Occupy This.....
Robert Stephens, a downtrodden student at George Washington University School of Law, took to the streets to defend the honor of his parents. His sad tale documents how they are losing their home to "that Bank" [Ed Note: watch where he points, it seems to change].
But,
There is a problem with the lament of young Robert....it ain't true. Not a word of it.
From The Blaze:
Stephens — who identifies his personal political philosophy as Bolivian socialism — made a trip to New York City this weekend to participate in the “Days of Rage” march on Wall Street. He was arrested Saturday when he refused police requests to get up and out of the way of traffic in the street. [Ed Note: WTH is Bolivian Socialism?]
Oh it gets better...
Robert Stephens graduated from Carleton College (average cost: $42,942/year) in 2010 and now studies law at The George Washington University Law School (average cost: $70,449/year). His father has a Ph.D. and two master’s degrees; his mother also has a master’s degree. Only in America could a kid have been blessed with so much… and only in America could he still claim to be a victim. America’s capitalist society has apparently leveled a grave injustice against his family and Robert will not stand for it.
Trust, but verify. Let's call Mom.
The nail in this empty protest‘s coffin is a delightful phone conversation I just had with Robert’s mother, Marquita,.....
Go, read the whole thing. Expect to see a lot more of this theater of the absurd as teh Democrats circle the bowl heading in to the 2012 elections. These are desperate times....
