And the Lumpendoltetariat Follow

I did mention that the cul-de-dac communists leading the Occupy Wall Street protests sought to be the vanguard of the doltetariat and suck in useful idiots.

Well, check off a task on the to-do list:

Democrats are beginning to express support for the demonstrations, and Paul Krugman, the influential liberal columnist, suggests they could be the start of something big.The protesters have resisted issuing specific demands, but they have expressed anger at growing inequality and at the distorting influence of money--particularly money from the financial industry--on the political system.

What a bunch of idiots. Whether they will turn out to be useful is another issue altogether.

UPDATE: The credentialed idiots follow. As if revolutionaries won't put university professors up against the wall the first chance they get to prevent "intellectuals" from opposing them (or giving them less than an "A" in their college class).

It's funny. These elites really believe they have something in common with the street thugs other than their pot-hazed memories of the 1960s.
