that DU is on the right side of the issues.

Of course, the person conveniently overlooks the well-documented fact that Dems lost in 2010 because the voting public thought that they are TOO LIBERAL.

He also erroneously assumes that OWS is some reflection of Obama and not the entrenched and corrupt economic and political system that this country has been under for more than the last 30 years.

When someone starts in with the "Occupy was created because Obama is so ineffective," lameness I find it very helpful to ask three, sometimes four questions:

1) If this is true, why is there such a dearth of anti-Obama sentiment at the OWS rallies?
2) Why are so many of the president's strongest supporters participating in Occupy rallies?
3) If this is true, can you explain why Obama and many prominent Democrats have voiced very public SUPPORT of Occupy?
4) If this movement is about Obama, then why has it spread internationally? Do you think that protestors in Occupy Budapest are also protesting Obama?

There has never been anyone who touts the "OWS is protesting Obama" line that can INTELLIGENTLY answer these questions. And yet, I'm sure that I could get my entire head through the hole in a key chain before they'd admit that perhaps they are misunderstanding or misstating what Occupy is about.
