It was a plan the Koch Brothers probably thought would go off without a hitch. The Koch-funded group Americans For Prosperity (AFP)Ai??held a rally yesterday in New York City’s Rockefeller Plaza to “stand up to Occupy Wall Street extremists.”
But things didn’t turn out like AFP wanted them to. As the Guardian reports, Occupy protesters — armed to the teeth with satirical outfits and signs — showed up and ended up making up half of the crowd:
Almost half of the sparse crowd were Occupy Wall Street protesters, smartly dressed and bearing signs parodying Americans for Prosperity’s ultra-conservative message.
“My sign says: ‘I’m dreaming of a white president, just like the ones we used to have,'” said Stan Williams, a labour organiser and member of theAi??Occupy movement.
Watch a video interview with one Occupy protester who satirically identified himself as a member of “Americans For Inequality”:
If you look at what Obamna was able to get done it’s alot more than anyone would imagine. Remember this was a presidenty who has zero help getting alot of projects done with no votes from every single repoublican on every single thing. As Mitch McConnel said (( we cant let Obama ever look like he is winning anything), So no vote on jobs for americans, no vote for Vets ( these are the solidiers that put thier lives on the line every day for the fake wars they started. Now they want to destroy medicare and as Romney says were all moochers anyway even us hard working, family raising, tax paying americans. hmmmmmm I worked all my life and never only paid 14% tax like Romney paid on 20million in 2010.
I can’t believe the Followers of Koch Brothers, ‘Americans for Prosperity’ are stupid enough to think Koch is including them in the Prosperity, LOL
