If the Tea Party and the Occupy Wall Street crowd are all the same, as countless liberal politicians, media talking heads, and late night comedians have been telling us, then where are the Union Thugs demanding that the OWS crowd be 'taken out'? Where are the politicians calling them astro-turf, and accusing them of trying to destroy America? Where are the accusations of racism, and the false claims of 'spitting' on black congressman?
The answer of course is that they aren't the same. The tea party are small government conservatives, and OWS crowd are envy driven socialists. The solution the Tea Party wants is greater economic liberty, and the OWS crowd want's higher taxes on the rich and more free stuff from government. the Tea Party have a deep understanding of history, especially where it concerns the American traditional of individual liberty and responsibility. The OWS crowd are as deluded and confused as any other 'off their meds' street people.
And since that's so, why is the tea party so universally vilified, while the hippies in the park are being treated as a movement worthy of increasingly obvious media respect?
I'm just sayin.

Tom, one of the odd moments of hypocrisy for me to see was when I saw the "protesters" cleaning the park themselves.
I almost expected to see UnionThugs(TM) with their inflatable Rat protesting that the protesters were taking Union jobs, I mean, assuming of course that the City of New York/park owner is using union labor to clean the park, I don't know, just an assumption.
