Denver counter-OWS demonstration fizzles out

"The one percent finally decides to take the chance to run a test-case counter-OWS demonstration in Denver.

Fake Website Tries to Stop Recall Walker Petitions

"A website posing as 'Occupy Madison' is seeking to undermine the petition drive in Wisconsin to recall Republican Gov. Scott Walker by claiming enough signatures have been gathered. In a November 27 blog entitled, 'Walker Recall a success, all necessary signatures collected,' the accompanying post says: 'The Committee to Recall Scott Walker and United Wisconsin have issued a report stating they have succeeded in collecting all necessary signatures... We are thankful for the efforts, [and] we are suspending all collection activity...'" This right-wing site is now defunct, and some people are worrying about being caught for the felonous activity therein.

Fake Occupy sites popping up everywhere

"Fraudulent profiteering confusion sites are popping up everywhere. These sites look like official sites, except they have .com endings rather than .org endings, and they all look much the same as each other..." Since this story, these sites still exist, but they look different now. Same fraud, different look. More http://99onlineproject.wordpress.com/2011/10/27/fake-occupy-sites

Did the Denver counter-GA make themselves the leader of the movement and 'officially' political in any official 'vision statements'? When did they publicly announce their counter-NGA would be, January 4th? /sarc off
