Default Van Jones group plans American’s “Arab Spring” revolt
Quote:
An Egypt-styled “Arab Spring,” which has put radicals in charge of the government, will be launched in the United States this spring with a war on “corporate power, Wall Street greed and the political corruption of the 1 percent,” according to the group headed by former Obama green aide Van Jones.

“They’re really not going to like the 99 percent Spring,” said Rebuild the Dream in an organizing email Friday.

Comparing the collection of protests last year that are symbolized by the 99 percent campaign and Occupy movement, to those of Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr., the group said that “we were all inspired by the protesters of the Arab Spring who stood up to totalitarian governments, and inspired the Occupy movement here in America.”

The plan for now is to hold protest training sessions around the nation next week. Over 900 are scheduled so far.

Once ready, the group and dozens of others, notably MoveOn.org and labor unions, will launch the “99 Percent Spring” offensive against government and financial centers.

This ought to be a very interesting summer. With the Martin/Zimmerman thing and now these bozos.

Most of the people I know were so disgusted with the OWS and anyone assiciated with them that I doubt this will help obama much if at all. In fact I think it could hurt him in the end since he supports them.

I would like the idea of Occupy to keep talking...I think that helps the Right a lot more than the Left....But I can't be for it strictly from a political standpoint because of all the crime and destruction that comes with it...

I like him too. Of course I pal around with terrorists when I'm not doing charity work.
