to the establishment, whether it's Wall Street or the political establishment and the rest, that change has to happen," said Pelosi in an exclusive interview with ABC News "This Week" anchor Christiane Amanpour. "We cannot continue in a way this is not relevant to their lives."

    I could go on, but you get the point - Duhhhh

  • THE OCCUPY MOVEMENT IS WHAT YOU CALL COMMUNITY ORGANIZING VIA HUSSAIN OBAMA.  EVERYONE CAN SEE THAT HUSSAIN OBAMA AND PELOSI ARE THE MAIN CONTRIBUTORS.  HEY, MAYBE THEY ARE THE NEW JOBS THAT WERE ADDED RECENTLY?  THEY GET PAID!

  • What OWS "fails" to recognize- -none of their actions, or demands, are in any way related to the preachings and desires of Dr. Martin Luther King!  OWS is sick, twisted and communistic- -just like "their leader" - -obama-soetoro!

  • The book Cowards says exactly this that George Soros gets very excited about the occupy movement and that Soros is the money behind it and Fidel O.That is why Obummer will never denounce this group.

  • If Obama and George Soros would stop funding these people, they would go home and forget politics. These people have got to be paid because what person has the money to leave home and go live in the park or the mall. Do they not have jobs, then where do they get money? My bet is George Soros and the Obama bunch.
