It is known that : the honest is oppressed; take bribes ; as trample poor law; the poor are despised. Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time. If so, vote for the petition: http://wh.gov/jkl

I thought we were asking for support of actors as displayed in this post: http://occupywallst.org/forum/heres-a-great-way-to-get-the-word-out-on-the-march/

And we should listen to Danny Glover and other actors because they're good at reciting words smarter people wrote and pretending to by happy or sad.

Actors are not always acting just because they are actors... get your head out of your ass, they are human beings too. And so what if they do use their talent to better convey a message? It doesn't make the message wrong.

We're clearly being asked to listen to Danny Glover because he's Danny Glover, the famous actor. He's being raised above other human beings just because he's good in front of a camera. Enough with the celebrity worship.

Hmm.Sounds to me like you advocating discrimination based upon someone's popularity status. What, just because someone is popular they are automatically the enemy? That's ludicrous, and short-sighted, and sophomoric. and a main reason why very few take OWS seriously.

Don't know where you got that. My argument is that we shouldn't listen to famous actors because they are famous actors. If Danny Glover were, say, a math teacher, you wouldn't be posting a youtube clip of his speech.

@ raines-on-the-parade : No need to be so Self-deprecatory AND Simultaneously Self-Important ... just leave it to they rest of us to call YOU an UseLess Idiot .. Dolt !

@ raines-on-the parade : You obviously know little or nothing about Danny Glover's continued commitment to these causes over a long period of time.

Rather, being just another reactionary, right-wing nut-job - you expound prejudicially on things you know nothing about & bleat some unthinking negativity.

Even IF you don't know it yourself, You & your ilk are The Useful Idiots for The Koch. Bros. & their Corporate Kleptocrat Pals.

Double Dolt !!
