Rasmussen: 53% of GOPers view Tea Party as a plus, just 32% of Dems view Occupy as a positive

Wednesday, April 04, 2012

Of the Occupy movement, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said "God bless them." Elizabeth Warren, who is running for the Democratic nomination for the US Senate in Massachusetts, had this to say about the group: "I created much of the intellectual foundation for what they do. I support what they do."

They may want to take back those statements. In an article that is partially behind a pay-wall, Rasumussen Reports explains why. This is the headline on their site about their story: 53% of Republicans See Tea Party As Political Plus; 32% of Democrats Say Same of Occupy.

It's important to keep in mind that the legacy meeting has been knocking the Tea Party movement since its inception three years ago, while under-reporting and obscuring what I call occtrocities, which include nearly 7,000 arrests, 11 deaths, and numerous sexual assaults.

If the general public knew the real story behind the 'mostly peaceful' movement, its meager support would plummet.
