Lol, I love the ‘fear based’ advertising. Its like an ad for anhome security system, excpet the bankers are playing the role of the sleeping family and OWS is the masked intruder.

[...] of the “untouchables.” However, I think that this lobbyist letter, posted today by Barry Ritholtz, is well worth any reader’s time. Spend 5 minutes perusing the letter – written [...]

Why a November 24th date on the letter?

very interesting, Barry. Do letters like this get made public often? It’s quite a fascinating look inside the mind of a lobbyist, and perhaps a perfect exhibit of exactly what many view as a main problem

The 1% still doesn’t get it. OWS does NOT have “well-funded backers”. Their actions are NOT being orchestrated by reclusive/secretive wealthy individuals. All someone has to do is look at the semi-chaotic behavior of the different groups to see that.
Wall Street persists in believing this because it is how THEY SPAWNED THE TEA PARTY. They cannot conceive of a true grassroot effort because they no longer have any “roots” in our real society and life.

What are the odds that this is covered by Fox?

Wow $850K for 2 months work on a plan for how to smear OWS. I think I am in the wrong profession. I think I am going to send the banksters a little solicitation letter from “DeDude, DuDette and DeTuch” offering them my services for a mere $575K. Why wouldn’t they hire me; I can play smack with the best of them, right?

Today is the 20th of November, the letter is dated the 24th. Is this real or a fake?
